With the Borg advance slowed, several things began to occur almost simultaneously.

Salid ordered [[Sanok]] and [[Ben Soma]] to conduct a detailed re-con of the lower decks in the hopes of determining the deployment, strength and activities of the [[Borg Drone]]s operating in that area. Initial operational movements were successful, but Soma and sanok were separated during an attack by the Borg. As such, Soma ended up encountering [[Rank|Lieutenant]] [[Jessica Signos]] who had been ordered to capture a Living [[Borg Drone]]. Soma aided Signos and they captured an [[assimilation|assimilated]] [[Eian O'Neill]] and conveyed him to sickbay after separating him from the collective. Eian was injured in a conduit explosion initiated by Signos, which facilitated in the ease of his capture. 

Soma was ordered to aid [[Rank|Commander]] [[Jennifer Caskie]] when they reached Sickbay. 

While Sanok continued to attempt to escape the lower decks and report back to [[Rank|Captain]] [[Ahmed Ibn Salid|Salid]]. Eventually Sanok reached Soma's position and was also commandeered by commander caskie.

Independently [[Rank|lieutenant]] [[Thomas Jackson]], second officer of the [[USS Rosenante]], led an assault to seize the Rosenante's CommSuite after receiving intelligence from [[Mike Rosenbauer]] on the area.  He recruited several officers including, [[Henry Jacobs]], [[Eva Saint Jean]], [[T'Vyr]], [[Chance Raschen]], [[Detron Trei]] and [[Nickolas Romanoff]] to aid him in the attack. The team was able to eliminate the [[Borg]] working in the area, and retake the critical subspace equipment without destroying or damaging it. Later marine officers wearing [[EVO/C]] Armor reinforced the CommSuite and helped to prevent a Borg assault on the compartment.

Jacobs and Romanoff worked to restore ship-wide communications, and their hard work was rewarded with success. As a result of this development, Captain Salid and other officers were able to begin to truly organize their defense and to plan operational assaults to strike at key areas on the two vessels.

Salid led a squad of [[EVO/C]] equipped [[Starfleet Marine Corps|Starfleet Marines]] to clear out the Main Engineering area of the [[USS Rosenante]]. This action allowed [[Rank|lieutenant]] [[Steven Wade Matrix]] to begin limited repairs to the ship's critical systems.
