Borg poured out of their alcoves and surrounded Loskene from every direction. Loskene was ready to defend himself when suddenly, they stopped.
Borg: Resistance is futile. Escape is impossible.
Loskene: If you're trying to tell me to give up, that is something I cannot and will not do!
Borg: You are outnumbered. Resistance is futile.
Loskene: Try me.
Borg: Your biological defenses have weakened. You're cellular structure is breaking down.
Loskene: What are you talking about?
Borg: We know about your biological status. You entered stellar space years ago. Your telepathic skills have also weakened. If you do not return to fluidic space, you will perish.
Loskene: Shut up. You know nothing about my species.
Borg: We will not argue. We wish to negotiate.
Loskene: Ha. Negotiate. You have nothing I want.
Borg: We can help you. You're cellular structure is slowly degrading. We have the techology to build a fluidic generator. With this, we will be able to restore your abilities and health.
Loskene: You know nothing of my biology.
One of the Borg walked over to a console and activated it. A small diagram that depicted a device popped up.
Borg: This is the regenerator. We wish to negotiate.
Loskene: No.
Borg: Resistance is futile.
Several of the Borg advanced towards Loskene.
Borg: You're biological defenses have also worn down. Assimilation may be successfull.
Loskene: I wouldn't count on it.
Borg: With you assimilated, you will be a great asset. We will be willing to spare you, however. You are a starfleet officer. Commodore. Serial number 10394857. You are in command of a Sovereign class Federation starship. You know of Your Federation's tactics.
Loskene: If you think I'm going to give you any information about the Federation, you can just forget about it.
Borg: If we were to assimilate you, we would gain the information either way.
Loskene: I'd never sacrifice an entire race to save myself.
Borg: You're species has shown us differentely.
Loskene: Well, that taught you to keep your hands out of the beehive. Well, I might as well get down to business. Pack your bags and get out. This is Federation territory. There are several ships in orbit just waiting to come down here and "remove" you.
Borg: The Federation will be destroyed either way. Once we assimilate you, you will become one with us, and we will gain the knowledge eventually.
OFF: Thought I'd add an interesting twist to it...

THIS WAS POSTED BY RIKER, it was on the old thread so I ve just moved it top here ;D
On the Planet
(The Away Team saw a red light in the distance. Walker and the away team scooped their phasers up from off the ground and aimed blindly at the target. The Bajoran picked up the only weapon he could find, it was a small dull blade that he picked up from the floor. At that moment a light flickered revealing what appeared to be an assimilated Starfleet Officer. The Borg walked slowly towards the group)
Borg: You will be assimilated, resistance is futile.
(The Tactical Officer quickly pulled the trigger on his Rifle releasing a blue bolt that knocked the borg down)
Walker: =^=6 to transport to the Victory=^=
(Walker waited a couple of seconds and got no response then proceeeded to try again)
Walker: =^= Victory do you copy?=^=
Walker: Lets get back to the transport coordinates.
(The away team walked as quickly as they could to the coordinates while at the same time keeping a close eye out for more Borg. On the way back Walker and the away team saw what looked like a Federation scout ship that appeared to have had a terrible landing. The Windshield was cracked, the hull was dented and some of the consoles inside appeared to be burnt. In the front of the ship were 2 pale officers with blood dripping down their faces. Walker and the away team looked away in disgust.)
Walker: Is there anyway to get this ship running again?
Science Officer: There is indeed some damage to some of the systems but it looks repairable.
(Walker looks in the security officer's direction)
Walker: I want you to keep trying to the Victory.
Security: Yes sir.
(Walker approached the aliens standing on the other side of the shuttle)
Walker: Are any of you engineers?
Vulcan: I have some knowledge of that field.
Walker: Would you be able to assist my Science officer on repairing this ship and then we can leave this planet.
(The Vulcan took a moment to think about it)
Vulcan: I have decided to assist you in the repair of this ship.
Walker: Excellent.
(Walker signalled for the Security Officer, keep a look out for the Borg, we need as much time as we can get for them to repair the ship.)
(The Security Officer nodded

