“That’s ok Mr. Grey....You can give me the remote control and I can detonate the damn thing from inside their ship. I’ll just play it off, if they find the remote, that it is a way to teleport me back to my ship and all I or they if they have control of it, is to just press that button there.” He smiled at that. “Anyway then just push the torpedoes out the door and let it drift next to them. Give it about 10 minutes and push another one out. Do that three times and hopefully the first explosion will daisy chain them all and they all will go up along with those bastards. Then by the time reinforcements come you all should have the ship in working order to at least impulse your way out of here. Make it so Mr. Grey and recruit anyone that you need and tell them it’s an order from me.”

“I do not believe that any violence is necessary. They may just be peaceful.” Nack said quietly. He then put his phaser down and sighed.

Ensign Nack al Dul Sci

Chris shot the Ensign a stern look then quickly relaxed his gaze. “Ensign al Dul is it? I hope you’re correct in your assumption but you heard it straight from the horses mouth about surrendering. And I hope you heard what I said just said about defending yourselves. So pick up your phaser and defend yourself even and if the time comes. Right now it is just me doing the surrendering. I expect you to fight for your lives if you have to. Or is it that you can’t? This is the second time you mentioned something about being peaceful since you’ve been on the bridge. Are you capable of acts of violence Mr. al Dul? Because if not you picked the wrong ship to be on. This is a battle cruiser not a diplomatic ship. If we get through this and you want a transfer then I’ll help you. But if you want to stay then there’ll be things t that you might not want to do but have to. Is that clear?”

He got the knife from an NE that bright it over to him and was listening for a reply from Ensign al Dul while he was hiding it inside his cybernetic leg. It was a nice 12 Inch combat knife with rubber grips and antimagnetic so as not interfere with his leg.

“Sir,” Mwezi slipped over to stand next to the XO once more. “I would like to accompany you to the Alien vessel,” he requested. “On your own you are vulnerable. It is my duty to protect you and this ship, and as my fellow officers protect the ship, it falls to one of us to protect you,” he spoke.

Mwezi
Sec.

Chris smiled at him as he finished hiding the knife. “Thank you Mwezi. I thought your job was to protect the Captain? But I could use you over there. But I want you to understand one thing and I actually want you to think and consider it before you reply.”

“The captain is currently safe in sickbay, and you are the commanding officer as far as theses aliens are concerned,” the alien officer spoke, tilting his head slightly.

Once he replied he went on. “This may very well be a suicide mission. I’ve come to terms that I will most likely not come back. I’m even taking a remote detonator with me. I’m willing to sacrifice myself for the good of the ship. That’s my duty. Are you cool with that?”

Commander Chris Taggart XO

“My hope is to prevent the necessity of such a turn of events,” Mwezi said softly. “My hope is that this is simply a misunderstanding and these aliens are not hostile…” he added, glancing to see the CSO approaching.

William had a final look of defeat as he walked to the commander, gently grabbed his arm and whispered “A word, sir, in Private” He said with a rushed tone before walking to the Conference room and waiting.

CSO

“Sure thing. Ensign Mwezi you have the conn whine I’m away.” He got up and followed the CSO.

OOC: Make a new thread sir.
XO

“Understood,” the security officer spoke, sitting gingerly on the center chair. “Um… hold course,” he said with a slight smile to the navigator, who gave him an almost salty look.

Mwezi

OOC: Stone is still present on the bridge, sorry for being so quiet.

IC:

Stone was doing some calculations on her own. Trouble with manualy launching torpedoes was targeting. By her calculations they might just fit one torpedo into a shuttle, prime it to explode and sacrifice the shuttle to detonate it. It was quite risky, as there was no telling if the teleporters could mantain lock on the pilots. It would be another suicide run. Also they would no doubt only get one or two attempts at best. It was all she could think of, and ordered two shuttles to be prepaired just in case.

She aproached Mwezi. “I’ll have a security team positioned right next to the airlocks. If there’s trouble quick at least backup won’t be far away. Once inside the alien ship though, you’ll be on your own.”

Lt. Andrea Stone, COS

After a short conversation with the Commander, William left the briefing room and joined the Bridge Crew “Lieutenant Stone, we’re going to need the torpedo technicians to transfer two Photons to the shuttlebay and Rig them to take a signal from a standard issue Tricorder, now I’ve been talking with them for the past hour but I’m no weapons specialist, I’m going to need your input on this” He moved to his station after grabbing two Tricorders “Ensign Al Dul, please check our sensor readings of the incoming Aliens” He said to his Junior officer whilst simultaneously wondering what he was doing on the bridge. When Lieutenant Stone approached him he said quietly “When the Commander leaves you’re going to have the Conn, you think you’re ready?”
