Cara overhears the Captain making a transmission to the Atlantia:
> "BS-53 Atlantia, this is raptor Captain, docking now with personnel in tow. Raptor Captain out."<
Cara find herself relieved to almost be relieved.

The Flaming Wolves take to the air and being their CAP Rotation. Lt. Rose leads with Bluebird flying her wing. <Where the hell is StarScream? He better get his butt out here or he's going on report.> Rose thinks as she makes the first bend and turns the Cobra to the right and starts down the backside of the ship. She looks out her side window and sees Bluebird right where she's supposed to be. Rose smiles and settles back hoping for a quiet night. *Well, Bluebird, you're doing fine so far. Let's see what's on the backside of this ship. Making a right hand turn then going down the backside of the 53* Rose calls back to her over the com system in her helmet.

> Wow. What a beauty... nothing like the sound of thrusters. So this is home.<
Cara radio's back to Rose:"Roger, maneuvering aft."

The Cobra moves down the back side of the 53 and Rose looks over space as the darkness is only interrupted by the occasional star that twinkles. She checks her Dradis and it sweeps around quietly. Pressing her mic to Bluebird
*Looks like everything is quiet out here. But keep your guard up, you never know what lurks behind the next turn. Get ready to move back to the other side of the ship. I think I want to try something new here, Ensign. I want you to slow your approach and leave some room between us. I think maybe if you are about 1/3 the length of the ship behind me we can still cover the area but reach out a little further in our Dradis scopes. I will make the turn and speed up just a little.*
Rose pushes the throttle to go a bit faster and pulls away from Bluebird then begins to make the turn around the end of the ship.
*Don't worry, anything looks 'hinky' to you just yell at me and I'll whip around real fast, Bluebird.*

"Ok sure thing."
Cara let's up on the thrusters, keeping an eye on Lt. Rose's turn. She increases the distance between them by about 1/3. Once Cara looses visual on Rose, she begins to re-familiarize herself with the manueverability of the Viper. She makes a soft, long bank in toward the Atlantia, and then an equal bank in the opposite direction. She slows a touch as she rounds the next corner around the Atlantia. A glint of light from the underside of the Atlantia thrusters catches Cara's eye.
>What was that?<
"I've got a visual on a possible foriegn object or possible ship damage near the underside of the Atlantia thrusters. Moving in for a closer look."
Cara reduces thruster speed, and cuts up under the Atlantia's thrusters, and gains a clear flyby visual.
"Okaaaay... looks like we've got space debris. A metal crate of some kind. Any chance we can tow this in? I mean, there might be something useful inside."

Herrod Cavil was as excited as a schoolgirl on her first date. Sitting there in front of him was the largest concentration of Colonial ships he had seen, ever. Having received word from his brother Cavils that he was authorized to attack the human fleet, Herrod wasted no time. Speaking to the cneturions seated in the front of the Heavy Raider, Herrod gave the order.
"Fire your missiles on the Colonial ships dead ahead."
And with that, several nuclear tipped missiles streaked quickly towards the Colonial ships that were being staged near the Fleet Supply Station.

Suddenly, the DRADIS alarms on every ship present at the Fleet Supply Station went active as several nuclear armed missiles streaked towards the anchorage. Before the ships could react, the missiles found their targets.
The Battlecruisers Archer and Magellan were each hit by one missile a piece, causing moderate damage to their Port Pods.
The Gunstars Cadmus and Ceres both were hit by one missile a piece, however the missiles had struck in the stern, directly into the Engineering sections. Both ships exploded into a thousand little pieces.
Pieces from both ships managed to strike the BSS-966 (Fleet Support Ship) Naru, destroying the ship as well.
The remaining missiles struck in the middle of the civilian ships, which had taken up station closer to the Supply Station. Fortunately, only a few of those ships were damaged, the defensive guns of the station having hit the incoming missiles.
The following civilian ships were present. Those designated as so were slightly to moderately damaged:
Delilah-Passenger ship. 28 crew, carries 200 passengers. Registered to Pan-Terran Tours (slight damage to starboard side of ship from shrapnel)
Hector-Passenger ship. 37 crew, carries 180 passengers, small cargo bay. Registered to Colonial Passenger Lines, Inc.
Pericles-Cargo ship. 102 crew. Carries medium cargo, dry bulk goods. Registered to Colonial Transport Services. (moderate damage to cargo bay)
Aphrodite-Luxury passenger Liner. 67 crew, carries 225 passengers. Registered to Cherry Excursions. (slight damage to shuttle landing bay)
Demeter-Agriculture cargo transport ship. 164 crew, carries livestock and containerized cereal grain products (oats, barley, wheat, corn). Registered to Agri-Transporters.
Jeremiah-Cargo ship. 85 crew, carries bulk manufactured goods (steel, processed lumber, etc;) Registered to Colonial Transport Services.
Pan-Colonial 612-Passenger Liner. 103 crew, carries 250 passengers. Registered to Cherry Excursions.
Erin-Maintenance/Repair ship. 89 crew. Capable of servicing all civilian ships for all repair needs. Registered to The Gaffo Corp. (moderate damage to landing/cargo bay)
Australias-Roll-on/Roll-off container ship. 76 crew, transports containers. Registered to Bullethead Transport.
Nirvana-Luxury Excursion/Passenger Liner. 218 crew, carries 450 passengers. Registered to Cherry Excursions.