The vulcan how claimed his name was Votak was as good as his word, he opened up the auxillary power conduit and with Ensign Corman began to run diagnostics of the vessel. Walker paced about the ship his hand never once leaving his phaser holster. "Did you know they were here?" he indicated the downed craft. The bajoran woman looked away a moment and then nodded. "We do not involve ourselves with outsiders." "Outsiders" Walker scoffed, "We all federation members." "Maybe once. We never asked you to come here, we dont want you. Now it looks as if the borg have found us, and its all your fault." "Hardly. The Victory was led here by your transmissions." "What transmissions? We emit nothing from our colony. The risk of discovery is too great." her voice trailed off. "I have to go back. Go back to teh colony." "That is not possible. No one leaves this area until the scoutship is repaired." "I m not under your command I ll go where I like" she replied and began to storm of in to the wasteland.

The Borg advanced a few more steps towards Loskene.
Loskene: Well, I suppose I have no choice but to destroy you.
Loskene took out his communicator and tried hailing the Jefferson. He managed to get a channel open, but just barely.
T'Ale: Comm- --Ale here.
Loskene: Commander? This is Loskene. I suppose you know where I am on the surface?
T'Ale: Yes sir. But we can't seem to lock onto-- too-- inter--ence.
Loskene: I know. I want you to listen to me carefully. I want you to target my position with torpedos.
T'Ale: Sir?
Loskene: Do as I say, Commander.
T'Ale: ...Yes sir.
Loskene: Fire on my command.... Well, I'm afraid that this little assimilation will have to be canceled.
The Borg stopped in there tracks.
Loskene: Get back or I will blow us all to hell.
Loskene looked up at the ceiling and noticed a large glowing green chamber.
Loskene: That's your vinculum isn't it? If this is destroyed, there will be no more collective here.
The Borg materialized out of the room and Loskene was suddenly alone.
T'Ale: .....Sir?
Loskene: Once I'm out of the building, fire on this location!
T'Ale: Sir... Losing----Sig--
Loskene: Commander T'Ale? Come in....Come in! Agh... Damn.
Loskene took in a deep breath and headed outside of the structure.
Loskene: T'Ale?! T'Ale? Fire! Fire now!
Loskene looked up at the sky and saw nothing. His phaser was not powerful enough to destroy the vinculum, so he ran off into the barren wasteland, trying to continue his original mission, to find the Victory's away team...

After the security officer recived the comm for the Victory he ran to cmdr. Walker.
"Sir , we have restored communication with the Victory.The chanel is open and there is only little interfeerence."
This is no anomaly , vote for Savali.

Magellan remained on the edge of his seat. He hated borg. "Sir The Jefferson is firing" Felix alerted Magellan leapt out of his seat and ran to Felix's side. "On screen" The bridge crew watched as the flash of a photon torpedo dwindled into the distance towards the planet. "Get me the Jefferson now." Magellan demanded. In short order T'Ale s face appeared on the viewscreen. "Whats happening Commander?" The Commander relayed what Loskene had said and ordered. Magellan nodded gravely, this confrmed that there were borg on the surface and who knew how many. He called off the Comm and instead contacted Walker. "Comnmander Walker please report." Walkers voice replied rather huskily "We are fine, we have been attacked by Borg but have repelled them for the moment. We are camped at the ruins of teh scoutship." "Have you made contact with the Colonists." "Yes sir, and they are nt very amicable. I have a Vulcan helping repair the scout ship and a Bajoran has just left us for the main habitation." "What do they have to say for themselves?" "Not much, just that they don t want us and most interestingly that they didnt send the signal." "Very interesting. If thats true they may have a sabateur in their midst. Commander I m going to have to ask you to do something very difficult. I m going to send you Commander Steve with a security team of 20 officers. He may have information pertinent to you. I want you to go to the colony, find out whats happening and get as many of these people out of there as possible. Keep a look out for Commodore Loskene, he may need your help. I ll send Steve down in Runabouts, they can provide fire support and help transport refugees." "Ah Sir" Walker replied "I ll wait here for Steves teams" "Good luck Jeff. Victory Out." "Did you hear all that Steve" Magellan asked "Yes sir" "Then get a move on" Steve nodded with a smile and ran to the turbolift. "Savali get me a comm link to the El Salvador I need an update. And get an engineer up here I want some views on anti borg technology." "Aye sir putting you through now"

