Inside, Sloan seethed. Twice now they'd had the opportunity to face down the Indomitable and twice they'd been denied the prize. He had clearly envisioned how Defiant would have first disabled and then boarded the massive Imperial ship of that cursed universe. He would have led the prize crew and once they had taken control, he would have piloted the ship back personally. He smiled seeing himself as others would, proudly standing on the bridge. He would never be allowed to keep that ship as his own of course, but bringing it back would have been sufficient to push his name to the top of the promotions list.
Sloan hadn't realized until recently just how badly he wanted his own command, and now that he'd uncovered that need, it writhed in him waiting to strike. He glared at the Captain's back. Addison wanted to be like Blackledge but Blackledge wouldn't have come back from another universe virtually empty handed. Blackledge was a conqueror and comparatively, Addison was a coward.
