to USS Artemis-A – StarBase 118 Star Trek PBEM RPG
((USS Artemis, turbolift heading to the Bridge))
The turbolift was crowded. Vik had four other crew members of the Desdemona with him, beside the Ensign that they had captured. Holding his phaser at the man’s back, Vik was right behind.
They managed to get a hold of one of the Artemis crew and at gunpoint he was taking them towards the bridge. When the doors open they would flush out and get a drop on the crew there.
Every one of them had their weapons to the highest stunning setting, but Vik had learned enough to change it. They were also wearing Starfleet uniforms so they would look like any other crew members to untrained eyes.
Slowly he reviewed the plan and it all was working. They would get out and secure the bridge easily and without a fight. The next step…
The door opened right as they heard the red alert klaxons, the Ensign in front of him ran to the bridge screaming.
Ensign: THEIR BORDING US…
Vik shot him and covered behind one of his man as the bridge crew reacted quickly and phaser discharges began to fill the air. Up in smoke and lighting went his plan as he pushed the other out.
Two of his team went down and he fired aimlessly as he rushed to the side tackling the nearest Starfleeter. As he went down he punched the man, realizing only then that he was fighting an Andorian. Reaching for one of his antennae he yanked it hard, and sank the phaser in his face ending that fight there.
His remaining team mates had managed to shoot another Fleeter and were covered behind the consoles, exchanging phaser fire with the remaining ones.
Vik counted four still standing and bitterly fighting them, another was curling behind a console near him at the edge of the railing. Apparently he didn’t have a phaser, or was quietly trying to flank them.
Vik moved quickly and rolled over against this new antagonist. Striking at the mans head they both rolled down and he managed to get a hold of him, and pointed his phaser to his head.
Olivera: EVERYONE STAND DOWN OR HE DIES.
Vik leveraged the man so they could both be standing, him behind holding him by his arm, phaser at his neck.
Olivera: Drop your weapons now.
One of the officers, a Lieutenant in Gold, shook his head.
Lieutenant: Let him go.
Vik tipped his head.
Olivera: I said drop them. And open a ship wide communication.
The Lieutenant turned his phaser to them as the others looked hesitant. The two remaining from his team had stood up from their cover, phasers aimed at the Fleeters.
Lieutenant: We won’t…
He was cut short by a communication from their Captain.
MacKenzie: =/\= This is Captain MacKenzie. The alternate MacKenzie is somewhere on Deck 15. She is armed and considered dangerous, and should be apprehended at all costs. There are other members of the Desdemona crew on board – they should be located and detained immediately. =/\=
This gave Vik precious seconds as he quickly raised his phaser and shot the Lieutenant, his stunned body flipping back. Releasing his hostage and pushing him forward he changed the phaser setting, and raised his phaser to the nearest Fleeter.
Olivera: Next shot isn’t in stun mode. I will not ask again.
The moments of hesitation and the stunning of the Lieutenant had let the other Fleeters in a worse tactical position. They were still four against three, but only one of them remained aiming at his man, as the other two had lowered slightly the phasers.
Aiming at the more serious threat Vik shot, vaporizing him. The Fletters failed to react and merely froze. Vik took a step closer.
Olivera: Do I need to kill you all?
Slowly they shook their heads, those armed dropped their phasers and the one he had held before, now that he paid closer attention it was a Vulcan in blue uniform reached for a console and tapped on it.
Science Ensign: There is no need for further violence. Comline opened.
Vik nodded and gestured to his remaining team to catch the phaser.
Olivera: Thank you for choosing the most logical way.
Still holding his phaser he took a step closer to the Captain’s chair and cleared his throat.
Most of what he was about to say was a lie, but more often that not misinformation had won battles before.
Olivera: =/\= Crew of the Artemis, this is Captain Victor Olivera. We regret that we were forced to take action but we have taken all the key positions on the ship. I have secured the bridge and my fellow crew members have by now secured Engineering, Security, Sickbay and other key positions on the ship. To prevent further loss of life I beg every Starfleet officer to listen to reason and stand down. We have most of the senior staff already captured and will put them to death if there isn’t a full surrender in five minutes.
He gestured to the officer to cut the line. It was a good enough message, now it was all up to the others. Vik looked at the Captain's chair for a second, but then turned to the other on the bridge.
Olivera: Secure them and let's get ready. They will be here soon enough.
Shint Ensign: The rest of our crew?
Vik smiled at the man. Again he lied.
Olivera: Yes, we just captured the ship.
