Mission:
The Undiscovered Starbase
Location: USS Albion, Bridge
Timeline: Current
OFF:
Okay, a little clean up here that was mostly a result of a typo in my original post. My bad!!! The locations are supposed to be this:
Starbase 10 (arrested): Sprague, Andrews
Starbase 10: Hadden, Genno, Mack
USS Albion: Glass, Bull, Spivick
To fix: All the actions that Mack was taking on the bridge should belong to Bull. Mack was on the Starbase the whole time with the others.
With that said...
ON:
::torpedoes fired from the Albion begin their arc around the station toward the Ferengi ships::
Glass: "Wow, Ensign Bull, you really know your tactics! I never would have thought about arcing the torpedoes. It's ingenious!"
Bull: "Yeah, they really should have promoted me to Captain by now."
::torpedoes come out of the curve toward the Ferengi ships::
Glass: "I'm really glad you're here. My first instinct would have been to radio the Starbase to see if they were expecting the Ferengi ships... Shows how little I know!" ::chuckles::
Bull: "I mean, really, I was ready for command by my Sophomore year at the Academy."
::torpedoes miss the Ferengi ships and begin to arc back around the other side of the station::
Glass: "Oh no, Mr. Bull, what do we do?!?"
Bull: "Easy. Computer, fire another torpedo burst, same trajectory."
::The Albion fires another round of torpedoes::
Glass: "You think of everything! One day they'll call this the 'Bull Maneuver.'"
Bull: "If I'm honest with myself, I probably should already be an Admiral."
::torpedoes come out of the curve on the other side of the station, heading toward the Albion::
Bull: "Maybe I'll start my own fleet."
Glass: "That would be amazing, Ensign Bull."
BOOM!
Glass: "What was that? What happened???"
Bull: "Uh, I dunno?!?"
::second barrage of torpedoes hits the Albion:: BOOM!
OFF:
What's next?
