Host Cat says:
Summary: The Pendragon, having followed the shuttle through the transwarp corridor, now finds herself in a ship's graveyard...in Borg space.
Host Cat says:
In front of her is a fully functional, although ratty looking Borg Cube.
Host Cat says:
Behind her, a warbird has shimmered into existence. Around her, enemy shuttles are beginning to appear out of nowhere.......
Host Cat says:
There are mines all around her...her CSO has been assimilated.....her CO is apparently stuck in the potty with a wicked case of Spacefarer's revenge......
Host Cat says:
And yet.....here there are, the strong, the brave, the insane crew of the USS Pendragon......in what could indeed be her final battle.......

@::tries to take out weapons of the pendragon::
Host CO_Rofax says:
*XO* Kymar, can you hear me?
Five_of_Many says:
@COM: Your attacks are worthless. Your resistance is worthless. The Collective is reborn and you WILL be part of it!
CNS_Luchena says:

#Self: Huh?
OPS_Pettigrove says:
::nods:: CO:  A subspace dampening field should do it ...
Host CO_Rofax says:
*CEO* Good work Chief... now find me a way to get our missing crew back off that thing.....
CNS_Luchena says:
~~~Hivemind: Regenerate.~~~
FCO_Ens_White says:
#XO: Could be it of course...I don't know any thing about the Borg.
XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
#::looks around the huge room, aiming his phaser on something he could shoot::
OPS_Pettigrove says:
*CEO*:  Pettigrove to Thraxis.  Can you set up a subspace dampening field around Lt Toms cell in the brig?  We wish to isolate him from the rest of the collective.
Host CO_Rofax says:
CNS: Mikal.... we have Edward.... are you okay?
CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
*CO*: Sir, all we can do is wait for the shuttle to blow and hope that it both takes down the Cube's shields and fails to kill our people. While those shields are up, there's no way to retrieve them.
FCO_Ens_White says:
#XO: One easy to find out ::sees the XO is already trying it and joins the XO in shooting important looking things::
Host Cat says:
Action: In the center of the room, on a table, lay an assimilated Ullian female. There are various tubes running from her head into the ship's nodes.
Host Cat says:
Action: All of the Borg are sucessfully beamed up from the BOP.
FCO_Ens_White says:
#XO: My money says that this is not the hive mind.
XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
#::spots the Ullian and walks towards the table carefully, keeping his phaser pistol trained on the body:: Ullian: Hello? Can you hear me?
Host CO_Rofax says:
::takes the helm as it shouldn't be that unfamiliar::
CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
*CO*: That should be no problem, sir, but I need to monitor the shuttle until impact. Impact in seventeen seconds.
Host Cat says:
Action: Mikal is still locked within the hivemind...and feels the females response.
OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  Captain we have beamed all life-forms off the BOP.  We have them in the brig.
Host CO_Rofax says:
OPS: Great work.   Follow my lead and lay down as much cover as you can.  All available power to forward shields.
FCO_Ens_White says:
#::Stops shooting things and looks at his tricorder scanning for communication signals::
Host Cat says:
Action: The shuttle will impact the Cube in five seconds.
Host CO_Rofax says:
::lays in a course to pass on the far side on the Cube::
Eleven_of_Twelve says:
@::tries to deflect the shuttle with tractor beams::
Host Cat says:
Action: Inside, she is screaming.
OPS_Pettigrove says:
::wonders why Engineering won't respond:: *CEO*:  Pettigrove to Thraxis.
CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
*CO*: Three seconds to impact.
CNS_Luchena says:
::eyes widen::
Host CO_Rofax says:
OPS: Open fire on their Tracor Beam.  Prepare to transport all humanoid lifesigns.
Host Cat says:
Action: The shuttle hits the Cube dead on.
Eleven_of_Twelve says:
@::uses all the power he can muster and fires on the Pendragon::
OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO:  Phasers and Torpedoes locked.  Attempting transport now!  ::fires at the TB and tries to lock onto all life forms on the cube::
Host Cat says:
Action: The explosion tears through the Cube's shielding.....and the Cube itself.
CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
*CO*: Impact! The shuttle's warp core is breaching!
Host Cat says:
Action: Eleven of Twelve is killed instantly.
CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
*CO, OPS*: Bridge, I'm on my way to the Brig now...
Host CO_Rofax says:
::makes a high velocity bank and tries to evade the shockwave::
CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
::runs for the turbolift::
OPS_Pettigrove says:
ALL: I suggest you all hang onto something ... it's gonna hit us ...
FCO_Ens_White says:
#::is thrown across the room::
XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
#::feels the impact through his bones and gets hurled through the air, keeping a grip on his phaser pistol as an automatic reaction::
Host Cat says:
Action: The shockwave picks up in intensity, as well as picking up the graveyard and mines that are littering the area.
OPS_Pettigrove says:
CO: Sir, it's picking up the debris and the mines ... if it hits us ....
CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
::stumbles and falls hard against the inside wall of the turbolift:: Self: Oof...
Host Cat says:
Action: Mikal feels the mind shudder.....
CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
TL: Brig!
CNS_Luchena says:
::would scream himself if he had any motor control::
Host CO_Rofax says:
OPS: Transfer power to the aft shields and give me whatever you can for the engines....
OPS_Pettigrove says:
::attempts to transport whoever they can off the cube::
XO_Cmdr_Kymar says:
#::crashes to the floor in a heap and groans loudly, hearing and feeling his left wrist snap::
Host Cat says:
Action: The shockwave and everything its carrying, slams into the Pendragon.
OPS_Pettigrove says:
::diverts power to aft shields and emergency power to the engines, SIF and inertial dampeners::
CNS_Luchena says:
::not having braced himself goes tumbling across the floor and hits a wall::
FCO_Ens_White says:
#::slams into something hard, feels something break and blacks out::
CEO_Ens_Thraxis says:
:: bounces around inside the turbolift like a marble in a garbage can... ::
OPS_Pettigrove says:
::cannot hang on as she is busy tapping at her console ... hits her head on her console as she is slammed forward::
Host CO_Rofax says:
::tries to maintain control of the Pen as best as possible::  OPS: Pray......
Host Cat says:
