Disclaimer: He's... Back! It's me again. Here with another installment of Times to be... I know the chapters have been a little short as of late, but I've kind of been rushing through them. When spell checking, I noticed a lot of errors, so, to ensure that no more spelling errors pop up like they did when I started writing this; I'm requesting that someone would help me by taking the time to beta read. Just tell me in a review, or look for my e-mail if you want the job. Also, on a liter note, I will be adding a new character to the story, hope you enjoy! Now, to get this part over with... I do not own Digimon, or Star Trek, just the stuff in this fic, so, Don't Sue Me! Now, on with the show...
U.S.S. Stargazer, Exit Space View, 1848 hrs. (6:48 p.m.)
"Captain's log, Stardate: unknown. Both, the Stargazer, and Prometheous, are on an intersept course for the Grigari vessel, that has set a course for Earth. When I talked to Gene, he nor his crew, had any idea what the Grigari were.
I'm surprised that on one read my report to Star Fleet..."
Flash Back
((Exit Space))
The Prometheous, and Stargazer, are both docked at Starbase 01, preparing for the test flight.
((Stargazer, Main Bridge))
Several officers are talking, either to, each other, dry-dock control, or the computer, until captain Beck, and his digimon partner step off the turbolift. Until...
"Captain on the bridge!" Said B4, in his own digitized voice, as all the other bridge officers dropped what they were doing, and stood up.
"At ease." Said Beck
"Status." Said Beck, aimed at his new first officer, as everyone sat back down.
"The Prometheous is ready to depart, and so are we. Were only waiting on your order, sir." Said commander Dirmax.
"Are saying that I'm slow on decisions, commander?" Asked the captain, causing the grin to disappear from the Betazoids face, as everyone turned to look at them.
"No, sir! Ah- I meant no disre-"
"That's alright commander. It was only a joke. Now, at ease, before you strain something, It's not crunch time yet." Said Beck, jokingly.
"Yes sir, sorry sir." Said the nervous commander.
"Now, hail the Prometheous, and tell them that we're ready to get under way." Ordered Beck.
End Flash Back
Aeh, aeh, aeh, aeh. Aeh, aeh, aeh, aeh.
"Captain, we are within visual range of the Grigari vessel." Reported Roganko.
"On screen." Came Beck.
Screen Blinks on to show the round, dark-gold, saucer-like hull of the ship.
"We will intersept the Grigari within ten minutes, at current speed." Said Monodramon.
"Hail the Prometheous, tell them to accelerate to maximum warp, and match speed." Said Beck.
"Aye, sir." Came B4 in his usual digitized voice.
"Lutennent, how many trancphasic torpedoes do we have left?" Asked the captain.
"Ahh, thirty-eight, sir. And the armor is only at 16." Replied the lieutenant.
"That's good enough deploy armor, load trancphasic torpedoes."
Main Bridge, U.S.S. Prometheous, 1848 hrs. (6:48 p.m.)
"Captain's log, stardate: unknown. We're on an intersept course to the vessel that Dennis, says is a Grigari ship. Apparently, the Grigari are a species from the Delta Quadrant that Stargazer encountered when they were temporarily trapped more than fifty-thousand light years, across the Galaxy."
"Hey, captain. The Stargazer's hailing us ...There saying to speed up" Shouted Terriermon.
"Captain, the Stargazer has sped up to warp 9... 9.26... 9.49... 9.71." Said the ensign at ops.
"Guilmon, match speed." Came Fink.
As the ship catches up, the Stargazer, deployed its armor.
"Sir, the Stargazer, just has just gone to emergency battle mode." Came Fullidger
"Match action. Helm, ETA on intersept." Requested the captain.
"Intercept in forty-seconds," Said Nasim, at the tactical station.
"All hands, prepare for engagement." Said the captain.
Hazard Operations, U.S.S. Prometheous, 1848 hrs. (6:48 p.m.)
"Okay team, we've gotta', ship out there, that can really pack 'em. So, incase we lose the shields, um, assinin' yous to the most sensitive parts of the ship first. Beta team, you get engineering. Kappa team, you're in sickbay. Delta team, yous get da hanger deck, Etta team get's armory, and hazard ops. While me, and alpha team, get's deck 1. Kapeesh?" Said lieutenant Impmon, the leader of the hazard team on board the Prometheous.
All the crew suddenly said "Aye, sir" as they all left for there assigned posts. Then, just as Impmon was just about to report in to the captain, ensign Krench, the leader of beta team, and Impmon's second in command, came up and asked the dumbest question Impmon had ever herd...
"Sir, is it true?" Asked the ensign.
"Huh? Is what true?" Asked Impmon.
"The fact that the Grigari are really the reanimated corpses of other species?" Replied the nerves officer.
"I dunno. Ask the computer, it'll know." Said the annoyed chief.
So, with that said, the young ensign Krench rushed to catch up to his team, as they were headed to the turbolift for engineering.
'I really hop he's wrong on that, or else, it's gonna be one ruff day... Again.' Thought Impmon, as he continued to contact the bridge.
Main Bridge, Grigari Vessel, 1849 hrs. (6:49 p.m.)
