Mission 10: "Power of the Ancients"

[Morgan Freeman]

Morgan walks into engineering after a little R and R under the doctors orders.  

"Hello Mr. Jones, we haven't meet yet.  I am Commander Freeman, how do you like it on the Rivendell and what is going on at the moment?"

[Will Matthews]

Matthews waited on the bridge, at the ops station with the Ensign, as Starwind met with the Captain. He began to wonder if what they were looking for would turn up, if 'turn up' was even the right saying for what they were waiting for, he thought. He had started to check back and forth eagerly, hoping to be able to report success in findings. But now, the human quality of boredom was setting in. He had stood looking over the operations station readings with Travis for nearly half an hour.

[Taurik]

"Then it is a safe assumption that whatever is more important is worthy of our interest as well. Lieutenant, raise shields and bring weapons to full power. Helm, set a course for the Heraani ships and engage at standard impulse."

[Taurik]

Taurik leaned onto one arm of his chair, and pondered his current situation. "Commander," he asked, "are we getting any telemetry from the probe yet?"

[Dean Starwind]

*...Before Dean could state his disagreement with the captain leaving with the away team he had already entered the lift and left. He just gave a slight smirk and took the command chair...*

=A=Starwind to Freeman=A=
"I won't be able to make it down there to help out but I trust you to do your best."

[Taurik]

"We still need to get aboard that cruiser. Drop us off at the gravity lift, and we'll make our way to the ship's fighter bay. In the meantime, return to the Rivendell and get another assault team, and bring them onboard. By that time, we will have secured the fighter bay."

[Taurik]

As soon as the Heraani force had been dispatched, the team rounded a corner as a Heraani door slid away, to reveal a Heraani officer in crimson armor. The elite drew his blade, and spoke directly into the minds of the team.

"You have invaded our vessel. The master of the vessel wishes you destroyed. As his apprentice, his will is my command. Make your peace, you are about to die."

[Will Matthews]

"That sounds simple enough. Thats all I had to ask, sir".

[Indiana Jones]

Lt. Jones walks out of the room last and goes right to his post on the bridge, he was doing some last minute checks on the systems to hope and get them all worked out. He was planning on going to the medical bay later that day to get a full medical exam.

[Indiana Jones]

Jones had only nodded his head, he was more focused on keeping his eyes on the engineering section of the readouts, and making sure that his corrections were working to the best that they could in the distorting space of the Van'Gu Nebula.

[Taurik]

"Ensign Kassie is on leave while she attends Starfleet Academy."

[William Taylor]

Ensign Taylor continues to sweep with the sensors.

"What is it we're looking for Lieutenant?"

[T'lana]

=A=Kelata to Taurik=A=

"Acknowledged Captain."

=A=Kelata Out=A=

T'lana brought the Kelata's Gravimetric Engines up to 100%, the still cloaked Vulcan Stealth Ship was at Taurik's location in 10 seconds.

T'lana beamed Taurik and his team on board and let the Heraani have it with the Kelata's Meson Canons.

Each bolt of electromagnetic-ionized Meson particles attached themselves to the surrounding area and many of the Heraani themselves, causing their bodies to be crushed on the sub-atomic level by the gravimetric flux, as the Meson packets imploded.

T'lana looked back at the bereft assault team and raised her left eyebrow.

"Am I to assume Captain, that events did not go to plan?"

T'lana looked back at the helm and programmed the shuttle to return to orbit, with the gravimetric engines still at 100%, the Kelata came to a full stop ten seconds later.

"Orders Captain?"

[Orpheus]

"Captain, it must be the interference from the nebula. This is odd... they seem to have detected us as well, but have not turned to attack. As if something else were more important to them."

[Morgan Freeman]

=A= Engineering to bridge =A=
Aye sir, launching probe.  

The modified probe leaves the Rivendell heading towards a sensor contact.  
Picking up a vessel, the probe soon stops transmitting.

=A= Engineering to Bridge =A=
The probe picked up a vessel and stopped transmitting, I believe that it has been destroyed.
