{Bridge, USS Chuck Norris}

Mira took a seat in the Captain’s chair. It still had the odd feeling. It felt like it wasn't really hers yet. Maybe it would always feel that way? She really didn't know. What she did know was that the crew was her family, and she was going to get them home.

Eliminate threat, save her people, and get home. Yeah, she thought all good goals.

The ship started to vibrate, lightly. At first, her eyes went to Kevin to see if this was what happened last time. At his nod, she took a deep breath. That little weasel had kept his word. Hopefully, they will be sent back to the correct time.


When they hit the time, Mira thought she would lose her lunch. It started to get better. Kronnelti fired, and there was an explosion. Then, both tactical officers started firing phasers at the Gorn. "58 targets." One male voice rang out.

"Do we have any crew down there?" Mira asked, worried that the team wouldn't be able to withstand that many.

"Cave entrance is collapsed. if they are inside, then they might still be alive.

Kronnelti left the station after hearing that his crew might be inside the cave.

He went to the shuttle bay to take his weaponized shuttle.

He got in, =/\= Bravo-1 to USS Chuck Norris permission to leave bay. =/\=

Kevin looked at Mira with the wtf is he doing look.

"Only if you have back up with you. We haven't got all the Gorn and you can't remove rocks and fight them off." Mira told him before she returned her attention to the scans. It had only been the one ship?


{ Shuttle Bay }

Awal heard the thump and chime from the outer hatch. Once he released the lock from the pre-flight to depart, it opened and he watched one of the Haz Team squads file in and strap down promptly, ready to deploy right back out the hatch. One came forward to sit by the Security Chief.

"K'ner?"

The helmet retracted, revealing a smiling Deena. "K'ner? You don't want her up here Sir, she can't fly a lick. I've got your back if needed until we get down. Lt Tela has the other squad in the transporter room to pop in later if we get bored." She turns to focus on the controls, double-checking readings but leaving active control on Awal's side.

He hands off a pair of goggles and gloves to Deena, take these they are linked to my shuttle and to the weapons load out he said, get the other teams onto Bravo-2 & 3.


We will be giving both air and ground support said Kronnelti. =/\= attention haz unit, I need teams on Bravo 2 & 3 =/\= ordered Kronnelti

Deena your staying with me until you are needed on the ground.

{Bridge}

As Mira remembered something, she jumped out of the command chair and then moved to the back console, tapping in a few commands. Her breath caught in her throat, and she felt Kevin move to her side. She had located five commbadges. Her mind kept telling her just because no life signs were attached to the commbages. It doesn't mean anything they could have fallen off. Yeah, all of them.

She bit her lip. There were eight left to stand guard.... Walker came back. That left Seven. Five had no life signs, so ..... may two were in the cave?

She willed herself not to cry and fall apart. Captain’s didn't cry and fall apart..... At least not in front of the crew.
She closed her eyes. Should she call the team back? What if one or two had made it?

With the back hatch open, Kronnelti looked to the commander of the shuttle bay, he gave a thumbs up, Kronnelti closes the door.

Deena we are good for take off he said.

Delta shuttles 1 2 & 3 take off, let's make a pass first to assess the situation then relay it back to the captain said Kronnelti.

{Bridge}

Kevin looked to Mira. "The operations officer says that the comm badges are too weak for a transporter lock," Kevin explained, "There is too much rock interfering with the signal. But I could beam down with a pattern enhanced to act as a relay."

Mira shook her no, "We have a team already doing down. Things could get bad here. I can't be everywhere. If they get on the ship we are in bad trouble. Our chief of security and the haz team are there. " The ship shook. Mira eyes snapped to the screen. "What hit us?"

"We have incoming"

The Ensign at the flight conn, fresh out of the Academy, was clearly out of his depth. Kevin stepped over to the console and quietly told the Ensign that he was relieved. If Mira was determined to keep him on the ship, he was equally determine to do something productive, not just stand around waiting for orders.

As he slipped into the flight conn's seat, the console recognized him biometric signature and immediately configured itself to his preferred settings. Kevin glanced to the tactical display on the right of the console. "Looks like the Gorn are just on the planet's surface," he announced, "There are three light cruisers attempting to surround us."

Mira nodded slowly as she tried to come up with a plan. 3? She couldn't remember the strengths of there ships. Now she was really regretting letting Awal go. If the shuttle had stayed in the docking bay then she would have told Kevin to get them out of here. "Recall the ship. We are going to need help to clean this out."

Mira turned to the Chin "send out a distress call. Let both Romulan and Klingons know. Keep shields up until they return. We have to do this carefully or we will be invaded.
