Yeah she would be my favourite out of the 24th century designs I have done. Probably because I am a big fan of Voyager and I see the Jigoku as a combat version of the Intrepid.

Looking good so far. Are the Seraphim's Carrier Strike Group (CSG) and the Federation are two separate factions?

Seraphim's Carrier Strike Group (CSG) is independent from the Federation and hunted by them after
refusing to follow illegal orders to planetary bombard of the defenseless Beta Arians VI
Aggro Colony which is a Colonial Alliance member by the way

Not really it was a those orders were retribution for the terrorist bombing of the Enterprise F

In other words both Fed and the CA are shades of gray

back story part one

WWlogo.png
Space the Final frontier this was the dream that lend the Federation to make peace throughout the galaxy standing firm no matter the opposition and to boldly going were no one had gone before...

But not to last for all dreams no matter how sweet come to it's end


Stardate: 92456.18
Beta Arians VI
Aggro Colony
Located with in the former Cardassian D.M.Z.

Jarred was angry. And he no longer cared whether or not the StarFleet officer saw his anger.

"We work hard out here on the frontier! Building a life. Starting a world. Making things work. We pay our taxes, too. Unlike so many who sit and wait for the Federation to give them everything. And for what? The Orions come and take what they want and then Starfleet shows up a week later and says, 'Sorry. We'll get them next time for sure.' We send people to the Council to speak on our behalf and they get passed around from this bureaucrat to that aide to the other office until they run out of money or they give up and come home. The week after, the Nausicaans land and take all our livestock. Did I mention they shot and killed a seven year old boy because one of the animals wasn't livestock but his pet and he tried to keep it? Oh yeah, before I forget, someone told them Starfleet was enroute. The Nausicaans nearly died from laughter. Bet that didn't make it into the report to Starfleet HQ, did it? You 'Fleeters live a life of ease and comfort and minimal responsibility aboard your ships. Someone else builds them. Someone else pays for them. And you do nothing at all to earn your keep!

Well, it's past time someone else learned from the past as well. Remember when the Federation gave Federation planets, and their citizens, to the Cardassians? To 'keep the peace because war is a bad thing?' How'd that work out for Y'all, 'Fleeter?. Not very well at all as I recall. Y'all ran around like your butts were on fire and your heads were catching. Meanwhile, the Maquis made a stand. Bloodied the Spoonheads' noses too. And for what? So Starfleet could brand them terrorists and criminals! If anyone had been bothered to really listen to what the Maquis were saying, Starfleet might have had enough time to wake up before the war started. Instead, while those on the frontier starved and died, the Federation gave aid to the Cardassians!"

"Mr. Jarred, it wasn't quite like that. You don't underst-"

"Too bloody right, I don't understand, Boy! I don't understand why we ever thought the Federation would ever lift a finger to help us. After all, there's the Klingons and the Romulans to appease as well. Paid for with the taxes you squeeze out of us! Past time someone did something about this, it is. And we're going to. If the Federation cannot help us defend what is ours then it is time to run the Federation off this planet! Here, this is a document, signed by nearly two thirds of the population of Beta Arians VI, declaring ourselves independent of the Federation from this moment forward! From now on, we'll be the ones making the decisions about ourselves. From now on, we'll be the ones deciding who gets what from our hard work! From now on, we'll be free of the leeches and apologists and weak minded who are afraid of their own shadows!"

"Mr. Jarred, that document is why I am here. Secession from the Federation is illegal. I am hearby placing you under arrest for violation of Federation Code Twelve A."

" I don't think so, 'Fleeter. Not today. I'm no longer part of your Federation so your laws no longer apply to me!"

Jarred pulled a comm link from his belt and spoke.

"Mike, Jarred. All done up there?"

"Jarred, this is Mike. The ship is ours. We have three dead and about a dozen wounded."

"D*&m! Who are they?"

"Asa, Janet, and that Bolian guy, Paguili."

"Alright, Mike. Where are the 'Fleeters?"

"Not but about eight or so left, Jarred. They put up a helluva fight when they finally figured out we weren't hauling quadrotriticale up to them. But by the time we had control of Engineering, they just gave up. Same as they always do."

"Okay, Mike bring them back down to the surface and we'll figure out what to do with them and this one later. Can Serena get into the mainframes?"

"Yeah. Says her 'starfish' program bored right through the security protocols and lockouts with nary a hitch. When I said, 'The ship is ours.', I really meant it."

"Mr. Jarred, stop this now. Before it really is too late."

"Already too late, 'Fleeter. Y'all have been eating lotus blossoms while the whole galaxy goes off the rails. We're gonna go do something about it."




