Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy

[macrorufus]

Huo paused, surprised. This was first contact with another species.
Screw it.
The fennec took the shot, as the alien pushed the trooper close to the wall, aiming at the legs.

[Daryn]

*sighs and hooks himself up for full neural link* "You know I did always hate using that..." he comments offhandedly as he'gets the links ready. "Though I suppose it does have some advantages."

Finishing the hook up he brings up status reports on the goings on of the ship.

[Arratra]

The SCION grunted, and actually managed to push the alien back a step, before they became locked in place, neither one able to gain leverage. The SCION opened his mouth, and bared fangs that were nigh-on a foot in length, but which were clearly capable of folding back into his mouth. He was panting, however, not actively threatening.
"Wh.. wh..." he managed, clearly trying to ask something important.
"Why?" Muukhuz supplied, her hologram still hovering, bizarrely, in midair, at a strange angle. The Scion nodded, his breath rasping slightly in his throat.

[Nelle Kozera]

"Why, well that is simple its because..." It never got to finish as the shot tore into its leg, which caused it to aduiably growl before the doors opened to there own accord before he jumped into the opening before it slammed shut again, Razel could open them if he was to be informed about it, though it is unknown currently as to how they where opened.

---

The captains vision's blanks out its as if he is sitting a room white nothingness, 'Sorry, wrong calibration...' Came Razel's voice resonating through the captains head before the vision switched external view, it was as if the entire ship's weapons systems where an extension of the Gyrfalcon's body. Each of the ship's multitude of weapons where at the command of the captains thoughts though there where hard wire limits into each of the weapons, a weapon would not fire if it cause anything more than minor damage to the hull. In Jon's Vision an object has came into view, a moment later power level readings, and loads of other data came crashing into Jon's brain like a runaway freight train, all the data meant one thing it was a weapon and that it was armed. Though it wasn't pointed that the Undiscovery....

[Daryn]

Jon blinks and starts sifting through the data and sorting it out into relevant areas of his vision. "Whoa, this thing is big. This could be bad... Razel, scan that for me please..."

[macrorufus]

Huo shrank back from the fangs that the trooper showed, but quickly regained his nerves. He hands the pistol butt first to the SCION trooper, and bends to grab his own.
"I shot it with your cryo rounds. Let's see if we can get Razel to open this compartment."

[Arratra]

The SCION nodded, as Muukhuz's image disappeared from the air, and appeared on the bridge.
"We have an intruder," she informed Razel, noting that Jon was linked with weapons, "He seems to have taken control of the doors.

The Shadow Dragon slid into a defensive position, bringing its defensive shields online. The protective bubble seemed to waver in visibility for a moment, before vanishing from view.

[Nelle Kozera]

“It’s one of ours…” Razel said before speaking silently to the captain. “Captain that is an experimental wormhole weapon built by the Alliance back in 2301, It was our duty not only to test these weapon but to use them in our defense and that one is our most powerful one, not only that but it has an extreme range.” Razel informed the captain for the first time, this information was never released to the captain till now. “Even though at the moment we at the limits of its own range it can still fire and it more than likely to hit. And from the data…its lowest setting can destroy a small moon, I’m assuming the contemporary Alliance units are here to collect these weapons, most likely for the upcoming war between the two super powers that wages right now…” He said the captain, of course that was only a theory he wasn’t sure if there was a war or not. “In any case, that weapon is not pointed at the ship but the planet in which we are heading to, and I’m not sure why…”

---

The door that section opened to the sight of the alien holding a slowly freezing leg as he made his way slowly down the corridor “Fools…trap me when I’m trying to protect them, shoot me when I just want to get away…what’s the word….oh yes…bastards…”

[Daryn]

"Thanks Razel." Jon says cooly as he starts to work on the interface work. "I don't know why it's pointed at that planet, but if it fires there won't be a planet for us to visit."

With any luck, maybe the thing will respond to his autorization codes. He tries to get a link and take control of that wormhole weapon. "Come to think of it, if we can get a hold of that, it could maybe be modified to get us home!" the bird chirps a little excitedly, "Well, one thing at a time I suppose."

"Sitrep on the Intruder!" comes his clear order through the coms.

[Arratra]

"Protect us from what?" a voice said near the alien; a many-legged robotic chassis stepped into view. A red cross was splashed across the front of the chassis.
"This is mobile unit Beta," the voice said, "A mobile terminal I can access to treat injuries in the field. My name is Doc. I am a specialised medical AI."
The unit moved closer, extending a sensor wand. After three seconds, the unit said, "Flesh wound using Cryo ammunition. Incapacitating shot. They were attempting to take you alive... And I, for one, wish to know how you got aboard their ship."

Muukhuz's hologram jerked as she recieved new information from Doc.
"Doc found the intruder," she said, "Razel, I need you to get that door open to let the crew in. SCION 5 loaded his pistol with nonlethal cryo rounds."

[macrorufus]

Huo, unaware of the Dark Core communications efforts, toggled his own comms after hearing the Captain request a sitrep. It appeared comms were functional here.
"Er, Captain, the Intruder attacked us, but has retreated and closed bulkhead 14B. We managed to get a cryo shot on it, no casualties so far. If you can open the bulkhead, we can capture the creature."
Huo nodded at the SCION trooper, signing with his hands, the universal 'are you ok?' question.

