<<OOC: Bit long, but oh well...get some tea first or something>> = /\ USS Chimera /\ ===== "ODA to Deck 4, Section A. We have intruders." came Acheson's voice over the comm. line, giving Jacks team the signal they were waiting for. Moments later the Comms lit up again with an unfamiliar voice, but then again Jack knew only a handful of people on this ship, and most of them were gearing up as the CEO's voice echoed over the comm. line. "Lt Blackburn to all ODA officers. The Simpson officers have just taken an internal sensor sweep report from our computer. They know where you are, your positions are compromised. If you regroup, they will not know this, use it to your advantage. Mike out." What? "Captain?" Corpral Kilpatrick turned to him with a Phaser rifle in his hand. "Anyone gets a shot at Blackburn....take it" Jack said turning on his heel and heading towards the door. "Lets Move out!" he grabbed a phaser rifle off the rack and headed out the door with his team bringing up the rear. Looking at his tricorder, which was linked into internal sensors, he saw that the Simpson's strike force had split into 2 groups. The first was moving slowly along deck four and the second was moving down the Jefferies tubes into the bowels of the ship. They could be going anywhere but if they were even reasonably trained officers they'd be heading for Engineering. That's where Jack would be heading at least. "Kilpatrick, take a team and head those bastards off, the rest of you follow me to main engineering. I want to make myself some friends" he muttered the end and popped open a hatch to the Jefferies tubes." "Surely it'd be best to take a turbolift Captain?" some faceless plump Starfleet recruited member of his team stared. "I don't know what you're used to Ensign, but if you want to stay on any kind of duty where you're not cleaning my boots with your tongue get your rump into that shaft and head down to engineering. double time!" he barked at Joe Schmoe whatever he be called. Once the 6 of them had made it down to Engineering he typed in an access code to access engineering and slid the door open, signalling for the ODA members to move out and secure the area. As they exited the tubes however a shot came and hit Joe schmoe in the chest, instantly he was beamed to cargo bay one where he'd be detained for the duration of the exercise. Jack didn't shout or speak, for fear that the Simpson officers might have received *some* training, if they had audio contact would give away his position. Luckily for him the rest of his officers were marines. Highly trained and highly aware of how to handle themselves in combat. Taking the knife from his boot he slouched down by the console he was taking refuge behind and looked around the corner. Putting it back in its place he looked at his officers who were ready and waiting for his orders. Signalling that he'd made visual contact with 3 Hostiles he told 2 of the marines to head upto the upper deck and take them from the rear. "You know..." Jack called aloud as he pulled the ring off of a smoke grenade. "You Guys really do suck" he let off a chuckle as he tossed it behind him and made a break for the wall. The Simpson guys took this as an opportunity to fire blindly into the smoke, giving away all 5 of their positions. Dropping to the floor he fired into a spot by the wall where he had seen a laser dispatch into his general direction and after about 4 shots he heard the transporter kick in, and then again as one of his officers shot a Simpson officer in the back. Three. Seconds later some guy came scootering upto him with a yellow collar and a phaser rifle that he seemed far too unfamiliar with. "You one of mine?" "Chief Engineer...."he merely said. "Can I help?" Jack Pondered. "Only because this is a drill, If this were the real thing I'd have you escorted from the area, for your own safety of course..." he paused and let off a few shots into the vicinity of the Simpson's guys. "Don't get me wrong, I just wont be held accountable for an improperly trained officer dieing under my command." Jack let off another few and looked up to the upper deck. "I'm sure you can find something to shoot up there." Whisky was needed. "More Officers have beamed onto the Chimera" Came Acheson's voice over the Comm. line. "Then Grab a phaser Lieutenant, there's plenty of things to shoot." Jack replied down the comm. and pulled up a real time display of the intruders on the Chimera. "Computer Activate Forcefields in these areas" he tapped the junctions on the display and then tapped his comm. Badge, which was interrupted. "Engineering secured" Came Blackburn's voice shortly after Jack heard a thud from around the corner Walking out from behind the wall Walsh looked at the unconscious body of the engineering chief. "Somebody clean this mess up." He nodded to a Private and signalled the rest of his guys to follow him. About 20 minutes later Jack and his gang were on deck 7, In pursuit of a group of Simpson's officers who were looking for the stashes of alcohol that He and Acheson had hidden all over the ship. Around the Corner he head the sound of what he thought was a crutch. Peering quickly he saw Lieutenant Blackburn with his back to Jack. "Freeze!" he pretended he didn't know who the guy was, well in all honesty the last time he saw the guy he was passed out, this could have been anyone. "Don't shoot!" Said Blackburn turning around. and with that Jack shot him and the guy dematerialized. "I said, don't move." "You guys owe me a drink" he turned to his boys who were waiting behind him with a slightly smirkish look on their faces. Their loving was short lived as a Simpson officer darted out of a door ahead of them and started firing shots at them. "Walsh to Acheson." he called into the Comm. Badge after looking at his tricorder. "Theres a hostile headed your way." After what seemed like a good long while of holding their position the CEO's voice came over the Comm. line. "This is the CHEIF Engineering Officer of the USS Chimera to all hands. Please note that Main Engineering will be off limits to wargaming officers, any intrusion will be considered an act of disobedience to direct orders and I will have you arrested. Thank you for your co-operation." "What's up with that?" Called out a Petty Officer, who to be honest was a little too forthcoming with speaking in Jacks opinion. "Its classic 'I'm not playing so nobody else can play anymore'" Jack smirked feeling glad he'd shot the guy now. "Regardless, He cant have me arrested he's only the Chief Engineer." He Let out a smirk once more before the computers voice filled the air once more. [ All intruders have been contained] "I got him." Came Acheson's voice from behind them. "Guess its our turn to give them a little payback." <<OOC: Pushing things forward.
