-The Borg-
Captain Jane Fields offered Ameen the position of Chief Engineer aboard the USS Copernicus, and with the blessing of his current CO, Captain Gabriel Archer, he decided to accept it. It did not take long for Morad to fit in on the new ship, and he started to slowly, but surely, make new friends. Before he knew it, the crew became like a second family to him, and the ship, a second home.
On their first mission, to attempt a second first contact with a species called the Eklata, the Galactic Science Cruiser was called to Pioneer Outpost by Admiral Thrawn himself. The Federation hero was leading a strike force to take on a mysterious Borg megasphere that detected. After the shock of the news that the Borg have returned, the plan was laid out. Turns out that the Copernicus's rule was largely that of support. She was to use her advanced computing power to process the incoming data while gathering what intel she could on the sphere itself. However, very early in the battle, the ship was engaged by a couple of Borg Probes and was able to dispatch them with the help of the Philadelphia and the Ozaki. However, during the attack, the Captain had ordered that cuts power to non critical decks in order to boost the shields. The rookie chief engineer did as ordered. The plan worked and the shields were back up to 71% and rising. However, when power was restored to said decks, it was discovered that a handful of Borg Drones had boarded the ship somehow.
Before the crew could organize a reaction, the ship was under the Borg's control. They infiltrated the secondary computer core and used it to take control of the ship's system. Soon the crew found itself without power and light. Working under such conditions was a novel experience for Ameen. But in the end, with the help of his engineers, they were able to drive off the Borg and restore control of the ship. Two were transported into the vacuum of space by a team of engineers who boarded a runabout. One was shot by security, and the two others retreated back to their ship in hurry. In the end, the Copernicus ended up playing a minor role in the battle, but the fleet was victorious and the Megasphere was destroyed. It did leave behind the Queen's ship flanked by two dark ships of a design unknown to Morad. They jumped to an unknown location with whatever remnant of the Borg forces soon after, and the fleet was unable to give pursuit.
Finally, Ameen was glad he had survived such an epic battle and lived to tell the tale. He did witness the end of some of Starfleet's most iconic ships, such as his previous home the USS Intrepid for example. But he gained a lot of valuable experience in the process, and he was ready to put that into good use on his next mission.
