Krazny thought... why not? He engaged the emergency transporter band he'd
stuffed in his empty tricorder holster, and returned to the STENNIS's
bridge, and turned it against the strain of the EAGLE's tractor beam...
Suddenly, he cut loose with all the phasers, having physically moved to
the tactical station. The direct hit disabled the rogue fighter, but it
was still drifting toward his ship at two thirds impulse. He had less
than a minute to rig a repulsor beam, and managed to engage it... just as
the fighter breached the EAGLE's shields and the INDEPENDENCE beamed him
aboard.
The Captain of the INDEPENDENCE fumed, "WHAT were you trying to DO?"
"I wasn't trying, I did it. Saved the STENNIS!"
Just then the SHERMAN could be seen, its phasers lancing out and hitting
the disabled fighter, and the fighter exploded. Unfortunately, it blew
the entire drive section of the STENNIS to shreds, but fortunately the
saucer... and its Spotlight sensor array... were untouched by the explosion.
The EAGLE rocked at the explosion which destroyed half of the ship it was
now towing sideways, and attempted to make its thrusters fire, but to no
avail. Now they'd have to turn it, the Spotlight array could only 'shine'
forward...
NRPG: Interesting twist, eh? I wanted to try to save the STENNIS, or at
least the part of it with the sensor array. I didn't deal with the other
2 fighters, and we still have the mothership...
BTW, I expect no congratulations, but one of my other charachters made
LtJG earlier today.