(As Walker, the away team, and the Vulcan scouted for more civilians to evacuate there was suddenly a few bright lights in the sky. The officers looked up startled that it might be more unwanted visitors but Walker was the first to realize that it was more likely Commander Steve and his officers. Riker waited for the runabouts to make a soft landing on the surface and then approached with the away team. The runabouts lit the area to reveal areas that Walker and the others hadn't seen yet. The Door of the lead runabout slid open and Steve hopped out.)
Walker: Hey there Steve haven't seen you in a while.
(Walker shook hands with his old buddy from the intel department)
Steve: It's good to see you again. Walker: Same here, too bad it wasn't under better circumstances.
(Steve nodded)
(Walker turned around to face the Vulcan)
Walker: This is Commander Steve, he is also a Starfleet Officer.
(The Vulcan nodded with a blank face)
Walker: Well lets get in the runabout and we can devise a plan to evacuate the citizens. Hopefully Loskene will find us here.
(Walker waved the away team into a runabout nearby while the Security officers guarded the runabout and kept a lookout for more Borg.)

Commadore Loskene continued to trek through the wasteland. There were several Borg scattered throughout the area, and Loskene managed to take care of them. He must have been walking for several hours because he could no longer see buildings. It was just desert all around him.
Loskene stopped for a minute and looked around him to make sure there were no Borg following him. He tried using his telepathy to sense if there was any intelligent life in the area, but Loskene began to realize the grim truth...that his skills were fading, that he was having a tougher time killing the Borg, that stellar space was slowly killing him. Loskene hated to believe the Borg, and he hated himself for believing them.
Loskene heard a loud humming noise from behind him. He looked up and saw a starfleet shuttle fly overhead. Loskene took out his phaser and fired a shot into the air. The shuttle stopped and swooped around. It landed a few meters in front of him. Two officers stepped out.
Walker: Hey, are you Commadore Loskene?
Loskene: Yes, are you the Starfleet officers that lost communication?
Walker: Yes, but we are ready to get out of here now. I strongly suggest that you do the same.
Loskene: Gladly.
Walker: Then climb aboard.
Loskene: How are the ships?
Walker: We have recently got a communcation through to the Victory, but the Victory has had trouble communicating with the Jefferson... Once we get to the Victory, Magellan would like to meet with you and discuss the situation. So what were you doing on the surface?
The shuttle began to rock and vibrate.
Walker: Report!
Officer: We are being fired at from the surface!
Walker: Evasive manuevers. Let's increase speed and get the hell out of here!

Samantha, T’San and Robert followed Felix and Tal Lyra. Felix had his tricorder out and was staring at it intensely scanning for the computer core. Samantha had her tricorder out as well continues scanning for life forms. Samantha hoped when they ran into some Borg they acted like it said in the records. They will ignore them, but she still had her hand on her phaser just in case. But even if they ignored them now they wouldn’t ignore them when they started accessing their data. She wondered why the commander needed all the information on Species 8472 regeneration chamber. She could be too curious.
They walked through the wasteland and watching for the Borg. She heard stories about the Borg of her grandmother and about the battle at Wolf 359. Her grandmother had been there and had lost a lot of friends, she’d had to watch one of them being assimilated when the Borg boarded the vessel, she had barely escaped. Then she’d heard the stories that were told at the academy and even an account of someone who had been assimilated and how they took control of every action. She was making herself more and more nervous and she tried to bloke the though out of her head. But she began to think of scenarios of them being assimilated.
“We are getting close,” Felix commented breaking the silence and interrupting everyone's thoughts.

