The call for help
| Captain Va Remy: Commander, we request immediate assistance. We are receiving reports of several attacks along the border. There have been reports of issues with pirates near the border in the past. Please help us. We are a small outpost, but our work.. I believe it’s only a matter of time before they target us. We will hold them off as long as we can.
Officer: Captain, they are shooting at the Communications rela– The last thing Akeelah saw was the Captain’s hand come down as if to slam it down but before it reached the destination the screen went blank. [1] |
Hermes Information
Hermes Station is located in a small system about thirty light years from Cait. It had some fixed weapons that were destroyed in the initial attack. The station is mostly ground-based on the only M-class planet in the system, the planet is small - just so a planet. Features include the central structure, a large communications array, and several orbital telescopes and sensor platforms. The station is a communications hub for the Marchlands and surrounding areas, that helped coordinate activities across the southern sectors of the Federation. Its sensors also allow for large amounts of data gathering for both scientific and intelligence purposes. With close proximity to a Federation world and the Tholians typically avoiding that section of the border, the station has been assigned a very limited on-site presence for some time.
- Commanding Officer: Cpt. Ve Remy
Act 1
While on shore leave the USS Constitution receives a call for help from the Commanding Officer of the Hermes Outpost. Captain Ve mentions reports of pirate attacks along the border that divides the Federation and Tholian space in the recent months. The call is interrupted after the station's communications relay is attacked and the Constitution jumps into action. Upon arrival they witness several ships attacking the orbital installations and the Outpost itself and engage into battle. [2]
Weekly Summaries
Week/Hour 1
Argo buggy races on Drever IV were unexpectedly canceled after the Constitution received a distress call from the Hermes Outpost. Hermes outpost is located in a small system about thirty light years from Cait. It is a communications hub for the Marchlands and surrounding areas that helped coordinate activities across the southern sectors of the Federation. Its sensors also allow for large amounts of data gathering for both scientific and intelligence purposes.
Captain Va Remy, the outpost’s Bajoran CO, reported attacks by suspected pirates along the border and requested assistance. The comm was cut off, however, when the relay they were using was destroyed.
When everyone was back onboard and at their stations, the Conny wasted no time headed for the outpost. They arrived to find the outpost under attack. Commodore Jalana Rajel issued the orders to fire and the battle to protect the outpost began. After the pirates managed to inflict damage to part of the outpost, LtCmdr Atan T'Seva and LtCmdr Diz'Mim Ch'Nilmani worked to devise a way to distract the largest ship. Meanwhile, Lt Mingxing Shimisi and Ensign Jiroo Zaka tried to find a way to beam supplies to the damaged outpost and down in sickbay Doctors Ashra and Park worked to prepare for injuries.
Over in Intel, Cmdr T’Mar, Senior Commander Nugra, LtJG Tann Ilix, and LtCmdr Laria Herren worked to find out more information on who the attackers are.
Week/Hour 2
The battle for the Hermes outpost is in full swing. Small pirate ships continue to attack the orbital installations and have begun to attempt to scratch the Conny's hull, as she has thrown herself in the middle of the attacking vessels in an attempt to give the outpost a breather from the pressure of continuous attacks.
Ensign Jiroo Zaka, the new engineering officer found that the structural damage of the outpost was severe and they were already on backup power. did not believe the Shields would be lasting much longer and suggested beaming teams down to help. Alas the Conny needed those teams themselves to stay in one piece. Instead they opted for aid in form of automated worker drones until a team can be spared.
Minxing Shimisi in engineering has been working on prepping said worker drones to deliver urgent supplies to the station to try and buy it more time.
Based on the data, Lt.JG Lystra and T'Seva are sure that there is a carrier or type of mothership out there supporting the smaller attacking ships and the struggle was trying to find where it is hiding. They didn't have to wait long until that ship showed itself by zapping past the Constitution and opening heavy fire on the Outpost, destroying part of the structure. The Conny crew had to act quickly and First Officer Diz'mim Ch'Nilmani offered a Wild Weasel maneuver. A Shuttle would be equipped with mobile sensor equipment emitting another Galaxy Class signature to confuse enemy sensors into believing that more help had arrived.
After agreement of Commodore Jalana Rajel, he contacted Rachel Flores, in engineering who would prepare the shuttle, and the was expanded on by stuffing the shuttle full of explosives to hand out some BOOM should the pirate ship open fire on the 'Galaxy Class'. That plan worked out well and the Pirate Mothership took considerable damage. We have yet to see if it is enough to chase them away.
Sick bay has been busy preparing for injured, while several teams have been moving out to treat injuries from exploding consoles and other battle damage. Counselor Ba'el meanwhile is trying to find patterns in the attacks from the bridge to find out motives and gaps the Conny could use.
Who is attacking? Why are they so interested in knockout out the Communication Outpost? These are the biggest questions, and the intelligence Department with Laria Herren, Nugra, Ilix, and T'Mar are trying to find that out, so that Jalana has all the pieces to the puzzle!
