As the Raptor started to leave the Voyager docking bay, it became cloaked before it entered space. Cain steered the raptor to towards a different side of the Borg cube while the Voyager was occupied at another face. She turned on her heads-up-display; weapons were on standby. B'Elanna was sitting in co-pilot seat monitoring the ship systems, especially the cloaking device and variable-modulated, frequency shield device.
The idea was to attack the cube on the side while Voyager was engaged on another side, like hunters attacking a beast from all sides. When the raptor was in striking range, B'Elanna disengaged the cloaking device while Cain simultaneously armed the weapon systems. Looking at her display for visual cues, Cain locked on her target and squeezed the trigger, launching a guided bomb.
The bomb entered the Borg Cube like a suppository. It impacted within a few moments yielding explosions with fires and melted a significant part of the face of the cube. The raptor felt the incoming shockwave reverberate in space, rocking it like a small boat feeling the wake of a large boat.
The cube now focused its attention to the new alien ship; it started to attack by sending energy beams. Voyager was able to free itself and changed its course to assist the raptor. B'Elanna was busily managing the shield device, modulating the frequency while Cain was preparing to launch another bomb.
Just as Cain squeezed the trigger, the raptor rocked forward. The Borg cube had a tractor beam on the raptor. To Cain's dismay, the armed bomb did not launch – it was in a hung condition according to the displays and warning lights were flashing. She squeezed the trigger again, the bomb would not release; it was still in a hung state. Cain tried to disarm the fuse but the bomb remained armed as the Borg tractor beam was reeling them towards the cube.
Cain looked at B'Elanna, "Janeway, we have to abandon ship, we have an armed bomb that's hung."
"Standby."
Suddenly, two Borg drones materialized next to B'Elanna. B'Elanna took aim and fired with her Phaser but it proved ineffective. One of the closest Borg had his hand around B'Elanna's neck. Cain had her sights on the other Borg; she used her hand-gun and fired on it before it grabbed her.
Then Cain recognized the familiar sensation of disintegration. She, Torres, and the last Borg drone were beamed on the Voyager before the raptor crashed into the damaged cube's face. Within moments the Borg cube exploded spewing debris and produced a tsunami-strength shockwave shaking Voyager violently.
At the transporter room another battle continued. The Borg drone still had a vise-like grip on B'Elanna with his hand. Cain tried to pry him off but was knocked off and landed hard against the wall. The Borg drone then inserted a probe that punctured through B'Elanna's flight-suit. B'Elanna fought the cold burning sensation of the probe entering her neck; however her body succumbed and became limp.
She couldn't move her arms or legs nor speak. Then the Borg toppled over to the side. Cain had shot it from the back and she finished it off by squeezing one shot in the face. She went next to B'Elanna speaking to her. B'Elanna could understand her but could not reply; she shivered, feeling cold and numb. She felt vaguely like something else. Then a warm sensation caught her attention, it was a warm hand holding her cold hand. B'Elanna fought to say something but her tongue was thick and non-responsive. Her mind screamed, please don't let go.
"Come on B'Elanna, don't give up. B'Elanna, you're a fighter; fight this assimilation," said Cain as she and another crewmember lifted B'Elanna off the floor. "Remember who you are – you're B'Elanna Torres." Cain was aghast, B'Elanna was so pale and her skin was so cold.
B'Elanna finally remembered and nodded with her eyes while she was whisked off to sickbay. She focused on the warm sensation and held on tight.