Three weeks later....

Major General Kebron office
Star Fighter Command
Olympus Mons Airfield
Mars
Terran System
Sector 001

1600 station time

'So your getting off this rock and back into space Grim. "General Kebron as he lean forward on the desk

"Yes Sir about time ! The Wind swords are packed and ready to move as soon as I have you ok this " Answered the Colonel just after taking a Sip of his coffee as he hands the General a padd

"Knock that Sir stuff off Reaper! And your the one here that should not care about time." Daen Kebron looking back at his friend for 57 years and if he did not know better he would have thought that the Colonel was human and about the age of 38 not the 122 yearold El-Aurian that was setting in a chair at the end of his desk as he sine off orders .

"Roger that call signs it is then Phoenix. So how are the Knights holding up, is Pounce still your XO heard that she was getting her own Squadron? " Grim as he seen the Brikar grin as he heard the name of his old fighter squadron

"Yep she, her husband Captain Carter and the Wildcats are bound for USS Resolution at the end of the month " Kebron as he took a pull of his coffee

"So they gave him a command mmm I wounder if you had anything to do with it." Grim Given his old friend a knowing look

"Yes and no. Well I was not alone ...It helps when you have the backing of the Fleet Admiral pulling for you as you old Commanding officer

" Yes I need to remind the them that their fleet Admiral was once of us a fighter jock... haven't done it in a fortnight or so it always throws the most pompous ones off there game for a day or so"

"Well you have one of those on the Seraphim Rear Admiral Babbcock don't get worried I've post shielding orders up for you. Your to act independently form Fleet command my thoughts on this is that it should save me a mountain of paperwork trying to keep you from being court-marshaled and similar orders work well on the Midway." Kebron Staring in to his cup at the part of that

"The Midway ... It is always hard to lose a Ship" Grim Seeing the old Brikar not look up from his Cup

"No it is always hard to lose a good friend for a second time even if it for all the right reasons " Dean he looks up at a picture on the wall of two pilots and a Maco officer on the Flight deck of the Midway next to a Kd-56 Griffin with a white horse painted on its nose.

"That it is my friend" Grim

""door beep ""

Come" Dean look away for the picture to the door

"Sir Lieutenant General Schukow Shuttle has just arrived at the Maco Docking bay from St. Petersburg Sir he is requesting you join him and mom I mean his wife for dinner." said a cute Orian 1st Lieutenant

"Thank you" Susan tell Marko that I'll be on my way shortly. Dean as he see smile on Grim's Face

Yes Sir I will relay that message Sir Susan returning the smile as she turn and goes.

Door closed

"Well that my que to fly Phoenix as well as yours my friend" Grim gets up for his Seat

Dean as puts his and on Grim shoulder " Remember the five golden rules for fighter pilots?"

"Sure Rule 1: Never leave your fighter, your a pilot "your not a commando that what the Ground pounders are for."Rule 2: Never leave an objective without air cover. Rule 3: Never leave your wingman Rule 4: Never date a General's Daughter unless you sure you can get away with it. Rule 5: See rule one"


"Rule Four just so know you can't this time that is my God daughter and her last name is ... "

"Schukow I know" Girm

"So you were listening and paying attention " Dean

"Don't I always " Grim

"Yep Stay safe and don't do half the stuff I done"Dean

"Your taking the all fun out of life .. after all you done a lot of things" Grim as the though of Phoenix's records

"Don't remind me" Dean as the two part ways

"Roger that Sir " Grim as he enters a lift heading to the Flight line,

-Seconds later-

the Lift opens on the tar-mack the seen is one of organized chaos with Military logistics workers loading transporter pallets laded with ordnance onto transport bees bearing the USS Seraphim's markers as line crews scrambled to get there own gear ready to go.

It all came to a sudden halt as a young Airman saw the Colonel step off the lift calling " Attention Wing Commander on deck !"

