Author's notes: Yes, you the readers were correct, I was wrong. The correct symbol for Psi-corp is the Greek letter Psi, and not Omega.

As for the term Eleventy. The Minbari use a base eleven number system, So the term Eleventyfive refers to sixteen, this is because the Shai Alyt wasn't counting the EA ships as unknown, and two of the destroyers were not there, They were scouting for jump points.

Chapter 11

Beta Durani space dock, General Hague's office: Major Allen stood in front of the General's desk,

"Sir, you don't really believe these people do you?"

"Why not major?"

"Ah c'mon sir, another universe, advanced tech, and they want to help us. It's like a freakin dream come true."

The General smiled at him, "Where would mankind be without dreamers Major?"

The major gave up trying to talk to the General about this subject, for now. The general was looking at the tech designs that Commander Langford had supplied them, and then he pressed a button on his desk.

"This is General Hague, I want a high speed courier in my office in 10 minutes. And I need a secure gold channel signal to General Leftcourt at Earth-dome."

"Aye sir" came the reply.

The Major looked at him, "You know Earth-dome may override you on this one."

"Yeah they might, but I'm sure that when they see these tech designs, they won't."

After a few minutes, the General's monitor snapped on, and he was looking at General Leftcourt.

"So Hague, how are things out your way, I hope the senators weren't to much trouble."

General Hague just looked at him, and General Leftcourt knew that something serious was happening.

"General, I'm sending you and the joint chiefs a special report by high speed courier. It should arrive in just over 24 hours. This data is to sensitive to transmit."

General Leftcourt knew that Hague wouldn't send something this way unless it was extremely important.

"Roger that, we look forward to the data. Can you say anything about it?"

"All I can say General is that it will knock your socks off."

"Alright general, we will await the data's arrival and get back to you."

The monitor clicked off, and there was a knock on the general's door.

"Come"

An Earthforce Lt entered the office. "You called for a courier general?"

The general handed a sealed box to the Lt. "Lt, I need these hand delivered to General Leftcourt at the Joint Chiefs. You are to give them only to the general personally, not an aide or secretary. Am I understood?"

The Lt snapped to attention, "Yes sir, perfectly."

"Very good, dismissed."

The Lt saluted, did an about face and left the general's office. The courier ship was soon launched and enroute to Earth.

Beta Durani system, sector 15, 24 hours later: Sam Laqua was just watching his sensors; the jump point to Sol should be very near here. He and the Bull Run had found three of the four jump points that were listed on their maps of the Sirius system, and so far the jump points had been were they were supposed to be. He just had one more to locate. Then he noticed something weird on his sensors.

"Bull Run, this is PC one, I'm getting some unusual reading on my long range scans."

"PC one this is Bull Run, can you patch in your scans to us?"

"Roger that, wait one."

Sam flipped a few switches, and his scan results were sent to the Bull Run. The scanner tech and the comm. tech looked at the readings. The scan tech called the Captain over.

"Sir, you might want to see this."

Captain Grove came over, "What's up?"

"Sir, these readings are similar to the Minbari readings we got before."

"So they are."

The captain picked up a comm. set, "PC one, do not investigate, we will send fighters to check it out."

"Roger Bull run continuing sweep."

Captain Grove contacted his CAG, "Janet, we've got a bogey out there, and it may be Minbari. It seems to be sitting quietly, which makes me think it's a scout ship, or an espionage ship."

"Do they know we spotted them?"

"I don't think so, but I want a flight of rapiers launched, with leeches."

"Yes sir, they'll be in the air in 5 minutes."

"Good."

The captain pressed another button, and his security chief answered. "Captain, we're going to be having guests soon, and I don't think they'll want to be here. I'll want a fully armed detail in the bay in about 10 minutes ready for launch and space action. And Captain, I want prisoners."

"Yes sir, we'll be ready."

Captain Grove just stood there for a moment, and then looked at the comm. tech.

"Send to Admiral Douglas, highest priority and encoding. Have detected an unknown bogey. Power signature and ECM data are consistent with Minbari ships. I am attempting to capture the vessel. Will advise when completed."

"Yes sir."

.
Major Halko was on the flight deck with two of her pilots. "We just picked up the bogey a few minutes ago, the bogeys position is in the Nav comps on your ships. The captain wants you to identify the ship, so you'll need to be in full stealth mode. Don't take any chances, if they try to lock on, then leech em. And let the marines handle them."

Both pilots saluted, and headed for their ships. Less that a minute later, they were headed toward the bogey's last known position. As they were approaching the ship, Lt Cho picked up increases in tachyon emissions from the ship.

"Base, this is Dragonfly, I think they spotted us. They're attempting a lock; we're beginning attack run now. Got tone, Fox 2, Fox 3."

Both fighters had missile lock on the ship, and fired two leech missiles each

.
Anla Shok scout ship Dark Night: The rangers had spent more than a week in normal drive, to arrive at the Earther system, but they felt it was worth it. They were gathering a vast amount of data on the defenses of this system, the types of ships here, and the static defenses that they had encountered. Their ship had come close to detection the day before, except that the group of ships they were watching had suddenly left the area, and headed further into the system. Now they were experiencing an unusual glitch in their scanners. A smaller ship, most likely a fighter ship of some sort had passed on the outer edges of their scanners, and a few minutes later, they were getting areas of negative scan return. Then they saw them. The ranger at scanners turned to his leader.

