Mission 3: "End of the Line"

[lucasbailey]

*Moments after the Windsor drops out of space another Sovereign class drops out of warp*

*it positions itself to protect the station*


OFF: Bringing in the big guns.....

[Taurik]

The U.S.S. Rivendell drops out of warp and joins the defense fleet.

[Will Karelia]

A large cubical vessel approached Deep Space Twelve at transwarp. All of a sudden, comm channels were alive with activity.

"Lieutenant, set phasers on a rotating frequency..."

"Target the Borg cube and stand by..."

"Rivendell, fall back to support position one..."

"Karelia to the fleet. We have it in visual range, a Borg cube on course zero, mark two-one-five. Speed, warp nine-point--"

And then the chilling, collective voice plays through on all vessels:

"We are the Borg. Lower your shields and surrender your ships. We will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own. Your culture will adapt to service us. You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile."

With that, the comm channel fell a deadly silent. One voice then pierced the silence with a single word:

"Fire."

[Julia Rellek]

Ensign, evasive action.

Lieutenant, load quantum torpedoes and fire at will.

Keep rotating the shield frequencies, they can adapt quickly.

**The Ticonderoga takes a damaging hit on the bow**

Damage Report!

Tactical- Sir, shields are down to 35%.

Reroute power from nonessetial systems.

=/\=Sickbay to bridge, we are beginning to take heavy casulties.=/\=

Ops officer- Mam, deck 8 is flooded with radiation.

Evacuate the deck and seal it off.  

**The Ticonderoga comes about preparing for another pass**

FIRE!

Lieutenant- Direct hit.

(OFF: I hope i didn't go to far. I got into it.)

(OFF: Since the station is gone, I will close and archive this topic.)

[lucasbailey]

OFF: To let you know, the tiberon is heading back, and will be able to 'help', or help evacuate if needed..

[Malcolm]

*The Tiberon drops out of warp and maneuvers in fron of the station from where it is believed the borg cube will appear*

=/\= Captain Malcolm to Fleet Admiral Karelia...We're back, we had a bit of an 'out of time' experience,i'll tell ya later...anyway, we are armed and ready....what info do you have on the approaching cube...i have sent a message to my friend Admiral Bailey of GreyWolf, and he has said he will send his Flag ship, the Nautilus, to aid us...=/\=

Karelia presses a button on the sub-console on his left side.

"Karelia to the fleet. Keep your weapons on a rotating frequency. Target the weapon and tractor emitters first. And good luck."

[Julia Rellek]

**The Ticonderoga takes it's next pass. Firing wildly it makes multiple hits across the hull. Then the cube fires at the Ticonderoga**

Ops officer- sir that was a direct hit.

Tactical officer- Mam, our shields ar down.
