== [ Asteroid ] ==== "On of us will have to go get the shuttle.While the other hooks up with the rest of the away team and finds a way to get our comms to work." Gary paused slightly "You go sir. Should something happen you should report back to the ship what we have seen here. Any way My head hurts too much to take much more running. And with any luck the other team has found something of the Kzenti we can use against them." Jack was going to contest and overrule the Ops Spc. But what could he do? Send Williams? He wasn't too sure that the man was going to make it out of this mission alive, putting the whole teams lives in his hands wasn't something he was comfortable doing at the moment, Williams could collapse again any moment. Helping Garry up he nodded and told him to set the charge. He nodded to the rest of the team as he took a deep breath and prepped himself. he opened the sack on his back and let it hang down by his hip. Holstering his rifle he took a charge in his hand and began to run. He rounded the corner and dropped the charge to the floor. He ran further, taking another charge from the bag and slapped it to the wall as he ran past. A bit further another charge, and another and another. Williams would be doing the same thing. When they were on their way out the charges could be remotely detonated. Jack was running pretty fast now, but he could feel a tenseness in his chest as he picked up pace. Damn Summers, when she was right, she was right so it seemed. He ran around the corner, promising that he'd get himself looked at when he made it back, if he did. Famous last words perhaps because as he ran around the corner he got a face full of Kzenti fist which sent him sailing right back to the other side of the corridor. Dazed and confused Jack picked himself up quickly and planted a punch in the soldiers face, with little effect. Figures. The soldier punched Jacks chest and he groaned in pain, more so when the cybernetic beast thrust him into the roof above his head and back to the floor. Blood was trickling down Jacks face as he was about to give up, when a hole in the Kzenti soldier made itself clear. Jack looked up from the floor to see Simpson looking at him with a cheeky grin. "Corporal!" Jack mussed pulling himself up slowly. "Why aren't you on the ship!" "Figured you could use my help, and the Chimera sent us a bag of tricks to deal with these guys." he pointed to an arm band he was wearing. Oh. "I was about to head outside to try and get a comm. signal with the shuttle. The team needs extraction, we're about to blow this place." "It's ok Captain. I've got a transponder beacon set up at the airlock. Its the only place I could get a signal through the Jamming." he helped stabilise Jack a bit, it looked like he might fall. Jack sighed with relief slightly before he pulled a charge and dropped it on the Kzenti. "Sweet dreams" he laughed almost as the two men made their way back to the airlock, and onto the shuttle. Once they were onboard Jack took up residence at the weapons station. They wouldn't have much time and once they come out of the asteroid that they had hidden the shuttle aboard, they were going to have to deal with the Kzenti weapons platforms again. He commed Lt. McKnight and got himself an update on the situation. He informed Jack that all the charges were in place. He let them know that on his mark they were going to blow half of the charges and get everyone aboard, then blow the final charges. They waited for a moment, he wasn't sure why. It seemed appropriate. He nodded to Simpson, blew the charges and watched as the asteroid began to spin slightly askew from its former rotation. Explosions made themselves known and Simpson took the shuttle out of the asteroid adjacent to the research station. Jack set the transporter to beam out three at a time, the maximum that a shuttle transporter could handle. Cortez, Williams and McKnight were the last out, Garry was incapacitated again and lets face it, it was becoming a regular thing. Punching the charges again he watched with almost, glee as the asteroid began to crumble and blew. The shuttle riding on the shockwave sailed onwards, the shockwave caused a slight feedback in the shield matrix however and as a result Jacks console blew sending him to the floor and adjitating the chest injury received earlier on further than it was prepared to go. The med Spec. rushed over to her Commander. "He's going into anaphylactic shock, we need to get him to sickbay." She said trying to help him. "The chimera is thirty seconds away, Commander Summers is being made aware of the situation and is ready to recieve him when we're in transporter range..." McKnight nodded from the cockpit. == MCaptain Jack Walsh ODA Commanding Officer USS Chimera, SSF
