Commander Hwiii slept peacefully in his water-filled quarters on board runabout Tursiops.
After two weeks debates and discussions regarding are the surface service Hwiii those
welcomed by Amicus on Kithrup (of, which was he a major part), free time during the journey back to the EHB Stenos
. It had not even the computer on its max. Warpgeschwindigkeit adjusted. It was good
six hours out.
It was in a deep sleep, not a simple masterpiece for a dolphin and dreamed over a
battle, a very large battle, in which he instructed the Stenos
and work of the enemy snapped formed. He did not know, whom the enemy was, or why
he her fought, but he loved each second of it. It held the highest position of each
possible Neo fin in Star Fleet (the First Officer the Stenos
), but, starship to instruct to only one dream was good. Neo dolphins were relatively
new to its in the workstation. But they were large at it, at least by human standards.
Suddenly the computer entered one tachyonstromstoss behind runabout. Looking its data
bases up, he looked for each possible Interrelation of the phenomena. Then it appeared:
a Klingon, which hides unit. Knowing that the Klingons were perhaps hostile, it followed the automated Feindseligkeitsituation primary possibility, those from slowing
the ship down to the drive existed and and runabout arming raised the signs weapons
limited.
Hwiii heard the alarm siren and woke up immediately. It was, thus start LED that it
its end piece on the cell distance of its quarters struck. Quietly verfluchend, he
oriented himself the situation.
"He said computers," in his high, quietschenden voice, "which is our status?" He believed
sudden runabout to take a direct hit, of, which believed like the rear side.
"The Tursiops
is under attack by two cruisers attack Klingon category Vor'cha and a not identified
container Klingon. Figure eight signs are with 73 per cent, weapons are armed."
"Fires at the will!" Hwiii cried, surprised at the lack of the computer Self preservation.
"If I this survives, becomes I to these on computers with my own fins change over,"
it too thought. It swam to its 'harness', which enabled it, over the ship to move and it outside of his quarters kept alive. It was limited to the far wall and received
a constant current the drug, which held its skin damp and with draining. Now its
collector was almost full.
It swam into him and in feeling it cock its dorsal fin, instructed it, in order to
activate. It reeled in its mains cable and closed around Flipper Hwiii. He believed
another hit and swam from its door into the bridge area.
He came up to the control panel and instructed the waldowarme of the wires two ',
around control runabout with its neuralen drives to take. With the rate of the human
hands, he turned the talent off approximately, thus its damaged figure eight section
way of the damage out was. Which he saw, two smaller cruisers, those was easily an immeasurable
talent as large as the Stenos
border even.
"Holy scheisse!" he thought too, while he evaded to manually very large bangs of the
large cannon of the cruiser. Being successfully, it fired its own phasers. They struck
harmlessly away of describing the ship. Disgusted, he turned the ship and took one
of the other cruisers Vor'cha in attack.
Phasers struck the trunk at the full strength and dug into the alloy. The cruiser
took substantial damage of its to leave figure eight section, before it could, a
runaboutzuendungstrecke.
Now double poppet was Hwiii in the trouble again. All three ships locked in a triangular
arrangement, around escaping Hwiii refuse. He saw its attack and and used the last
energy resources runabout, fires to its entire radix complement that off and it started torpedoes and max. phaserknallen at the intact cruiser Vor'cha to explode into
a burning flame.
The enormous cruiser fired two fusion procedures of bangs with the Tursiops
. Hwiii evaded first, but the second found its marking, and those signs were destroyed
immediately. The sparks, which are from the bridge panels and the Hwiii spewed, flew
back to the surprise and tried to avoid the burning shower. Runabout was dead in
the workstation.
"Computer, said Hwiii to damage report" of the rear side of the bridge fetching.
"Signs and phasers indirectly. Completeness of trunk on 88%." Sudden shook the talent
as the tractor light beam of the cruiser, on it became closed. Hwiii looked from
the Window out and saw runabout, the naeeher at the lower surface of the cruiser
one pulled. It tried to think of any way to escape or descend at least a fighting, but that
double poppet was in the ruins.
Then it received an idea. "Computer," caught it, "adjusted even more destructtimer
on 10 seconds, begins COUNT down on mine marking."
On, "security code requested for even destructaktivierung," the computer, which was
said as Hwiii, swam from the bridge toward for transport device.
