This might be another epic fail thread by me but I'll give it a go and see who bites.
Each continuation of the story should be one line long and should finish mid-sentence, although you can use full-stops in the middle of the continuation. The continuation should be in bold, comments in normal text.
Actually, sod the rules, just do whatever you want. In bold.

I had the weirdest dream."
"No time for that now," said Steve, "Weren't you paying attention in the briefing room? We're about to attack this large Cylon installation that looks like a moon but is in fact a space station. Its only weakness is a small thermal exhaust port which a small one-man fighter could fire a nuclear missile down if they got it just right. We need to fly down a trench to get there so the defence guns don't pick us off."
"Action stations, action stations," blared the PA. "All pilots to their Vipers."
"Look at the size of that thing!" breathed ensign Steve "Wedge" Antilles, as the formation of Vipers and Raptors approached what Starbuck had dubbed a "Doom Sun". Galactica and Pegasus had been left behind because they were no match for the massive laser gun on the Doom Sun's top side, which was apparently capable of destroying a planet.
"Incoming Raiders!"
A vicious dogfight ensued as the Vipers and Raptors battled through to the Doom Sun. They formed up and entered the trench.
Suddenly three Raiders joined the fight that felt different to the rest. Two flanked a third which had a long gash down its face. They chased the Vipers down the trench as they tried to make their attack runs.
Now it was Starbuck's turn, taking Kat and Apollo with her. If Scar could have said anything, it probably would have been I have you now.
Starbuck inexplicably turned off her targeting computer.
"Starbuck, Galactica. We're reading that you've switched off your targeting computer, is everything alright?"
"Galactica, Starbuck. I'm fine."
Scar closed in.
"Let's burn some toast!" shouted Starbuck. Apollo winced.
She fired a nuclear missile towards the thermal exhaust port
I'm kinda disappointed someone else has to continue this now. I want to pick it up and run with it ¬_¬

but then a raider, which was firing and chasing Racetrack's Raptor, flew past! In a split second, Racetrack's Raptor exploded after coming under fire from the raider, which was destroyed by Starbuck's missile. "Frak!" shouted Starbuck in frustration.
It was like a 5th November display as Apollo watched in shock and disbelief as Starbuck accelerated towards the Doom Sun. "Aaaaaaaaaaargh!!" screamed Starbuck, her eyes focused on the thermal exhaust port. "Not again," thought Apollo! "Starbuck! What are you doing? Are you frakking nuts??" he shouted. "Nope, but how about a fruitcake?" answered Starbuck with a smirk.
Meanwhile, back in the CIC
pagad
July 16th, 2008, 02:18 PM
the battle was being monitored as neither battlestar was involved in the attack. Adama, Tigh and the rest of the Galactica command crew were looking at each other nervously like a certain cadre of rebel leaders on a planet called Yavin IV as the pilots' battle chatter echoed around CIC.
Starbuck decided to break off her attack - no way was she going to get another shot at this range.
"Starbuck, Apollo - get this frakkin' thing off me!" shouted Apollo as Scar closed in once more.
"Yee-haw!" screamed Starbuck as she flew in from out of the sun, in the manner of a certain smuggling vessel captained by a similarly cocky pilot.
Scar blew up under Starbuck's fire. "You're all clear Apollo! Now let's blow this frakkin' thing and go home!"
Let go, Lee, he could hear his father saying in his head.
Apollo fired his nuke straight down the thermal port. The remaining Vipers began heading for home.
Brother Cavil had just got the Galactica in range of the Doom Sun's laser when the Doom Sun blew up in a brilliant sparkly explosion as the nuke detonated in the core.

Unfortunately, in very real terms, the cake was made of scat. Thus rendering the whole cake thing absurd and borderline ageist.
At this point Tigh punched a wall which sent the Battlestar Galactica crashing into the Earth incredibly hard, leaving a dent in Peru the size of Peru.
Tigh walked out, feeling marginally dizzy and walked to Italy. On water. Like Jesus but harder and immune to crucifixes yet able to build them just as well as Jesus but with no formal carpentry training. In fact the Tigh crucifix was 50% more efficient, 78% sturdier and once you're pinned to it there is NO resurrection. Not even for Cylons. Or even Jesus Cylons.
ARGH! THAT'S THE ANSWER! Jesus is the final Cylon.

The Cylons kept Hera in a crib on the Baystar in For Whom The Wind Tolls Part 2. But for that oversight your post would have had veracity as well as balls. Sadly, instead, I move to strike it from the canon of this story and continue unabated with the cake thing.
