Truth
Disclaimer: B5 belongs to JMS and SciFi; Andromeda belong to Tribune Entertainment. I am only borrowing them and I promise to return them in more or less the same condition as I found them. I will make no money off this.
Author's note: This takes place in the season 3 that doesn't exist yet, I am assuming the Dylan gets Beka and Tyr back.

"This is Captain Dylan Hunt of the Andromeda Ascendant to all attacking Earth Force ships, Babylon 5 is under my protection and you will stand down or be destroyed."
Then the transmition cut off and the four earth force destroyers directed their attention to the Andromeda, apperantly forgetting Babylon 5 and the Churchill for the moment, and focused all their attention on the new ship. Well, Hiroshi thought, they will die, but at least they will distract them long enough for the Minbari to arrive, hopefully.
Starfuries and the unknown fighter were in a deadly dance, almost serene if it wasn't for the fact that every time their was an explosion that meant someone was dead. The new fighters were doing better than Hiroshi thought they would, for each of the new fighters destroyed or disabled, at least four starfuries were destroyed or disabled, but, what she figured was a carrier, thus not having a lot of weapons, was just sitting there.
When the destroyers opened fire on the carrier, Hiroshi was suprised to see that it wasn't destroyed, then it returned fire, with what she hoped was a full missle payload, because it destroyed one of the Hyperion Destroyers and crippled the Roanoke. It was then that four jump points opened, and four ships came out.
"Damn it, they had reinforcements waiting in hyperspace" Hiroshi said.
"No sir, those ships, their Minbari!" her XO said, he sounded almost happy. "Sir, the ship, the White Star, I think, its hailing all ships"
"This is Ambassador Delenn of the Minbari. Babylon 5 is under our protection. Withdraw, .. or be destroyed."
"Negative. We have authority here. Do not force us to engage your ship."
"Why not? Only one human captain has ever survived battle with a Minbari fleet. He is behind me. You are in front of me. If you value your lives, be somewhere else."
After that the Clarks forces turned around and left through the jump gate. "Thank God, we made it," sighed Hiroshi. But now she was seeing something even worse, there was what appeared to be a stand off between this Dylan Hunt of the Andromeda Ascendent and the Minbari. "Shit, why can't any thing ever be simple?"

Sheridan was watching the battle from C&C, at first it appeared that they were going to lose, then this new ship appeared out of no where, and managed to destroy one destroyer and cripple another, and it appeared to unharmed. But it didn't get involved in the battle till it was attacked, meaning it probably didn't want to get involved in the battle, but Earth forced them in when they attacked it. Now it was in a stand off with Delenn and the Minbari. This could turn out badly.
"Captain, that Andromeda Ascendent is hailing" one of the officers in C&C said.
"Open frequency," Sheridan told him.
"I am Captain Dylan Hunt of the Andromeda Ascendent to Minbari ships, stand down, I have my weapons locked on you and I will destroy you if I have to."
"This is Ambassador Delenn, you destroy us, that is, as Humans say, laughable, you stand down, Captain Dylan Hunt."
"Shit, this is bad," Sheridan said. Then he said into the comm, "Captain Hunt, Delenn, this is Captain Sheridan of Babylon 5, stand down, I repeat stand down, we are all on the same side."
"Ok, Captain Sheridan, I am standing down."
"Alright John, if you say so."
"Good," John said into the comm. "Now get me the Roanoke"
"This is Captain John Sheridan to EAS Roanoke, you are crippled and your back up has fled, surrender."
"Captain Sheridan, this is the Roanoke, we" there was a pause " surrender."