[Arratra]

SCION 5 nodded; he was unharmed, thanks, in part, to his armour. He seemed a little unimpressed, though. The expression clearly stated that, although he was mute, he was not deaf.

[Nelle Kozera]

The doors of the corridor in which the fennec and the dragon inhabited at the moment began to open and close, then open and close again. The process began to repeat over and over and again, it seemed as if there was a struggle for control of the door way, though it happened slowly enough that one could pass through the doors if they timed it right. Down the hall way one could see the hobbling alien trying to go towards the power distribution center for this area of the ship. Weather this was intented or pure chance remained to be seen, though it seemed that the Alien wasn’t in pain it was more that he couldn’t move his leg as it wished. “Ignorant drone, I have need to explain myself to you, I have places to be…” It said, for the first time the voice took a feminine sound to it, though the species was alien origin, meaning the alien maybe be of an the analogue to a female gender.

--

“Captain…” Razel said as he scanning though the data following through his mind, “Someone is going to need to go out the manually disable this weapon of ours…or shove it into the backwash of the Near light Drive Engines as we are still moving at full speed so the drive field would rip it shreds...”

[Daryn]

Jon had been trying hard to gain control of the weapon, but it seems as if he doesn't have the right access codes. He opens a link to the Dark Core ship, "Excuse me Ms. Muukhuz, do you have resources enough to shunt that thing into our backwash? I don't want that wormhole weapon to fal into enemy hands, whoever they happen to be."

[Arratra]

"No options to place it in your backwash present themselves," Muukhuz stated, "But, given it's current position, we can divert the Shadow Dragon so that it gets caught in our wash. Our ship, being more modern, is slightly faster than yours, so the detour presents no significant problems. And it's just Muukhuz, Jon. I hate being called Miss."

The SCION slipped between the doors, as Doc's medical drone followed the alien, waving the sensor wand around.
"Wait a minute!" Doc called, as the ice continued to spread across the alien; it now reached the hips, and threatened to immobilise the other leg.
The SCION caught hold of the alien, and Doc's drone stopped.
"How are we in danger?" he asked simply, "And from whom?"
The sensor wand passed over the alien's abdomen, picking up readings as it went. The device was completely harmless as far as it went; you had to poke someone in the eye in order to do any damage at all, as it was rather fragile.

[macrorufus]

Huo cursed as the trooper slipped through, then followed suite. He bumped his shoulder as he hopped through and cursed. He kept his own gun trained on the alien after he caught up. He wasn't afraid to shoot something so keen to attack them earlier.

[Nelle Kozera]

"Captain, that ship is small, while it might get the job done, I still want that thing disabled before its shoved in the Drive backwash as it might get the chance to fire...in which case i don't want to be with in a light year when that happens, let alone pointblank range...." Razel said to the captain.

--

"From yourselves it seems, your so keen on getting yourselves killed it seems..." She said grabbing on to the SCION's arms, it appeared that the suit she was wear boosted one physical strength as it seemed that she clamped down with enough force crash bone, though restrained herself. "You will let go of me..." She said as the bottom half of the Exosuit she was wearing ejected itself. Underneath was a red jointed exo-skeleton covering the leg muscles, though she was now free, she kept her hand firmly clamped on the SCION before shoving him out backwards. The door opened in front of them and she jumped into the maglev elevator slamming the down button the doors closed in front of them, they opened a moment later to show and empty corridor. A simple trace would show that the Alien was heading for the Bridge...

[Daryn]

Jon shakes his head and sighs. "Well, if we can't get to it but they can, it doesn't seem like a tough choice here." he goes through his weapons readouts and starts looking at a tactical readout of the weapon, "Let's see what we've got on this ship that can do the job. If I can get the ball rolling with the weapons I've got here, the Dark Core ship should be able to clean up the rest. Got that Muuhkuz?"

[macrorufus]

Huo grabbed his comms and broadcast to Razel and Jon as fast as he could.
"Hostile has escaped. Heading towards bridge! You need to shut down whatever bulkheads are in the way sir!"
Yep, no doubt about it. Attacked them, then deliberate refusal to surrender, and now it looked to be charging the bridge. Well he wasn't going to let that happen.
Raising his pistol, Huo squeezed off a couple of shots as he raced after the damnable thing.

[Arratra]

The SCION's physical strength easily matched the alien's; she tore free another part of her exosuit as she got away, leaving the SCION helplessly trying to free his hand from it, as it had just been crushed in his fist in such a way that it held it shut.

Muukhuz, hearing the alert, grabbed control of a portion of the Undiscovery for a moment, and raised the defensive cover, designed to discourage boarders. This presented a series of zig-zagging hurdles to the alien... as well as their own allies, although the barriers were better designed to allow the allies through. The AI then withdrew, focussing on spinning up the Shadow Dragon's energy weaponry.