The Cavil known as Herrod sat there in the Heavy Raider, watching as the missiles streaked towards the Colonial Fleet. Not much amused this Cavil but watching as the missiles found their targets caused a smile to creep across his lips. Aware that the Five Model was watching him, Herrod turned to him.
"Finding something interesting?"
The Five, a model who went by the name Nathan Slade, sat looking out the front of the Heavy Raider.
"Oh, I'm just wondering how you're going to explain this to the Supreme Commander, that's all. I mean, this operation was not authorized."
Herrod made a snarl of a noise, the disgust apparent.
"I'm tired of our Supreme Commander tip-toeing around the Colonials, like we have something to be afraid of. We are way past due in resolving this problem known as humanity. It's time we remind them we are still here. And you let me worry about the Supreme Commander."
"Well, perhaps you should be worrying about those incoming Vipers. It seems our ability to remain undetected by their DRADIS has failed!"
Herrod looked out the front of the Heavy Raider and saw dozens of Colonial Vipers and Raptors heading straight towards them. Before he could give the order to jump, dozens of rounds of armor piercing ammo from the Vipers began to hit the Heavy Raider.
"Centurions! Get us out of here, now!"
At that moment, the engines were hit from behind, essentially knocking the Heavy Raider dead in the water.

"Fleet Supply Station, this is Viper 621, I am inbound and on trek for enemy contact bearing 198 karem 30, over. Heavy Raider dead ahead. Okay boys and girls, let's take this thing down."
Pressing the fire control, Lieutenant Delia Muldoon sent thousands of armor piercing rounds towards the Heavy Raider. At the same moment, the rest of her squadron did the same. Coming up from behind the Heavy Raider, another squadron of Vipers began firing towards the Cylon ship, knocking out the engines.
"TALLYHO! We got the bastard, it's dead in the water. Be careful though, it's still got its weapons."
Delia continued to fire, her rounds tearing into the top of the Heavy Raider. She had managed to knowck out the missile launch tubes but the ships guns were still active. She knew this because at that moment, the Heavy Raider began to return fire, striking two of her birds.
"Jessie! You're hit, get out of the fight and return to the Station. Cal, can you still fly?"
Ensign Cal Mitchell checked his instruments, then replied.
"Roger that Delia, I'm down an enigine but can still fight."
"Squadrons, take out those guns. Let's see if we can capture this one. It'll give those intel types something to do later on."
The Heavy Raider was just as dangerous, possibly more so, sitting there unable to move or jump away. The Viper pilots danced around teh dead ship, slowly taking out her guns one by one, until the ship posed no more of a threat.
"Fleet Supply Station, Viper 621, we are all secure and have one Heay Raider, plus crew, as prize, over."
"Viper 621, be advised. SAR Raptor is inbound your location to attach tow cable. Escort back to Station, Landing Bay Four, over."
"Copy that Station, standing by for SAR Raptor. Advise Marines on the ready when we arrive. There are three toasters, two humanoids on board, over."
"Copy 621, Marines are at the ready. Station out."
Delia continued to fly around the stricken Heavy Raider, ready to fire into the heart of the ship at the first sign of any trickery. She watched as an SAR Raptor approached and positioned itself to hook a tow cable to the enemy vessel. Once hooked, the raptor began the trek back to the Station, the Vipers and other Raptors escorting it, watchful for any additional enemy contacts.

********************JUMP******************* Lexi plunges her hands into the Datastream and uploads all new information from the system and Hybrid. The Hybrid has been uttering jibberish of late which has Lexi a little concerned. She makes the connection to the Hybrid and begins to process some of the jibberish into understandable thoughts. ***the pestilence is near.............flies to the bounty................six waits in limbo..............cavils ready the attack................another six is untrustworthy.............humans must not be trusted...........all this has happened before............all this will happen again............JUMP*** Suddenly the 106 JUMPS at the instruction of the HYBRID as Lexi pulls her hand from the Datastream and falls to the floor gasping for air.

I pick up the Shipwide PA and make an announcement over it. *ALL PILOTS LAUNCH IMMEDIATELY. ENEMY TARGETS. BEWARE GUN BATTERIES* I press some controls and move the bow 28 degrees to the right as instructed. Then the Weapons Officer begins to fire the big guns at the nearest Cylon target. I work on establishing a perimeter for our defense and work at as fast of pace as I can possibly can. I can feel my brow begin to perspire and I am sure I'm pretty shaken but able to function. It's been a long time since we engaged the enemy and there's a lot of the enemy on the Dradis. I watch for our birds to start leaving the ship.

She did that all on her own. It's as if she senses we need to be in this area somehow. Maybe Six is nearby?* Lexi looks at Justice hopefully as they have been searching for Six for a long time now.
