Mission: Mission 114: Be All My Sins Remember'd
Location: Various Locations - USS Pembo
Timeline: 0930Hrs - October 31st, 2393

The USS Pembo travelled at low warp as she arrived on station. Commander Victoria Yamaguchi was standing at the tactical station next to the person she had known was her chief of tactical. Lieutenant Penthesilea "Ilea" Rohr regarded her commanding officer, she found her to be a model and she momentarily wondered what she would be like in bed. When Rohr had heard she was being asked to handle a classified mission that was outright illegal. She had most certainly not expected her commander to look like she did. She had expected someone who was grizzled and ugly. Not a real beauty like Victoria Yamaguchi. "Passive scans reveal eight capital class ships of various types... These two are carriers and this one..." Rohr narrowed her eyes as she regarded Yamaguchi. "That's an aerospace control ship... Someone wants this area covered... With coms and sensors at all times..." Rohr tapped the display. "I'm not liking this layout skipper. They have this system locked down and they are clearly expecting company from someone..."

"Yes... I'm assuming its either because of us... Or someone else..." Yamaguchi said softly. "Either way, we are running out of time." Yamaguchi nodded to the Klingon-looking female before she went over to her command chair. Yamaguchi smiled as she slid her lithe form into the chair. "Well... What can I say?"

Lt Commander Alexandra Harrison regarded the tactical display on the viewscreen with a critical eye. "We have two options into the system," She commented. "Neither of them is good," she added.

"They'll see us long before we get to our destination..." Yamaguchi answered quietly. "Someone must be expecting us." as she narrowed her eyes.

Harrison rose to her feet. "We need a way through this mess..." she paused. "It would have been nice if we'd had a cloaking device."

Lieutenant Taselle Dragon turned her head. "Commander... I could make one... But it'll take several days to do it." she paused before the female Cardassian pressed ahead with her sentence. "Do we have that kind of time?"

Lieutenant JG Tienn Halaar looked at the display as she gently ran her fingers over her pannel. "One of their frigates just changed course... They seem to be heading this way..." she regarded the display. "Captain. I think they might have detected us."

Senior Chief Petty Officer T'Paaru narrowed her eyes as she tapped the Eisenberg transceiver that she had in her left ear. "Captain. I'm detecting increased com chatter... They are moving to investigate an anomaly... Us."

"Helm." Victoria Yamaguchi paused, she knew their cover was blown the moment she said it. "Try and get us out of here."

"Aye Captain." Tienn knew this as well while the young Bajoran watched as two of the opposition's ships went to warp, directly for the Pembo.

It was Lieutenant Penny Smith who delivered the sudden if not unexpected bad news. "Captain, two ships have gone to warp. Intercept in six seconds."

"Battlestations." Yamaguchi's next order was obvious to all concerned, even herself as she went back to her command chair and she sat down. "

The red alert began to scream, the lights on the bridge dimmed as the ship and crew all prepared for battle when suddenly the two ships emerged from warp, one of them dropped back and moved off to starboard while the other ship charged in, firing her main phasers.

Battle was joined. Yamaguchi smiled. "Ilea. Welcome them properly please?"

Lieutenant Penthesilea "Ilea" Rohr nodded her head. "Aye Captain. Firing phasers... Loading missile bays..." the Klingon female paused a moment as the readouts on her displays all indicated readiness to fire. "And firing!"

Just like that, missile hatches on the small Federation frigate opened and out emerged forty missiles, all of which smashed into the two ships presently attacking her when suddenly a third ship appeared on the scene. Also firing its weapons.

Yamaguchi knew the game was up. "Blast it, we'll never get through all this garbage..." she whispered, more to herself than to anyone else. "Status?" she called.

"Shields are at forty percent and falling. One frigate is disabled, one destroyer is... Now disabled..." came the unexpected responses from Penny Smith.

"I need another two minutes for our missiles to be reloaded." Ilea Rohr commented from the tactical station, almost as if she were reading the federation news service feed rather than in the battle for survival.

Yamaguchi sighed as she knew what she had to do. "Helm, get us out of here... We can't fight their entire fleet... Not without a distraction and we don't have it."

Tienn worked her pannel. "Aye Captain." and with that, the Pembo shot forward into warp, while the second destroyer could enjoy its victory.