As Tal Lyra was leading everyone towards the colony and as they were getting more closer , and havent encountered any Borg yet everyone was worried , is it possible that the Borg have not detected them yet or are they ignoring them , but whatever they were doing , once they tried to acess their computer core they would shurely atack them.
BUt as Felix was looking at his ricoder there seemd to be a sort of dampening field which was preventing him to pinpoint the exact location of the core , he managed to narrow it down to three big buildings. But couldnt not isolate the exact location.
Felix:"Sir , i have narrowed the possible location of the computer core to three large structures , but cannot get the exact location because there is a dampening field around the colony, which is preventing detailed scans.",Felix said to Robert
Robert:"We will have to inspect one building at a time, Tal Lyra do you know what is within this buildings?"
Tal Lyra:"I only know that the borg has them , we never went near any one of them because we were afraid they might assimilate us."
Robert:"Lt. Savali we will inspect one building at a time , T'San you join Felix at the front of th team , Tal Lyra you get in the middle and me and Lt.Parker will cover the back."
"Understood ",everyone answered
And so the went towards the closest building. Felix and T'San tried to open the door , but they wouldnt budge.
"Sir the door wont open , we will have to use our phasers to cut it open."
"Very well but be quick."
And Felix and T'San took out their phasers to cut the door open , once they opened the door and entered they found themselves in a dark room with green lights around , it was filled with borg alcoves , but the borg were not on them , Felix used his tricoder to scan the room to see if the core was here , meanwhile Sam aproached a computer terminal to attempt to access the core from here.
"Sir i can not access the core from this locationit has too many algorithms protecting it , it seems the borg are trying to hide something real good."
"Lt. Savali , is the core located in this room ?"
"No sir , it is not within this building."
"Ok lets move out people.", Robert said
And the team went out of the building and started moving to another one , a large structure , when they aproached it they noticed the doors are open.

The slowly moved towards it with there weapons held high and Samantha moved to the side of the door leaning against the wall and pushed the door. The slowly creaked open and the officers had their weapon out pointing at the darkness that appeared behind the door.
“Do you detect any life forms?” asked Robert.
“No, I don’t but I can only scan the first 10 meters into the building,” Samantha answered. Robert jested to the Felix and T’San and they slowly entered the building and the other officers followed them in. The room was again filled with alcoves with no Borg inside. Samantha wondered where they were. Felix scanned the building again and Samantha again tried to access the computer, but had no luck again with their algorithms stopping her again.
“Lt is the computer core here?” Robert asked. Felix finished his scan and then answered.
“No, it isn’t in this building either.”
“It must be in the last one then,” Samantha commented. They moved out and headed towards the last building. They where about 20 meters away when Samantha tricorder bleeped and Samantha felt her stomach titan.
“What is it?” asked the commander.
“There are life forms behind that door and I think they are Borg,” Samantha reported.

A cold chill run down Agalacticae’s spine every time they entered one of those dark buildings. As the computer core had not been in the previous two building it had to be in the last. Robert wondered what was worst, entering into the darkness of each building or knowing that the last one would contain the computer core and probably would be protected. Just as he feared Samantha’s tricorder beeped, when they approached the last buildings.
Samantha: “There are life forms behind that door and I think they are Borg”
Agalacticae: “How many, Lieutenant?”
Samantha: “I don’t know, I cannot get a clear reading”
Agalacticae: “From what you have, what is your estimation?”
Samantha: “Sir, I really could not tell”
Agalacticae: “Just give me a number, Parker!”
Before the beginning of the mission Robert had read Samantha’s personal file and knew that she was an excellent officer, fresh from the academy. She seemed to rely mostly on what she knew for sure only reluctantly predicting result. Robert was aware that Samantha could not possibly give him the exact number of Borg waiting in the last building, but that was not the point of his inquiry either. Forcing her to give him an estimate she would have to rely on her instincts to assess the situation instead of reason. From his previous assignments Agalacticae had learned that the assessment of a situation based on instincts often was amazingly close to the way the situation would turn out in reality.
Samantha: “I assume that there are about 12 Borg inside, SIR”
Agalacticae noticed the way she said “sir”, obviously annoyed by the way he had required her to answer. Hopefully the number she had given him would turn out to be close to the actual number. Then she would experience that she could rely on her instincts to a certain degree. That would be enough reward for him.
Agalacticae: “Seems like there is only one way to get to the computer core and that is straight ahead! Lt. Salvali!”
Felix: “Yes, sir”
Agalacticae: “Before we attempt to get to the computer core, I would like you to escort Tal Lyra back to the shuttle. I do not want to endanger a civilian’s life!”
Felix: “But sir….”
Agalacticae: “We’ll wait for you here before we approach the building”
Felix: “Aye, sir!”
Lt. Salvali turned around and escorted Tal Lyra back to the shuttle, giving the rest of the crew some time to discuss how they should proceed.
Agalacticae: “Lt. Parker, as you are the one to retrieve the information – do you have any suggestions?” Soon afterward Lt. Salvali returned and Agalacticae asked him the same question.
Agalacticae: “Lt, Salvali, what would you propose as our next step?”