"As you were" Grim as he thought I have to give my compliments to Captain Braxton for the assist

Just then one of Master Sergeant Kyle " Spanner " Janson''s tech sergeant walks up coming to attention holding out a pad " Sir! 1st Lt. Whiskers and Spanner left orders to report to you that they have left with the first loads to the ship as well as the report on the move so far Sir1"

"At ease Son your given me a back ache just looking at you... 62% not bad were ahead of schedule when did the Seraphim's worker bees start coming down to help us " Grim looking over the pad

"Not long after Whiskers and Spanner got up there"tech sergeant as he goes to the At ease poster

"So they lit a fire under them" Grim knowing all to well what more than likely went down up there and with that in mind he be more than willing to bet it was more so Spanner then Whiskers

"I be up in my office if you need me" Grim has he headed deep into the hanger

Roger that Sir

Grim open the door to his now empty office well should have been since he already packed up the only thing that remained was his main pad the he left on the desks there was not any reason to take it along up to the old Firebird's office ,that and it would keep him away from the blasted paperwork that seems to regenerate faster than a Borg cube and just as unpleasant in his mind. but the office just off the briefing room, So it was on the way it as he thought to himself "I might as well pick the blasted thing up"

But the Office was not as empty as he left it there were new crates being unpacked by the only one person he really did not want to see on this base who happen to be his replacement on this rock of a world that being Colonel McLaughlin.

" Reaper you left your padd on my desk in my office " Colonel "Wolfhound" McLaughlin as he tapped his fingers on the pad in question

"Not really Wolfhound it's still mine until I get off this rock of a world and back into space" Grim in response in a cool demeanor at hearing and reading the body language of a pompous excuse for a Colonel

"That you are taking your inferior fighters up to the USS Seraphim of all ships a sick joke one would think that command would have had the good sense to want the best on her" McLaughlin as he all tossed the padd at Grim

"And that would be? Command knows what it's doing and it did " Grim as he catches the Padd

"Lancers they know very well they are out match your Aeons stat for stat Reaper " Colonel McLaughlin a bit agitated at that last part

"Not all stats.." Grim

"Name one go on "Wolfhound as he falls into Reaper's old seat

" McLaughlin I'll give you In all honesty the Lancer Class Fighter have a edge at long ranges they can reach out and touch you at greater distances than the Aeon fighters can. But on the other side of the coin, once the Lancer and the Aeon get into the knife fight, the Aeon is a much more nimble fighter. Also depends of the stick actuator in the cockpit. If the pilot does not know how to fly his aircraft to the full extent to his flight envelope, he will suck in either jet and it can not be learn in Simulators... Remember that for all the conjecture on stat for the Lancer is not yet a reality just yet you're Raiders are still just are flying sims of them and the last time I checked wolfhound you're still flying the KD-56 I'm not knocking the KD-56 great fighter but a little past it's prime" Grim looking McLaughlin squarely in the eye

"Don't get comfortable on the USS Seraphim Reaper you may not be there long... " McLaughlin before being interrupted

"Like I said command knows what in hell they'r doing because they got the best for the job and you know what ? that is why you're stuck here at my old desk Wolfhound enjoy it you're going to be there for a long long long long while" Grim as turns leaving a fuming Wolfhound at the first long

Captain's Ready room
Seraphim NCC-91000
Utopia Planitia Fleet Yards
Terran System
Sector 001

1636 station time

The Captain and the XO are swamped padds with transfers , request and you name it are stacked high on the desk.

"What is the E.T.A. for the Air wing to arrive Carbaugh ? " Captain Adrian Braxton newly appointed Captain of the Seraphim staring up from a pile of padds that seem to never end. One would thought him to be Vulcan or even half Vulcan at a passing glance but it wasn't he was half human but also half Romulan ,this was from his mother having defected to the Federation two years before his birth.

"Sir they are inbound well their support crew is But ..." Commander Joshua Carbaugh

But what Commander ?

They have drafted most of the Shuttle crews as well as the worker bees and every enlisted crew man on the hanger deck for that matter to help with the load up their equipment containers

Did they now ?

It seems that the Wind sword's Master Sergeant take's his new roll as Deck Chief quite serious. upon arrival he inform our enlisted crewmen that it his flight deck now and how did he put it now oh yes ""I Will Not stand Sorry layabout standing around on my deck! That means you fleeters ! There is work to be done and if you have any wining to do ...find the nearest airlock and be useful and throw your worthless fleeter hides out of it ! I have work that needs done and no time for your games" You know he may be a force to recon with.. that man has one of their own 1st Lieutenant pressed in to service" talk about motivational speaking the Commander trying his best to keep a straight face.

The fleet admiral warned me about that. Did you know that he was one of them

them ? you mean ....

Yes a Fighter pilot

What was his warning

The ship may be mine but the the flight deck is theirs ... Josh did you look at their orders

No why ?

Have a look line three section a line 3

"" To act independently form Fleet command as it own unit with attachment to the Seraphim NCC-91000 post noted undersigned by Fleet Admiral Maxwell Syf Starfleet command & Major General Kebron Star Fighter Command "" Oh boy that not going to sit well with Rear Admiral prick I mean Babbcock

"Careful commander he my be one of the highest order but respect the rank if not the man I think it why that little addendum is in their orders." Captain Adrian Braxton as he took back the padd from his XO knowing the Commander was right Rear Admiral Babbcock was a pain in the arse like no other and Rear Admiral hated Braxton just because who his mother was.

