"... Am I the only human without some form of entity inside me? No offense, but I figure we should get potentially shocking reveals out of the way."

"Entity? You hurt her feelings. Take that back." Vee says with mostly a straight face.

Kyle rolls his eyes.
"I'm sorry."

Vee giggles, covering her mouth.

She may be a remorseless killer, but that didn't mean she had lost sense of humor.

Class 1: Silent Takedown
-Incapacitating Strike  (Activated ability: Knocks somebody clean out on succes)

Bit uninspired here. Feel free to suggest

Is that everyone or did I fail at counting again.

The Olympia

Impact ETA: 15 minutes

No time's wasted after the briefing. The temporal engines are started, and a course is set towards the Olympia. It's not long before you're able to spot the ailing wreck of the Andromeda, careening steerless through time, disintegrating further with every passing moment. Your ship(should really give it a name) approaches, despite the tremendous turbulence from the ensuing Timeflux. It's a good thing that this ship comes with an autopilot, as none of you would've been capable to operate the controls in such conditions. The ship groans, and creaks, and then finally surpasses the Andromeda.

[??] With a sudden jolt, the ship leaves the vortex and phases into the Olympia's bridge, displacing a significant amount of matter in the process. Alerts go off outside, and you hear the sound of panicking humans as they struggle to get away. A careful observation confirms this. The bridge looks like a battlefield. Debris lies everywhere, mostly hidden by the white clouds emitted by the fire suppression system. It appears however that most instruments are intact, or completely destroyed, as no further alarms are sounded.

Kyle walks out.
"Sorry! Our fault! Guys come here quick."

[MonkeyHead]

KBM strode purposefully out onto the bridge, rifle shouldered.

Someone Investigate the instrumentation. I shall ensure no interference arrives through the access points if someone else takes control of the humans in here...

[scapheap]

Clair remain silent, Checking how many possible foes there may be with her sniper rifle.

[lawastooshort]

Baako darts out, vicious harpoon aiming as he rolls into cover. He pops his head round, ready to fire at any immediate threat in non explosive mode, and imitates the call of the Space Elk to help him get a feel for this new spacetime.

[mastahcheese]

((Surprise attack  and Mineralogy))

Walk forward and look for any air ducts/ maintenance passages that could be used for silent passage through the ship.

[Flying Dice]

Walk calmly from the time machine, speaking slowly and clearly, attempting to be diplomatically convincing, "Ach, in spite o' the appearance of my co-workers here, we come in peace. In fact, we're here to help you successfully complete your mission. You have my word as a man o' honor."


((E: I think there's been a bit of confusion, for some reason. The ship we are on is one unrelated to the time-travel organization, and is supposed to launch a terrorist attack/alpha strike on the planet below. We are attempting to make sure that that happens, one way or another, because a time-travel-bureau ship (can we just call them the TSAB? Please? :3) is going to crash into it before it can fire. If the ship we're on doesn't get the attack off, the timeline is borked and we fail.))

[Dwarmin]

"Hey, ooh, shiny...buttons..." V says, looking at the screens.

Action: Investigate the instruments with my low intelligence score. Try to determine the progress of the attack sequence.

The Olympia

Impact ETA: 10 minutes


Kyle carefully leaves the timemachine ...[/], and successfully manages to avoid antagonizing the Olympia's crew. He counts 7 crewmembers on deck, 2 of which are tending to a third one. It appears he's been hit by a piece of debris when your ship crashed into theirs. From what you can see, the wound isn't that bad, and he should be fine.

Clair is more carefull however, and remains silent. Using the smoke and the debris as camouflage, she manages to observe the crewmembers without problems. All seven crewmembers appear to be armed with small weaponry, though only 2 of them have grabbed their guns, and would be in a position to return fire. They appear to be quite shocked, which is an understandable reaction. The bridge used to be the most secure location in the ship, and while most cover has been destroyed , it still offers an easily defensible location.

The droid makes it way through the smoke and debris, easily avoiding the loose power cables and broken monitors. He finds that the bridge has but 2 entrances, one on each end. Both are secured with reinforced blast doors, which are closed, but appear to be neither bolted nor locked. Buttons to do so are clearly visible next to them.
Cromwell makes a cursory search for additionall entrances as well, but it appears the bridge has neither airducts nor maintenance passages.

Baako darts out of the timemachine, ... trips over a loose power wire, and executes a perfect roll through a heap of broken glass. A small trickle of blood drips down his hands, as he brings them to his mouth. His eerily good imitation of a dying Space Elk resounds through the ship, causing fear and confusion in all who hear it.

... V manages to stumble onto something that might be the Missile launch computer. It's got a large red button, and display depicting a virtual representation of the planet below, with targeting markers over most major cities. The entire thing is wired into the surrounding computers and Currently, it appears to be asking authentication to confirm the target choice.

... One of the men looks up after having heard the Knight's speach. "So, that means the attack is suspended then? After all, why else would they send you after us. Didn't even know we had crafts that could accomplish this. Hell, with a dozen of these we could easily win the war, without having to resort to these atrocities.

"Comrade Vee, ascertain ifwe can accomplish this ships primary goal from here as soon as possible using the ships systems. Crewmembers of currently occupired vessel - as the chivalrous one asserts we are here to assist in your goal and to prevent a classified incident. Lay down your weapons as we present no threat."

Lock both access doors, confiscate and analyse crew weapons if they are willing to offer them.

[Flying Dice]

Edward grimaces, "Apologies for th' confusion, friend. We are not associated with your organization, and our technology is much more limited than it may appear. In this matter, however, our goals run parallel. This attack is distasteful in the extreme, but it is ultimately necessary. Our agenda here is to ensure that your attack is carried out, and I strongly urge that you do so within the next few minutes and move your ship, or we will all die horrible deaths."

Diplomacy!
