Stretching the Limits

[Robert "Jackal" Walker]

Walker's Quarters
BC-303 Battle Cruiser Icarus
Outer Edges of Delian Galaxy

Through the window in his quarters, Colonel Robert Walker gazed out as he had countless times on this mission emptily. The area of space they were passing through was known as the Klutonser (translated 'place of destruction') by the surviving inhabitants of the desolate planet of Owwem. On its way to the Ida galaxy, Icarus encountered the civilization (or what remained) and learned of their amazing past. Soon however, the Asgard contacted the battle cruiser with rendezvous coordinates of an Asgard outpost closest to the Delian galaxy. Heading there, little did the expedition members know the hardship, horror, and death to come.

Bear had been part of the Ida Crew for awhile still he didn't really know what they were doing out here. So he decided it was time to ask the XO of the mission what he knew. So he aprocahed Walker's Quarters and knocked on the door and then checked to see it unlocked so he just entered hoping not to catch the Colonel off gurad. "Sir can I ask you a question?" and before he could respond Bear just asked it bear knew if this had been a junior officer or newly enlisted soldier he would get reamed out but being one of the top ranked NCO's he knew he could ask the question straight forward.

Answering his door, Walker saw it was Karl "Bear" Biggio, the expedition's top technical NCO. The E-9's experience made him an ideal candidate for the mission and his volunteering made it that much better. Several times his skills had come into play when others failed, and more than once kept something catastrophic from happening during an engagement.

"Come on in, Bear," the Colonel said and left the door open for the Chief Master Sergeant to follow him inside. Moving further into the room again, Walker grabbed the rolling chair from in front of the small desk and slid it Biggio's way before plopping down on the edge of his own bed. From their current speed and condition, the crew of the Icarus should arrive back within range of the Delta Site's long-range scanners within the week. Long-range communications was still down after their last skirmish with the enemy, and with the Asgard having to leave so quickly the ship would be difficult to identify to the Delta Site. After the extensive upgrades the Asgard employed on the BC-303, its signature would no longer be identified as such class of ship, and without communications the Ida expedition could only hope the Iliad would ask questions before shooting.

"Thank you sir" said Bear saluting his superior officer. Bear sat down at a chair in the cabin. "So Sir do you think these asgard upgrades will be enough to give us an edge against the Olympians and for that matter will the Delta site even be able to recognize us with all of this new tech it might be hard for them to get our sub space transmitter" said Bear giving his concern to Walker "I mean I have been doing some scans here and there and I don't think the asgard gave us the best stuff they have, I mean did you see that O'Neill of theres?" asked Bear remembering his first time on the ship during a weapons test "I mean it was able to get yields of over 900 megatons a shot and our weapons don't match that so what do you think?"