OFF: Joint post by Samantha Parker and Felix Saveli done over MSN.
"Well sir we have scanned the entire building and it doesn’t seem that there are any other entrances and as we need to get the data as soon as possible to help cmdr.Loskene. I propose that we go in shooting and get the data."
"I see do you have any propositions Lt. Parker?" asked Robert.
"Well the Borg should ignore us until we try to access the data," Samantha said, "But we try to disable their sensors or anything like that they will know and come after us."
"We really need a distraction to draw them away from the build," Robert commented.
"Well there is one other thing we could do, but it might not work,” said Felix.
"It could buy us some time, but they will after a while detect our presence and return," Samantha said.
"Well we needed a little time to get access to the core, once we gain the info a conflict will be unavoidable, I’m listening to your proposition Lt.", said Robert
"We will return to the previous building and connect with their nexus, and send a command sending them away from this building, it might work but not for a long time," said Felix.
"Very well lt. you and lt. Parker go to the previous building and do that. Lt. T’San and me will remain here, “said Robert.
"Aye sir," Samantha and Felix said and began walking to the other building.
Sam and Felix chatted about the plan and the chance of it succeeding as they walked over to the building. The arrived a few minutes later and pushed the creaky door open and stepped inside. The build felt kind of spooky with the darkness and green lights. Samantha searched for the nearest console where she could access the nexus. She still had her phaser out, some how expecting a Borg to appear from behind. She soon found the access port and began to access the Borg’s computer system.
Just as she began to do that Felix approached her with that piece of equipment, which he got just as they beamed of the Victory.
"I think if we use this", he said while getting out a strange piece of equipment, which looked like a modified tricorder.
"What is it?" Samantha inquired.
"Well this is a device developed at Starfleet command based on the knowledge of Captain Picard and 7 of 9 as they were a part of the Borg, and it should help us to connect to the nexus,” said Felix.
He took the device and connected it to the console, just as he activated it a dozen Borg appeared around them.

