The ships proximity alarm sounded as a huge wave of an unknown energy surged towards the Atlantis.

In the Marine Barracks, the few soldiers of about five who were not off duty, watching the maden warp flight from the observation lounge readied themselves for the imminent collision. Weapons were being checked and combat gear accounted for before the call to brace, as the five Marines braced for impact there was no shouting or much coming from the stone-eyed, hard-skinned marines of the Atlantis. As the wave slammed into the ship, the barracks reverberated with the force of the blow. Equipment clattered against the walls, and bunk beds rocked on their foundations, a crate groaned as it fell cracking open onto the floor, and grenades rolled in all directions, the five marines cast a knowing look as the grenades provided them with an all to familiar death song, they whined getting louder giving the Marines only four seconds to scatter from the explosion as in turn of a few milliseconds the grenades exploded.

River had been in her office when the alarms rang. She had decided to use the down time to get on with a few admin bits she needed to do. And lord knew she hated admin. She had just finished her work when the ship jolted and then she eared the explosion.

Acting quickly River ran out of her office grabbing a fire extinguisher as went and headed for the area of the explosion. She’d deal with whoever stacked those crates later. But right now she had to check her men. She moved along the room putting fires out as he checked her Marines.

“Sound off.” she yelled as she hit her com =/\=Styxx to NE wraith get down her on the double we’ve got causalities=/\= she barked before closing the com and hitting it again “Lieut Styxx to engineering I need a damage and fire control team in marine country. We’ve had an explosion. Styxx to medical I’ve got men down. I need a medical team=/\=

Lieut Styxx (Marine OIC)

As like the rest of the ship the Marine OIC would receive no response to her communications, infact there were no COMMS at all.

River swore under her breath as she battled the fires and tried to check on her men. Eventually she manged and as she did she heard running foot steps she saw Freya and Wraith appeared in the room.

“I don’t know how you got here but I’m glade your here” she said she focused on the last fire. Wraith being a trained medic immediately snapped into action checking on the Marines and Freya grabbed another fire extinguisher.

“We were in the turbolift when the ship got rocked. We had to climb through the shaft” Freya said as she joined River.

After a while the comms crackled and a general message came through from the XO .. =^= All hands. Report in through your comm units - name, location, injuries and whether you are mobile =^=
- Jen, XO

River heard the XO and tuned to wraith. “Two dead three wounded one seriously” Wraith said. River nodded and slammed the wall. “How many more do you want to take” she said under her breath to no one in particular

=^= This is Styxx In marine country. I’ve got two dead, three wounded and a few small fires down here.=^= She said pausing for a moment =^= I got Wraith and Freya with me. We’re mobile but I don’t want to move my wounded. Can sickbay send someone down through the Jeffries tubes. That’s how Freya and Wraith got to me=^= she added simply.

<BUMP>

Several medical officer rushed onto the scene, “Where can we help?” Some, the younger ones stopped at the mess a little in shock themselves.

The Atlantis groaned and shuddered as if being gripped by an invisible force, its metal frame creaking and protesting under the strain. In the tense silence that ensued, the crew exchanged uneasy glances, their senses on high alert. The dim emergency lighting cast eerie shadows across the bridge, heightening the sense of foreboding that hung heavy in the air. With each groan and shudder of the ship, the feeling of unease intensified, as if the very fabric of reality itself were being warped.

As the mysterious force continued to press against the Atlantis, its systems flickered and faltered before settling again. But the silence was shattered by the unmistakable sound of metal scraping against metal, emanating from the outer edge of the ship’s hull. Whatever was out there, whatever unseen entity was attaching itself to their vessel.

Freya growled and swore in her native tounge.

“You got that right.” Wraith said as she treated the wounded marines.

OOC: A chance to use some NE’s here ..
IC:

=^= Jen to Marines. I need you to form two squads out of whoever is most mobile. We have a report of an object on the hull. Deck 29 sections 12 to 14 roughly. Engineering is going by sound. I need you to find it and secure the area in case of a breach. Outfit with tactical tricorders. Identify what you can. Report back. Note this accident is the result of the warp experiment gone bad. It was not an attack. Note too that a Romulan ship was detected moments before we were hit. They were hit bad too. Initial orders: Secure the area. Detect the cause. Contain any intruders. =^=

“Acknowledged I’ll send one down the corridor and take the other hull side.=^= River reported as she let Wraith guide the medical teams before nodding to her and Freya to grab their gear =^= Do you want me to send a team over to the Romulan ship to assist?=^= she asked after a short pause.

• Jen, XO

NE Marine Roger’s was lucky to have not been involved in the explosion, it wasn’t his place to inform the XO of the large loss of life but it was his to obey their orders. Rogers along with another group of marines all quickly grabbed their gear and headed deck 29 wondering if any of their leadership would be there.

As Rogers and his group head out of marine country he was stopped by Freya standing in the middle of the corridor arms crossed. She wore her combat Armor a stripped dpown version of th satnadrd marine armour, with a few notable exceptions. A set of brass knuckles added to her combat gloves and a large knifer maglocked to her left hip. “Where the hell are you going?” she sapped. To many Freya seemed abrasive, angry and very aggressive. She and earned the name of River’s attack dog, which was so wrong as she was a cat and because River never used her to attack anything but her enemies. Her attitude had eared er a long list of offences but if you had served with her long enough you realised that was what her people where like. It was a by product of being the ancient genetic experiments of a founding nation of the federation. The Caitians.

“The boss ain’t given her orders yet, she’s only just finished sorting out are wounded. Something you didn’t help with.” She said coldly eyes narrowing “You stay right there” she added.

“Freya” Came a sharp voice. It was River she was flanked by three other marines all in armour, Wraith the Orion medic had a large medical symbol on her left arm and several tally marks in her armour. A count of every life she had saved. Next to her stood tech, the wires and cables form the liberate Borg Bajoran’s vast array of tech sticking out from his helmet. and finally Ti’li the half Vulcan half Romulan sniper. she had her helmet on and stood as silently as she always did. River’s armour was scuffed scared and battered rom her years of combat like all the marines with her. But hers had seem more than any other, a series of Klingon, Romulan and alien scripture etched into parts of the armour and an ancient sword latched to her back. Each one of t he marine had a marking on there armour in common two rifles crossed surrounded by a crown of thorns. A mark of River’s elite, Freya also had this symbol on her armour. It became noticeable as she uncrossed her arms and stood more formally.

River had her helmet under her arm and locked eyes with Rogers “Rogers while I apricate and applaud your enthusiasm in need you here. To assist Regimental Sargent Major Qrow in his investigation into what happed here. You’re the only one who was in the room to walk way unscathed.” she said simply turning to the group of marines.

“Sergeant Androv. I want you to pick three Marines from this group and take them with you. to deck 29 section 14. Secure the area and take Tac with you” she said as a large Klingon man with the same emblem as River on his armour walked from behind her. “I’m going to take Freya, Wraith, Tech and Ti’li out onto the hull so we can get a better look at what we’re dealing with.” she added giving her orders in a clam and confidant manner. “the rest of you standby and get ready in case things get rough.” she ordered as she headed for her destination.