It hissed authorization Hwiii, First Officer in the disturbance. "Security code tursiops-tursiops-4-4-5-gamma-9!"
"Authorization valid. Expect the signal," it answered. Up to this time Hwiii already
input the feed coordinates into the CONTROLLER console. It adjusted the timer to
fifteen seconds and swam on the edition, during it down quietly too counted above.
When it arrived at five, it explained the computer, "begins COUNT down."
The transport device activated. It transported too, which failed, to be the confusion
hall. It shot immediately toward to the door and to fewer than five foot of it, of
feeding Klingons, that at the intruder was out branched and seized it by its end
piece.
This only infuriated Hwiii. With lightning rate whirled it around and clamped fixed
its needle-sharp teeth down on the Klingon other hand. The warrior kreischte in the
surprise and into the pain, and even during he to go left and Hwiii of its range
released, was runabout exploded.
Hwiii had stopped the coordinates to as far away of the detonationsite, as possible,
but it believed him here smoothes that the ship swung as it from the impact. Intercepted
by surprise, almost each person branched in the staff away from her chair and out of the doors. Even as the latter, the ship still swung to archived out from the explosion.
The space was almost empty, except three, who had cowered under its table, when commotion
began. Surprised at the sudden emptiness the space, Hwiii turned toward to the door
and during it opened, by five Klingons with its circuit breaker disks was greeted, which were smoothed at its rust rostrum.

"You did not have brackets, each possible bleeding or everything?"
"Nope, nothing."
"Well, you are there half. In other six months you and Hwiii have a brand-new calf,"
Medical Main Officer Makanee said, how Commander right page above turned Laka and
with Makanee to their office in sickbay the complex swam.
"As it, take you the messages?" Makanee asked, when entering information into its
computer.
"Well, was he surprises few, first. He could not believe that I considered it from
him so long."
"Well, you look finely. Even maintenance doing which you did and the half one year,
that you become recompenced."
"So long," said, their fins seem to Laka expanding.
"Well, you are fit, in order to return the function. Report you back to me immediately,
over if you experience any unusual symptoms."
"Thanks. I will." If this Laka is turned and swam from the Sickbay and toward to the
turbo-elevator to the bridge.
On the bridge were things, while they normally were: Peace. Captain and the second
officers spoke, completed those navigation and communications of officers work on
their own consoles, and the remainder of the bridge crew were calm plaudernd and
laughing. Then Commander Laka swam inside and took its station at tactical.
"Commander, welcome back!" Captain Johnson said, standing up. Laka turned.
"Is back to be well," you said.
"It gone only a half hour!" Kris said, was near it and deletes its damp rear side.
"I know, but I miss, here to be," you said with a slight smile.
"Well," he, said, "how is the calf?"
"Makanee says that he does finely."
"That is large. I am lucky for you two." It groped them a pair of times and walked
then back to its own chair. "Laka, would you hail Mr. Hwiii and would guarantee that
it is still on course?"
"Gladly." You turned back around the smile and knocked some keys. Then their smile
verb-let.
"I do not read the Tursiops
nowhere within the sensor area, but I select up sufficient arrears, around to assume...
OH my God." You stared viewscreen on, at the thought of it only love, of Hwiii, absolutely
from the attack betaeubt. It could not possible its.
"Captain," Commander Allgeyer said, "I selects up two ships on the long distance sensors,
those approximately to marking 45 of the stocks 383, at warp 8.5 precede. I am not
capable of indicating their configuration in this distance."
"Well, I think that those two ships are our best bet at calculating out, what will
occur here. Commander, position in one pursuit course, max. warp."
"Course inside put."
"You engage yourselves!"

The Stenos
intercepted easily above with the two ships, which travel at smaller than their maximum
speed. As it in the weapons were, Johnson of given new jobs extend.
"Containers hail the line. Instruct it to solve their warplaufwerk or we fire on them."
"Message now transmitting," King said. "It increase rate."
"Everything rightey then. Laka, fire Art-ein, the verb-ridden become in its path,
minimum detonation result."
"Sir." Laka broke suddenly of their trance off, which she had stopped the entire time,
since she had discovered that Hwiii dead to be could. "Firing."
The torpedoes brought to the detonation before the cruiser. The two ships slows down
from warp.
"Full impact," Johnson. "Kept finally its attention," ordered.
"Captain, the cruiser comes approximately. It arms its weapons," Laka said.
