Star Trek: Frontiers.

Ens. Onyx

The turbolift doors opened with a hiss and Ens. Onyx found herself almost running towards her station.

As she stood at her station, Ens. Onyx looked towards the main viewer, an the slightest twinge of fright was seen in her eyes. Fresh out of the Academy, she never thought she would have a run in with the Borg. She has thought that they where all distroyed a long time ago.

It took a moment before she recomposed herself, and consentrated on the task at hand, finding a shield mogulation that the borg didn't know about yet.
 
Lt. Denoitnem:

The shuttlebay doors open with a whoosh and I approach the console at the side of the room.

I look down to the four shuttlecraft in the bay. They resemble the Delta Flyer in their design. Star Fleet was quick to assimilate the information from Voyager ship. Uh huh... just what I thought. Back out of the shuttlebay I run toward holodeck 2. Once there, I begin to work on a holoimaging device. With the specifications in the computer, I have it replicated.

"Transporter room!" I signal through my comm badge.
"Emergency transport from holodeck 2 to the main shuttlebay"
"Of course I have the Captain's permission," I lie as I place my comm badge on the large emmiter.

I run back to the shuttle bay, glad to see that the engineer at the transporters obeyed. I retrieve my comm badge and use the macinery in the shuttle bay to move the holo emmiter into the old shuttlecraft.

Testing the functionality, I grin with pleasure at the job well done.

"Captain!" I explode into the comm badge, " I have a solution for dealing with the Borg."
 
OOC: You guys can play out whatever you're doing or if you come to the shuttlebay... I'll be at work until 9pm, but will inform the captain of my plan at once when I return. ciao for now.

"Steady... steady..." Mike said mockingly to himself. He didn't care about the borg or the alien. He knew himself to be the best pilot in the galaxy, and he knew this ship to be tough enough to take out the borg. THat much he'll give it. If anything, this was practice, to see just what he could do with the ship. if he's stuck out here for awhile, he might as well have some fun with it.

His hands were rock steady. his eyes calm and even half closed. His 2 index fingers slowly creeped their way foward on the pad, moving the ship foward at a steady pace. A few minutes ago he switced to the manual control, just to save time. He may have not liked this ship, it's crew, or location, but he much prefered it to being a drone. "comeone man..." he whispered to himself. "Give me the word so I can let loose..."
 
Ooc: Is it me, or is this just too easy? As a great chef once said, let's kick it up another notch... hee hee

Argos quickly compiled the right correctional funstions. What would it take to open a supspace rift? What he needed was a sup particle accelerator torpedo to explode right at the corner entrance. From what he got out of his calculations, it will open a partial hole on the rift and they can travel safely through it.
He guessed they would be transported back to the home world of the alien. He wasn't quite sure, it might be like going through a door... or like going up a slide.
Either way, it was better than placing war on a borg cube.
Something rocked the ship. It wasn't an explosion, more like a spacial anomaly. Argos looked at the screen in shock.
The rift was opening by itself. No, no it wasn't. Something was coming out. Two somethings if his readout was correct.
Another borg cube, and a borg sphere glided through the rift, surrounding the pod. In a brilliance of light, the pod was off the screen.
The spacial rift closed again. He looked at the scans, forgetting for the moment that they were about to die. It did close by itself.
Maybe, if everyone else pulled it together they could at least sneak by the borg and use the rift.
By the time they were on the other side, he was sure he could find a way to close it forever. Again, that wasn't what he was thinking right now.
Sup particle accelerator on a torpedo. He began making the modulations to fit this calculations. It only tok a minute for the parts to all download into the torpedo. He waited carefully, unsure of what to do next.
Besides surrender that is.
 
Denoitnem:

Hoping that the captain hurries, I continue to run tests on the shuttlecraft. Convinced of the functionality, I push the large red button (ooh).

The computer voice beckons, "Intruder alert... intruder alert!"

As the computer scolds me, I look at the perfect costume for the shuttlecraft.

Just then, a security team runs through the opening doors, phasor rifles pointing in all directions.

"It's okay guys. This is just a holographic projection."

They lower their weapons (partially) and study the alien ship. I am proud of my perfect representation of the Speces 8472 Biomass ship.
 
Telnak looked at the screen and then her sensors in utter disbelief. What just happened? The pod, the cube and the sphere- how did they get here and where did they just go?! she thought to herself. She looked over at Captain Emerson and was about to say something but she then saw the same shocked look on his face. She looked at her sensors again and saw that there was now nothing there except for the cube that had been there. There was no sign of the cube and the sphere that had come through the rift or the second pod.

