The scene dissipated in front of him, leaving him in blackness. He knew he was unconscious, but at least he finally felt in control again. Now all he needed to do was wake up...

Phaser fire traded with disruptor fire, the science crew were holding the entry to the makeshift command room rather well, with already one Romulan taken out of the fight.
A disruptor shot hit one of the cadets manning the barricade, he screamed out and fell to the floor. Ensign Becker turned. "You, pick up his gun and man his position, and someone see to him" He had wanted to say more, but the time for words was not now, no, now it was life or death for all of them. Lieutenant, where are you?
A few seconds later the Romulan disruptor fire stopped. Becker didn't hesitate.
"That must be the Lieutenant! Charge!!!"

The two Romulans had taken a few steps back for more cover when they came across the body of Nathanial. Both were unsure how an officer had ended up in the dead end corridor unconscious..behind them!

One of them kicked the body, it stirred a little but still remained unconscious.
"Did you shoot him?"
"Did you shoot him?"
"Don't look at me, I've been watching our front, it was your job to watch our back!"
"So, how did he get here?"
"Do I look like his mother?"
Nathanial heard words in the distance, he knew he should be where those voices were, and he tried to concentrate on them as much as he could.
"Fine! Just shoot him and be done with it"
"But..." Before the Romulan could finish his counter statement he was hit in the back by a phaser shot.
Nathanial heard phaser fire, and shouting.
The Romulan fell face first on top of Nathanial. Nathanial felt the full force of the body landing on him, and the shock was the final bridge in bringing him back to the conscious world. His eye's opened.
The last remaining Romulan turned and began to fire. Phaser and disruptor's went off, red and green shots flying down the corridor, but the Romulan quickly overwhelmed and taken down.
Ensign Becker and three others rounded the corner and were greeted by the sight of Nathanial standing up over one of the fallen bodies, phaser in hand.
"Sir! Corridor secured!" Becker reported.
Nathanial's thoughts and memories flooded back to him, he quickly assessed the situation and ordered "Ensign, good work, Secure the rest of Deck A."
"Roger sir" Becker finished with a salute as he and the other cadets with him headed out.
Nathanial headed quickly back to the command room.

"Lieutenant! We have a problem, we have been locked out of the main computer sir."
Nathanial ran his left hand though his hair, the bridge must have been breached for a computer lockout. "Garben any luck with the comm system?"

"I had a comm signal being routed though some of the sensor pod arrays, but with the computer lockout, we've lost it again"
"Ok, grab a Class VI probe, see what you can do to get around that, meanwhile, you and you" He said pointing to two of his science crew "Grab a Class II probe and interface it to give us some internal scans!"
