Scene: Bridge<br> | |||
"This isn't a decision I can make. I'm Captain of a small ship out | |||
on the frontier. You must know that the Federation and Starfleet does | |||
not bargain with terrorists..." | |||
[We are not terrorists! We are fighters of a just cause and will | |||
not be treated as common thugs.] | |||
"I'm sorry I did not mean to belittle you. All I am saying is | |||
that this issue is bigger than I'm prepared to handle. I must contact my | |||
superiors. It will take no more than one hour." | |||
The terrorist leader sneered back at Zane. [I had heard that | |||
Starfleet officers were proud and strong, masters of their destiny. It | |||
seems that in this case I have heard incorrectly. I do not care that you | |||
are incapable of making a decision by yourself. I will not delay our | |||
quest any longer.] | |||
"At least give me a few minutes to consult with my officers. You | |||
must realize that the potential for a misstep leading to many deaths is | |||
large. I want a peaceful resolution to this." | |||
[Very well,] he frowned, clearly disgusted with Zane. [I will | |||
give you five minutes for your officers to tell you that your only | |||
decision is the one I have offered.] The screen went blank. | |||
Zane turned to Sr'qwon. "I want cannisters of anesthesine gas | |||
beamed over to that ship centering on the bridge, engineering and | |||
the prisoner holding centers as well as the main life support systems. | |||
It should take no more than 5 seconds to render everyone on board | |||
unconscious. Then beam over with your personnel and apprehend the | |||
terrorists. And make it quick, I want this all to happen before the five | |||
minutes are up." | |||
"Aye sir." She replied and raced from the bridge. | |||
"What about Krysa? When his men find out we've captured | |||
everyone..." Jerran asked. | |||
"Our first duty is to the civilians on that ship. We can't let | |||
one hostage, even Krysa, take precedent over the others. And perhaps | |||
Krysa will be safer if we have a few hostages of our own." Zane replied | |||
hoping that was true. | |||

Timeframe: 8 minutes later<br> | |||
[Sr'qwon to FEYNMAN. The terrorists have been captured, ship is | |||
secure.] | |||
"Good work Lieutenant! We'll beam aboard a tech party to staff | |||
the bridge until the OLYMPIA's crew recovers from the gas. Have your | |||
prisoners beamed directly to the brig. I'll join you there. FEYNMAN out." | |||
Zane started towards the turbolift. "Mr. Jerran you have the bridge." | |||
<<<NRPG>>> | |||
Andrew: Feel free to post your team's exploits on the OLYMPIA | |||
Kris: Hmmm, I remember you mentioning accidents may happen as a route to | |||
the CO slot. I'd hate to see your captors do anything rash.<BEG> | |||
