Snip

DaVinci tore his eyes away from his console long enough to look up and see Sha’s mirror image in command of the Klingon ship. “Oh, that’s just peachy,” he said quietly.

“You wear my face and sit in the Captains seat of the Terran cruiser? And you tell me you have no intention of trickery?” Mirror Sha scoffed with clear mistrust. “The only language you understand is conquest, and you are not taking more of our people!” She spat the words at the screen. “Of course we read the anomaly, and then you appeared in place of the ship we destroyed! How convenient! And now you want us to lower our weapons? Fire.” The last words were spoken not to Sha, but to the big man beside her, who grunted, grinned, and reached off screen. Seconds later, six torpedo’s launched from the Kvaar’ton. Mirror Sha did not drop the screen however.

“I will watch you die, to make sure you can no longer wear my face!” Graham’s scanners would identify the torpedoes as carrying tricobalt warheads, and Colter would note the design was less advanced than the torpedo’s the Federation carried, and slower.

“They’re firing Tri-Cobalt torpedoes, you certainly don’t seem to like yourself.”

OOC: Okay that line made me actually LOL.

OOC: I try

“Maximum shields! Evasive maneuvers!” She hollered, knowing that was precisely what the crew had been waiting for and would do it as they had always done. “And I won’t give you the satisfaction of watching anything. Especially since apparently reason is something you are lacking.” She purposefully turned her back on the other Sha and shouted. “End transmission!”

Once the feed was cut, she turned to the Captain and nodded. “I believe the next few moments are your area of expertise, Sir?” She was familiar enough to know what weapons would do what damage. But maneuvers and weapon combinations were certainly not her strong suit.

“Skipper,” DaVinci called out, “Torps are armed with tricobalt warheads. That could’ve opened the rift that brought us here. These are less fancier than ours. . .ad slower, too. I’m trying to get a phaser lock on them . . .if I can get the damn weapons system to cooperate with me. . . . ” He clenched his jaw and bared his teeth in an almost Klingon like expression.

Colter (CIO)

“Good plan, Mr. Colter. Once you get a lock, fire upon them and hope the weapon targeting won’t miss them.
Helm, we need to take time, evasive maneuver Delta-3 full impulse.” Yuri felt a shot of adrenaline in the blood that he almost forgot he wasn’t seating anymore and instead was standing up with the hands closed in a punch.

Lieutenant Cdr. Yuri Scholz - Executive Officer

You could prep the phasers for counter weapon fire or you could aim at the enemy you really couldn’t do both and one left them in a defensive position that would be a losing equation eventually.

Graham. CSO popping in

“Return to your station Sha,” Dante said as he moved forward back to his chair. “We’re going to need you up there for this one.” He held no tone disappointment or anything of the like, they certainly couldn’t have predicted that Mirror Sha would be on the Bridge of the Alliance ship or that she would hold such hatred for the Terrans and mistrust of anything associated with them, even seeing herself on the Bridge of a seemingly Terran ship.

Colter’s attempts to gain control of the weapon systems was successful, then it wasn’t, then it was. Mirror Cori’s face appeared in his console once again. “Give, them, to, me!” She said, her tone frustrated and her expression looking like she was wrestling with something. The system was responding to Colter more and more as power and systems appeared to be returning to the Saracen’s control slowly. Colter finally had a stable lock, but the torpedo’s were nearly upon them. Phasers and Torpedoes were both responsive, except for the damaged strip that was damaged from the earlier surge.

“Not a chance!! This isn’t YOUR ship, you. . . you. . .you. . . ahhhh, got it!!!”

The helm initiated evasive maneuvers as the XO had ordered, but something went wrong as a surge leapt through Engineering and the Impulse engines seemed to ‘burp’ instead of power up. On his screen, Graham would see the second Klingon ship powering up it’s disruptors and closing in on them, eager for the kill. The Saracen seemed to lurch forward, then stopped accelerating as thrust from the Impulse engines failed and the shields seemed to waiver.

“Kill those torpedoes, Mr Colter,” Dante ordered as the lights flickered.

Captain Knight, CO

Colter’s hands stabbed out at the phaser controls which werre locked onto the incoming torpedoes “Firing phasers!!!!”

“Klingon cruiser to port closing to close range,” Marsh stared at his scanner. “He wants to hit us with point blank disruptors. He thinks were are vulnerable.”

Graham

A voice from engineering came over the comms. =^= 12 Seconds and holding…=^= Vadoma called out to those keeping track of the ‘self destruct’ countdown. =^=If anyone is gonna do anything, I suggest doing it now.=^= She tried to keep the giggle from her voice, but it was difficult.

“Captain,” the Commander kicked in with his engineering knowledge “Damn, I would suggest to eject the core or we are going to blow up here. Unfortunately I don’t know if we’ll have the time to leave far enough”

Lieutenant Cdr. Yuri Scholz - Executive Officer

“If we’re going down, we’re taking that Sha wanna-be with us.” He reconfigured the torpedoes to lock onto the Kvaar’ton and fired a full volley at the Alliance ship. Not sure how much time was left before the core blew, he hoped there was enough to see their enemy go down in flames. . . .

Colter (CIO)

Oddly enough, Sha was paying particular attention to the maneuvers and firing sequences as if they were part of a test. She had already decided, after five minutes in the big chair, that she wanted nothing to do with it in the future, but it still made her pay attention as if she were there for longer than this little charade.
