As the Future Burns (Victory): Difference between revisions

The USS Victory had spent two weeks on shore leave at [[Starbase 118]], and after some interesting interviews from Starfleet Intelligence, they were cleared and allowed to begin shore leave.  The crew got the rest they need and once the USS Victory was ready, they began to make their way back to the Tempest Sector. On the way, they received a distress call from what appeared to be the USS Victory. They found an Intrepid class ship, and after no response [[Eerie|Lt. Cmdr Eerie]] took an away team and found Captain Sundassa Faranster and a few other survivors. This Victory was from the future. It appeared that the ship came from a future star-date in 2414.

The future Victory was in horrible shape and the crew was then evacuated to the present day Victory before their own ship was destroyed. Commander [[Nugra]] and Captain Faranster quickly spoke and found that in the future, their nemesis, the Hunger, had destroyed the known galaxy and the reason she had come back into the past was to destroy their ability to enter the galaxy before they unleashed their terror on the known species.

As the mission progressed, the USS Victory found itself engaged in operations against the Hunger that have been using a Yeltan teleport gate to infiltrate the galaxy.  The Victory used an old slipstream corridor from Dagaro to the Duronis System, to find the gate and a small Hunger ship. Before the crew could prepare for a proper reaction, Captain Sundassa Faranster beamed her team aboard to set explosives, forcing Commander Nugra to send Lieutenant Commander Eerie and his away team to support them. Now, engaged in a struggle with a vastly superior foe, the Victory must survive long enough to recover their team and make their escape.

The Victory was able to use Quantum torpedoes to distract the sensors of the hunger vessel and break free from the grip that it had fastened on the intrepid class starship while the teams on the Portal were able to detonate their explosives. The Victory and the Laudean Squadron that came to their rescue made their escape from the massive shockwave and though the portal was destroyed, it is unknown if the Hunger vessel successfully entered or it had been consumed in the fires of the explosion.  

Over a matter of months, the remnant empires that had pulled together were devastated and the last galaxy wide organized resistance ended at the battle for Starbase 118. The [[USS Excalibur-A]], [[USS Columbia]], [[USS Gemini]] among other ships were destroyed in this three day battle, but in the end nobody escaped.
