==[ORIGINS] USS HOOD: Discovery in the Shuttlebay== | |||
===by David Kiel=== | |||
SD 2161.088 | |||
scene: Engineering, TSS Hood | |||
The ship was a coiled and tense little monster. | |||
Security had brought everything to a head, the repairs that were needed were | |||
significant. They had a useless nacelle clinging together by burnt out power | |||
conduits and would most likely have to figure out how to jury rig a warp field | |||
with just one. Technical teams were working overtime scurrying to all corners | |||
of the ship, and security teams were too busy eyeing each other to keep watch | |||
over anyone else. | |||
Cedria had finished hew work with the shield matrixes. She could now short out | |||
or overload the entire system from any console on the ship. Her work would be | |||
discovered by the next level 3 or higher maintenance sweep but since those were | |||
done in dock she wasn't terribly worried. | |||
All she had to do was find a way out. Her ideal plan was to have Hood die | |||
against the Constellation but that opportunity didn't materialize. Still one | |||
capitol ship's death was one closer to victory, and if she had to skulk about | |||
this universe until she could remake the Tholian device she could do that. | |||
But she did not intend to wait around shipboard when the shields suddenly and | |||
conduit-shatteringly went all sparkly on the sadistic Captain Blackweasel. She | |||
was rewiring the pilots console on one of the reserve shuttles, bypassing things | |||
like remote shutdown and security protocols. She would steal the shuttle and | |||
hopefully be at warp before the other Hood had time to pound the Sovereignty's | |||
second biggest ship into the afterlife. | |||
She extricated herself and looked over the controls, powering up the display to | |||
check her work. A few taps and a cycle of the command parameters and she | |||
was—c-click— | |||
Cedria's eyes narrowed and she got very still as the phaser at the back of her | |||
head whined to life. | |||
"And what might you be up to?" She recognized the voice. The engineer, named | |||
after a terran fish. Pike, was it? Salmon? | |||
The voice of the XO sounded from the shuttle entrance in a sharp but hushed | |||
whisper. "Find her, Gar?" | |||
"Yeah, she's been tampering with the shuttle controls." | |||
She heard the sound of a communicator from the XO. "We found Zade, Captain. I | |||
mean Quall." | |||
She moved suddenly, lithe body twisting, the base of her hand hitting the butt | |||
of the phaser making it clatter to the deck. One of her knives flipping to her | |||
other palm, her blade lashing at fish-man's throat,-- and stopping just short of | |||
his skin. The metallic purple sheen of the poison on her blade reflecting the | |||
shuttles overhead lights in an oily rainbow of colors. | |||
She looked up at Lieutenant Gar and over at the XO who was now pointing a weapon | |||
at her from the hatchway. "What did you mean, Zade?" | |||
NRPG: Tag for either Brian or Scott, whoever gets to it first; or technically | |||
Andrew if he wants to play a voice on a communicator. Marching me through the | |||
ship to see the Captain might blow my cover after all. Then Cedria will have to | |||
fight her way back to the shuttlebay and kill everyone in her path. That would | |||
take me a couple posts, way too much work. | |||
Respectfully submitted; | |||
