Admiral Eva Larson summoned Commander Modi, her XO, Commander air groups and department heads to her office.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cThank you for coming. We will launch a new strategy in one hour. Instead of trying to avoid the Cylon\u2019s we are going to try to disrupt them instead. We will pick smaller, more difficult jump points. That will have us needing to react more quickly when we combat jump. I want recon on at least 3 possible jump points that meet this criteria.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cMaintenance will be difficult. We will go to 4 shifts of pilots. Break out your emergency spare parts and tooling. We are putting everything on the board. Playing for keeps. As Admiral Adama used to say, we are rolling the hard six.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cWe intend to be the bull in the china shop here. We WANT to make noise. We want to cause chaos.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cThe more the merrier,\u201d XO Jacobs said.<\/span><\/p>

Then the group, which numbered more than 20, shouted enthusiastically: \u201cSo Say we all\u201d.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cThis is the XO of the battlestar Mercury. Land the cap. Begin Jump Prep!\u201d Major Jacobs ordered, in an enthusiastic voice.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cSublight!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cCheck!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cFTL NAV!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cCheck. Synced with Solaria!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cJump Keys!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cJump keys Inserted!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cFTL drive status!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cSpooled. Ready to jump!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cCommence Combat Jump! Jump the fleet!\u201d Admiral Lawson ordered.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cFlight Decks!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cReady for the combat jump. Cap is secure!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cJump complete,\u201d announced the young Ensign monitoring the display. \u201cLess activity than the last reconnaissance bird reported.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Admiral Lawson and Major Jacobs exchanged glances.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cIf they jumped away, this could be a critical rest and repair station,\u201d Jacobs speculated.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cLaunch enhanced cap,\u201d ordered Larson. \u201cWe aren\u2019t looking for a rest stop, we are spoiling for a fight.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cContact Draedis has 1 heavy 4 smaller contacts.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cWe have signals intelligence showing the Cylons are using ftl comms. Calling in reinforcements!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cLaunch all vipers.\u201d the Admiral ordered.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cOrder the air wing to form up tight with the battlestars. They can jump on the first inbound missile salvo and then pounce on the first wave of raiders.\u201d ordered Admiral Lawson.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cMore contacts at long range.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cGun crews have a firing solution.\u201d said the XO.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cWeapons free,\u201d Admiral Lawson replied.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cEngage countermeasures!\u201d Admiral Lawson ordered.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cXO Mercury to all players. We have an inbound gunship CBDR, accelerating. Air wing engage!\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cFrakking gunship is making a run at us,\u201d Major Jacobs complained.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cCrash turn to starboard, both ships. Let\u2019s rise as we turn and see how he likes Mercury class battlestar artillery. Start the turn in offensive posture, then we dial it back to defensive when he tries to concentrate his guns.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cSignal the Solaria. Hard to port.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cAnother first war base star just jumped in close, we already have a firing solution.\u201d Major King pointed to the dradis screen.<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

\u201cAnticipate the orders from the flag ship, salvo mode this time,\u201d Commander Modi ordered. \u201cThat was stupid set of jump coordinates for a fleet that is supposedly sending battle telemetry via ftl comms.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cHelm, roll the ship, improve our firing angle on that Talon,\u201d Commander Modi ordered. She anticipated the small, agile craft\u2019s attempt to evade the firing solution.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cThat\u2019s a mission kill!\u201d shouted someone in CIC.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cScratch another classic first war base ship!\u201d shouted an excited pilot on wireless.<\/span><\/p>

New Helios: Present day fleet exercise:<\/span><\/p>

Vice Admiral Steven Evans sat impatiently in the Executive Officers quarters on the Battlestar Athena. His body ached with the wear and tear of 75 years since birth. He was tired, and felt every one of those years.<\/span><\/p>

The uniform felt like it was irritating his skin. A stretch and a yawn made him feel all 57 of his years of service in the Colonial fleet.<\/span><\/p>

He wondered what he was doing here. As long as he and his wife Amelia Evans drew breath, they would draw pay and have their rank. It had been made crystal clear to him that decades of political infighting for the budget had ended his usefulness to the fleet.<\/span><\/p>

The hearing about the fate of the battlestar Mercury and task force Mercury had gone about as well as he had predicted. Several fiscally conservative members of the quorum and the peoples council had bitched about the amount of fuel that had been burned to take the Athena out on this mission.<\/span><\/p>

Thirty nine, nearly forty years had passed without direct confrontation with the Cylons. The outcome of the \u201cGalactica war\u201d had been discovered. As far as Evans knew, no humanoid Cylons had ever been encountered.<\/span><\/p>

Nobody knew where the second earth was, and nobody was particularly interested in finding a single base star, exploring the cosmos.<\/span><\/p>

Equally obvious, was that there were a lot of classic, first war toasters out there, exploring the galaxy. The budget for space exploration had been gutted and cut to the bone several times. The political aspirations of many mid-grade Colonial Fleet officers had been sacrificed in this long running battle.<\/span><\/p>

The door to the cabin opened. Two women entered the quarters. Admiral Evans took note of the marine guards that were posted outside the room.<\/span><\/p>

Evans was taken aback, when he recognized, Corey Brooks, former president of the New Helios Colonies, and his successor, Vice Admiral Samantha Wilson walked in.<\/span><\/p>