Tri-commander Pferg sat on the small, quarter dome of his ships bridge, thinking about how much luck he was having on the day, of the holy re-berth. The day, in which he would have his revenge. Revenge on the pale, oddly-shaped vessel, of the terrines. the vessel that was brought to his homeworld, to destroy it, as the holy text said it would.
Flash Back
It was the blessed holiday, the day in which the vessel of fate was to appear. Although, the exact date had been lost to history, every year, the people of the Grigari celebrated the day, as if it were to be there last. Then...
End Flash Back
"Sir, we are within weapons range of the terrine vessels." Came weapons master Jro'gel.
"Emergency mode, all hands!" Shouted the tri-commander.
'This is not the time to remember...' Thought tri-comm. Pferg.
"Today is the day... The day, of vengeance!" Said Pferg, as the few people on his small bridge cheered.
'The day we avenge you... My daughter...'
Main Bridge, U.S.S. Stargazer, 1850 hrs. (6:50 p.m.)
"Captain, we have dropped out of warp, and are within weapons rang of the Grigari vessel." Reported B4, from the conn.
"Prometheous is combat ready." Reported lieutenant Roganko.
Flash Back
((Exit Space))
The Stargazer has just been ejected from the golden illumination of the slip-stream vortex, and is more or less, intact...
"Captain, we have exited slip-stream!" Shouted B4 as all the officers climbed back into there seats.
"Ops, report!" Shouted Beck.
'Silence'
"Ops, I said report!" Said Beck, but still got no answer.
"Sir, lieutenant chouka is dead." Said B4, as he checked for the officer's pulse.
End Flash Back
"Captain, the Grigari vessel is hailing us." Came Roganko's voice.
"On screen." Said the captain.
The screen bleeps on to show the cream-colored face of the Grigari captain. Just as Beck's eye's practically jumped out of his head as he saw who it was...
"Ahh, so we meet again captain..." Said Pferg, as he smiled widely on his side of the screen.
"Tri-commander Pferg." Started Beck.
"So, you remember captain ...And to think that I'd thought you had forgtten all about us." Stated the tri-comm.
"Who could forget what you tried to do to. Kidnapped my crew, threatened this ship, and..." Said the captain, trailing off.
"That was your fault! If you had followed your destiny, then they all wouldn't have died!" Shouted Pferg.
"I swear, by the rubble of the heavens, you shall pay for what have done! I shall complete what those honor less Jem'hadar couldn't!" The tri-commander said as he singed off.
"All stations, this is the captain, prepare for engagement!"
Main Bridge, U.S.S. Prometheous, 1852 hrs. (6:52 p.m.)
The screen blinked off, to show the Grigari vessel begin to take evasive maneuvers, as it opened its attack.
"Captain, the vessel is targeting the Stargazer!" Shouted Renamon, as she started to take evasive action.
"Target there engines." Said the captain in his cool, calm voice."
"Aye sir, all weapons." Said the lieutenant as she opened fire.
The bridge shudders, as the ship is hit by one of the weapons.
"Captain, armor integrity down to 10.3!" Shouted Renamon.
"What? In just one hit? It's not going to be a long battle..." Said the captain.
Main Bridge, U.S.S. Stargazer 1854 hrs. (6:54 p.m.)
"Captain, armor integrity down to 11.9." Shouted Roganko.
'The bridge rumbles violently.'
"9, captain, firing forward trans, torpedoes." Said the lieutenant.
"Evasive maneuvers!" Shouted Beck.
"Sir, the Grigari vessel has sustained damage to their port-side shield." Came B4.
"Target, that area, and fire!" Shouted the captain.
The bridge rumbles, again...
"Captain, the Prometheous, is losing their armor integrity." Said Monodramon, form his place at ops.
"Armor integrity is down to 4.1..."
The bridge rumbles again.
"1.5 captain, One more hit, and it's gone."
knock on wood, the bridge shook violently again...
"It's gone sir. Shields are down too." Said the lieutenant.
"Sir, the ship is coming in for another pass." Shouted B4.
Main Bridge, Grigari vessel, 1859 hrs. (6:59 p.m.)
"Sir, both of the attacking vessels have lost all weapons, and shielding." Came the weapons master.
"Excellent, prepare for another pass, we shall finally destroy them!" Shouted the commander.
As the ship came about, with her weapons ready, she speeds up then suddenly shudders.
"What's happening?" Shouted Pferg, as his ship began to shake uncontrollably.
"We're being fired upon by another vessel!" Shouted the weapons master.
"By who?" Said the commander, just as the screen came on to show the face of a young, human girl.
"No..." Said Pferg, as hi ship began to spiral, and then, the darkness came.
Main Bridge, U.S.S. Prometheous, 1900 hrs. (7:00 p.m.)
"Captain, the- the ship!" Stammered the second officer, in disbelief.
The familiarly white ship, which just appeared out of nowhere, started to fire on the Grigari ship, effectively, destroying it.
"Sir, the Grigari vessel, has been destroyed." Stated Renamon, almost in disbelief.
"Ah, hey capt., we're being hail, by that... other ship." Said Terriermon, as stared at the viewer.
"On screen." Replied the captain.
The screen blinked on to show the somewhat, familiar face of a human female, but not just a human, it was...
"Rika?" Whispered the captain, as he stood up.
"That's right, goggle head two. Now, we have alought to talk about..." Stated this starfleet version, of the tamers of this world.