Agalacticae enjoyed the way Lt. Parker and Lt. Salvali worked together. He somehow got the feeling that they knew each other better than he expected. Finding a way to distract the Borg, even for a short while was exactly what Robert wanted. Taking on over 20 Borg on their own would be a suicide misson.
When they asked Agalacticae for permission to return to the last building to implement their plan, Robert was somewhat doubtful about sending Lt. Parker. She was the one to retrieve the data once they would gain access to the computer core. If they would get trapped somewhere during their mission, the advantage of distracting the Borg would be lost. But as Lt. Salvali would not be able to connect to the nexus without the help of the young engineer Robert reluctantly agreed to their plan.
Agalacticae: “Is it possible to use the transporter to beam you out of the building if anything might happen?”
Salvali: “No sir, the dampening field that interfered with our tricorders also disables the transporters.
Agalacticae: “If you are certain that you will be able to distract the Borg I want you to leave right away. Lt. T’San and I will stay to monitor the building with the computer core. I want you to keep contact over the communicator at all times!”
They both nodded and headed towards the previous building, talking about their plan. Robert was quite impressed by the two junior officers and their way of handing the situation. Robert could see them disappear inside the building, when time seemed to move slower, not being able to see what they are doing.
=/\= Agalacticae to Salvali – are you making progress? =/\=
=/\= Preparing to access computer-core – stand-by Commander =/\=
Robert could hear Samantha’s fingers running over the computer console accessing the computer core, aided by some sort of equipment Lt. Salvali had brought with him, when Lt. T’San suddenly addressed him.
T’San: “Sir, look!”
Agalacticae turned to look into the direction of the building containing the computer-core. The doors of the building opened and about 15 Borg started to move in the direction of Felix and Samantha’s location. They seemed to have succeeded in getting the Borg’s attention, that was certain, but their access to the nexus seemed the cause of the distraction, making them go straight for the building in which the two Lieutenants still were working on the console.
oO Fifteen Oo Agalacticae thought to himself, smiling that Samantha was right with her assumption on how many Borg there would be in the building.
=/\= Lt. Parker – what is happening? =/\=
Robert could hear phaser fire through the communicator, indicating that it was the two Lieutenants indeed that were the cause of the Borg’s sudden interest in the other building.
=/\= Our connection to the Nexus has triggered a response in the Borg of this building, sir. Lt. Salvali is currently fighting them off, while I try to redirect them =/\= =/\= You better hurry up Lt. – there are 15 more Borg heading your way from our building. T’San and I will follow and engage them before they reach you position if you don’t succeed redirecting them =/\=
Robert could hear Samantha sighing over the comm, working as fast as she could, while Lt. Salvali tried to buy her some time, fighting the Borg in the building. T’San and Agalacticae followed the approaching Borg, ready to open fire if they would come to close. Droplets of sweat formed on Agalacticae’s forehead when the Borg had gotten halfway.
=/\= Parker? =/\=
=/\= A few seconds more, sir =/\=
It seemed like an eternity passing by. Robert signaled T’San to get into shooting position facing the approaching Borg.
Agalacticae: “Fire at my command”
Robert could hear his heart beating as the Borg, unaffected by the presence of T'San and himself, moved closer. He was about to give orders to open fire, when suddenly the Borg made a sharp turn approaching the first building they had inspected, joined by another group coming from behind, exiting the building Felix and Samantha had entered.
=/\= Report =/\= Agalacticae ordered Felix and Samantha over the communicator.
=/\= Seems like we managed to distract them – we have been able to make them believe that someone is connecting to the nexus from the first building, sir! =/\=
=/\= I am impressed Lieutenants, but there is no time for being polite now – we have to get to the computer core, before the Borg return. Has anyone of you been injured? =/\=
=/\= No, sir =/\=
=/\= Meet me and T’San at the entry of the third building right away!=/\=
=/\= Aye, sir =/\=
All four officers started heading towards the third building and gathered at the door, that only a few moments ago hid a deadly force of 15 Borg.
Agalacticae: “Let’s spread out searching for the computer core. At the first sign of it report, so Lt. Parker can begin the data extraction. Let’s move!”
With their tricorders raised everyone spread out to find the exact location of the computer core. Time was precious.

Sam walked away from the group and each officer head of in different directions to find the computer core. Samantha stared down at the tricorder watching for the power signature and any life form readings. The whole building seemed to look the same filled with Borg alcoves and green lighting and access panel every so often. But they didn’t seem to be able to find the computer core. Then she picked up the signal of a power source. She tapped her commbadge to open a communications channel.
=/\= I’ve picked up the power signal of the computer core and I’m heading there now =/\=
Samantha informed as she walked quickly following the signal, but still keeping her eye on the life form readings.
=/\= Understood, all officers head to Lt Parker’s position =/\= Robert ordered.
=/\= Aye Sir =/\= came the response from all the officers.
Samantha arrived at the computer core, which gleamed with green light, and she began the first job of shutting down the force fields protecting the core. The Borg would now know she was here, so she had to work fast.