Though it meant some pain, a former Colonial president rated him getting out of his seat.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cAs you were,\u201d Admiral Wilson ordered, gently placing a paper folder and a tablet computer on the desk.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cWhat is this?\u201d Evans asked with an incredulous expression on his face. \u201cI had an appointment with my son on leave and a boat on Lake Caprica.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cYou don\u2019t think you get to drop a shit-sandwich in my lap and spend the rest of your days, napping and sipping beer, did you?\u201d Admiral Wilson asked. He had always found it impossible to read his former subordinates’ thoughts.<\/span><\/p>

Corey Brook\u2019s presence in the room was very interesting. After two five year terms as president of New Helios, her attempt at a third term was defeated by a landslide.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Too many decisions in too many areas had doomed her political career.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cOne of the functions of former presidents,\u201d Brooks began. \u201cIs to deal with uncomfortable situations. Situations that might paralyze the current government. Situations that might cause such instability, it might set off a civil war.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cOpen the first paper folder,\u201d Wilson ordered.<\/span><\/p>

Admiral Evans read carefully. It read like a diplomatic complaint. It complained about territorial incursions and lost property. The dates were all during the past two weeks. \u201cWhat the Frak is this?\u201d<\/span><\/p>

He put the folder on the table. In it was a time and date stamped digital photo of the Battlestar Mercury.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

\u201cThis is a complaint from the ambassador of the Cylon, a humanoid model six for property damage done to her colony by forces from the Battlestar Mercury.\u201d Brooks explained.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cAmbassador of what?\u201d Evans asked.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cTwelve years after we settled New Helios, a small transport ship crewed with three models of Cylon, showed up and hailed our patrol. They explained that they were trapped by the Cylon civil war, and they wanted to live their lives in peace with the humans of New Helios,\u201d Brooks explained.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cI decided it was better to admit them quietly, then to leave them on the outside, with knowledge of operation magic trick and where we were.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cBut you weren\u2019t president,\u201d Evans objected.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cPresident Burke agreed that this should be handled quietly, by me.\u201d Brooks continued. \u201cThe problem was that these were not the only toasters in the wild. All six surviving models made peace with each other and established a Colony at star system M172.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cThat is right near our Tylium mine,\u201d Admiral Evans said.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cExactly,\u201d Admiral Wilson. \u201cThey established a few outposts, and defended themselves with first war centurions. There were encounters and even a skirmish at the second Tylium mine.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cWhen did you find out about this secret Admiral Wilson?\u201d Evans asked.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cThe day you left to document the fate of the Mercury,\u201d answered the Admiral.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cThe point here is that in order to avoid another war, there was a peace treaty between the Cylons and New Helios. These Cylons were not able to procreate. We figured the problem would take care of itself over the next few decades.\u201d Corey Brooks motioned to the second file.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cIn order to preserve the knowledge of humankind, Doctor Fred Manson at the University of New Tauron, took it upon himself to try and reconstruct Cylon resurrection technology. He hoped it would lead to immortality for all humans if it could be used to \u2018download\u2019 at the end of their natural lives.\u201d Brooks folded her hands and gave Admiral Evan\u2019s the opportunity to absorb the information.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cDoctor Manson ran into difficulties, including a group of centurions and elderly Cylon model ones who were very interested in this technology. Doctor Manson has disappeared, he failed to return from a research expedition three years ago.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cThis is a frakking disaster,\u201d Evans frowned.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cThe first war toasters were more than content to live quietly and manufacture spare parts to keep their line going. Until two and a half weeks ago.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cWhat happened then?\u201d Evans asked, still wanting to pinch himself, in case he was dreaming.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cThe battlestar Mercury happened then. Instead of dying in a black hole, she popped into a system three hundred thousand light years away. She began to seize supplies and head for home.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cLet me guess,\u201d Evans shook his head. \u201cShe is storming through space headed in this general direction. Of course she is.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cWe need task Force Mercury to disappear. They need to get destroyed or head away from here. We have managed to live in peace with the Cylons for nearly 3 decades here,\u201d Brooks said.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cSo my mission is to find her and tell her to die, or run away?\u201d Evans sounded angry.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cYou could state things a little more delicately.\u201d Admiral Wilson warned with an angry look.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cYou damned well know, I am not taking that frakking mission.\u00a0 Admiral Eva Lawson is a hero who cooked up the crazy scheme that has us with what, like 24 million colonists in it. She led the military that saved humanity.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Corey Brooks sighed, her own physical condition revealed by aches, gray hair and sagging skin. \u201cWe need her to take another fall for the Colonies.\u201d Brooks urged.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cWill the Cylons listen to reason? If a cease fire is declared, we can give task force Mercury an escort home. That is a better plan.\u201d<\/span><\/p>

Admiral Wilson looked at the pair of elderly people. They looked like they might have a wrestling match right there in these quarters.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cIf you can convince Lawson, or whoever is running that fleet to stop blowing up toasters three times a day, we might be able to talk about something.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

\u201cThe other thing you will need to do is find the Cylon resurrection laboratory that Doctor Manson established and shut the project down. If the Cylons get resurrection technology they might just want to start building an empire.\u201d Corey Brooks finished. She folded her arthritic hands into a tent.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cSo basically, my mission orders are to screw Yevka Lawson, and then if I live long enough destroy the only chance Cylons have for a future. Does that sum it up?\u201d<\/span><\/p>

\u201cYour task force consists of two Valkyrie class battlestars and a couple of support ships. Good hunting Admiral Evans. Just not too much hunting if you don\u2019t mind.\u201d Admiral Wilson nodded.<\/span><\/p>
