Bloody Thy Art,Bloody Will Be Thy End....

Pilots Log: Angelis,John,A.,Lt.Jg.

 

Following the fighter group,A&B squadrons on a hasty retreat from their encounter with a Romulan ship that had suddenly decloaked and began an attack on the Reaent,the ship was a size and type he had only heard rumors of through the grapevine in various discussions among other fighter groups that had the opportunity to meet one in battle,this ship was an absolute physical manifestation of a nightmarish monster..complete with fangs,and horrid claws lashing out as if to devour all it contacted.

 

I still do not understand completely the rapid sequence of events that have transpired,here I was in the pilots lounge with Zafira,DA,and our fellow pilots having a drink..."Wham",the next thing we all knew was being rocked,and alerted to scramble the fighters,making it to the fighter bay we all clambered into our respective units,and for a lack of a better word took to space like a nest of angered hornets whose nest had been whacked by a stick,a big stick..Zafira was in the lead as group lead,DA with Alpha formed up,I formed up with Bravo squadron,we then implemented a group split,taking offensive positions to begin an attack run,I took part of bravo and proceeded to put us between the Reaent and the vessel and formed a defensive wedge when in position we began our assault.

 

The pummeling the Reaent was taking was a devastating sight to behold,even while the combined forces of the squadrons were throwing all we had at that cursed thing,like a huge juggernaut it kept pressing on,another torpedo entered the neck of the ship,tearing a gaping wound as if the vessel were going for the jugular vein going for the kill,then another hit,then another...the damage looked massive from my position in the cockpit as I and the group turned into the Romulan beast,why didn't the Reaents Shields hold,the screens should have held,it was apparent not all was right with the ship,all we could do was attempt to intercept,possibly divert their attention while the captain and crew of the Reaent could move out of harms way,I can only imagine the damage,and loss in our crew casualties.

 

I had only two torpedos left in my fighter inventory,and was on my final run when I received the recall and rally order to regroup with the ship,bravo was instructed to finish their runs,and to follow the order,I had an idea...make a run directly at what appeared as the bridge of that behemoth,deliver my ordnance,possibly give us a few precious seconds to gain an exit,well as expected there appeared to be minimal,if any damage to the ship,I can only hope it blinded that thing just long enough,perhaps rattled their sensors for a moment...I pulled up hard,and punched it,climbing out and away to the coordinates I had gotten from our group leader,and the Reaent,contacted Zafira,and DA, flying now with full aft scans going,...I swear we will have our day of reckoning,that ship...bloody thy art,and bloody will be thy end.,Computer End Log:...beep.
