HovVaj ACTION from Science Station: with your permission.....we could more finely tune the system....

Capt_Xendra ALT:I wonder where they are... these are the correct coordinates... right?

HovVaj "Perhaps we should search for life signs....not for the ships signature"

ELLION " i am however picking up ferengi trace elements"

Capt_Xendra Could they be cloaked?

NPC Adm_Merrck: "Ferengi?"

Capt_Xendra What were they doing here?

HovVaj "Ferengi, Ma'am.....but not the same signture..."

NPC RIKER " Xen, i think we'll have to sedate him"

HovVaj "the Raven is here....somewhere......but this is an awfully big somewhere..."

NPC Adm_Merrck: "I tried to, but the fronts were all awry. We couldn't have done anything else, I swear..."

ELLION " keep tracking that fed signature Ensign"

HovVaj "Captain....stated malfunction....2% worse than last reported...."

--- CUT SCENE --- TO THE USS GLORY WHERE DUFFY, XENDRA, COLE mAC AND sHAY ARE LOOKING FOR THE LOST TEAM

Capt_Xendra any news yet?

Major_Duffy " We have to formulate a plan of unknown measures.......this rescue must catch them all by surprise"

Mac_Hudson And above all, we must get my ship back.

Capt_Xendra yes... we cant forget that

CWO_Cole "I have equipment ready to go as soon as we are."

Major_Duffy " Sorry Mac...but your ship isnt a priority......Kyte and Xanatos are"

Mac_Hudson them too

CWO_Cole More important are our crew.... not some ship."

Capt_Xendra ACTION shakes head

PFC_O`Shay "If we could get in the ship, weīd be better off"

Mac_Hudson well, the ship will help with the crew. Cloaking device and all.

Major_Duffy " Relax COle...I am sure Mac was joking...at least I hope so........."

PFC_O`Shay "If we could get in the ship...or...if the ship could get out?"

Capt_Xendra These maybe borg... but they are different.There is no telling what they know about us.

CWO_Cole ACTION grumbles to himself as h reads sensor reports and absently scratches the left side of his neck

Major_Duffy " The thing is they know we will try and rescue them....we always have before.....thats our problem...predictabilty"

PFC_O`Shay "Yes, but always getting them out is what makes us the good guys, remember?"

PFC_O`Shay "They have Macīs ship, how close would we have to be to control it remotely?"

Mac_Hudson Being the good guys sure gets us shot at a lot.

Capt_Xendra and it makes for interesting logs...

PFC_O`Shay ACTION: looks at Mac..."Fortunately you have the reflexes for it"

Capt_Xendra Well I suppose that if we dont play hero that no one will

Major_Duffy " Good guys?...Yeah thats us I guess.......I just know I cant leave two of my closest friends in the grasp of some despot like Merrikus.... and I thought he was a pain as a human"

CWO_Cole "Any idea of the ayout ofone of these pyramids?"

Mac_Hudson Anywhere within hailing distance we could use the command overrides to control the ship.

PFC_O`Shay "How creatively is it configured? Anything on there that you know about that theyīd overlook or wouldnīt get?"

Capt_Xendra How much info were we able to collect?

Mac_Hudson Not that I know of.

PFC_O`Shay "Never mind, then...what else?"

Mac_Hudson If we could get close enough, we could use the ship to scan them from the inside

CWO_Cole "How close would we have to get?"

PFC_O`Shay "Youīd have to mask the scan"

Capt_Xendra Thats if we an Mac... and I am not sure how we could... they are more advanced

Mac_Hudson well, got any better ideas?

Major_Duffy " Too many ifs in this scenario......"

CWO_Cole ACTION checks sensor reports again

PFC_O`Shay "Aye sir, but options are limited. How to get within hailing distance then becomes the primary question"

PFC_O`Shay "can we make the Glory look like a borg ship on sensors?"

Capt_Xendra It would take some work... and if they scanned us we would be found out

Major_Duffy " That may be possible.....to what end though?...They would hail us...or try and communicate through the link....and we would be toast anyway"

CWO_Cole "Well,that wouldn't help much then."

Mac_Hudson well, there's always the old fashioned approach.

PFC_O`Shay "If the signatures are close enough, they wouldnīt need to, routine traffic there...lots of it I would think"

PFC_O`Shay "The Bonzai Ship? Yes, thatīs a classic"

Major_Duffy " I am thinking maybe Mac approaches Merrikus as an ally......lure him in"

PFC_O`Shay ACTION: looks at Mac..."youīd look good in implants"

Mac_Hudson An interesting idea Duffy, but is he really gonna accept me coming in on a Starfleet ship?

Mac_Hudson And I think you'll find my system doesn't accept implants, fake or otherwise.

