Lost Tribes

Part 55 (Surprise)

The legendary Battle star Pegasus moved through space like a prowling feline. It was read to take on any unwary cylon. Her Commander paced the bridge as he waited for his patrol to return. At his side was his new bride Diana trying hard to get him to eat.

"Damn it Cain you need to eat. If your blood sugar drops again I swear I will confine you to the life center."

Cain faced Diana with a glare and took the sandwich she brought him and took a bite then gulped down some Java.

Several bridge crew had grins on their face at least until he glared at them.

Just then the com went off.

"Sir it is Silver Spar. Bo Jay says the codes worked and they are in."

"Good news then." he set down the half eaten sandwich and said "Tell him to Cover the shuttle and the teams. I want them to report in ever 15 centon."

"Aye sir." Lt. George the communications officer said.

Cain picked up the Java and sipped it. His eyes now cold.

Diana sighed well at least he had eaten half. She slipped out to prepare the life center just on case.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Bo Jay was nervous about this mission. He did not totally trust Micha but he had faith in Cain. So he escorted the demo team. They were going to lay a trap for the cylons within their own space. The plan was crazy but brilliant. Bo Jay however was intent on keeping his team alive. So he fly cover for them.

Adama sat back in his office. Soon the battle would be joined. As promised he sent Cain ahead to scout and shake up the Cylons. The codes Micha had gave them an edge and he would use it. They were laying explosives and minefields in Cylon space. It would be a nasty shock to the base ships once Cain hit the ship yard. Hit and run. The Daggit and the hare. Cain would strike and run like a hare leading the cylons into the briar patch of mines and other surprises. It was not the way Cain normally would do things and it was this very fact that made the plan brilliant. With luck the cylons would follow never considering that there was more then the Pegasus. With luck the mines would do damage and then the strike team of fire stars would swoop in like lupus to devour what was left. Now all he had to do was wait for news of the battle. Adama hated to wait.
