Editing Battle of Beta Seranis III (section)

==(USS Hades - Phlegathon Bridge - ASEC Ensign Baylon Trinin  - 1817)==
 
Baylon listened intently to as much of the conversations and reports flooding into the bridge as he could. The damage was extensive and with an intruder on-board as well, could be getting worse before it got any better.
 
He had previously dismissed Agent Moto from his station on the bridge to handle the threat posed by the intruders, and from what Baylon could surmise, they had not made much headway due to the extensive damage on deck four.
 
Travis had ordered Maraht to assist Agent Moto with the ship's internal sensors. Baylon knew he should be the one handling the security problem. He was after all the ASEC on the Hades. It was only his posting as the Phlegathon's First Officer and Tactical Officer that had forced him to stay on the bridge and let things develop without his direct intervention.
 
"Operations I'm showing a power flux to the dorsal phaser array, can you do anything about that?"
 
"Working on the problem now, Sir" The operations officer replied and Baylon turned his attention back to the external situation. 
 
The ship rocked again as another volley of enemy fire rattled the decks of the Phlegathon. Baylon returned fire, stabbing his fingers at the enemy ships, as if playing a piano. 
 
"I have crewman bio signs disappearing off my scans without a commbadge telltale signal remaining. Lt Keswick, it appears that some of our crew members are being abducted." He heard Maraht report.
 
~Now why in the world would they abduct his shipmates? For intelligence gathering? Trophies...slaves?~
 
The last thought made his stomach turn somersaults. What if they managed to get aboard the Acheron and capture Ranae? What then?
 
~Then I'll have to hunt them all down until I find her and if they've harmed one hair....~
 
His thoughts snapped back to the last snippet of a request from Maraht.
 
"...Is it possible for me to leave and go to Deck 5 to help Agent Moto, sir? These people must be stopped."
 
"Permission granted Mister Maraht." he replied as Travis gave a series of orders to the helmsman. "Just be careful and follow Agent Moto's orders."
 
Maraht didn't hesitate, instead he just rumbled to the turbolift and disappeared into the bowels of the ship to deal with some of the invaders. For a brief moment Trinin was jealous of his silicon friend, until he fired another barrage of torpedoes into the side of one of the enemy vessels. it was then that he realized that he could hurt these beings with far greater efficiency at his console then he ever could face to face.