"Red alarm!" Sirens roared and red warning lights flashed on and away. "Tactical analysis,
Commander!"
"The weapons of the cruiser rival those of the Stenos
and can our capacity exceed," you would apply themselves suddenly their console.
"It fire!" off.
"Full energy to describing!" Johnson gekreischt. The ship shook violently like the
bangs fusion procedures of the cruiser, in its signs were torn up.
"Expresses signs down! Internal signs with 88 per cent and stopping!" said the dolphin.
"Back getting fires! Full circuit breaker disks! Avoiding MusterDreieck gamma daystar!"
The Stenos
dipped under the cruiser and fired its phasers, while it withdrew around for another
run from the rear. The doppelunterbrecherscheibecannons tore the upper platforms
up of the ship Klingon of its trunk violently.
"Maneuvering successfully! The signs of the cruiser are with 80 per cent!" mentioned
Laka.
"Approximately come for another run!"
"They fire again! And the escort ship is also!"
"Bracket for effect! Avoiding -"
Johnson was thrown by its chair, before he would know the remainder of the instruction
kreischen. Sparks flew to burning elbow, during electrical pipes over-loaded and
exploded. Commander Laka was thrown by its console, while it melted from the fire.
Light went out completely over the bridge during one moment, and then weaker lighting
came on into its workstation, after the DIN terminated.
"Mains voltage off-line! Not reacting phasers! Signs are DOWN!" Second Officer Joe
Caruso said.
Johnson left the floor and back into its chair. He coughed to that of smokes, the
bridge cloudily. "Engages themselves you that hide to the unit! Take to us!" away.
"The unit hiding not functionally!" Rachelle kreischte from the rear side of the bridge,
during it Laka helped to rise.
"You get us out here, max. Warp!" out.
"Sir Aye! Max. Warp!" OD Allgeyer said by its console. The Stenos
veered away of the third attack of the cruiser and disappeared in small lightning
of the light.

"The Stenos
engaged itself her warplaufwerk," the navigationsoffizier on board the said Ts'chak.
"It abandoned at Warp 9.95."
"Course?" asked Captain.
"None obviously. They seem, to only withdraw."
"What is our status?"
"Signs with 80 per cent, dorsaler trunk strictly indirectly damages, figure eight
photon torpedo launching pads."
"You arrange to operate the repair crews! I require this ship, which is completely
functional within the hour! And you resume our course to Qo'noS."
"Captain." Before said to turning to its panel the navigationsoffizier, to inputting
the coordinates.
"And you get the prisoners up to the bridge!"
Hwiii was escorted of six protection - it had already tried to escape again - by the
very large doors, those to the bridge lead. The dominating officer stared in its
dolphin eyes; Hwiii stared angerly back.
"I am a Captain K'maht of the Ts'chak
!" the Klingon roared. "What is your name and climbs?" Hwiii stared simply at it.
"I grow from asking for this tired, but I give you a further probability. What is
your name?" He pulled his own circuit breaker disk out, in order to emphasize its
point.
"My name is Hwiii," said the dolphin.
"What is your position on board the Stenos
?"
"First Officer."
"Very well. Possibly I do not have to change you to K'temok. It looks an assistant
up." Captain turned into the direction of the navigation of officer as well as Hwiii,
and it smiled a long, sinister grinsen and knurrte softly at the dolphin.
Hwiii turned to K'maht in the disgust. "Are homosexual you or even stupid?" he asked.
Captain looked, a view on a Klingon confused, that to Hwiii was not new. "However
is you not - woman?"
"No! No, I am not FEMALE! What in the name of the God gave you this idea?"
"However you have NO -"
Hwiii cut it off. "I are a dolphin. I have in. It is in a different - workstation
straight. Now, if you require,
treat cetacean anatomy, I suggest that you advise our medical personnel."
"If we to homeworld arrive, which you are taken to a anhaltenen cell, in which you
are tormented and queried. I it suggests that you co-operate or otherwise loosens
your friends on the Stenos
crew a component."
"In such a way you will return me, if I give you, what you to require?"
"In the time."
"Which you require?"
"You find out, when the time comes." It contacted its escorts. "Takes you the prisoners
back to its cellblock!"
The dolphin and six armed protection exceeded by the door to the intra plattformheber.

"Jim! Receive to me energy an inverter!" Gekreischter Leading Engineer Michael Aarsvold
to the dolphin assistant.
