The nearly-programmed Jem'Hadar took over the attack on Starfleet HQ. The Breen, who considered themselves infinitely inventive, sought out the random target. They seemed to find it in an odd basin off of Tokyo Bay that appeared unnatural. It had high energy readings and read as a deeply hardened target. Beneath his helmet, the Breen squadron leader smiled. Surely this was an undersea base to which the leaders of Starfleet and the Federation had fled, to avoid their wrath. If this place were taken out, the Breen could demand Q'onos system from the Female Founder, no question. The vast tractor beams that had shredded Cadet Hall in San Francisco now pulled away the waters that hid the base, while white-hot beams boiled the rest away as they regathered. Beams that would soon rip apart even the localized starhearts of a Defiant-Class's shields tore into the object below. The imagined safety of the cowardly Terrans would die with their leaders. Then, the 'base' began to move. In a moment, it was standing on its hind legs. The fighter craft sent in to chip away at its armor were swatted like horseflies by an enormous tail that had been mistaken for an exhaust tube. Then, a glow first blue, then red, then gold built along an outer spine of dorsal fins. The grey-green 'base' fixed its white-eyed gaze on the main Breen Baseship. The squadron leader learned to speak one word of Terran before a beam like no other emerged from the mouth of the misscanned creature, cutting his ship in two with no effort. "Godzilla." NewMessage:
