Janeway: I've thought about it. The problem is we only have a rough estimate of the fleets location. We would be going in blind. But with your ships here it may just be enough....
He pulls up the estimate fleet size and location.
Janeway: if we could suprise them we could knock out some of their heavy ships first. That just may work now.

Hargrove: We can send our SCV Wing in first to recon the area and conduct an opening run. Admiral Forrester recently used a similar strategy at Sanvar II. Then I suggest the Home Fleet be split amongst your own fleet elements to bolster your forces.
Janeway: very well sounds like a plan. We can begin as soon as you are ready.
Meanwhile
Thrax: the republic has sent aide to the federation. Our plan is in danger.
Malick: fret not you are ready for this situation. You still have plenty of ships to out number the federation and republic fleet. Besides worst case scenario you know what to do.
Thrax: I still say you should have let me move in before they hot reinforcements.
Malick: you worry to much. I'll be in touch.
" Now the gate has been unlatched headstones pushed aside; corpses shift and offer room ,a fate you must abide."
Laura: *While Ruben is keeping them busy helping them* Who is Karlie to you? She shares your hair color and not your brothers which means it's more likely she's related to you directly. Is she your daughter or sister?

*Jess sighs.*
Jess: It wasn't her mother who abandoned her... It was her father...
I couldn't afford to take care of her and... All I know how to do is fight, Laura. How could I raise her stuck in a bed with a medkit?
Mark's wife had just died from Torvinian Flu while 3 months pregnant when I had Karlie. He was in a better place to take care of her and I knew he wanted a child. So, I went to the Civil Records Bureau and had them transfer custody of Karlie to him... He adopted her for me.

Hargrove: There's one more thing, Admiral. The Home Fleet is currently carrying a total of 12 SA-50 subspace warheads. One would be enough to devastate the Tzenkethi fleet if necessary without causing permanent damage to subspace.
Janeway: good to know admiral. I'll keep that in mind. I'd rather not use those if possible.
He gets up from his seat
Janeway: let's find out what they have waiting for us.
*Hargrove nods and joins Janeway on his flagship's bridge.
1 hour later, they recieve telemetry from the SCV recon mission before the SCVs start their raid, concentrating on the un-shielded capital ships of the Tzenkethi Fleet, knocking a few out of orbit with no engines and destroying a handful before punching their way out with moderate losses.*

Laura: Hey you've been here for her the whole time.
*Jess looks at her, before smiling a little.*
Jess: I wasn't about to leave my little girl defenceless...
*She smiles with a little pride as they watch the footage of Karlie competing.*
But the competitions were her idea.
Laura: She's good. I think she might understand if you tell her.
*Jess nods slowly.*
Jess: Maybe it's time...
Laura: I'm here for you.
Jess: Thanks.
*Karlie's training room. The room is well padded with a holo-emitter in the ceiling (which must have cost Mark a lot of money) and a computer panel next to the door which Ruben is working on.*
Mark: I can't get the program to load properly. It loads the image fine but the AI program doesn't.
Janeway: all ships make the jump to the following coordinates and engage once in range.
Meanwhile
Thrax: report
Officer: multiple ships damaged sir.
Thrax: call in the remaining unsc and karee ship to bolder our numbers. Also activate the mines. Once the enemy fleet arrives open fire
*The Republic squadrons form up with their Federation counterparts, bolstering the fleet's strength. Meanwhile, the SCVs regroup and launch more cloaked hit-and-run attacks, being more conservative this time.*
Ruben: The system. Parts of this aren't even connected. The part for imaging is fine but the rest of it I need to fix. *he works to fix it as best he can* I mean despite the faults this is good stuff so I can fix it.

Mark: Last time I hire a Klingon to install a holosystem...
The tzenkethi fleet moves in to engage the enemy forces as the unsc forces hood back firing from a longer range as they have two new cruisers that are making getting a lock on enemy ships harder.
USS Cairo
Janeway: all ships push the tzenkethi line. We need to break through and take out those unsc ships.
Helm: aye sir
As the ships start to move in they hit the mines and the karee jump in behind the federation fleet.

*The SCVs focus their efforts on the ships in the centre of the Tzenkethi line with the greatest Federation pressure, while the bulk of the Home Fleet turns to guard the flank against the Karee.*
Unsc Captain: tzenkethi ships reenforce your center line. All artillery ships focus on the enemy capital ships. I want all escorts to form up longswords you are clear for your bombing runs on republic ships.
Officer: aye sir!
The karee begin focusing on the republic ships.
Cairo.
Janeway: deploy all fighters we need to punch a hole in their lines.

*The Republic ships launch fighters and begin opening fire with their point-defence grids, riddling the longswords with ZPC fire and micro-torpedoes. Meanwhile, the SCVs take advantage of the Tzenkethi redeployment and rake the Tzenkethi line from end to end.*

OOC: Yeah.
*Jess and Mark finish talking in the kitchen and Jess sits down next to Laura.*
Jess: So, your Dad finish your dojo yet?
Karlie: Mostly...
Mark: We're still having trouble with the holo-program.