"Here!" the dolphin came up to Michael, which carries a rounded up cube in its opening.
Aarsvold pulled it from it violently. "How many marks has, explained I you, things
in your opening not to carry Jim?" he asked, disturbed.
"Sad Microphone, does not occur again." the dolphin did backflip and turned and went
toward to Engineer's office in front.
Aarsvold fit the inverter into a slot in a panel. "Stupid fin," which he thought,
while he locked the instrument in workstation, and gluckste.
On the bridge things were everything except normal. Fenn shot all around and as fast
as possible repaired the damage. Dolphins operated even on the trunk outside of the
ship, limited with long umbilicals.
"Mains voltage was wiederhgeerstelltes," Caruso, that as the lights on the illuminated
bridge, together with the activation all wall reading off and - panels one says.
"Well, how long, until we are functional, Malia?" Johnson said technique station to
that to a dolphin, on the right its on the bridge operates.
The fin looked above by its welding job. "The to starboard energy coupling was damaged
there, to have we at least the value one hour of repairs, possibly longer."
"Thanks," it said and knocked its communication badge. "Johnson to Aarsvold."
"Aarsvold here."
"Microphone, we must to be accelerated repairs, as, much. How long, to do we have
full weapons?"
"I am sad Kris, but I move so fast, as I can. I have each crew member and crewfin
on repairs, but
we are still one approximately hour, distant are from the full capacity."
"Thanks Auzzie," said Captain. "Johnson out."
Hwiii found its anhaltene cell - well, only. It was totally empty from any type comfort.
It had also another problem: its container of fin-then-soft (which they called the
drug, which held its skin of draining), were almost empty. It had only one hour or
so to the left the substance, which held it of the strict pain. It would have to be
either in the water, or finds you any way of synthesizing the drug.
He could not ask most for the Klingons, naturally however probably had her an idea,
like one her, there he not also not, and it was not probably interested receives.
But it was a valuable prisoner, with secrets on each entangling the Stenos
.
Then it received an idea. If it any way, which it could signal to the Stenos
gave and at least Laka and the remainder that he explains crew okay was and where
they took him, possibly he became not even around running from that fin then switches
to out worry itself must.
He looked around. Was there everything, which he could use for communications a unit?
The only unit in the space was those inner wall, those the door (if it was not locked),
the lights and the climate controlled. It swam more rueber to it. With few effort it received the panel away. But how it could use it for its advantage? That whole
panel was runs leave a door, a heating and cooling systems and a light intensity...
THAT IS IT! Intensity! It could wire its wire connection by the panel, in order to
strengthen its signal! It became those voltage very carefully to regulate to have,
but, by letting the connection run by the ship and the ship as very large antenna
used, could he for light years be heard!
He began to operate on the separation of the Spg.Versorgungsteils from the panel.
Finally he found it and pulled it out, and the space went darkness.
"Scheisse," which he said, while he instructed telepathically its wire lights, in
order to activate. He knew that, if he inadvertently, he separated the environment
checks fast suffocate.
He continued operating.

"Aarsvold to the bridge!"
"Bridge, Johnson here," Kris said. He hoped that Microphone had somewhat good message.
He. "Kris, can I not, but Takkata jim and Moki the even PTC back-got above! We are
back in the business!"
"You give to Auzzie my owing to that whole Fenn!" Kris said. "Johnson out!"
Laka turned to it. "I if, call you the workers on the trunk?"
"Please if Commander." It turned to Allgeyer. "Commander Allgeyer, Klingon, max. placed
a course for the ships warp!"
"Sad honoured gentleman, I cannot localize not her anywhere!"
"They must be hidden, then. Curse! There is no way, which we find her in the time!"
Laka knew that he was right.
Hwiii had terminated the even last link, when he considered a problem. Each space
had its own energy source in connection too its main ships supply. Around roasts
to prevent its wires with raw energy, he had the energy source the space use. However
it indicated to only sufficient energy for a system consecutively. It became the climatic
price increase of the space to separate must, in order to use the connection.
He prepared a short, encoded message - he knew that the sensors of the ship fetch
her, but them hopeful as electrical 'noises' would dismiss. Unfortunately because
of the progress in the artificial 'kieme' systems, had dolphins now a smaller lung
capacity than their predecessors, because of the fact, it their breath frequently to continue
had smaller. A deep breath taking, he separated the system of the space and attached
its connection. It then activated the connection and programmed those message, in
order to transmit.
