Red Alert, Red Alert. All hands to battle stations. We're engaging the Borg.

"Helm, evasive patterns, don't let them get to our bow, Tom." Said Janeway, "Mr. Kim, how long until the forward shields are up?"

"About 30 seconds Ma'am, the emitters are recharging now."

"Tuvok, set the shields on constantly rotating harmonics." Said the dark Native American man sitting at Janeway's side.

"Aye, sir, I have also set the phasers to randomly shift frequencies after each shot. Shields holding at 75 percent, forward shields regaining strength to 90 percent."

"Mr. Tuvok, Ensign Kim, are those shielded photons ready yet?" asked Captain Janeway.

The new photons contained shielding generators that matched their targets shields harmonics to pass through and cause the maximum amount of damage possible.

"Aye, Ma'am, however I believe that before Tuvok fires, Seven should come up to the bridge to monitor the photons adaptability."

"Agreed, Captain, these weapons are untested, I believe that we should have someone such as Seven of Nine monitor the shield's re-modulation program." Stated the ever logical Tuvok.

"Okay, you've sold me," with a quick tap of the communicator on her chest she called Seven to the Command deck on Voyager.

"I am on my way now Captain." Replied the former Borg drone.

"They are closing the distance Captain." Stated the blond helm's man.

"Current speed."

"We are at full impulse, until warp engines are ready."

"Bridge to Engineering."

"Torres here Captain."

"How long until the warp engines are online?"

Seven walks on to the Bridge and Janeway waves her over to the Science station behind the command chair.

"The core is coming online now."

"Tom, as soon as we have warp power go to warp 3 for a full min, then go to reverse course at warp 6, then do another round about at warp 5, then yet another one at maximum warp."

"Aye, ma'am, setting in warp program now." Said the slightly confused Paris.

"Are we ready to fire the shielded photons?"

"Aye Ma'am."

"Fire a full volley."

"Firing. Ten seconds till impact." Came from the tactics station.

"The torpedoes re-modulation program is functioning properly Captain." Stated Seven.

"Tuvok, adjust the phasers to re-modulate with the photons and fire simultaneously with the impact."

"Aye, Captain doing so now."

"Torres here, warp power in 10 seconds."

"Direct hit with the photons, phasers have been fired, the cube is losing power, but not speed."

"We have warp power, the warp program is initiating now."

"Captain I believe the Borg are being "confused" by the warp program." Came from the Ops station

"They'll adapt quickly enough. Seven can you access Astrometrics from here?"

"Yes, Captain."

"Do it, scan for any nearby nebulas. I want something for cover."

At the same moment the ship began to rock back and forth as explosions bang over the shields and then the hull.

"Captain the Borg are shooting out photons in our general direction. They are quickly adapting to our shields. I can't compensate."

"Engineering to Bridge, Captain there are multiple breeches in the core room. I have had to evacuate."

"Understood. Make your way to the Bridge Lieutenant, you can establish control here."

"Aye, Captain."

In Janeway's head she was thinking it couldn't get much worse.

"Captain they have just fired another volley. Impact in 5 seconds."

Massive explosions all over the ship as not a single one had trouble getting through the ships shielding. Throwing Torres out of the turbo lift just as she was about to walk out.

COMPUTER: "Warning, Warning. Warp Core breech in 40 seconds."

"Computer, what is the problem with the core." Came from slightly annoyed engineer. She didn't much like controlling her engines from the Bridge.

"The Main Cooling System has failed. Secondary Cooling has lost pressure."

"Computer, cross the Main and Secondary cooling lines. Increase Secondary cooling pumps to 175. And open all heat release vents."

"Unable to Comply, the cooling bypass mechanisms have been fused."

"Never thought it could be that easy when damage is caused by the Borg." Stated the less hopeful Torres, "Shut down the Warp Core, authorization Torres Alpha Miral 35."

"Unable to Comply, warp shut down procedures cannot be completed without at least Secondary cooling."

"Bypass, Chief Engineers authority."

"Unable to Comply, Warp core is not responding to command. Unable to lock injection systems."

"Eject the core computer. Authorization Janeway Level 10 red Pi Beta 4."

"Unable to comply, physical ejection systems fused. Transporter ejection is offline. Core breech in 5 seconds."

"Computer end program."

The simulation of Voyager disappeared leaving the sweaty, smelly, and bruised Bridge crew in a gun metal grey room.

"Senior Staff meeting in 1 hour. I want all of you to go over you acquired data and start to think of improvements to anything." Said the Limping form of Janeway, "I'm going to see the doctor about this newly obtained bump on my hip."

They all exited the room to comply with their Captain's orders.
