T'San walked on to the bridge and took the first officers seat next to the captain. She opened communications, "All stations report in." She turned to the captain. "Our away team is preparing in the shuttlebay, sir. Orson told us we need to take the Juno in first to divert the attention from the awayteam, sir. Do you think she can handle that?"
"Commander don't forget who the Captain is here. Never insult the Juno, you know she can! And Commander, its great to see you in your own body again. We all can have an ounce of normalcy here." Said Harry with a grin on his face. He was trying to be comical more than serious.
"It is good to be in my own body, sir," Said T'San, and I will never forget, sir. I never doubted her a second. I just wanted to make sure." She raised an eyebrow. "Either that or I am still adjusting to my own body again."
Harry grinned, as he looked over to Avril. "Alright Miss Taylor, you heard the lady, we need to warp in, cause a panic and pull their forces from the planet to chase us." Suggested Harry.
"One panic coming up sir." Avril said as she started to navigate the the USS Juno's course. She plotted a course close to the planet, but still far enough out, to plot an escape vector. Once she felt great about her choice, she said to the captain. "course plotted captain, just give the word."
"Miss Jexen, we will need a nebula to loose our tail, once we get the attention of enemy forces, please scan the area." Ordered Harry. He would have asked Xalanth, but he was preparing for the mission to rescue to the Federation citizens.
Kimoni's fingers ran across her console, scanning the sector in the hopes of finding something they could use.
"We have a relatively small nebula three point four light years away, heading Two Three Six by Zero Four Eight. It should be enough to hide us from their sensors, at least for a while. We can't hide in there for too long however. I'd say we'd have at most Two hours before they track us down."
"We only need a couple of hours, thank you Miss Jexen. That should be enough time to allow Commander Bers team to rescue the hostages." Harry said, as he walked over to the helmsman station.
"I'll do what I can to make us a smaller sensor presence. That should give us a little more time at least, but at best I can get us thirty minutes extra."
"Miss Jexen, you are amazing." He said, still a little annoyed that Jexen made his life a living hell, when he was trapped in her body. Why didn't T'San have as many medical complications? This was really not the time or place to be distracted. He needed to stay focus.
"Miss Taylor, prepare to alter course." Harry said as the USS Juno continued to head towards her primary target. He was eager, to get the mission over with.
"Making the course correction to head to the Nebula that Miss Jexen has pointed to us, we are ready to go on your order, Captain." She said, wanting to get the federation citizens out of harm.
"Thank you Miss Taylor." He said as he walked over to his chair looking at T'San. Then tapped on his com-badge.
"Commander Bers, Lieutenant Xalanth and Captain Dilucca, are you ready to go?" Asked Harry, as he waited for his first officer to give the all clear, so he could order the USS Juno into position.
"We're starting the launch sequence now, captain." Charlena looked a moment to Bers who had taken the helm. "Open bay doors, permission to disembark, sir?"
"Lets do get our people." Bervag said. "Ready, Mr Xalanth?" he asked. "Granted, Captain." he grinned.
"Let's ride the fire." Xalanth responded grinning. Time to do what he did best.
"Miss Taylor, engage." Harry said.
The USS Juno, started to head towards the planet, which allowed Commander Bers team to head down towards the planet. The plan went smoothly, several forces from the Crescent chased the USS Juno, as planned. They headed to the nebula, to keep the enemy focused on finding them.
