Knowing that at any time his shields are going to collapse and the
hull begin to buckel, Duker turns his ship around and heads for the Interdictor
like a bat out of hell. He reaches the Interdictor and waits at the side
of the big ship for new orders.

*Walks onto the bridge and sees the "Message waiting" light on his
armrest blinking. He taps the button beside it and watches the video that
everyone else had already seen several times. The video reaches the end
where it shows the image of the infested Jadesfire. "Damn, she's hot,"
says Dark Commie. Both Scorpion and TDK look over at the dark figure.*
Does EVERY infested human female arouse your interests? *"Yes." Scorpion
readys his super shotgun. "Should I just put him out of our misery?"* No.
He's part of the SDA. Besides, you never know when he might come in handy.
*"Gee. Thanks for the sentiment. Put me out of YOUR misery, why not put
me out of MY misery. At least do me a favor for a change."* Shut up. Helm,
take off and re-group with the others.

...Darva's fake hyrdalisks and other fake zerg creatures pull back
into the center of the planet with the others, hoping they can pass the
inspection. The small LurkerBand recievers in each of them is very useful,
as it can tune into the zerg psionic commands, and allow the fake zerg
to react properly. Darva waits in his overlord, looking for the proper
moment...

"Comm, open a subspace Channel to Chief Engineer Screwloose at Vulcan."
"Yes Sir. Channel open." Duker: "Screwloose, how is the new Defiant comming?"
Screwloose: "Wer are never going to make the deadline you requested. It
is just too big of a task." Duker: "Damn. How much longer is it going to
take?" Screwloose: "My best guess is at least 2 months." Duker: "Well that
sucks...alright I want you to do something else. Do you have access to
the Vulcan military specs?" Screwloose: "Yes, they allowed me to have full
access to them if I needed to use any of thier recources. Are you thinking
what I think you're thinking?" Duker: "I think so. What kind of battle
ships do they have?" Screwloose: "They just got done deloping a secret
type of battle ship equiped with a cloaking device, and enought weaopn
arrays to satisfy a whole fleet." Duker:" Alright, here is what I want
you to do. You access their computer and..."

With a rapidly growing red light and a deep rumbling vibration,
the tunneling worm breaks into the outer core of Mimas. At several thousand
degrees, the nose of said vehicle will melt through anything, leaving behind
a lava tunnel. The entrance, plugged with ice, will hold atmosphere if
the worm survives to break into the inner core. Almost before it has emerged,
it was under attack. With miles of solid rock seperating the outer from
the inner core, zerg pound on the thick armored hide, dying in droves as
the worm swings blindly left and right, vaporizing the organic bodies with
its white-hot nose. Guided by sonar, it proceeds onwards...

The Zerg fall back, hydralisks, defilers and drones pelting the
worm with acid. Suddenly a new threat is evident.....infested mind worms,
of Chironian stock. Clumping together in boils, the worms unleash a devastating
psi assault on the mind of the woodlouse pilot....

*Skelton #2: "We're coming up on the fleet now, Sir."* Good, get
a channel open to sombody, I want to know exactly what's going on here.
*Dark Commie: "Sir, eh? Awful lot of respect there. You aren't becoming
socially functional on me are you TDK?"* Hell, no! These are machines.
They've been programmed to talk like that. *"Oh? And who was it who did
the programming?"* Well, it wasn't me. *The Skeleton again: "Channel open.
Patching you through to Lord_Woodlouse." Lord_Woodlouse appears on the
screen.* Hello Woodlouse. Can you give me an update on the situation? The
infestation doesn't look that bad from up here.

The Woodlouse, force user that he is.. tries valiantly to resist
the assault... and knows he will not be able to survive. In agony, his
mind shredding, he quickly paws at the emergency medical kit.. and gasses
himself unconcious. The tunneling worm computer, sensing its controller
unconcious, proceeds on autopilot with a pre-programmed contingency. Turning,
it begins to orbit the outer core.. from *inside* Mimas, mowing down Zerg
by the score.