[Nelle Kozera]

“Well…you made quite far…” Razel appeared at the exit of the maglev elevator, where the Female alien exited. “What we’ve playing this game for what…300 years?” He said as the alien shed the rest of her exo-suit. This conversation was heavily fire walled as all surveillance systems died as the doors opened, even the data that went to the projectors where lost in the maze of hard line connections and encrypted to boot. The alien was wearing a thin red jump suit over her exoskeleton, “Well…it takes that long to get here when there is a Psychotic, well by your own standards anyway, I cannot judge you by our standards as we nothing to compare you to.” She said walking by the hologram, “Whatever your obsession with this object is, it’s gone too far, it has gotten to the point…” The Hologram disappeared as the elevator with the crew from below that had been chasing the alien arrived. The Female went to all fours using the barriers as cover as she zigzagged through the maze.

--

"Captain, we could have one of the Engineers take a shuttle out to the weapon to the disable the weapon, and the alien is two corridors from us..."

[Daryn]

Jon nods slowly and puts in a call to engineering, "I hope that you can spare a couple of men. We need you to take a trip to do a little field work."

With that, he gets up and disconnects from the weapons grid, no sense being all hooked up when the alien is about to join them. The last thing he wants is to be caught unprepared, so he draws his sidearm and makes sure it's all in order. "At this point I'm guessing there's no doubt this alien is hosile."

[Arratra]

"I have to disagree," Muukhuz said, her hologram still on the bridge, "The alien seems to want to save us from something. If you must fire on her, go for a nonlethal takedown."

Doc's mobile drone skittered up a wall, ignoring the artificial gravity and running along the corner of the roof, where there was nothing to hinder the drone. This mobility option was built-in as this was a medical drone, not a tank.

[Nelle Kozera]

"Well it seems hostile, but I think it would be better if we brought her in for processing we might learn a great deal of information, i'm all for capturing her..." Razel said, though his hologram did not appear on the bridge.

---

The corridor outside the bridge the doors to the command center where blocked by massive 5 meter thick blast doors, nothing was getting through there if it wasn't let through. "Razel you prick..." She said kicking in the hatch to a maintenance corridor causing it to bend inwards. She delivered another kick cause its locking device to fail and flew open. She went to all fours again, the corridor was a small crawl space, which allowed her much more mobility than the other bipedal species tailing her, but still not what she would have normally. Secondly there was safety in this area as they could not shoot without the risk of damaging connections to ship critical systems...

---
"Skipper, wasn't this supposed to the day I got to rest?" Came the head engineers voice. But it seemed that he was already on his way to the shuttle bay. Though the reason for this wasn't explained. "Razel have a shuttle ready, this shall be annoying at best and suicidal at worst...all in a day work I suppose..." Everyone had noticed that engineers patience and attitude had been eroding over the past eighteen months.

[Daryn]

Jon blinks as he sees this exchange. He looks over at Razel's form on the bridge, not the holographic form, the physical one. "She doesn't seem to like you for some reason." he muses out loud, "Admit her into the bridge, I want to talk to her." he still has his sidearm ready though, just in case.

[Arratra]

"I'm patching SCION Leader through," Muukhuz said, her hologram wavering. After a moment, the hologram reformed as Arratra, standing, apparently, in a hologram booth.

[macrorufus]

Huo chased the damnable thing, swearing as defenses moved into position that ended up hindering him more than it did the alien. He breathed a sigh of relief that it didn't enter the bridge. But he had no idea how he was going to force it out of the maitenance ducts. He holsted his pistol, angrily toggling the safety on and cursed. He didn't relish the thought of going after it in a duct. He toggled his communicator.
"Razel, sir, the hostile has entered maintenance duct 7-B, just outside the bridge. Don't know where it leads or its schematics. Should I continue pursuit?"

[Nelle Kozera]

“Huo…that maintenance leads to my connections to the rest of the ship…” Razel said coolly, “But it seems that our captain wants to meet the alien on the bridge…” Razel seemed more than a little annoyed about this, and with good reason. “In any case I’m opening the duct that leads to the panels just under the bridge, get in here and deal with our friend so it doesn't put a hole in the fair head of our captain…”

In the duct work of the bridge, one the entrances that lead to the bridge opened in which the alien took instantly. She spoke a single sentence as she entered the bridge area of the duct work. “Those that don’t listen will feel..." She said this as the hatch opened, she grabbed two GSA 23rd century era pistols that seemed to have been planted in the very spot in which she grabbed them as her upper body became visible in the opening on the bridge floor in which Razel had opened for her, via the captains orders. She flicked the safety off on the weapons as she pointed one towards Razel’s chamber, the second one aimed directly on the head of the captain. The doors to the bridge had opened as she began speaking the two inhabitants of the bridge. “Well, I do say this is different than the last ten times we tried this little game Razel…I should still shoot you for what you put me through…”

[Daryn]

Jon looks at the alien as she enters the bridge. He doesn't seem that phased by her pointing a pistol at him, at least not outwardly. "Right, before you go shooting those off, would you mind terribly explaining yourself?"

[Arratra]

"I agree," Arratra said, uncrossing his arms. He didn't move from his place, though. "SCION 5 is still on the upper decks of the Undiscovery, trying, I might add, to free his hand from the plate of your armour you left in his grasp."
