*** Dagon’taan Spaceport (Outer/Pirate Ship) ***
The ships with the odd symbol continued their assault on the Pirate ship - and, as it happened, the DMC Battlegroup shifted fire on the Pirate ship, their Kadgeron-enhanced, varied weapons being easily capable of punching right through its shields and impacting on the hull. Indeed, every ship in the immediate vicinity started firing on the Pirate ship, though it was not clear why they all targeted the same ship.
*** Torgus Prime Orbit ***
The nuclear torpedo wouldn't do squat against the massive OAS Assault Carrier. In fact, it didn't even slow it down; it just kept charging.
On board the RRW
Vulpes Umbra, the First Officer turned to Anna. "We can't hack their system, but we can fire a Tachyon Inversion Beam at the ship - all Romulan Republic Vessels come equipped with a Tachyon Inversion Beam; it will drain the power of a target vessel's shields, and render them useless, while at the same time streaming that power back into our systems."
"With all ships deploying the TIB at once, we could possibly take a huge chunk out of that ship's shields, and if our Klingon allies over there follow suit, we could knock out the shields altogether," agreed the Chief Science Officer.
"Covenant vessels don't have very strong hull armor; their shields are their primary defense. If we take out the shields, that ship will be easy prey," added the Chief Engineer.
*** MJ12 Ship, Nephira Orbit ***
"I'll try and light your path to the signal source... stand by..." Steiner said over the channel. The lights flickered for a moment, then reactivated. "Follow the illuminated hallway; I've lit up the fastest path to the signal, avoiding damaged areas. Be on your guard, though; I'm getting ghost readings in that area, but sensors aren't picking up what it is."
*** Coruscant Orbit ***
There was a pause before Daniels came back: "Confirmed; Bay Control will tractor you in once you get close enough. Don't forget to check in with customs once you hit planetside. Captain Daniels out."
*** Coruscant ***
A lightsaber could be heard flaring with an audible
snap-hiss! followed by a few moments of shouts and screaming, before the lightsaber de-activated and silence settled in over the area. K'Tath marched onto the bridge not long after, and started bringing the craft to life. "Where did you say you wanted to go? Tatooine?" he asked Cobalt.
*** Korriban ~ Valley of the Dark Lords ~ Aboard shuttle ***
"Well, Elliot... I'm impressed you survived Korriban. Regardless of how--" Lana began, but was cut off when Luro commented something in his native tongue. Lana turned her gaze to her superior officer. "That may be so, commander, but he's just a boy, and if what I sense is accurate, he's been through enough already; we shouldn't force the issue."
"And I'm not," Luro said in plain basic. "Regardless, young sir, unless you'd rather be elsewhere, we will let you stay on Odessen. PK will look after you, and if you need something, just say so. Okay?"
*** Fleet Spire ruins, Corneria ***
The blast disrupted the hunter's cloaking device, and it roared in anger, extending it's wrist blades and immediately making for Fel.
As it happened, Fel wouldn't have to fight the creature; a reverberating shot rang out, and on another level, an emerald-colored dragon with a
High-Caliber Sniper Rifle in his arms stood up. The shot had struck the Yaut'ja hunter dead in the center of his head and killed it instantly, dropping it to the deck like a rock. The Dragon nodded to Fel, as though a symbol of respect, checked something on a holographic panel that appeared from his gauntlet, then tapped in a command and was whisped away in a green light consistent with a transporter.
"Slippy to Fel, I just detected an unidentified transporter signal over there - did someone just beam out?" Came Slippy's Voice moments later.
*** Corellia ***
"It's a vastly-scaled up version of a Covenant RCS-Class Armored Cruiser - three times the size of the original model with numerous modifications and upgrades, some of which are heavily-regulated tech. Borg Transwarp Coils and such. Corellia Government Contact is letting us keep the ship if we're successful, and will have everything registered upon conclusion of this op. But we gotta hurry; there may be some more unscrupulous groups looking to get their hands on this ship," Viktor explained. Upon reaching the edge of the city, and the beginning of the surrounding wilderness, Viktor hunched over in a combat stance, taking out his
RX Hybrid H7M3 and loading a fresh magazine. Looking back at Ori, he asked, "You sure you wouldn't rather have a rifle or something? I've got a few stored in my gauntlets' transporter buffers."
*** Mongdrigo, Command Center ***
Malgus nodded. "Then we mobilize. I want to see Brottleheim ended, once and for all."
"Well, that's good. Finally took my advice, huh? And speaking of old Ani, how's he doing? Still coming to grips with being a grandpa?" Ahsoka joked.
*** Tigress’ Workshop, Dragon’taan ***
"You're not wrong," Vokun said, walking out of the workshop hoping Tybalt was in tow. "You'll likely need to spend some time in recovery, as well, getting used to your new body."
*** Indari Manor, Dragon'taan ***
Anna frowned, confused. "What do you mean, this isn't Kira? Who the hell is it, then?" she asked, keeping a tight grip on the girl.
In the Manor, Kyle groggily answered the call from Tigress. "Tigress... you realize what time it is?" he asked.
*** Edge of Dragon'taan Space ***
But Vitani and her fire team didn't wait for the smoke to clear before they charged in, Disruptor Auto Rifles drilling anyone pointing a gun at them. Once the bridge was secure, Vitani deployed a counter-virus, which would bring the droids under her control, hopefully.
*** Sangheilos orbit ***
"Kaidon 'Vadam is busy at present, but has ordered a port for you open. Head down planetside to offload your cargo," replied a female Sangheili voice.
