Athena walked toward the bridge sensing the anticipation from those around her. She stretched her senses as she had while on Viktor's ship and Mumbled more to herself than anyone around her, "Here but not... there's something going on." She didn't even noticed the curious look given a tactical crew member as he overheard her.
The red klaxons began blinking and Athena quickened her steps and lengthened her stride. It was only a couple of minutes before the bridge door hissed open in front of her and she surveyed the nerve center of the action at the moment.

Athena walked quickly to the open XO station and took a quick look as to what was going on now.
"Reese, more power to shields and weapons. We need to hit them hard and fast to clear a pathway to the planet." Rojac called.
Jade responded in the background as Athena focused her attention on the viewscreen and her senses outward toward the enemy. Orders were issued to Anya and others reported in from the transporter room.
"It the same," Athena whispered almost to herself.
"I'm getting distorted reading around the planet sir. Almost like some device is trying to block our sensors. Large amounts of antiprotons are being detected in the vicinity."
"I've seen this before," the Task Group commander said. Voices faded in and out in the background as Athena focused her attention seemingly one the viewscreen.
"There's 3 and... surface troops," Athena thought aloud. She sat and braced herself in the XO seat and concentrated. "Sensing deception," Athena finally said in a normal tone, but the Captain was already calling for evasive maneuvers.
"Firing aft turrets!" Tactical shouted.
"I'm going to need more time before I can effectively counter the anti-shield beam." Jade said quickly.
"I'm going to need more time before I can effectively counter the anti-shield beam." Jade said quickly.
Sensors are detecting six breen freighters on an escape vector on the dark side of the planet. They are powering up their organic warp drive systems."
"Get them off our ass for a moment."
"What's your plan, Captain?" Bren asked.
"They are distortion torpedoes, Commander." Rojac said. "We can't afford to let them escape to warp - so I'm collapsing subspace for a while until we can capture them later."'
"It worked. A distortion field is preventing them from going to warp - us too."
The Breen ships were taken care of and the security teams were transported to the Breen freighters. Athena sat calmly and blinked several times before saying, "They're here!"
"Captain, Commander! Five Romulan ships dropped out of warp outside of the planet's gravity well, due to the distortion torpedoes. At full impulse they would enter transporter range for the planet's surface in ten minutes." Zerphimi reported.
"Reese, what's Lancer Squadron's status?" The Captain asked.
"They're making bombing runs planet side." Jade said.
"Then we'll have to intercept." Roajc said. "Dior plot an intercept course and engage. Best speed."
"Aye, sir." The half-bajoran half-betazoid Lieutenant replied over her shoulder. "Weapons range in three minutes."
"I'm getting a report from the Magellan; they're under attack by two Romulan ships and have evacuated the Rapier," Bren reported. "I'm going to tell them to hold their ground as long as they can to delay those two birds."
Athena had sat quietly for several minutes... almost as if she had become a mute. "Captain, I'm sensing something else out there." Athena could feel something else but didn't know what it could be it was almost as if something else was hiding just waiting. {Something wicked this way comes ...} echoed silently through her head.