The wire computer processed the message, which is many slower as each normal ship
computer. It took the full 10 minutes for transmitting the message. To the wires
it its burned lungs informed and it began light-preceding too feel. It pulled from
wire-links violently and put back into the space supply. As soon as he believed air on his
skin, he left from an efficient breath. He was, thus loud hoped he that the protection
did not hear outside of the door him and came in, too sees, what was loose.
It arranged fast the panel again and swam to the far wall, in order to stand still.
It intercepted finally its breath and hoped, that the Klingons did not think that
a small dolphin under monitoring could transmit a message back to its ship.
And if it, he hoped to the God, which they found him a valuable article sufficient
hostage.

"Bracket for effect!" captain, who was gekreischt as the static wave, struck the Stenos
. The ship shook in its track.
"Damage report!"
"Reports on coming into... no serious damage, Commanders of reported Allgeyer no accident."
"Captain," the King begun, "the wave left a remainder charge on our sensors. I let
a scan run
now." The bridge was quiet for approximately 15 seconds, and then panel of the Commander
of King beeped.
"Probably?"
"It is something type code!"
"You let us see it, then!" Johnson said, seins high-flying thing hoped for.
A series numbers appeared on the main line viewscreen.
"Can you decode it?"
"I think." A line of the text appeared in such a way below the numbers.
Johnson read it loud from. "Low F-S-S, to homeworld, o.k. Hwiii." It had a view of
the astonishment during one instant. "It is from Hwiii! They take it to the homeworld!
Stop a course and engage yourselves you with maximum speed!"
"Captain Aye, now engaging!" Allgeyer said.
"And you activate the hiding unit!"
On the bridge of the Ts'chak, things went as normal, when suddenly a large charge
surrounded and temporarily indirectly got the ship almost each system.
ON "WHAT HELL GOES?" Kreischte Captain, while its chair was entaktiviert.
Communications officer answered it. "Unknown up to now. any assortment of the wrapping
seems... Waiting period the static shells minute, it will give gone! For one minute
there I could swear -"
"I do not require theories! What started hell even each system on this ship to go
absolutely? Act our hiding unit entaktivieren?"
"An honoured gentleman, are not we still hidden stop and course and rate. The shell
seemed not to influence the warpfeld and hiding signs."
Captain thought this thing its in cell block 4479 during one moment. "Could it that?"
"I believe no. Not in such a way, it caused probably according to something type disturbance
of the hiding unit, probably battle damage."
"Can we remain hidden?"
"I do not watch no reason. I monitor our hiding status carefully."
"You are sure that them. How long, until we arrive?"
"Approximately two hours."
"You increase rate, around 9.6 to reject."
"Sir."
8
In cellblock 4479, Hwiii fought, to tear up in order to resist that to urge, away
from its wires and could be died. Forwards its accessories FSS had run out twenty
minutes, and it was the even start to the faith the intensive pain, in those its
wires against its skin deleted. It felt the sandpapier strongly against its smooth exterior.
He knew that soon the remainder its body would begin to believe the same way.
He could not believe that the cell did not have current water. You do not smooth a
toilet. At least on union dispatched, a tub received you. Everything that is, which
it wanted, its skin away washes, so that it can soak the humidity up.
Against its better judgement RWS it the door with its end piece.
"What is it?" gekreischt, the Klingons.
Thought Hwiii during one moment about which to say. "I need water," it began, "differently
I could die."
"I ask Captain," the protection said.
After a pair of minutes, he kreischte back to Hwiii. "We transports something water
to your space. Stay close of the door."
A pool, which filled over DreiThree fourths the space and which three foot deep geerschienen
was approximate. Hwiii estimated it, over to be approximate eight foot in the periphery.
It was filled almost to the top side with crystal-free water.
"They must like me!"meant from Hwiii, how it adjusted its wires on the edge pool and
pigeon inside. It felt wonderfully. A prisoner its was not so false possibly after
all.
The leading coworkers met in the conference room to repeat possible rescue methods
of the Commander Hwiii.
"We could blow up hell from all out even and if we out-get Hwiii to find, him transport
above and hell
out there!" Allgeyer said.
"Yeah and if we drop our signs to the feed, the cruiser could blow up decloak and
us, in order to lock dust. I think no, not in such a way"
Laka went first. "What, if we took a hidden double poppet, in order to look it up?"
