“We are overmatched Captain.” He looked at the sensors, “Minimal damage to the target. Firing again.” Well he wasn’t going to give up the ship without emptying his chambers.

“Do whatever you need to, Commander, just keep them on their toes for now and give our ‘friends’ time to do whatever the hell it is they’re doing,” Past Ghubari replied with a steely voice.

“I’ll try to keep them at range… that should make it take a few extra moments to vaporize us.” R’han started an evasive sequence at maximum impulse that would look away from the planet. “It will eventually pull us out of transporter range of the planet.”

Current Ghubari utilized all her physical training and the opportunity available to her to grab that servo. Keeping low, she dropped to a knee, grabbed the servo with her hand and rolled away, all the while aware of the fact that the ship was about to be destroyed if something couldn’t be done. One hand holding her phaser, there other holding the servo, she tapped her commbadge with her fist to activate their special communications channel. =/\=Koraia to Orvos. We have the servo. Tell me you have a way to keep this ship in one piece or else it’s going to be a bunch of pieces again.=/\=

Looking over to the side, Current Ghubari was focused. “Stark, either of you. Secure Pierce!” Then she looked to Kaylee. “Kaylee, catch! If he moves, stun him again,” she said, tossing her phaser very adeptly to the diplomat.

Kaylee gave a nod, standing from there she was seated and caught the phaser deftly, spinning it in her hands. Her arms reached out and she trained the weapon on Pierce, her eyes full of determination.

The servo’s inbuilt security system kicked in again and Current Ghubari was stunned into oblivion and thrown unceremoniously into the Captain’s chair. Once again the servo fell free and skidded across the floor.

There was an ominous pause in the fire from the other ship. The Athena’s shields were shredded and the other ship was equally manoeuvrable and circling in for the kill.

Past Ghubari looked at the other Ghubari who was unconscious at her and Kaylee’s feet. “Well, shit,” she murmured. “No one touch that servo with your bare hands,” she called out as she crouched down to check her counterparts vitals. There was strange, weird and even insane elements to all of this, and heck, to most of her career, but gazing at a person who was ostensibly yourself and then making physical contact was beyond words.

Past Stark managed to crawl over to Nico, as he got closer he could hear the little fellow’s irregular heart beat and breathing. Present Stark got to his feet unsteadily and looked down at Pierce’s lifeless body. If the body so much as twitched he was going to kill it… again.

Suddenly a wave of life energy touched all of them except of course the by now dead Pierce. It felt like a wave of warm air engulfing each one of them and then warming them from within. With that warmth came a powerful burst of renewed energy and strength, as if they had all taken a 2 week vacation in a spa in the last 3 seconds and the fatigue, exhaustion and pain fell away from them like dust.

Laraan stood in the far corner of the bridge… next to Laraan. The right Laraan held the left Laraan’s hand in a death grip and their respective outer hands they held in front of them, palms facing the bridge, as if they gave a weird kind of mutual blessing.
Both had their eyes closed and both of their chests rose and descended fast, they were both in deep concentration, combining both of their channeling abilities to channel life energy to the crew. One Laraan usually needed to touch the recipient of the channel, but apparently both of them were able to amplify the effect in quite a powerful way.

Past Ghubari looked over at the two Laraans and smiled. “Right on time, Counsellors,” she said as she gazed down at Current Ghubari. She could feel the shift in her heartrate and knew she’d be okay.

The lifeless weight of the tree cat hit the ground sprawled out behind the helmsman’s console. There was not much more to be said about what had happened. What they had asked, and needed of Nico had been done. The other Nico, knew it, Ghubari knew it, but he was not gone, just this flesh separated from the collective.

Stark’s looked at Laraan’s and then looked at each other with such similar expressions that it was comical. “Now I know how Andorian’s feel” one of them quipped while the other stooped to attend to Nico relieved that the courageous feline was still with them.

“I know you are all having a moment, but we are about to be incinerated in a moment or two.”

R’han

=/\=Aye Captain. I have a way to keep the ship in one piece.=/\= he replied momentarily waiting for transport and considering that all avenues had been taken to ensure the ship was safe.

-Lt. Orvos Legen, CE

Past Ghubari looked over at her tactical offer and gave a grim smile. “Or maybe not” =/\=Understood, Lieutenant. Whatever you’re going to do I would suggest you do it very quickly!=/\= She was calm while her voice conveyed the urgency of their situation.

Kaylee kept her eyes and the phaser trained on Pierce and slowly walked over to where the servo lay on the deck, motionless. She gingerly reached out the tip of her boot to touch it, as if to see if it was still active.

-Kaylee Baxter

A communique came through to the bridge, not through the hidden channel. =/\=Legen to bridge. Maneuver for warp. We may yet still get out of here if we push the engines again.=/\=

-Lt. Orvos Legen, CE

=/\=On it, Lieutenant. Going to warp.=/\= Past Ghubari turned to the conn. “Helm, get us out of here. Warp 9.98, or whatever you can actually give me.”

Running was a tactically sound move at this juncture.

The CounterStrike vessel shuddered in space as it fired a volley different from what they had experienced up until now. Purple crackling energy flowed out from the ship in a continuous wave reaching out like a monsters maw to swallow the Athena whole…

Current Ghubari murmured as she opened her eyes to find herself gazing at, well, herself.

“You can thank the Counsellors later,” Past Ghubari said with a grim smile, helping her counterpart into a sitting position. “Otherwise I’d be worried about a likely concussion.”

Reaching out and grabbing the other woman’s hand, Current Ghubari got to her feet and exhaled. “Well that was misguided.”

“Orvos, yours of course, says he has a solution and we’re going to warp now.”

Current Ghubari didn’t voice the concern that her crew was still down on the planet, but first things were first and they had to keep the ship intact for anything to fixed.
