<snip>“Well, so much for containment,” Johnson muttered to himself as he saw the forcefield go down. A nearby blot blast caused Johnson to duck for cover again. He was not close enough to the other officers to hear what they were saying, although he assumed comms were still operational. The problem was they needed a plan. Give enough time for Hyde and Ang to do what they needed to do, while protecting both Earth from these aliens, and his ship from becoming collateral damage. Keeping the Drachin fighting each other was causing too much secondary damage to the ship. They needed more help.
=/\= Johnson to the Bridge. We need a way to contain these creatures for a longer period of time. Have you found any clue from the sensor readings? =/\=
-Captain Johnson, CO
“How can we help?” Cain asked as he came forward.

As the crew regrouped the two Drachin were at odds. One, the smaller one that had nearly been defeated earlier by the larger, was intent to keep on with its fight. The other, seeming to realize a problem with Hyde and Ang going through, was struggling to get past it to where the glowing circle of the temporal portal sat. One moment the larger pushed the smaller away and moved on to get to the portal.
Mostly there it was suddenly tackled by the smaller in a shower of energy. They rolled off to the side to tumble against a shuttle. “Alyss looked at the fight and pulled out her phaser. In the dim light she waved it at the security group there. “Unless you have other ideas,” she said, and fired at them - energy meeting energy and sending out a discharge that lit up the shuttle.

A reply came back from the bridge to the Captain:
=^=Captain, what are your thoughts on venting the shuttle bay into space? You and the rest of our crew would need to evacuate first of course.=^=
Johnson looked over at Alyss and the security team firing at the battling Drachin, which seemed to be causing more collateral damage without much change to the Drachin themselves… He thought sadly about his former security officer possessed by one of them, but now fully consumed that there probably was nothing left. There didn’t seem to any other options if Endeavour was going to survive long enough to deal with the Drachin.
=/\= Alert Starfleet Command of the change in plans, and give us a bit of distance from Earth. I’m not going to risk these things getting a banquet with Earth’s population. Let me know when Endeavour is in position. =/\=
Johnson then tapped his communicator again. =/\= Johnson to Security. Keep the Drachin distracted until I give the signal to evacuate the shuttle bay. =/\=

Cadet Polis acknowledged the Captain’s orders with a nod. Keeping his head low he glanced around the shuttlebay again. In the far side of the room was a type 15 class shuttlepod. It was one of the smaller classes of shuttlecraft generally used for short transport missions or exterior ship maintenance. This gave him an idea. He looked back over towards the Captain and tapped his com badge =/\= Captain, if we can separate that security officer away from the Drachin when they get blown into space, do you think Medical can do anything for him? I have an idea but its a little crazy. =/\=

Cain looked over at Polis, he was curious to see where he was going with this as he ducked behind the cover. Aiming he fired a few shots but kept his head down till he heard more from the Captain.

The smaller of the Drachin was thrown aside as a sustained phaser blast struck the larger. It stood up to it but gave way, trying to resist the energy.
However, the smaller of the two seemed to refocus and began moving, if slower, toward the Captain. It stretched out an arm that threw out a series of bolts of energy toward him …

Cadet Polis looked over towards the Captain and seen him duck for cover. “He has enough on his mind right now” thought Polis, “If my idea is going to work I’m going to need to do something right now”.
Polis made a dash for the shuttlepod, keeping low. I bolt of energy shot just over his head as he slid across the last few feet of the floor and took cover behind the the shuttlepod. He tapped the control panel and the door opened. The door was facing away from the battle and the cockpit facing the alien lifeforms. Just that bit of luck he needed as he stepped inside closing the door behind.
Polis sat low in the pilot chair and powered up the controls. He kept low in the cockpit trying not to draw attention. He still needed a few minutes. He powered up the pods magnetic docking controls securing the pod to the shuttlebay floor. This wasn’t generally done within the ship but outside to secure the pod to a ship while the crew conducted a spacewalk. But it was needed now. It was a shame this was only a maintenance shuttlepod, he thought. Phasers wouldn’t go amiss right now but Polis worked with what he had and tapped several other buttons on the display getting ready for his plan.
He tapped his communicator. “Captain, if you can hear me, get everyone out now. I need a 5 second countdown to the shuttlebay being decompressed.” Now all Polis could do was wait.Cadet Polis, Security
Polis found that he didn’t have much to work with. This shuttle would be a engineer’s toy for a while to get it back to snuff. Power levels were only at 22% and he would have trouble piloting it but the ship was still intact even if the only real LCARS console he was working on was flickering. It might be touch and go …
Meanwhile inside, Aliss tried to keep the phaser on the creature. The trouble was that as it weakened it became more indistinct and she couldn’t get a very good bead on it in the darkness. She missed more than struck it. The second, smaller one, was nowhere to be seen.