For once she didn't know what to do, she knew that she had to do something but she had no idea of what. If the Borg now had the means to move through space in the blink of an eye there was no way of stopping them. There was only one thing to do- stop them by any means possible and if that meant destroying every cube in the known galaxy then that is what they must do.

Telnak looked down at her sensors array and locked on the phasers to every spot on the cube in front of them, knowing that the Borg would be alerted by this but hoping that they would think it was a futile gesture.
 
Savok noticed Telnak's phaser locking sequence in motion. He entered some coordinates into his station, uplinking them to the tactical station.

"I would concentrate phaser fire on this location," he said. "All Borg cubes have a tertiary power junction here." Savok had intensely studied the Borg on his prior posting. He knew their defenses, offenses, and their order of battle. What he did not know about was their control of quantuum singularities. He was as surprized as everyone else when they suddenly appeared enmass. He rechecked his sensors. There had been no warning of a transwarp conduit opening.

Scientifically, the quantuum rift would be composed of a simple tear in the space/time continuum. It would be the tail of a black hole, the singularity, and would have openings on both ends. It would link two points on the spacial plane by transversing fourth dimensional space, much the same way a wormhole worked. Only a quantuum singularity supposedly had no method of control. There had to be a way to open that rift. Logic clearly dictated it.

Savok raised an eyebrow. Quantuum physics were best discussed with the engineer..............
 
Captain Emerson

Captain Emerson almost smiled. Borg Cubes dont work well together. Their weapons worked on such a scope as to make concert actions on so small a ship as a nebula class laughable. "Rock pull us closer to the first cube and and show them just how fast you can fly this ship. Telnak concentrate firepower on communications of the first cube make them have to shoot through each other to reach us. I need you two working as one. cripple them. Lt Denoitnem if you have a trick play it on the borg sphere and do it in the next 30 seconds. Argos get me a path and an opening in 250 seconds.Onyx keep our shields shifting dont let them get a lock on us and get me that pod through our shields now! Savok project a telemtry that will allow these actions to work in concert within the next 200 seconds.....
Argos..Savok I need this rift to be a workable solution within the next 190 seconds..." I quietly look through the parameters of our firepower and the possibility of a seperation and self destruct combination...My confidence in my crew tells me it wont come to that, but my training ensures I must prepare for the worst.
 
Lt. Denoitnem:

Unhappy that the captain did not come down to see my invention personally, I obey his order. I pull the visor over my head and grab the joystick.

Those years at Star Fleet Academy were mostly spent playing Earth video-games.

Now, I have control of the 8472 Biomass ship that is our shuttle craft.

The ship, equiped with a mock multi-phase shield exits the shuttlebay door. I remember to warn the bridge and immediately tap my comm badge to tell them not to attack the Biomass Ship.

I tap the controller, sending a prerecorded message to the Borg. The message reminds them of a time long ago when they needed the Federation's help against their strongest enemy.

The Borg are sure to take this as a noble threat. Besides, if they choose not to, I loaded a virus into the two photon torpedos--it is good to work for the doctor.
 
He double checked the coordinates and the torpedo. It should work, in theory that is. He never liked theories though, cause there were just so much that could go wrong.
There wasn't a choice, Emerson wnated this thing done in two minutes. He shook his head.
What about the particle displacement array. That could work also. It would splice any particles, supspace or not, that had already already been spliced before. Damnit, he wishes he knew more about sup space trave. Honestly, he would have liked to know more about all of this. They were flying on a theory, a hope, and a couple of pipe dreams.
He loaded up a torpedo with with new supspace array. Just in case his first torpedo didn't do quite what was expected. In this line of work he had seen that not everything worked out as planned.
Something flashed as the lights went out. Plunged in the darkness back up power began, giving them less than adequate light.
Argos quickly looked up the problem. So much power was being taken to the shield remodulation, it didn't have time to keep up with everything else.
"If we keep shifting the shield like we are, the entire ship will lose power in less than a minute."
He quickly made some emergency power modulations to give as much as he could to the important systems. It wasn't a hundred percent, but it should do until the go through the rift.
He opened up a badge to med bay 2.
"Sorry doctor, we need more power. We're going to have to take the force fields in there offline."
A short pause, "Understood Commander."
It loosened up some power, which he transferred to Mike's flying. Good thing Mike was back here, at least they wouldn't crash into anything. They'd probably just blow up.
Both torpedo's ready, be began recalculating the relay stations to give out a higher output.
 
