As Brainaic 5 completes his scan of the ship facing you, he determines that the craft has shields raised and that the weaponry includes Photon Rays as well as some sort of freeze ray which appears to disable ships, In addition to these weapons the craft is armed with some sort of torpedo system that appears to be rather descructive though the Legion crafts shields will prevent oncoming damage for a short while.

The communications signal is coming from the ship that faces you. Do you choose to acknowledge them?

Brainiac decides to acknowledge the ship that is hailing, while glancing at the data he received on the other ship while making an intelligence check

(for basic intelligence check16 + 15 = 31 or if it would better fall under bypass computer security systems 16 + 19 = 35)
to determine if it was feesible for him to hack the computer of the other ship without their knowledge and disable their weaponry in order to best elleviate the problem at hand.
(If the check to see if it is possible is successful then I would make a Disable Security Systems check 14 + 22 = 36 adding in my knowledge of advanced alien technology as needed 19 + 22 = 41)
Brainiac then announces on the communications system, "This is Brainiac 5, representative of the United Planets and the Legion of Super-heroes. Identify yourselves so we may end these hostilities in a efficient and expedious fashion."

At that moment a light begins to emerge from the center of space itself, nearly instananeous, the light grows until you can see inside. A small craft comes out of the light and zips downward, flying underneath you. Also coming out of the light are two military crafts which follow the small ship. Each one attempts to fly around you. The first one flies to your left without difficulty yet the other seems to be headed directly towards you.

Anticipating this scenario, Brainiac 5 has already employed the shields and thus you are somewhat protected.

Whomever is navigating your craft must make a Planetary Travel Military Air & Space Transport, Maneuvering roll in order to turn just enough for them to miss you. It would seem as if you caught them by surprise.

That was close. Brainy, who are these guys?

You turn the ship nearly all the way sideways to avoid this reckless craft. All three crafts are now behind you.

Dream Girl "The first ship contains the Princess. Ultra Boy turn this heap around or go outside and take them down. Jo, do something before its to late!"

You got it! Hold on!

Turns craft around and prepares to engage ships.

As Ultra Boy maneuvers the ship around, one of the two crafts continues to gain ground on the lone ship. At that point the craft gaining opens fire with a red beam of light protruding from the front of the ship. Based on appearance, the craft is firing a photon ray, a weapon often used to disable other crafts or large groups of people without causing permanent harm.

The second craft breaks away from its companion and turns as you turn. Once you've completed your 180 turn, you find yourself face to face with the second military craft. One of your monitors warning lights goes on, telling you that someone is trying to contact you. Without running a quick scan, it is difficult to tell which ship is hailing you. A Computers and Communications check at +10 will determine the ship and allow you visual and verbal communications as well.

Should you be interested in scanning their ship for weapons and shields, it will also require a Computers and Communications check.

ooc: OKay this is like the fourth time I've tried to post (and now I am updating to include CosmosMasters last post) this over the last two days so here is hoping it works this time.

Brainiac 5: Brainiac views the ships coming out of the portal with and glances quickly at Dream Girl before returning his gaze to the activity that is now occurring outside the ship. As the first pursuing ship fires on the escaping Princess' vessel, Brainiac quickly begins to use the computer terminal in front of him to determine all the variables of the situation he and the other Legionnaires have now found themselves in.

Computer and Communications check to scan the vessel.
13 + 24 = 37

After glancing at the information on the terminal ahead of his with what he discovered in regards to the ship ahead of the Legion ship, Brainiac speaks to the other Legionnaires before communicating with the contacting ship. "Projectra, it would be best if you get down to the blasters, we may have need of the weaponry and from there you will still have adequate view point to use your talents if we have need to give our friends here an image to confuse or scare them. Jo, let myself or Nura take the controls as we may have need of your skillset out there to handle our attackers if they decide to fire on us. Now let's see who's trying to contact us."

Dream Girl leads Ultra Boy to the gym where Timber Wolf is working out. Currently, Brin is about 30 feet in the air doing a quadruple flip and attempting to stand on a 2 inch beam resting 3 feet of the floor.

Timber Wolf, in order to complete the move when it's interupted, please make a Concentration check (challenge score of 15 or higher succeeds, anything less and you lose your concentration because of the interuption.

Hey furball! Stop chasing your tail and get down here. Dreamy's got some news.

"Eloquent as always Jo." states Brainiac 5 as he enters the gym with a computer pad in his hands. He then looks up for a brief moment to look at Dream Girl before returning his gaze to his computer pad, "Nura, your obviously astute analysis of the current political situation occurring on Anthalla may well point to something. I of course would like to know what originally must have pointed you to what has to have amounted to months of newsfeed from Anthalla to have picked up on the nuances of the sociopolitical hotbed issues resulting in a coup of the current government. But I am sure that discussion would quickly dissolve, as you will no doubt attribute these findings to your "dreams", which is of course totally nonsensical." Ever verbose Brainiac continues, "You mentioned earlier being able to rendezvous at the precise coordinates at a specific time of a fleeing ship carrying the true heir to the throne of Anthalla, which by my calculations the possibility of you being correct are 1:8,535,694,584,125 give or take but the need for our departure to make a voyage of that nature to arrive at that time would be within the next 28 minutes and 32 seconds. I suggest if we are to follow up on this whim of yours we leave immediately, unless of course Jo and Brin would rather continue their usual duel of monosyllabic repartee which being the case my time could be better spent in my lab continuing with the multitude of experiments and innovations I am currently tied up with."
