((Bridge, USS
Tribal NCC-63201))
::Lt. Commander James Thorn sat in his command chair of the
Tribal an Aegian Class Fast Frigate. He had just been given the
assignment
and command of the ship. He had been assigned Border Patrol duty
along the neutral zone. The Aegian Class was a small ship,
larger than its brother class of Defiant but smaller than its
cousin the Intrepid. The Aegian Class
is only 10 decks will only 9 of those being livable. Deck 10 is
utilized for storage and cargo. The ship has a total crew count
of 116 and 35 of witch being officers.
James Crossed his legs and took a sip of his
coffee and kept reading his PADD, as of late this side of the
Border had been fairly calm. Nothing out of the ordinary, he
did not that Stormcrow was now listing as MIA. He was just
about to read into that when his Tactical
and Security Chief spoke up.::
Martins: Captain, we have a recorded message coming in from the
Captain of the Stormcrow. Should I play it, it is directed at
the Commanding Officers of Star Fleet.
::James had
never been big on secrets, he was all about a transparent
Command. He thought for a moment, could this be something to do
with Section 31?::
Thorn: ::Standing up, and facing the Tactical Station:: Lets
here it Lieutenant.
::Pointing to the overhead area that sound came from::
Recorded Arrhimen: To Star Fleet Command, This is Captain Haz
Arrhimen, Commanding Officer of the USS Stormcrow, Command ID
number Alpha 1150Gamma 453 Bravo. As
you know I have strong feelings about the Romulan threat, and
your weakness and ability to not lift one finger to stop it. I
now know that it is my responsibility to purge the issue for
ever. I will take up the flag of
the martyr. My crew and I are ready to do what is need to save
and protect the Federation.
I am deeply saddened that I will not live past what I have to do, if I were to live my next target would be Star Fleet Command. An American President by the name of Thomas Jefferson once said that The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. He also said that every generation needs a New Revolution.
Well i say to
you, here is the new revolution. Me and my crew of the Stormcrow
are those Patriots and we will water the tree of liberty with
green blood of the tyrants. We
have lived in fear too long. We have had to many of our loved
ones taken from us by these tyrants. No more... It ends today.
History will remember us as the savors of humanity while our so
called leaders did nothing. If you
send a Star Fleet ship to try and stop us, I will count them
as siding with the Romulans and they will be destroyed. That is
your only warning. Captain Arrhimen out....
::James stood in
the middle of the bridge not moving or saying anything for a few
moments. He knew of Captain Haz Arrhimen, he was well known for
his tactical mind and more
known for his short temper and hot mouth. He tended to shoot
first and ask questions later. Looking over at Lt. Martins::
Thorn: Can you
locate where that message was transmitted from?
Martins: ::Looking
at his scans and ran his long fingers over the LCARS, then
looked up and shook his head no.:: Sorry sir, it was bounced off
a relay stations with a scrambling
modulation. Maybe if he had more sensors we might be able to,
but I really doubt it sir.
::The X.O. walked
over to the Tactical Station and looked down as she looked over
the scans she pushed the blond hair out of her eyes.::
Heartwik: I agree
sir, there is no way we can break it down quick enough to do us
any good.
Thorn: That might
be so, but lets still work on it, it might give us a starting
point. Maybe one of bigger brothers my have better luck or we
might but lets try. ::James walked
closer to Jessica:: Commander I want you and Ensign Paulsen to
head to Science and see if you can do anything.
Heartwik: Aye
sir. Ensign you heard the captain ::Smiling and stepping into
the turbo lift.:: Lets do this.
::Ensign Paulsen
and Lt. Cmdr Heartwik disappeared behind the closing turbo lift
doors. James walked about the bridge and up the small ramp to
the Tactical Station. Look over
the area around them he noticed the USS Albion Traveling at
maximum warp.::
Thorn: What is the
Albion?
Martins: The
Albion is the support ship for Star Base 118, she is an
Excelsior Class ::Looking at more info as he scrolled down the
list:: Under the command of Captain Lea Handly-Page
but looks like the ship is being commanded by the Stations First
Officer, Commander Sal Taybrim.
Thorn: Where are
they heading so fast?
Martins: ::looking
at more info:: The Valdis System sir, its in Romulan Space,
there traveling at Maximum warp of 9.4. ::Looking at the
captain:: Our max warp is 9.95 ::Grinning::
::James smiled and
then laughed at eagerness of his Tactical Officer, he patted him
on the back and then walked back around to Command Seat::
Thorn: By all
means lay in a course, maximum warp.
Martins: We will
beat the Albion by ::Looking down at his read out:: 22 minutes
sir.
Thorn: ::Smiled
and took a seat:: Engage...
::James watched
the view screen flash white then balance out to the stars
streaking by on the screen.::
Thorn: I don't
want my first command to come to a quick end because we are
mistaken for helping the Stormcrow, Hail the Albion:
::Commander Thorn
waiting for a moment for the Transmission to be patched in...::
Thorn: Captain
Taybrim, I am Commander James Thorn of the USS Tribal, I am
warping to the Valdis System, I will hold outside of the system
in case you need me. THe Tribal is
a new Fast Frigate, we are faster than you and our shields are
far better but both you and the Stormcrow can out gun us. I just
wanted to add my support so your not out here alone.
Taybrim:
Throne: We will be
outside the system in two and half hours.
Taybrim:
::James stood up
and looked at the man on the screen::
Thorn: I stand
ready and you have the lead of course, You have the higher rank
and the stronger ship. ::Looking at his PADD with the info on
the Albion, he noticed something
and then looked back up at Sal.:: You have Commander Baylen
Anders on board?
Taybrim:
Thorn: I do yes,
we went to the Academy together and worked together on Outpost
Ganzera. Good luck captain, We have your back.
