Service History
We are the Borg Fleet Action Mission, The Great Chase
The USS Century, while on patrol along the Federation/Romulan Republic border, intercepted messages and sensor readings that indicated the presence of a Borg vessel of unknown configuration and purpose in their patrol area. The crew spent just over a standard Terran week searching for the vessel without significant results before a transport vessel happened upon what was later identified as a Borg Scout ship. The crew of the transport escaped the Scout vessel without incident, and the USS Century began pursuit and monitoring of the Borg's activities.
Under the Century's surveillance, the Borg vessel raided a derelict relay station, harvesting only a small assortment of seemingly random items before departing the area. This strange behavior from the vessel was inexplicable to the crew, and the purpose for it remains an unsolved mystery. After leaving the relay station behind, the Scout craft entered Romulan Republic space, which the Century also crossed, taking the precaution of warning the local authorities of both their purpose for entering their sovereign territory and of the presence of the Borg threat they were pursuing.
The Borg Scout did not approach or assail any assets within Romulan Republic space, using it only as the fastest means of transit to their actual destination, a well-hidden Romulan installation within a star system just outside of the Velorum Nebula. Given the location sat within the contested region of Romulan space controlled by rivaling warlords, the USS Century was forced to suspend their pursuit of the craft just inside of Republic space. The ship began monitoring the situation via long range sensors, able to witness but not prevent the events that followed.
The Borg Scout arrived in the target system and began an immediate and merciless assault of the installation and its defenders. During the raid, the Century crew was able to determine that the vessel had been seeking some manner of object that was emitting a homing signal the ship had not detected before given the specialist nature of the frequency being used. Once they had this information, the Century scanned their immediate area for another signal of its like, determining that at least within the range of its scan, there were no signals that might draw the Scout back toward Federation or allied space. The Scout soon departed the area, and while the Century's Executive Officer made a plea for the vessel to render aid, the ship did not violate contested space as the Commanding Officer deemed it too great a risk should the Romulans controlling the system see it as an act of aggression.
The USS Century concluded its surveillance mission when the craft departed deeper within the area of space the Federation vessel was unable to pursue it through for diplomatic reasons. The ship instead set a course back toward Federation space to resume the patrol that had been their original mission.