Major_Duffy " You " steal" one of my shuttles......we bang it up for effects....."

CWO_Cole "I don't think trickery will work here."

Major_Duffy " C'mon Cole...if MErrikus has even half the ego of Hamilton...this should be cake...play on his vanity"

PFC_O`Shay "I donīt recall the Borg being intersted in cutting a lot of deals, either. What will Mac be offering him?"

Mac_Hudson That's why I suggested the old fashioned approach, Cole. Go in really fast, hit them really hard, take what we want well they're dazed, and then get the heck out of Dodge.

Major_Duffy " A full frontal assault eh Mac....I bet they wouldnt expect that either"

CWO_Cole "Except Mac.... our weapons don't hit them."

Mac_Hudson How about a warpcore breach? That'd hurt just about anyone.

CWO_Cole "They get blocked before impact."

PFC_O`Shay "Of the Glory?"

CWO_Cole "That's an idea.... get our people out and cause a breech. At the least it'll keep 'em bsy as we escpe."

Major_Duffy : Good point Mac....wanna sabotage the transwarp drive

Major_Duffy " We are not destroying this ship!"

PFC_O`Shay "Iīd prefer we didnīt, since Iīm on it!"

PFC_O`Shay "Breaching a borg transwarp core sounds pretty ambitious. Anyone know how?"

CWO_Cole "Of course not sir. i meant a breech on the pyramid."

Capt_Xendra Yes, anyone of these smaller fighters should do the trick.

Major_Duffy " Mac and I will attempt to sabotage their transwarp...just the two of us...if your agreeable to that Mac.........if that fails Xendra can do what she likes with this tub...cuz I will be dead and wont care"

Capt_Xendra That does'nt sound to hopeful

Mac_Hudson Works for me, as long as we're clear on the fact that MY ship doesn't go boom.

PFC_O`Shay "How are we going to get the two of you on board?"

CWO_Cole "And the rest will try to find Kyte and Xanatos?"

PFC_O`Shay "correction, how are we going to get all of us on board?"

Capt_Xendra Do any of the fighters have cloaks?

Major_Duffy " No Cole....Mac and I will go in alone...I dont want any more people lost under my command.....if we fail....you guys can comeup with another solution"

CWO_Cole "Hmmmmm, fly up on them unawares and beam the away teams aboard? Then the Glory moves to a safe distance?"

PFC_O`Shay "Itīs the īunawaresī part that worries me"

CWO_Cole "Uhhhh, the whole point of the mission is to save them. If you blow up the ship, they die."

Mac_Hudson well, we'll just have to take them OFF the ship

CWO_Cole "We need two groups sir. One: the sabatuers. Two: rescue party."

Major_Duffy " Cole...I will get Kyte and Xan out...you know me...and know what I will do to save them.....the less people involved the better chance we have of non-detection"

Capt_Xendra I agree with the Major

-- CUT SCENE -- THE RAVEN BEING FIRED UPON BY THE PYRAMID

Brian_Duffy " Your Warp drive on the other hand will actually have to be handled by someone else"

Cmdr_Sloane ACTION; gets out of the command chair and goes right up to Duffy and gets nose to nose with him .......

Lt_Xanatos NPC ENSIGN SWELL: "Sir!!! Scans show the ship is headed our direction..."

Cmdr_Sloane "You cross me again ... and I will KILL you myself ... am I being perfectly clear on that?"

Brian_Duffy " Yeah yeah whatever.......do you want me to fix it or not.......I do have other options ya know"

LT_WILDSTAR "sir i suggest we play a game of "chicken" with that other ship

Cmdr_Sloane "Yeah ... your other option is death ....."

Lt_Xanatos THE FAMILIAR VOICE IS HEARD ONCE AGAIN

Cmdr_Sloane "Lt Ono ... escort Mr. Duffy to Engineering ...."

Brian_Duffy " So is yours Mike....I aint afraid to die...I just dont want to"

LT_WILDSTAR "course 174 mark225

Cmdr_Sloane "Status of the cloak?"

Lt_Xanatos BORG PYRAMID FIRES AT THE RAVEN

Lt-Putnam "cloak is funtional,so far"

Brian_Duffy ACTION: Enters the Bridge

Cmdr_Sloane ACTION; nods to Duffy

Brian_Duffy " Mike the co-ordinates I gave you earlier are for the Lunar RIngs of Dravox VI......its an old hideawy of mine....we probably can get supplies there as well to fix your ship....and the Lunar rings screw up scanners.......I suggest we get there pronto"

Cmdr_Sloane "Status of the pyramid .... is she following?"

Brian_Duffy " I also adjusted your Cloak so it leaves no signature....when we get to Dravox.....I can outfit it better with some updated tech"
