Kinney: ::Darkly:: Yes.  ::He pushed a PADD across the desk that had a bland summary of Arrhimen's statement:: I think I just sent an aging ship of children into a lion's den.
Sarin::arched a perfect Vulcan brow. He never favored human turns of phrase, and many metaphors simply escaped him.:: The Albion is perfectly serviceable, and last I checked all officers and crew were well above the age of majority.  ::He deadpanned.::

Kinney: ::Waving a hand in the air:: Technicalities. An old ship, a new commander and new officers in key areas is a recipe for disaster.  ::he frowned:: I sent those kids out on an expedited launch with little warning and no planning time because I thought this would be a cakewalk. Beat Arrhimen there, talk him down. Simple.  ::He leaned back, his countenance going dark:: This is no longer simple.

Act I: An Expedited Launch

"No Commanding officer got a crew readied at this hour and in this space of time, without good reason. And that's what concerned Freya. She did wondered what they were going into - but they would all know soon enough." -Freya Andersen, Security

Haz Arrhimen, Starfleet renegade With Captain Leo Handley-Page still on board the roster but on sabbatical to Byzallium to tend to the monstrous transformations that afflicted his sister and best friends, Commander Sal Taybrim stepped up to Starfleet's call when the Cheyenne class USS Stormcrow went missing from repair dock at DS85. With an expedited launch at 0500 hours, the crew of the USS Albion had to wake up and hustle to get the old girl warping off to the Valdis colony in time. Fortunately the crew gets some breathing room shortly after launch, enough time for Acting Captain Taybrim to introduce two new crew members: Chief Engineer Lieutenant Theo Whittaker and Tactical officer Lieutenant Tatash. Once the Albion is safely at warm, the crew gathers in an early morning briefing. At least there's fresh coffee and pastries! (Something which cements the pastry addiction of the action commanding officer in the minds of his crew.) The crew finds out that their mission is to intercept the USS Stormcrow before it gets to Romulan space. Starfleet believes that the Stormcrow will attack the defenseless Romulan Valdis colony in an act of war. As the crew express shock and dismay at this, Commander Taybrim goes on to explain that the Captain of the Stormcrow is Haz Arrhimen, the same Haz Arrhimen that insisted they investigate the destruction of the SS Annabelle's Lament and the death of his younger brother. Since Arrhimen left spacedock he's refusing to answer hails and looks intent on committing an act of war. As the Albion speeds towards the Valdis colony, they receive a call from Lt Commander James Thorn of the USS Tribal, a fast frigate on patrol of the Romulan neutral zone. Thorn and his crew have been informed of Arrhimen's actions by Starfleet command, and the Tribal is close enough to the Valdis colony to lend aid to the Albion, an offer which Commander Taybrim is happy to accept. However, unknown to either one of them Captain Arrhimen has intercepted their communication and moves to engage the Tribal. About an hour after the conversation between the Tribal and the Albion, the Stormcrow attacks, badly damaging the USS Tribal. Thorn sends out a distress call, and while the Albion cannot spare the ship to assist her, they do launch a medical and marine contingent to lend aid n a trio of arrow class shuttles. Meanwhile Starfleet Command in the trinity sector gets word on just how violently serious Haz Arrhimen is, prompting Commodore Allan Kinney to question how wise it was to launch an old ship with a new crew into a dangerous battle. Notable Sims Rude Awakening The USS Albion is set on an expedited launch at 0500 hours Dead in Space The USS Stormcrow attacks the USS Tribal, leaving her dead in space Act II: A Vicious Battle "Me and my crew of the Stormcrow are those Patriots and we will water the tree of liberty with green blood of the tyrants." -Haz Arrhimen The USS Albion fights a tense battle The Albion reached the Valdis colony shortly before the Stormcrow, but they were ambushed in their search when the Stormcrow hit them under cover of the nearby Valdis nebula. The two ships engaged in a vicious firefight which led to the crippling of the Stormcrow, and major damage to the Albion. The majority of the Stormcrow's skeleton crew launched on life boats which were intercepted by the Albion crew, but over a dozen crew were left onboard. The Albion sent a search and rescue party to the Stormcrow, to retrieve injured crew and retrieve information from the Stormcrows computer banks before the ship's life support completely failed; but they found that the Romulans were equally interested in plundering the Stormcrow as a Romulan warbird decloaked, demanding salvage and Haz Arrhimen be delivered to them. Security teams on the Albion were successful in rescuing the rest of the survivors, but when they tried to access the computer core they set off a trap that Captain Arrhimen set in the core system, trigging a self destruct. In the end the Albion only gleaned a small amount of what secrets Arrhimen may have held. Onboard the Albion the survivors were kept in the brig but Haz Arrhimen demanded to speak to the Albion's Commanding officer. When Taybrim agreed to meet with him, Arrhimen uncovered that he wasn't going to attack the Valdis colony with phasers and torpedos; but with a biochemical agent that was already released on the planet. In his madness, Arrhimen said that the entire crew of the Albion would be infected and die as well; but the Albion's medical officers quickly disproved this finding that his bioweapon was only effective against copper blooded species in general and Romulans in particular. Unfortunately allowing Arrhimen out of a secured brig environment combined with the damage the Albion had sustained left him open to be scanned and transported away. Seconds after he beamed out the Romulan warbird cloaked and left the area. It was unclear whether Arrhimen was captured by the Romulans or had some plan up his sleeves to flee them; though the official report leans towards the former. The rest of Arrhimen's crew were secured; his chief science officer among them. She agreed to give over the genetic and biochemical sequences of the bio weapon in exchange for clemency. The Albion was able to synthesize an antidote to the weapon used against the Valdis colony and offered both the antidote and the formula for synthesizing more to the planetary governor; thus preventing an act of war. The Albion met up with the USS Tribal, retrieved all teams and offered full medical aid to all Starfleet officers and in turn both ships were escorted back to SB118 by the USS Avalon.
