Summary:  
Unexpected events on the station shifts the odds a bit in favor of the Rebels while the Nighthawk crew take what advantage they can before it is removed.  And once again, the captain takes the ship where no man should logically go…?

Time Lapse:
    none

Mission Facts:
•	That warship is not disabled and can take the Nighthawk on one handed and blind.  You do not have any command codes for it.
•	None of the ships around the station left before mayhem struck.  Two have been taken destroyed due to events.
•	Ships have returned at the call for help.

Announcements:
•	The Mirror Finalé will be on Sunday, May 4th, during the Andromeda/Elara mission times.
•	Please, it would be nice to leave the NH all in order and her story complete.  If you owe logs, please get them in.
•	April 26th/27th mission will be cancelled due to birthdays, work and LOA.

Last week on the Nighthawk:

Knight taking in the stolen Klingon vessel as a decoy was a success, but it came at a high price for the Betazoid.  He was beamed off the ship, but not in time to prevent massive burns across his body.  He is in medical being treated by Varesh while Rose keeps Aiden away from medical… but who is going to keep Rose away?

Before the explosion, a warship came in taking the stations attention away from the significant Klingon vessel.  The warship was having engine problems and is working on backup power, but there is nothing wrong with their weapons.  To add to the Nighthawk's benefit, an explosion occurred near Earth; possibly the rebel vessels, the EK'ara.

While this could mean a loss for the rebel cause, it is and unexpected help for the Nighthawk as they take advantage of the situation and enter the stations command codes immediately shutting off the stations life support system and opening all exterior doors.  The station quickly reacts and bulkheads fall into place, but not before loss of pressure, air and people.

The station has sent out an automotive distress call and ships in the vicinity, including the one recently repaired and recently left have turned around to return.  Their sensor array had been damaged.  Their stations crew rushed around to seal what they could; those that cannot help are making their way to the various ships in repair to defend the station.  The slaves have their own idea of things…

On the stations command center, those there suddenly realize they have intruders to deal with as Jackson and his force beam aboard.  As they defend themselves, the CSO continues taking control of the station through the use of the command codes for as long as she can, before someone realizes what has been going on…

Sid Monroe Stardate 10804.19: I hope we can pull this off but with the distress signal sent our odds just went from good to ok.  I hope to get the station secured quickly so we can turn the tides on this really grim situation

Brianna Rose says:
:: Sitting on the cold floor of engineering as she tries to process what Varesh has told her.  Was it all for nothing?  And she was to keep Aidan busy?  She wanted to do anything but.::
 Sid Monroe says:
::Checks the sensors for any large ships coming, stands up from his chair::
Varesh says:
::feels Brianna's conflicts - the ship was tiny after all::
Brianna Rose says:
:: She had lost too much with all of this, she was not about to just stay away.  Why should she?  Why should Aidan?::
Varesh says:
::nods at the medic:: Med: We've got him stabilized, so start with deep tissue regeneration. I need to get back to the bridge Call me if there are any complications.
 Sid Monroe says:
::Spots two blips on the sensors::
Brianna Rose says:
:: With that decision, she pulls herself off the floor and heads out of her small domain to medical.::
Varesh says:
::heads to the comm:: *Rose*: Brianna, I know what you're planning, but there is nothing you can do in sickbay right now. I'll get someone to talk to Aidan, you stay in engineering. We need you there now, or it means nothing to anybody what Aaron just went through.
Brianna Rose says:
:: Stops in mid-step as Varesh's comm comes through and glares at the door opening in front of her.::
Varesh says:
::changes his tone to a plead:: *Rose*: I'm sorry but things are hairy right now. You can beat me up for it later.

ACTION: On the command station, Jackson's team fights for their lives.  While surprise had been on their side, numbers were on the stations side.

Brianna Rose says:
:: Turning angrily back around::  *Varesh*:  and don't think I won't hold you to that.  And if he dies...   :: she left the phrase unsaid as she heard the tears in her voice.::
Varesh says:
*Rose*: I'll stand still for you and Aidan. Believe me I don't want him to die either.
Brianna Rose says:
:: Stomping back to the main panel, her footsteps rang loudly.  She ignored her aide who slipped out, mumbling about needing a bit of air.::
Varesh says:
::sighs knowing she's not happy with him at the moment:: Medic: I'll be back soon.
Brianna Rose says:
:: For a moment, she stares at the console, tears swimming in her eyes::  You promised me Aaron... and you have never broken a promise yet... and neither will I if you die on me.
Brianna Rose says:
:: Reaching up to dash the tears away, she focuses on what she needs to do - keep this vessel in one piece so she can take a few swings at both men.  After all, one did have their priorities.::
Varesh says:
::heads to the bridge and arrives much too soon to his liking:: Sid: Where do you want me? Flight or tactical?

ACTION: As station crew make their way to the various ships in various stages of repair, power readings spike as they go quickly online.
 
Sid Monroe says:
Varesh: Flight, we will need to get out of here in a jolt if needed.
Varesh says:
::sits down at the console:: Sid: I'll be ready.
 
ACTION: Tulpen continues to take various station functions offline.  She is focusing on the stations power control center.

ACTION: The stations patrol ship turns around and starts to head for the station.

Varesh says:
::taps the controls on the console making sure they have an escape vector::
 Sid Monroe says:
::Walks to the tactical console:: All: What we are about to do is going to be considered suicide, but we are going to either take that station over or blow it up.  Varesh: Take us in hot and fast.  Tulpen: Transfer the station weapons systems to my console.
Varesh says:
::blinks:: Sid: Any particular quadrant?
 Sid Monroe says:
Varesh: Take us to quadrant A-3
Varesh says:
Sid: Aye. ::sets the course::
Varesh says:
Sid: Course ready.
 
ACTION: In the stations command center, a stall has occurred... but for how much longer?

 Sid Monroe says:
Tulpen: Send a feedback loop into the power grid to the docked ships and blow them up,
 
ACTION: As Tulpen moves to comply, the Klingon vessel recently left returns and the warship begins to search for the cause of the problem.

Varesh says:
Sid: Shall we go in?
 Sid Monroe says:
Varesh: Give it a minute, ::Waits for the explosions::
 
ACTION: Surprise for Jackson comes from an unexpected source as a group of slaves makes their way onto the command center.

ACTION: One of the vessels the station had been working on suddenly blows, rocking the station.
 
Sid Monroe says:
::Watches the explosion:: Varesh: Now.
Varesh says:
::hits the controls and guides the ship towards the quadrant Sid indicated::

ACTION: A station engineer realizing something is not natural and begins to work on command codes.

ACTION: Control for the command center becomes a brutal and bloody battle.  A beam falls from the station, pinning down Jackson.

ACTION: As the Nighthawk brings the engines online, they light up the various ships sensors.

Varesh says:
Sid: I think we just lit up like a Christmas tree.
 Sid Monroe says:
::Nods::  Varesh: Let's give them something to think about.  ::Launches torpedoes towards the ships::
Varesh says:
::aims the ship towards the station:: Sid: I guess a few shots will be fired?
 
ACTION: As the Nighthawk launches a torpedo it hits the vessel closest to them, one of the ships being built, quickly disintegrating the vessel.  At the same time, the warship turns its weapons onto the Nighthawk.