"I mean Lucky them "Carbaugh as he pick up another padd with medical staff transfers

1730 PST

Fleet Admiral Maxwell Syf and Rear Admiral Mike Babbcock talking at the Fleet Admirals desk

What would you have me do Mike? They are just scared and feed up civilians ... Fleet Admiral Maxwell Syf has he gets up form his desk to get a cup of sweet tea from the replicator. knowing to well the Rear Admiral was going to tell him anyway he did not really like the man but he was well connected in the counsel in fact it was the only way he got his current posting.

Place their colony under marshal law with a the MACO's Max . Then arrest and replace their secessionist local government with a military governor. Rear Admiral Mike Babbcock

Sweet tea... Then what are you going to do about the insurgents? Maxwell as he takes his glass and heads back to his seat and a sip of his sweet tea

Syf though to himself " The man is just a talking head for the war hawks in the counsel"

What insurgents are you talking about Max ?

The ones that will rise directly from your actions Mike or did you not run that plan of your past the initial take over or did you really just assume that they lay down... History teaches that is never the case.

So your just going to let them have the ships they taking ?

No. We will retake or disable the ships and we will arrest the ones that we find on them.

And what of the colony?

Nothing our best hope to resolve that is the up coming talks that The President has brokered at Starbase Sumter

Great you're going to leave it up to that idiot.

It is his to dealing with resource distribution issues which is one of the main causes of out current state of affairs . The last time I read the Articles of the Federation that was his right. Not ours. Ours is to defend the Articles and the people of the Federation. Mite want to remember that Rear Admiral

Door beep

Enter

The Door opens to a Rear Admiral Juras Tahn a Joined Trill

Max why did you place me in the Seraphim's Carrier Group with Babbcock of all people you know I can't stand the.. Juras says out loud just before he see Babbcock seating at the desk

Syf was starting to rethink his open door policy for his office

"Nice to see you to Juras " Babbcock seeing the blasted Trill that he originally came up to see about trying to convince Syf to remove from the Carrier Strike Group

Balance ! Until I can get Admiral Riker recalled and back by the end of the month to take over the strike Carrier Group both of you are political concessions I had to make to get the budget pasted through the Counsel

So who has command Tahn and Babbcock ask at the same time

Me! the Carrier Group is not to be deployed out of Sector 001 until I get back form the Starbase Sumter with The President that is a direct order

So you not going to show off the Seraphim ? Babbcock

Why would he want to radial sabers at a peace talk daf..? Juras looking at Babbcock knowing that would be what Babbcock would do if not allot more

I'm not. I'm going to take the one ship both side can respect by name alone ... The Enterprise . It is late now and my dinner is waiting on me in other words Dismissed gentlemen! the Fleet Admiral getting up out of his chair

Ward room
Starbase Sumter
Alpha Trianguli A binary star system
2.6 light-years outside the former Cardassian D.M.Z.

"I want to thank you Admiral for letting us use this room" India Fredericks of Fed net news as she looked over the room, that has a great view into the Starbase's bay with the Enterprise F docked as it focal point.

"Anytime Mrs. Fredericks , after all these talks are very important and having you and your network here will only help get the word out to what were doing here and maybe clear up all the misinformation that is fly around out there" Admiral Harry Kim Commanding officer of Starbase Sumter

"It's Ms. and Hopefully that's is my job after all Admiral" Fredericks turning to look back at Admiral Harry Kim

Sorry Ms.Fredericks

You can make it up to me

How

I have Ambassador Arron Remick of Beta Arians VI booked for tomorrow tonight's broadcast I could use a counterpoint

Beta Arians VI that is one of the Secessionist aggro colonies

Yes it is

I would but there is no time I would have to get permission from the federation's public relations Minister...

Kat has all ready sine off on it .. I mean Minister Clinch, She said that you would be up to the task given that you've had first hand dealing with all of this for over four years now since your promotion and stationing here and before you served as Captain of the USS Rhode Island for four years and most of that was in this around this sector

You seem to have me at a disadvantage knowing my service record Ms.Fredericks

Call me India well I did have help Fleet Admiral Maxwell Syf did pass it along

Well in that case I guess I don't really have a choice India do I now

yes you do Harry

How so ?

"Well you can choose were we have dinner tonight Harry "India giveing the Admiral a thousand watt smile

Syf or Clinch's Ideal

Both