Agalacticae stared onto his tricorder heading into the darkness of the building, his senses put on the highest alert, noting every crack beneath his feet. They had to be close to the computer core, although his readings weren’t pointing into one single direction. He had just entered a room filled with Borg equipment and spider webs, indicating that it has not been used for quite a while, and trying to locate anything moving in the darkness of the room.
=/\= I’ve picked up the power signal of the computer core and I’m heading there now =/\=
Agalacticae almost screamed at the sound of Lt. Parker’s voice in surprise. Taking a moment to recompose him self instead of shouting back at her, why she had to scream into her commbadge he ordered the rest of the officers to Lt. Parker’s position. When he arrived at the computer core Samantha had already started working on deactivating the force fields protecting the core. Only seconds after both Lt. Salvali and T’San arrived at the location.
Agalacticae: “Lt. Parker, can we assist you in any way? – Otherwise I would like Lt. T’San to guard the entrance of the building in case any Borg might show up, giving us some time to react once they appear. Lt. Salvali I need you to look for other exits from this building, giving us alternative escape-routes, while I will assist Lt. Parker in her effort to retrieve the data.”

“Once I have the force field down the generators will need to destroyed so it doesn’t relative,” Samantha informed. He nodded. A same returned to work. She searched her way through the algorithms to get into the controls for switching of the force field. She wished they could walk through them like the Borg. It took her five minutes but she began to get into the system.
“I’ve got it,” she screamed pleased with herself. Robert had his phaser aim for the first emitter. Samantha entered the command and a flash of light showed the force field going out. Robert fired his phaser at the four emits and the force field and smoke appeared from the panels that he had just shoot at. One down two to go. She moved forward and began work on getting the second field down. It was the same sort as procedure as last time and she managed to get it down a lot fast and then she moved onto the final one.
This one was more complicated than the other two with a lot of algorithms in place. It took her another few minutes to break though these and the last force field feel and she felt pleased with herself. She moved over to the computer core and took her backpack of her back and took out the device that she had been given for extracting the data. She plugged it in to one of the Borg access panels. All the data was encrypted. She would have to decode some off it too find the information they were looking for but the rest could wait until they get got back to the ship. She didn’t want to risk the Borg catching them and assimilation.
She entered the system and navigated her way though breaking the locks as she went though. It took her a little while to find the information on species 8472 and when she did she began to transfer the information. She noticed that there was a lot there.
“There are about 10 make that 20 Borg heading towards our location,” informed Felix.
“How much longer are you going to be?” asked Robert.
“It going take a little while, there’s a lot of data here and we haven’t got the time to decode it all to find the relevant data,” Samantha explained.

Felix:"Sir might i remind you that we did a scan on the building before we entered it and there were no other entrances."
Samantha:"And sir i could use his help as with hes expertise in computer systems we could get the data faster and even get out before the borg arrives."
Aglaticae:"Yes , you are bot right , you will asist lt. Parker in accessing the data."
After Sam broth down the forcefields and started to decrypt the data and lt. T'Sans report on borg arriving , Felix realised they dont have much time.
Felix:"Here use this", he said handing her the device from earlier, she activated it and connected it to the core , only a minute later the data regarding species 8472 was decrypthed.
Samantha:"How did you..?"
Robert:"No time for talk now we should hurry it up and get away before the borg corners us."
Samantha:"Right , lets hurry it up ."
A few moments later all of the data was transfered and secured.
RObert:"Ok pick up your phasers and target the core , fire on my mark ..... now"
And so they fired but it had no affect some shields have risen over the core which none of their modified weapons could penetrate.
Samantha:"What now?"

