A time for all Aegis!

[Seiben 0]

Bloodied, but mobile Seiben roams around his new surroundings with his group, still picking out sharp pieces of shrapnel from his face. The pain was just barely tolerable. After transporting to a planet from the USS Sprint, the crew of the Republic were sent down to get to a portal that could transport them back to their time, to stop a man named Brock from altering the timeline. The planet was current being besiged by battle between the Federation Marines form the Sprint and the Crickets. It was close, but the crew of the Republic made it to the portal and was sent back to their time. But not before an explosion near Seiben and Apollo lacerated their faces with sharp pieces of shrapnel.

 

Thinking back to the explosion, Seiben supposes, it was simply being at the wrong place, at the wrong time.. or maybe it's supernatural forces beyond his control out to get him. The pain was immense and comporable to when one steps on broken glass in their bare feet. Only the glass is in their face instead. He probably does require medical attention, and if he knew where a sickbay was in his new surroundings, maybe he and Apollo would pay them a visit. "Ow.. well, I think I have most of it out." he said to noone in particular. He and his fellow comrades consisting of Commander Kawalas, Apollo, Trepp, Kirok and himself were teleported to the massive Sky Harbour Aegis, a modified Jovian class station located somewhere near the Cardassian sector. The others, Blu, Will, Jax, and Kwai were nowhere to be seen. It's likely that they've been transported somewhere else.

 

He looked around at the large station, people and aliens were milling about the station doing through their daily routines, like they didn't have a care in the world. Though Seiben had heard of Sky Harbour Aegis, he never had the opportunity to visit it until now. He knew that Aegis was recently completed a few years ago, and is commanded by one Rear Admiral Fredric Meave. Or was it Fred Micheals?... Fred.. Something anyways.. oh well. Seiben thought. He also knew it had a small Norway-Class support ship called the Pandora's Box.

 

But everything else about the station was alien to him. The massive 750 metre, 42 deck, duel piloned station seemed imposing to him. Finding this Brock person in such a large place would be like finding a needle in a haystack. This Brock character could be anywhere. Seiben remembers back to many moons ago, when he first heard of Brock. It was his first day aboard, and he was orderd to pilot the capitan's yacht and take Rear Adm. Blu to a location, where she beamed off to meet with this Brock.

 

If he recalls correctly, all went well.. and the Republic never heard from him again. Anyways, Seiben, using his Lieutenant Commander security clearance, brings up a schematic of the Sky Harbour on the panel. The Sky Harbour, looked like two groups of three Galaxy-Class saucer sections one on top of the other with two pointy spires coming from the bottom of each group of saucers.. the saucers looked to be attached to each other by a large pole with three blue things on each end. Probably to keep the station stable, or maybe solar panels like the old 21st century International Space Station.

 

Seiben was unfamiliar with space stations that much, preferring the more traditional starship position. Still though, Seiben thought of what it might be like to serve aboard a space station. Not having to move from location to location. Might be nice. He thinks to himself. From the panel, he ascertains their location, and the locations of key parts to the ships like Engineering, Sickbay, and the station's Command Centre. He read through the files, familiarising himself with the layout and history of the station.

 

It was quite impressive indeed. The station had 350 personnel on board.. and a lot more civilians and visitors. Seiben still didn't know a "sky harbour" was, but he learned a great deal about the station. After finishing, Seiben rejoins the group, as they plan on what to do next. They only had a few days to capture Brock and prevent him from altering history. The most logical decision would of course be to acquire the help of the Aegis' crew and Commanders.

 

Though Seiben didn't know this Rear Admiral Meave personally, he was sure as a Federation Commanding Officer, he'd to anything to help the Republic crew with its mission. With not a moment to spare the intrepid and unannounced visitors from the Republic headed out into the station. Seiben wanted to catch Brock before his plans came into fluition, and his group will need all the help they can get. Seiben wanted more than anything to undo the mistakes he and his crews made during their last mission. With millions of lives and the Federation's future at stake, there were many people counting on their victory. Including the crew of the Sprint that died valliantly to get the crew here. Seiben and his comrades certainly didn't want to let them all down. All were determined not to let this golden once in a lifetime oppourtunity slip through their fingers.
