Captain's Log, Date Classified; the spaceship, Hiroki, is on its maiden voyage, but it is unfortunate that the Hiroki's first mission is to answer a distress call from its sister ship, the Oikawa. Even more unfortunate, our enemies have been impeding our rescue attempt. We managed to incapacitate any resistance the enemy brought us.
Captain Daisuke gazed at his Digivice, which was lying on his desk for the moment, and pondered, over his commission. It was rather sudden, moreover brief. The assigned captain was working at one of the outer colonies and time was limited. So when he was assigned captain Daisuke was promised it would only be temporary and that when he came back from his mission that he would be first officer of the Hiroki instead.
His attire: consisting of a dark long-sleeved undershirt and blue jumpsuit with colored piping around the shoulders. His Digivice operated as his communicator, and could be found in his pocket. Most of the crew wore his kind of attire, but with small discrepancies to indicate rank. Hikari, was the only one to refuse wearing the outfit, she wore a lab coat instead since she felt that it better suited her field, Medicine. She used that as an argument, which she won, against Daisuke.
Daisuke laughed, "So far, I guess I make an okay captain," and looking at his Digivice again, "then again maybe it's just luck…"
Then Takeru called him through from his Digivice, "Captain, we're arriving in the sector where the Distress Call initiated,"
Daisuke grabbed his Digivice and walked out of his ready room, and right onto the bridge.
The bridge of the Hiroki, revealed the commanding officers of the station.
Daisuke- acting Captain
Takeru-First Officer
Hikari- Chief Medical Officer
Miyako- Science Officer
Iori- Chief Engineer
Ken- Tactical/Security Officer
The entire bridge was somewhat dark: with some areas glowing blue and the entire with conventional lighting. Helm controls and monitors where found throughout the ship.
The captain sat in the middle of the entire bridge, with helm in front, tactical behind, and other stations surrounding the captain.
Everyone was in distress, in much disarray in fact, much chatter among the bridge crew, but Daisuke fiercely looked at the monitor, hoping what he was about to see would defy what the sensor readings indicate.
"Captain, all I'm reading from the sensors is debris, I believe we should proceed with caution," decrees a distraught Miyako.
"Maintain course, helm," Daisuke orders an unnamed ensign on the helm controls in front of him, then he turns to Ken behind him and hollers, "Tactical Protocols, Lieutenant Commander."
"Aye sir," Ken adhered to Daisuke and the blue lights turned red, and the entire ship heard a droning siren, "Weapons online, shields up,"
Takeru muttered, "How many on it? 1,000? 2,000? There're Digimon on it too."
Daisuke overheard, but ignored it as he hailed the Chief Medical Officer, who was preparing med kits, sanitizing the medical instruments, starting up the bio beds, "Commander! Are your medics ready? We will be expecting Terran as well as Digimon casualties,"
Hikari was busy preparing a hypospray as she responded, "Yeah,"
Then Daisuke ordered the computer to patch him through to engineering, "Iori, we will be dropping out of FTL speed, how's the fusion generators holding up?"
Iori, in Engineering, came forth from a screen of pale smoke, certain pipes were failing and monitors as well as controls were fused bringing a fireworks display in addition to the smoke, he managed to respond, "Let's just say I wouldn't recommend going to FTL speed for awhile, repairs would take 3 hours thanks from our last encounter with-"
"Acknowledged," Daisuke cut off communications as his Tactical Officer received a transmission from his superiors.
"Captain," Ken informed the captain as he read the transmission, "D-Fleet has just informed us that 3 other spaceships are under attack in this sector we are advised to assist them in any way possible,"
Daisuke sighed, "Acknowledged,"
"Captain, we just passed one of those spaceships under attack," Ken urgently informed Daisuke.
"We'll assist them later," Daisuke calmly informed Ken.
"Captain, I know that we are close with the Oikawa's crew, but-"
Ken was then interjected by Daisuke, "I said we'll help them later, Ken!"
Ken sighed and silently said, "Yes sir,"
"Time to destination, Miyako," Daisuke asked, still staring at the big screen in front of him.
Miyako responded, but while scrutinizing sensor readings, "Time to spaceship Oikawa,20 seconds,"
Daisuke pressed a button, lying with other series of buttons next to his chair, with a grandiose sounding siren following, "This is the Captain speaking", and his voice could be heard throughout the entire ship, "We have just informed by D-Fleet Command, that the Oikawa was attacked by the enemy in this sector, we have no news of the result of that engagement, but casualties are expected to mount every second, and-"
Miyako yelled, "2 seconds!"
Daisuke made it brief, "All hands prepare for battle!"
And the Hiroki,immediately dropped out of Faster-Than-Light speed, and halted in front of ruins of a space battle.
Miyako informed the Captain, "I'm reading only debris, Daisuke."
Daisuke stood up, along with Takeru who told helm, "On Screen,"
Helm pressed a button, and then the silver wall disappeared, as a floating monitor appeared, showing what lurks outside the Hiroki. And much to the dismay of everyone on the bridge, there was nothing to be found.
Daisuke turned to Miyako, "Scans?"
Miyako pressed some buttons on a monitor in front of her, looked at the screen and then turned stolidly to Daisuke, and she shook her head.
Daisuke refused to admit the fate of the crew of Oikawa, "they may have launched escape pods, scan the area with sensors."
Miyako started her sweep of the section of space, informing the captain, "I'm reading one escape pod, with only one life sign, and it's faint."
"Beam the person to the Medical Bay, have Hikari look at him," Daisuke ordered, and then contacted Hikari, "Hikari, we're beaming someone to your bay,"
Hikari prepared standard medical procedures, "Acknowledged,"
The entire bridge was grieved for the apparent loss of their comrades, Takeru especially was affected, more so than any other member on the bridge.
Daisuke ordered Miyako, "Keep scanning for survivors, and for any unwelcomed visitors in our space."
Miyako simply said, "Yes sir."
And Daisuke solemnly turned to Ken, "Maintain Tactical Protocols,"
Ken nodded, and then the helmsman in front of Daisuke suddenly stood up for an unknown reason, and his eyes became pure black as he turned menacingly to Daisuke and smiled creepily.
Daisuke was all too familiar with this phenomenon and stared coldly into his ensign's equally evil eyes. The possessed ensign hissed, "We got your flagship, and now we will destroy the Digital World as well."
"The Coalition will stop you, you can't destroy us all!" Daisuke snarled.
"You won't reach Earth, you will perish."
And then Takeru responded by reaching for his weapon, aiming and shooting the possessed ensign. From his weapon came a concentrated beam that hit the ensign, who collapsed to the floor and died.
Daisuke remained silent and informed Takeru, "I'll be in my ready room, and you have the bridge Takeru."
Takeru nodded, and ordered the gaping crewman to pick up the dead body and take it to Medical Bay for autopsy.
Daisuke retreated to the ready room, a personal chamber of his, where he brainstorms strategies and tactics and relaxes while on the same deck as the bridge. He opened the door from the bridge, and entered quickly into the ready room, taking a computer console on the desk, swiveling it towards him, pressing a few buttons and then found himself in contact with D-Fleet Command.
And then an image of a Digimon appeared on the screen, wearing the same attire as Daisuke but of obvious higher rank. It was Leomon, a great Lion-like digimon that can walk on two feet.
Leomon saw Daisuke's sadness and asked, "I trust that the news I'm about to hear won't be good,"
Daisuke softly said, "No I'm afraid not,"
"Carry on though,"
"Yes Admiral, we believe that the Oikawa was commandeered, sir."
"Any survivors?"
Daisuke sighed, "Maybe one,"
"Maybe?"
In the Medical Bay…
"Get me 10 ccs of tetracordrozine!" Hikari yelled, as she attempted to resuscitate a dying survivor of the Oikawa.
"Yes doctor!" A Lopmon replies while injecting the serum Hikari called for into Willis
"We're losing him!" Hikari yells as she plants computer chip-like mechanisms called cortical stimulators, on his head. Lopmon yells, "Clear," and Willis's body jump starts, and the sounds of a heart pumping calm everyone in the room.
Hikari sighed with relief, and as she was about to leave to get her medical D-Corder, Willis grabbed her arm, rather roughly as he tried to choke out, "Where am I?" Hikari to calm the patient down, but Willis held on to Hikari's arms and yelled, "Why am I here? How did I get here?"
Lopmon manages to sedate Willis, and he loses his grasp on Hikari as he falls into an abrupt sleep.
On the Bridge…
Takeru was at Helm controls, steering the Hiroki. When he enters his coordinates to save other spaceships under attack, Daisuke enters the bridge. Daisuke spots Takeru about to adjust the speed of their heading, and stops him, "Takeru, I'm afraid we're not going anywhere for any time soon."
"Captain?" Takeru asks confused, "We have 3 other spaceships that need our assistance."
"Just finished talking with D-Fleet, we have our orders to investigate the Oikawa,"
"But sir, we don't even know where it is or if it is even destroyed; we have to help the others so they don't end up like that,"
"We have our orders, Takeru, besides Iori says it'll be 3 hours for repairs before we're even ready for FTL speed again,"
Takeru remained silent, and stared out to the monitor to find nothing, and almost hopes that somehow the Oikawa got away, that his own brother got away.