This happens before the borg cube arrived in the system.
Robert:"Any suggestions people ?"
Felix:"Well i have one we could activate the self distruct on the little device Lt.Parker has used to access the core and it would destroy the data."
Robert:"Lets do it the borg will be here any minute. Lt. Parker connect the device to the core and activate the self destruct."
Sam:"Yes sir.", and she started to connect it back to the core in a few moments she declared she is done.
Robert:"Ok people lets move it out , how long do we have before destruction?"
Felix:"5 minutes"
Ok lets go people. And they went towards the exit where lt. T'San was expecting them.
Robert:"Where are the borg?"
T'San:"They are inside the building aproaching our location."
Robert:"Any suggestions ?"
Felix:"Lets fight our way out , the longer we wait the more of them will get here."
Robert:"Ok people lets do it."
And everyone rised their phaser riffles and headed towards the exit. As they turned around a corner , they found 5 borg facing them , "No time to be nice people" , and they hit it fired a shot to each one of them three were down instantly and the remaing two , T'San took his riffle and smacked the borg in the head then again and the borg was down as for the second one Samantha used some tyctic she learned in trining and the borg was on the floor within the second .
Robert:"Lets move it people."
ANd they ran towards the exit , oddly they havent encountered any more borg on their way out soon as they left the building they heard an explosion and the tricoders showed that the dampening field was oout and there were no more traces of the computer core.
Robert:"Thats done , now lets move it and get this info to admiral Magellan. "
And they ran towards the shuttle where they saw 15 borg approaching the shuttle and the security officer and the civilian.
Robert:"Any suggestions?"
Just as he said that his comm badge sounded:
=/\=Capt. Vreenak to cmdr. Aglaticae do you read me?"
=/\=Yes sir lound and clear =/\=
=/\=A borg cube has just entered the system it will be here in 10 minutes , do you think you can be back here by that time =/\=
=/\=We have retrived the data but are encountering llittle difficulties a few borg are blocking the way to the shuttle=/\=
=/\=I understand , see if you can make it back before the borg as we need your piloting skills.=/\=
=/\=Understood , Aglaticae out=/\=
"You heard it people lets get ride of this borg and get back up to our ships."
"Yes sir."
And they jumped on the borg , no one was thinking about phasers and phaser riffles , they were beating the borg with carate , judo , and phasor riffles , all of them at the same time , then Roert ans T'San took out their riffles and shot the reamiaing borg , and befor you knew it the ground was covered with disabled borg drones.
"Ok now lets get back to the shuttle and back to the El Sal "
And they entered the shuttle , Robert took the pilot seat and ploted a course off the planet , everyone was feeling relifed as they had the data required to cure cmdore Loskene and would soon be back on their ships.

I really don't mean to stick my nose into your guys' part of the mission, but are you not supposed to be gathering information on the planet and the boarding party to the cube supposed to be investigating the commodores illness? I was just re-reading the mission briefing on page 3 of the 'in orbit thread' by Magellen and thought I might point it out.

Dear Aral,
as far as I am concerned I understand the mission as follows:
Commodore Loskene was offered to be healed by the Borg on the Planet, ergo they must have the data on species 8472. I also think that exactly this information is the reason for the Borg to enter the system and attempt to retrieve the data.
According to Magellans Post on page 3 of the In orbit thread:
"As you are all aware. This planet is an ex-borg colony. A colony containing research vital to the Borg. Research that is in fact also vital to the continuing good health of Commodore Loskene and the security of the Federation."
...followed by...
"Priority 1 is getting the files on the planet. That mission will be led by Commander Agalacticae he will be accompanied by Lieutenants Felix and Parker from the Victory and the Bajoran colonist Tal Lyra. You will recover the files copy them and destroy the originals, under no circumstances must it fall in to borg hands."
I think we are doing the right thing here on the planet, but please correct me if I have misunderstood my part of the mission.

OFF:
With all due respect Lt. Salvali, don't you think figting off 105 Borg Drones - is a little unrealistic? We are only 5 Star Fleet Officers on the Planet!!?!
And they ran towards the shuttle where they saw 105 borg approaching the shuttle and the security officer and the civilian. And they jumped on the borg , no one was thinking about phasers and phaser riffles , they were beating the borg with carate , judo , and phasor riffles , all of them at the same time , then Roert ans T'San took out their riffles and shot the reamiaing borg , and befor you knew it the ground was covered with disabled borg drones.