Ben

Humans...even though I'm still mostly human, I can make little sense of them.
I was in a large cemetery, standing near a large stone as a mist that seemed to have little reason to exist floated amid the stones, moving over the surface of the ground as though it were water.
I moved carefully between the stones until I heard their voices. THen I moved to get a good look at them. There were four of them, at least that I could see, discusing something trivial...two were digging a grave while two stood on the ground above, speaking downward into the hole.
One was suddenly distracted by something laying on the ground nearby. He reached down and picked it up, his eyes wide.
It was a human skull. He held it up before him as if mesmerized by it.
"aahhhh...tis gentle Yorick...I knew him well, Horatio...he hath borne me on his back a thousand times..."
He glanced toward me then, seeming to do it almost instinctually. His eyes grew tyet wider...
"Good God, man!" He exclaimed, "Did someone just dig you up?"
I was slightly annoyed.
I walked toward then,, pacing between the stones as the four men turned their stares to me. When I reached them, I opened my mouth to speak, but before i could, the scene before me dimmed and then vanished.
The ship was losing power, I thought, which meant that they would need all available power to keep the ship functioning properly, which also meant...
THe holodeck, then a small room decorated with glowing green grids, suddenly phased out with white light. WHen the light dimmed, I was no longer on the holodeck.
The place I was in was dark, and distantly, I could hear feet stepping, all in unison. The place sent alarm through my system, but also left me feeling a long lost comfort...
The power on the Hera had surged, then dropped, the system failing temporarily as they rerouted power to the proper utilities...in that time, the holodeck became unprotected, and the Borg had found me and beamed me aboard...
How had they done it? Had the shields dropped? Or had the Borg developed the technology to beam through the shields? Impossible it seemed, but with the Borg, any advancement seemed only a few steps away...
A Borg cube...or sphere, I couldn't tell which, as I'd never served on a sphere before...
The marching sound was coming closer, but they had no interest in me, I knew. They were currently preoccupied, and I would seem no threat to them, not having been and still partly being, Borg...
 
Lt. Denoitnem:

Flying between the Hera and the Borg cube, the Biomass Ship repeats its message to the Borg. The Borg, always annoying, communicates that the ship will be assimilated. So far, so good.

The biomass ship rocks as the Borg try to lock a tractor beam on it. Unfortunatly for them, the multiphase shields are repelling the beam.

I tap the controls and watch the phasors clip the borg's shield.

Not down yet! The Hera had better pull down the Borg shield or my vessel cannot harm her.

Laying On In A Destert Of Some planet Aman opens his eyes He has No idiea Why he is here He staands Up And Stumbels The only thought in his head was EXCALIBUR And than he wisperd it aloud.
 
Savok computed some algorithyms quickly. The rift did not fluctuate. But, he noted, it did leave a residual eddy in the space/time plane. He locked a sensor probe onto it and began feeding the data to Argos. That data should give him sufficient targeting information for his torpedos.

Savok looked at the Borg vessels on the viewscreen. They were still impressive ships. It was a pity, he thought, that they were about to be destroyed. He noted Lt. Denoitnem's trajectory in the converted shuttle. If the Ferengi was able to time his phaser pulses correctly, he could slip a burst into the Borg ship's shield field harmonic, and cause sufficient damage. Savok scanned the Borg cube, adjusting his beam to match the vessel's resonating multi-layer shield. He found that the Borg shield was composed of pure energy, and as such, resonated on a specific frequency. This information was coded and sent in a micro-second burst transmission to Lt. Denoitnem.

Savok waited.
 
Alien:

Looking about the room as the members of the crew did their duty, K'Tur thought to himself. "I can't let them go the way my home world did... Even if it is my life... My father sacrificed himself for millions of people he did not know... With far less of a reason to want to... They hated him... Hated him till he died for them... these people had no reason to save me... But the did... They don't know me... I don't really know them... What should I do?" K'Tur's mind was racing as he looked up at the ceiling, forcing a deep breath.
 
Still Sleeping.......

Her purring echoes through the walls of her Pod, turning onto her stomach she sighs in her sleep. She was restless, something was wrong, she could feel it....
Her mate was anxious; his blood pumping faster then normal, worry seemed to flow from his soul. She turned again, a small whine coming from her full lips, images flashing before her closed eyes. Memories of years ago of the War befallen on her people; causing her to tremble as she thrashed about. Her mind screaming for her to wake up, yet she could not. A growl replaces the purring, as she opens her mouth in a hiss, her fangs protruding from her humanoid features.
 
Counselor Gor

Her preliminary analysis complete, Septana concluded the interview with the alien known as K'Tur. She asked to doctor to keep her informed if there were any developments and she left to return her quarters. She nodded to Lt. Stone on her way to the turbolift. He was on her list of pending evaluations. Septana bristled a little at the thought.
 
