=/\= Tac Station =/\= The bridge was dark, except for the intermittent flash of red lights throughout the entire room. He stood at his station in combat ready mode, with an array of weapons at his command. The Romulan starship stood in front of the Chimera, bearing her mighty weapons forward, ready to pound her. Acheson could only wonder if that was a real Romulan warbird. Maybe it was some sort of facimile. Then again, maybe his existence was merely a pasttime of an omnipotent and sadistic narrator. He gripped his console firmly as the ship rocked from Romulan fire. "Forward shield down to 90 %" Acheson announced. The romulan ship was already moving and flying about the Chimera was trying to hit it again. "Warning shoots Mr. Acheson" Shane ordered and fastly made his way back to teh CO's seat. Acheson looked down and fired, using the phasers at 10 percent power. "Warning shot fired." The ship rocked as the warbird released another volley. {Shit} Shane cursed mentally. "Target the Warbird's weapon systems and fire" Shane ordered. "Yes, sir." Acheson scanned the warbird and, using Starfleet Intelligence, aimed at the disruptor away. He fired, releasing phasers and quantum torpedos. The weapons hit their target with merciless accuracy. "Enemy shields at 85%." The ship continued to rock. "Sir, we need to get back. Helm, reverse course, full impulse!" Lt York looked back at Acheson sheepishly. He looked to Guzman for confirmation, which was given with a nod. The ship rushed back, to the dismay and confusion of the Romulan ship. Was the Chimera running away, cowardly? "Recommend we use maneuver alpha charlie 1." Guzman nodded and the helmsman engaged. The maneuver had the Chimera move above the Romulan ship and fire below. Nathan could only smile as he saw a clear shot from above on the Warbird. He fired freely, striking the warbird's top with phasers and torpedos. It was able to rotate, though, and it fired back, hitting the Chimera several times. He felt the ship rock and consoles near him start to spark. "Shields at 80%!" he called out. The actual damage reports would be coming in from the Ops . +TAPS+ Acheson to Engineering, can you increase the quantum torpedo loading rate. They're taking forever to reload up here!" He fired again, striking the warbird. "Sir, permission to target their systems at my discretion. Their weapons are heavily shielded." =/\= END LOG =/\= MCapt Acheson CTAC USS Chimera -- ___________________________________________________________ Sign-up for Ads Free at Mail.com http://promo.mail.com/adsfreejump.htm
