The first Aleph took several hits to the wing and burst into flames, its shell storage igniting. However, in the last seconds of its life, it set a course directly for the bridge of the lead Paris. The drone crashed full speed into the bridge, and it's nuclear reactor went critical, vaporizing the bridge, the surrounding area, and severely damaging the rest of the ship's front section. Meanwhile, the cloaked ships immediately uncloaked, dumped flares, and activated Emergency Protocol Seven, overheating their reactor to attain a speed of Mach 5.5, instantly outpacing the following ships and disappearing into another vent. Once they were sure they had lost their pursuers, they wended their way back to the Enlightened base, information intact, but severely damaged and needing full reactor replacement.