"The only double poppets with the hiding of the units are the AM-4's, and we will
not receive them until the following week. All, which we have, are AM-2L's and SN-6's."
"Well, I could modify a Aarsvold said with a hiding unit," SN-6 which can be fit.
"How?"
"I would have to delete most of its weapons and sign emitters for the energy, which
the coat would need. However can I the stability of the hiding unit do not guarantee."
"In order. Do it. How much you need time will, in order to form do the modifications?"
"One hour should be fine."
"You have it. Laka and Allgeyer, meeting in the main line shuttlebay at 1830 hours.
Dismisses."

"You slow down to the drive!" Captain of the Ts'chak knurrte. "You get us in course
homeworld! Prepare for the prisoners for deportation!" forwards.
"Captain," which the Police Officer said.
Hwiii amused itself immeasurably in the pool, when the armed team Klingon came to
its cell door to down-increase him to the planet.
The opened door and Hwiii opened its eyes of standing still. "You are with us to come,"
the said team leader.
"You go!" away, Hwiii squealed back at it.
"You come now or we terminate you!"
Rose Hwiii strongly from the pool. "I is sure that you me, if I have information about
each tactical detail of - would terminate."
Response Hwiii was cut briefly as one the group, which was fired with Hwiii by the
rear side. Hwiii calmly from one read whistles, how it flew back and slammed shut
to the opposite wall of the pool. The water colourcolour colours turned of the blood.
The team leader turned. "Who fired this shot?"
"I," one of the said officers. "It lives."
"You die," said the leader, like it its circuit breaker disk on ungehorsamSEIENDEN
the officer showed and a large drilling in its torso created.
It turned back to Hwiii, which fought, in order to change itself. There was a medium
sized wound on the left side of its antinode bulge. "Receive a medical team above
immediately here!"
"I read Captain directly in front tachyonfeld!" Allgeyer suddenly said.
"Full impact! Report!"
"The field seems to put a range around from approximately 900 million square kilometer.
Any the hidden ship, that by it exceeds, became immediately provable its."
"Can we go around it?"
"That would take additional 12 hours."
"We do not have that much time. Suggestions, everyone!"
"Honoured Mr., the field raster field is to permit far enough passage of a double
poppet. We would know the modified SN-6 of here reliably discharge."
"As long it would take it, in order to achieve the planet?"
"With full rate, 1 hour."
"Okay, then is it. Influence position to further orders, Commander."
"Sir."
10
The medical team who can be transported to the surface could to clean for Hwiii appropriately
above enough. There it became one cell taken.
The cell on the homeworld was a little improves as on the cruiser. At least it had
a tub. But Hwiii was in too many pain for interesting. The team output it to the
left within the door and. It did not have no more its wires, and its wound, if small,
were deeply. It hurt like hell. And it was adhered, where they set it.
It might not have been a prisoner more.
Aarsvold had terminated the modifications to one the double poppet and had informed
Kris and Laka, which would accompany him.
The new SN-6 looked more or less normally. It missed two of its four vorwaertsunterbrecherscheibecannons
and had one curious curious looking adding on its rear side.
"So, we are to be gone ready for use?"
"So ready for use, as we at all are. I must come along to guarantee corresponding
function of the coat. It is underweaponed a small to increase but I knew to use something
extra energy its maximum speed. It should us approximately 45 minutes only last,
around the planet to achieve now."
"Which we up to resistance expect can?"
"Tutor from it. We must land hidden and use our connections, around our way back for
the double poppet too find. We must also radiosilence maintained."
"In order. Laka, Aarsvold, let you go us. Johnson to the bridge!"
"Caruso here, Sir."
"We begin the mission. All system monitor if of the attack. If there is any threat
to the ship or to the crew, I require you here abandoned. Forget over us."
"Sir. Of property luck."
"Thanks. We need it. Johnson out."
The SN-6 left the Stenos
, while both ships were hidden. The first 40 minutes of the journey after the planet
exceeded uneventfully.
"We approach to the planet," Aarsvold said.
"In order, you prepare for landing. Laka, have you searched on Hwiii?"
"And I believe that I found him. I transfer the coordinates to they."
Aarsvold and Johnson studied the location, in the Hwiii were thought for being continued.
"It last us approximately 10 minutes, over it to achieve," said Johnson.