"Sir we have two small unknown vessels approaching us at high speed."

The leader looked at him, "Scan them."

"We can't get a positive reading, they seem to be coming straight at us."

"Destroy them, then."

"They appear to be locking on weapons."

His leader looked at him, "That's impossible. Is the Stealth field active?"

"Yes sir, but I'm showing a positive lock."

The leader of the vessel looked at the comm. position.

"Send all data that we have gathered, and this new information."

"Yes sir."

As the ranger was sending the data, the Leader looked at the display, four missiles were inbound.

"Helm get us out of here."

But before he could react, the missiles impacted, and systems all over the ship began to fluctuate and shut down.

.
The next thing that the crew of the scout ship knew, they were floating inside of their ship. Their AG system was down, and the only illumination they had was from emergency lights. Their leader tried to contact engineering, but the communication system was down.

He turned to his XO, "Begin a ship wide search for wounded, and try to get some of our systems back up."

"Yes sir."

"I'm headed to engineering, we may need to manually destroy the ship."

All of the rangers looked at him and nodded. After a few minutes, the leader had reached engineering, but the doors to it were sealed. He looked through the clear portion of the door and saw that the crew inside was just floating. He made his way over to the manual controls, and when he tried to access them he heard someone behind him, "STOP."

He turned and saw a young ranger. "Sir, the compartment was flooded with radiation, the doors sealed automatically. If you open them, we'll all die."

"We have to activate the self destruct."

"We can't sir. Whatever they hit us with burned out all of the data and control crystals in engineering. That's when the containment field failed and flooded the whole compartment with radiation. Even if you could get the door open, it would take at least an hour to replace the crystals."

The Ranger leader looked at the young ranger, and he saw not fear, but the encroaching darkness of death, "How bad were you exposed?"

"Bad enough sir."

The young ranger began to shake and shiver. His leader took him in his arms, and he tried to comfort him as the pain passed through him. The young ranger looked at him and whispered, "We live for the one, and if needed we die for the one." and then the young one closed his eyes and was silent.

He released the young ranger, and made his way back to the bridge. When he arrived, he found what was left of his crew.

"We can't destroy the ship, but we can destroy every instrument and every data crystal on board. We will leave nothing for the earthers."

The surviving rangers just nodded their heads, and began to destroy every panel and crystal that they could.

.
TCS Bull Run bridge: Captain Grove checked the scan results, and he was pleased.

"It looks like the leeches did the job. Have the Marines launch and board her."

His XO looked at him smiling, "Yes sir. Marine one, you're a go."

"Roger Bridge we are a go."

A few minutes later, the shuttle was pulling along side the floating ship. The pilot called back to the Marine Captain.

"Sir, I think we found a hatch, but we can't be sure. And judging by the scans were getting, you may want to use sonic cutters."

"Roger that."

The marine captain looked at his people, "OK you grunts, time to earn your pay."

He pressed a button on the panel next to the rear hatch, which was lined up with the ship. Four lines bolted out of the shuttle and attached to the ship, this was followed by a telescoping tube, which went flush against the hull. The captain pressed a few more buttons, and monofilament-cutting blades began to slice through the hull of the ship. After 2 minutes, the section of hull fell inside of the ship, and the marines rushed aboard.

They immediately noticed the lack of AG. "OK people, first squad that way and he pointed forward, second squad that way and he pointed aft. And remember people the Captain wants live prisoners."

The marines started to move out cautiously. Second squad was only finding bodies, and thought that the crew may have killed themselves, rather than be captured. Then as their point man was at a turn in the passageway, he saw a minbari moving toward a door. The point man signaled one moving, and the sergeant called out the plan.

"Ramirez, flash bang, Dovok net gun."

Both marines moved into position. Private Ramirez threw a flash grenade down the passage. As soon as it went off they heard someone scream. Then Corporal Dovok spun around the corner, braced himself against the edge and fired his net gun. The net quickly expanded on contact with the air, and the surprised ranger found himself completely entangled. The marine squad moved forward and quickly secured the prisoner. The rest of their search only turned up more bodies.

First squad was moving forward, and had not seen any signs of the crew, but they did see a lot of damage done to the equipment.

The captain looked at it, "Guess they don't want guests to know how their ship works."

As they moved closer to the front of the ship, they heard voices coming from a room ahead of them. Unfortunately, the Minbari saw them as well. The Minbari moved behind panels and stations about the room as best they could, and opened fire with hand weapons. The marines stayed away from the hatch as bolts of energy came out of it.

The captain looked at his squad, "Flashers and knockouts."

The two marines nearest the hatch shook their heads, and tossed in two flash grenades. Four concussion grenades quickly followed this. Then the marines dove through the hatch. The six minbari in the room were just floating, and groaning. The marines quickly secured them, and continued their search. After two more fights, the marines had secured the ship, and had a total of ten minbari prisoners. They also had two wounded of their own one was critical. The Captain relayed a message to the Bull Run, and had his wounded taken back to the shuttle for evac, while he and second squad stayed with the ship and prisoners. Lance Corporal Melvin White didn't make it back to the Bull Run.
