“Good lord why does everyone think the past was so great,” Kate said looking at the ffty year old ship around her. “You know they didn’t have replicators now. That means I am only good until a coffee break is needed,” she laughed

Lt. Kate O’Neill

“A lapse in memory,” muttered Solark. He did not show it but he was embarrassed. He went to the wall comms and gave his response. He then moved quickly, turning back only once to say, “Let us proceed,” to Kate. They were on the same deck as the bridge.

As the doors slid open, Solark did not go in immediately, choosing rather to observe what was on the bridge.

Solark

The ships rocked again As sub commander T Paul got up from the captain seats for Solark to take the command chair. The comm beeped “ Wolf to Bridge torpedoes one and two ready to go and phase Cannons at the ready”

“Do we know who we are shooting at?” Kate asked walking to the console and bringing up the targeting display.

Lt. Kate O’Neill COS

“Hail the aggressor,” stated Solark as he moved to his chair, “Tell them to stand down or we will retaliate.”

Solark

The view screen showed 2 Xindi-Reptilian ships attacking. And alert at the tactical station notified the officer that Hull Plating was down to 80%. Hoshi Sato the Communications officer Said “Sir I don’t think they’re here to talk“

Ensign James Wolf (security)

“Evasive manoeuvres,” said Solark in a raised voice. “Fire at will.”

Solark

The crew Responded to his orders. The view screen show they Dodge some phaser fire barely. The NX-01 banked hard to port and fired a torpedo. It was a direct hit to the reptilian vessel they pulled back as the ship lost power. The Second ship continued firing. The ship rocked again with Damage reports coming in. “ Hull plating: Off Line, Britches on multiple decks and Injured in route to Sick bay”

Ensign James Wolf (Security)

“We will not survive another major hit,” Solark commented. He realised how fortunate he was that the lived in a time when shields were available. “Reverse thrusters but keep firing. Target torpedoes on their weapons.”

Solark

In the armory James had things working like a well oiled machine. He was watching the scanners and then he saw it. =^= Armory to the bridge there is a fluctuation in the reptilian vessel. If we send out a Small warp field burst that will collapse their shields and that will give us Chance to show of the few torpedoes down their throat’s =^= James was working on the warp burst if he gets the green light.

Ensign James Wolf (Security)

“Do it,” he said without betraying any emotion. The reversal of the thrusters shook his voice a little, more from the jerking of his body than from his emotion. Whilst he knew it was just a simulation and the safeties were engaged, that part of him that needed to be controlled by his logical mind was excited, fired up by his Vulcan physiology.

Solark

The NX-01 used the warp pulse and the reptilian vessels shields Collapsed in on itself causing major damage to the outer hole at this time armory fired off for torpedoes simultaneously Do you bind with a volley of phase cannon fire. As the NX vessel backed away secondary explosions were reported on the reptilian vessel soon it was nothing but a cloud a vapor.

=^= Simulation 63183 completed =^=

Captain score: 90 %

Armory Score 99%

James look over to solark “so what did you think about that”

Ensign James Wolf (Security)

“It was …” said Solark, “stimulating.” He arched an eyebrow and asked, “Does the Academy now include simulations of ancient ships in their curriculum as well?”

Solark

James looked at him “history of ships and an club I was part of” he said. “ they program is there to make it hard for you. But think about it this way if for some in your reason you were sent back in time and you may contact with an NX class ship You will understand most of the equipment and know how to use them”

Ensign James Wolf (Security)

“Would this new curriculum be an elective or an obligatory course?” asked Solark.

Solark

James looked at him and said “ it was an elective and using the old ships and past battle data we can see how Star fleet made improvements and why and how Other races made improvements in why”

Ensign James Wolf (Security)

The Vulcan turned to look at Wolf. “Whilst history is important in the study of science. As a scientist, I would not dwell too much into history but your remark about being sent back in time is something I would have to think about to see if I need to reconsider my position.”

Solark

“Well I think the simulation was perfect and a wonderful way to hone your skills in unpredictable situations. You did great Wolfe,” Kate nodded approvingly. “If you don’t mind I might snag this program as a training module in the future.”
