Administrator B’hab watched as the Federation starship Ronin came into view. They were still far out, but their long-range scans were able to bring back a visual of the USS Ronin, a thorn in the side of the Lattice Alliance. It took him quite a while to recover from almost getting cooked to death by the mad Tholian, B’ek. One day, he would get his revenge, but not today. Today was about taking out one pain in the ass; there was also the Khitomer, but that was another problem for another time.
The long processes had been a long, hard road for the Sheliak Captain, now Administrator. He’d all been but dead when his loyal crew found him after B’ek turned up the heat in the specialized Tholian containment box, so they could join on a mission on a Sheliak vessel, though that was less of a practice now. As for B’hab, he couldn’t trust the Tholians as far as he could throw one. But between them and the Consortium, he strode the bridge of the Alliance's new fast attack cruiser. It was a merger of Sheliak and Tholian technology, with some assistance from the Consortium.
The LATF Phoenix Rising was state-of-the-art; the only thing that was missing was a cloaking device, but who’s to say that would happen sometime in the near future? It was equipped with a Sencha cannon, phasers, and torpedoes. He had a few tricks up his sleeve since the last time they met.
Helm: Administrator, we’ve most likely been noticed by the Ronin.
B’hab: That’s fine, shields up.
Tactical: Should I spin up the cannon, sir?
B’hab smiled; he had the advantage at the moment and could most likely turn them into stardust. If Captain Niac was as good as he read about, then this would be a true fight, though the Ronin was old and one of the only Akira’s serving in the fleet, and maybe it was time to take one out of commission. But he’d wait for the right to reveal the Sencha cannons.
B’hab: Helm, bring us to a stop, just outside their weapons range.
Helm: Understood.
He appreciated that this was a completely Sheliak ship, with no Tholians, scientists, or others. He despised the crystalline creatures, especially after what B’ek did to him. But this was not about him, but about the ship in front of him.
The USS Ronin.