Lt. Denoitnem:

As I circle around, avoiding the Borg fire, I receive a message through my visor. It seems that Savok has sent me an algorithm to defeat the Borg.

If I know the Borg, it will only work once and there are two ships out there.

I line up the trajectory to the large cube. Pushing forward on the joystick, I watch the helm readouts.

Steady... Steady... Steady... As my hand squeezes around the trigger mechanism, I watch the cube take the impact of five wisely placed phasor shots. The spread had been perfect--or damn close.

The Borg cube ceases movement and begins its automated self-destruct sequence. The sphere begins to fire at the shuttle craft / biomass ship. Hoping that the algorithms will still work, I accelerate forward, past the borg fire and directly at the sphere's Acheilles heel.

Slowly, I arm the photon torpedos and change trajectory to match the earlier plan.

Will I make it through the Borg shield? And, if so, will the virus work? I press the large red button (oooh) and let auto-pilot kick in. Only a computer can follow Savok's directions to the letter.
 
Astre at The Haven...

When Red Alert sounded the place emptied fast. Battle cries in the silence of space, not the loud cries as heard on a Klingon Bird of Prey but the quiet focused commands of a well-trained fighting force. Trained by Star Fleet, ensigns in one moment laughing and joking in the next were consummated soldiers acting on instincts honed at the academy. The experienced officers once telling stories were now moving with grim determinations….

The overwhelming silence engulfed me. I can feel them out there in the darkness, searching, united in a way I didn’t think possible… It could not be. It was impossible. Borg did not feel. Never the less it was true…they felt fear
 
Argos.

He looked at the small fluctuation in the power. At once, he terminated all consoles on the ship, except for engineering, sickbay, and the bridge. He quickly turned his comm link on.
"All unnecessary scans, tests, alogrhythms and tricorder readouts are to now be terminated. We are already short on power, please save what you can."
With that said, he deleted Savok's reports. It would have been very helpful, he agreed, but right now they wouldn't afford to waste the power. It could go to another phase shift in the shield. They needed that right now.
The way things are going, if he squeezed the last bit of juice out of this thing, they'd just have enough power to get through the rift.
After that.
He needed to check those power manifolds.
"I'm going to engineering. My comm will be open at all times."
He ran out, going towards the turbo lifts. He half smiled, the turbo lifts weren't working... too much power. He quickly got down one of the Jeffrey's tubes.
Climb climb climb.
Something rocked the ship slightly.
Had the borg started firing? (they should be firing)
He wasn't sure, he began to climb faster though. The faster he got down there the better.
 
The doctor felt the power drain, his program faded, slightly. It was still on, however.
Looking down at the alien, he saw it shiver slightly.
"You need to keep alive. Come on, talk to me. Anything and everything, just start talking."
A mild relaxant. Something to calm him down, although it couldn't counteract the drug he had given the thing earlier.
"Here we go, that'll take the edge off. Now, stay with me. I don't want to sedate you, but if you keep this up I just might."
 
K'Tur:
With the relaxant the doctor had just given him, K'Tur slumped back, it felt as though he were drifting away on a cloud... A moment later he snapped back to attention as he felt a strange sensation within his mind...

The sudden realization of K'Tur's counterpart out there, awake made him tence up, drawing a sharp breath. "She's out there, so close..." He whispered as he looked about the room. "I... I can feel her near... So near..." It was agony and he clenched his stomach at the flood of hungering emotion that suddenly filled him. It was primal, gripping, how could he resist it? He needed her here... Suddenly he disappeared, the place where he had sat, empty of the air he had been displacing suddenly caved in on itself with a loud bamf, a puff of smoke the only visible marker of his vacation. An instant later, his arms wrapped around the woman as she lay in her podd, another instant found them back aboard the Hera... K'Tur layed the woman on the medical examination table... He looked her over with a smile creaping upon his lips as he pressed the back of his hand soothingly against her cheek, in an attempt to wake her.

The doctor puched his comm badge.
"Captain, the borg seemed to have..."
He stopped, looking at now two furry blue monkey things on his medical table. He wasn't sure how to explain this.
"Yes?"
"Captain, the other alien seems to have come aboard. She's here in the medical bay. We can leave as soon as you are ready."
He gave her a quick look over with the tricorder.
"Well, you seem to be just fine, although I can't explain why you're even here."
Suddenly, a computer began printing out chemical readings that had happened over the past few seconds. He looked at them, finally understanding.
"Oh my..."
