[Do not post here unless you are a GM]
As the Resolute would exit Warp, a stolen Federation vessel was drifting and destroyed in space. All comm channels cut off as the Gorn moved to intercept supposed hostile reinforcements. After one of their ships perished they have instantly turned their guns on the Federation.
Disruptors and Torpedoes fired at the Resolute. Unprepared it took a hard blow to it's shielding the moment it arrived.
Performing evasive maneuvers the Resolute began to fire a spread of phasers in return fire. Only denting shields of their enemy. The Resolute would nose dive diverting shields to back and sides of it's haul.
Phaser beams and disruptor cannons crossed and intertwined in the space between them. The shields on each would flash with each impact of the disruptors. On the bridge, things were hectic as they had went to red alert, unprepared for an instant fire fight. The ship engaged boldly none the less, instead of turning to retreat.
The lightning storm in space gradually getting more violent around the two different vessels. As the phasers and disruptors crossed one another hitting each other's shields, both took critical shield hits. The battle had begun, and it was going to be awhile longer before their escort to reach them. Leaving the Centaur Class outmatched in firepower.
The Gorn continued firing at the Resolute, matching their ship projectory. Keeping their disruptor cannons aimed towards the front of the ship. As the shields were being pushed toward the back it left this area more vulnerable.
The ship continued the dive and attempt a horse shoe Manuever in it's firing strategy. But as their guns hammered the Gorn ship, so too was the Resolute torn into. Causing a massive explosion close to the bridge area. Causing pieces of the Resolute to go drifting into space along with more Crew. Phasers still firing rapidly, acting as point defenses to stop torpedoes mid travel.
As the Gorn ship was destroyed by the Resolute by near sheer luck. A huge black ship exited a massive lightning storm, having come back in time to the TNG era. It came out shooting as it saw a Federation vessel. Tearing the Resolute to shreds with multiple torpedoes and disruptors.
The USS Resolute lost all power and was drifting towards the planet. Whatever power it had left was being used to manually target torpedoes aiming for life pods and shuttles. Eris however had to stay aboard or her crew would perish. Leaving her to be soon stranded on the Gorn Homeworld.
The USS Enterprise finally arrived. Though unprepared it had to immediately evade ship debris, getting the left side of its saucers paint and platting scratched badly. Before torpedoes fired across it's decks blowing holes in her and her rear left warp coil. The ship began to fire back but power was knocked out toward it's shielding. Leaving it almost a sitting duck as it was shot up and struggling to avoid incoming debris. Getting knocked into a drift as it took a massive explosion in it's broadside. USS Resolute debris was all around it, but it fired what guns it hard to protect life pods it could see. Despite the fact they too were drifting and bleeding.
Task Force Guardian, outmatched and outgunned had Resolute and Enterprise drifting and bleeding in the water. Explosions rippled across Enterprise and Resolute crashed down into the Planet. Life pods were fired out along with shuttles. Eris went down with her ship. Only ejecting once she was in atmosphere and crashing through clouds. Stranded.
