"Jake, I'm ordering you to go with the Captain, get to an escape pod and launch it. Don't let her do any heroics like going down with the ship. We need her leadership... wherever we end up." She looks at the console, then at both of them.
"Everyone except us and a pod on deck 5 have left. I'm going to deck five... good luck. It was an honor and a pleasure serving with both of you."
With that, she leaves the bridge. She has to crawl down the turbolift shaft to get to deck 2, then she gets a working turbolift to deck 5. She runs down the smoky corridor until she sees Thomas waiting for her in the open escape pod, holding the girls. One of them, probably the fussy Tahna, was screaming. She wraps a piece of cloth around her hand and takes Tahna and Kes so Thomas will have his arms free for the controls. "Once we launch, it will take two minutes to get out of the blast zone. So, we have..." The computer announces 5 minutes to self destruct. "...three minutes before we have to launch. I didn't see anyone coming, but where is Kestrin, I would have thought he would be meeting us?"

:Kestrin made his way through the smoking and fiery hallways to the escape pod section of deck five. Hea could hear Thomas and Kyah's voices as he approached.::
I'm here! ::He said, as he made his way to the pod:: And not a minute too soon it looks like. We'd better get out of here this is cutting it close.
::He got into the pod, making sure the babies were properly secured for the launch.::

::She sees Kestrin.:: "You did make it just in time. Let's get out of here! We have 3 minutes to clear the blast zone." ::She anxiously tries to calm Tahna's crying fit. She has both girls in her arms and safe for launch. She will let Kestrin and Thomas get them out of there.::

:Jake would move with the captain to the escape pod as he opens it. "Lets go Captain Kaz." :He would get in and wait for the Captain to get in also.:

::kasia looks around her beloved ship as she sees Kyah go of. She prayed to the Trill ancient gods that everyone would make it out alive. She was brought back to reality as she hears Jake call for her:: "I'm coming" She then wipped away a hair from her face, thinking of all of her things in her room...they could be replaced...at least most of them could. She closes the hatch as one of the last officers gets in with her and Jake.:: "Launch this thing Jake and lets get out of here" ::she then sends a subspace message on all starfleet channels calling for help. The klingon ships around her had been been destroyed as well.::

Thomas would get into the pod once everyone are in there and closed the door behind him. He then would take the controls and punched a few keys.
"Everyone, hold onto your seats.", he would say to them. He looked over to see how fusy Tahna was and wished he could help calm her down. Also noticed of how calm Kes was during the flight of the escape pods.

"Ok everyone hang on tight." :With that Jake closes the escape pod and launches it off into space.: "Oh i forgot to mention cause of all we had i did see a Message from Admiral Malc. He said the Uss Optimus is on its way to our location." :The escape pod would float away from the ship as Jake sits there he places a hand on the Captains Hand.: "She was a fine ship Captain and you commanded her well."

::She manages to get herself strapped in and she keeps a tight hold on Kes and Tahna. She was on the verge of tears to see that their home was about to get destroyed. They still had to escape, though... from the doomed ship and from the enemy vessels that had overwhelmed them. There would be time for tears later. She had seen the engineering console just before she had left the bridge... the ship was going down no matter what, but the self destruct just made it faster. She had managed to download the database of the Tahoe's records and files onto a tricorder. Tahna was still sobbing into her right shoulder. Kes, in her left arm, was starting to fuss, too. Both of them were terrified; the smoky corridors, the fact that Kyah was upset, and the rush and change of location were too much for month old babies.::
"Thomas, Kestrin... get us out of here... we're the last pod.... and the last people to escape!" ::She coughs, her throat and lungs stinging from running through the smoke and from using a raised, frantic voice.::

::Seeing the time factor, and the fact that they were secure in the pod, for the most part, Kestrin hit the main switch and launched the escape pod.::
::The Pod shook for a moment and things began to steady again. Kestrin Went to check on Kyah's hand. he opened up his medkit and stooped the bleeding, then went over the hand with a regenerator. Next he quickly pulled out a small over the mouth and nose unit and put it on Kyah, to help stabilize her breathing.::
Your hand will heal up and a just little bit of polytriox did the trick for your lungs and the smoke inhalation. So we're off the ship. What happens now?

::She lets Kestrin fix her hand and she is breathing better after a few moments of the tri-ox. She takes off the mask to talk, still trying to rock Tahna and Kes as they complain about the arrangements they were in now.:; Thanks Kestrin. I guess we just sit tight and wait for rescue... the Optimus is on the way, they recieved our distress call.
::She looks out the window of the pod. The invader ships were leaving the pods alone, but still baragging the Tahoe. Kyah is getting worried by the fact that the girls won't calm down. Even the calm Kes was being very fussy.:: Kestrin, what's wrong with the girls? They aren't calming down... are they hurt or something? ::Her voice is anxious as she checks them both for injuries. Their daipers needed to be changed, but even Tahna wasn't so vocal over a mere messy diaper.::

Thomas was already tapping on the console to launch the pod when Kestren suddenly took over the controls from him when he was already on them and had the pod launched. He meant to tell him that he already launched the pod, but his mind gotten distracted for a moment when he was checking on Tahna and Kes.
"I can help check on them.", he would say to them both. He looked over at Kyah. "Feeling in better?", he asked her as he reached over at Kes with his pinky finger to see if she would take hold of his finger. He would try to help calm Tayha and Kes.
( Sorry, Kestrin.. I should have been more clearer in my last post that I have already launched the pod. My bad. ::smiles:: )

Better? Our home is destroyed... I don't feel better... ::She starts crying herself as she hands Kes to Thomas. She finds the diaper bag and takes out a fresh diaper and brushes away her tears, then changes Tahna's messy diaper, hoping that will help her stop crying. Then she leans back against the bulkhead, rocking Tahna and closing her eyes, hoping for her to calm down. Gradually, she does stop crying, but her whimpers continue, as a warning that she doesn't want to be disturbed again.:: By the way, keep your commbadges on... the note from the Optimus says they will be locking onto commbadge signals. Keep Kes in your arms, querido. ::She glances at Thomas.::

Thomas would take hold of Kes and would craddle her in his arms. He felt bad when Kyah started to cry and would place his arm around Kyah after she finished changing Tahna's diaper. Cradling Kes in his arm as he held Kyah close to her and gave her nod about keeping his commbadge on.
"We will be able to find a new home, amor, you will see.", he would say to her. He gave her a comforting kiss.
He wanted to let her know that he is always there for her and that he will always be there to comfort her and their daughters

::Kestrin took out his medical tricorder and scaned the two babies. He looked up::
They appear to be alright, Kyah. I'm hoping it's just all the excitement has them a little nervous. ::He felt their foreheads and check their glands and temperature::
