Dallas had, disobeying orders, returned to the Bridge. He knew he had been right and he wanted his opportunity to state his case and do his duty. He also knew that this would most likely end his career and not even his well positioned father could influence the impact of such a bone headed move. As he walked on he saw no XO and no CO but he did hear the com message. He looked around but no one moved. The Engineering Lt Jg who had taken the com did nothing and literally looked scared.

“Red Alert. Shields up” He called out.

The Weapons officer hesitated but Dallas had said it with such authority he followed the order.

“Aye Sir. Red Alert.” He mimicked.

Dallas moved to the COs chair and the Engineering officer relinquished it without an argument happily moving to the Engine console.

=^=CAG this is the Bridge. Open fire on those ship.=^=

He realized he had forgotten to breathe and exhaled.

Dallas Ops

=^=Yes, Sir.=^= Was the only reply before the order was carried out. A heartbeat later, the two squadrons could be seen on the viewer moving to intercept the ships and fire upon them to cripple their propulsion systems. None of the shots were killing or destruction shots. She hadn’t been given orders to destroy them, so the order was to cripple. With luck, the shots would cripple the ships and keep them from moving, impulse or otherwise.

“I think this once was called Possum by an old card playing friend of mine.” Dallas called out as he gingerly sat in the COs chair.

He then observed the fighter wing engage the targets as their power increased and they pivoted toward the Olinski. As the ships moved the fighters hit them with, if his memory served his right, pulse cannons mounted to the front of the Templar fighters. They seemed to rotate one to the next and pounded the impulse engine sections of the ships. Another fighter let loose with several micro torpedos. This barrage was launched on both targets and it resembled a very deadly ballet.

However one the ships turned and was able to fire a torpedo and anyone knew a Romulan torpedo was slow but deadly. If the person on the sensors observed closely they would recognize this torpedo was an older generation design.

“Torpedo.” Called out the Ensign at Tac.

Dallas almost froze. Could the Olinski take a single torpedo. What the hell was he doing in this chair?

Dallas Ops

As for the fighters they would find one ship had lost its impulse engines and had no shields but torpedo tubes were opening aft. The other ship that had turned and fired had front and starboard shields at 20% but no aft or port shields. Its impulse engines were damaged but it was able to move toward the Olinski.

GM

OOC: I want to give the CAG a chance to react and the XO to arrive before I post the next action.
IC:

“Sir.” The helm looked back at Dallas for orders.

Dallas just sat there.

“Hard starboard.” He called out.

However looking at the torpedo trajectory this would not out run it. It would just change the impact from forward shields to Port.

“Both Helm and Navigations looked at each other.

“Aye Sir.” Helm answered.

OOC: Good place for the XO to step in. Hint

GM/Dallas

Kolar entered the bridge taking back the conn. “Sitrep,” he barked out assuming the command chair.

Kolar XO

Dallas snapped out of his stupor and rose to get out of Kolar’s way.

“The two Romulan ships powered back up. We were able to hit them with the fighters in close proximity but the one turned and fired. They are both damaged. The fighters were still in the close proximity so we have not engaged directly.” He updated.

“Should I order the fighters to disperse?” He added suddenly.

“Sir Impact in 5 seconds. Port side at this heading.” Called at the Tac station. He added the last hoping maybe the XO realized that Dallas had made a call that still would cause a direct hit on the Olinski.

If the CAG was on top of her job the fighters would probably be dispersing as he suggested it

Dallas Ops

“Evasive maneuver Omega Lima Kilo ,” Kolar ordered tightening his grip on the arm rest but trying to appear calm. He had already made the mental calculations the Tac officer called out and was hoping the maneuvers would lessen the impact.

=^=Captain to Bridge. Their torpedos are double yield. If they launch put some space between the Olinski and it=^-=

Parker CO

=/=Already in progress Sir,=/= Kolar replied.

Kolar XO

With the Olinski moving quickly away trying to out run the torpedo the fighters were literally left alone with the two Romulan style ships.

OOC: REMINDER>>>>>>As for the fighters they would find one ship had lost its impulse engines and had no shields but torpedo tubes were opening aft. The other ship that had turned and fired had front and starboard shields at 20% but no aft or port shields. Its impulse engines were damaged but it was able to move toward the Olinski.

GM

((Everyone apparently forgot the CAG isn’t on the bridge lol. Woulda been nice cross posting went both ways… ie, someone told the CAG what was going on))

A couple fighters had seen the incoming torpedo and peeled away from the ship that wasn’t pointing to the Oli. A moment later, the two would fire on the torpedo. If timed right, it would explode just on the outside of the Olinski’s shields.