"We enter the atmosphere," Aarsvold reported.
11
"Commander! I read an atmospheric distortion over the east hemisphere!" said the tactical
officer on the Ts'chak
.
"Is it a ship?"
"Unknown up to now. If it is, it has.got, to be shuttlecraft. But -"
"However which?"
"I have seen never a hidden shuttlecraft beforehand!"
"Naturally you do not have, you idiot! Hidden ships are invisible!"
"That is not, which I meant -"
"Sound alarm! Direct the distortion and the fire!"
"Commander!" Allgeyer called out. "The double poppet is under attack!"
"How?" Caruso asked, standing up.
"As it the atmosphere of the planet entered, created the hiding unit distortion a
field around the ship! They could not additionally to be hidden!"
"OH oH-Scheisse," it said.
"I if, open you for fire?"
"No! Under no circumstance we decloak! We must hope that they can leave an alive there."
The double poppet was knocked sudden by an explosion by a page. The hands of the crew
in disorder frantically over the checks.
"We are under attack!" Aarsvold said.
"Well, duh!" said the dolphin of the rear drawer. "Signs hold!" on.
"What occurred? Are we hid still?"
"But the atmosphere of the planet created an ion defect around the ship! We are as
visibly as a cube let us borrow!"
"Well, the interruption does not leave, as soon as we leave the upper atmosphere?"
"Yeah, but we regard approximately two minutes, to we!"
"Not somehow more!" Kris said, forward shoving the control stick. The double poppet
pigeon wekzeugspritze first toward to the planet.
"The distortion has increases rate!"
"It is a ship! Open for fire!"
"Honoured Mr., the distortion disappeared even! They must have left the upper atmosphere!"
"You inform the surface of the intruders! Do not leave that receive ship back above
in workstation!"
12
"We deleted the upper atmosphere! They can now pull us out this dipping, Kris!"
"Okay," he said, while he withdrew on the flight stick. Shuttlecraft friendly obeys,
away smoothing.
Laka reported, "we is approximately 400 miles of the means. Our E.t.a. is seven minutes,
42 seconds."
Suddenly did the double poppet and the control panel, which like a Christmas tree
was lit up above on. "What hell goes, shake?" Johnson gekreischt.
"The coat is unfunktional!"
"OH largely, even large! I am sure that gladly we took this plan into an act!"
"I can adjust to hang on -"
"Do you adjust? How?"
"I white, even do not give me one second -"
"OH my God!" Johnson said and regarded armada the double poppet Klingon GT1, those
on them from the front side close.
"Erhoehungschilder! Lever weapons and - fires!" Aarsvold gekreischt, flotilla seeing
the coming thing.
"I have estimated its location by her flight path angle, Captain!"
"You lock target and fire!"
"You refer hit! Their coat solve!"
"You search target and alarm you near-surface units!"
"It seems to be attack a talent by something type fast and moderately armed, three
passengers. Two are human, that other one is a dolphin!"
"The Stenos
! Condemn those fools! They guaranteed their demise only now! Leave tachyonfeld by
9 million expand kellicams outside! Find the Stenos
!"
The SN-6, although easily armed, was still another capable fighter, and destroyed
three of the ships Klingon before it had even damage taken. But the ships Klingon,
to which leading the double poppet, came immediately approximately and opened fire.
"Hit to the figure eight section! Signs with 79 per cent and stopping!"
"You increase rate to maximum!"
"They win still! And ignition!" Aarsvold said. The double poppet supported a direct
hit on its port drive machine, locked it and throws the container into a rotational
acceleration.
"We have lost port drive!" gekreischter Johnson, trying, the situation as the remaining
six double poppets GT1 too control flew behind it.
"Down machines turn on!" Laka said. "We can use the remaining drive machine still
as long, as we carefully that thrust vector, in order to terminate out -"
"I interest, do not do him me not straight!"Johnson gekreischt.
Aarsvold said," engaging drive drive!" branched, like the talent forward and pflog
into the group of the double poppet GT1. The ships Klingon absent-minded around it
like fish in a pond and regrouped after, in order to attack.
"Figure eight sign buckling! Figure eight torpedo launching pad destroys!" Laka, which
was gekreischt as Johnson, pulled the double poppet in an escaping maneuver. The
small talent shuddered of the lack of energy, while Johnson executed the maneuver.
"Hey, take you them simply! This is not a normal SN-6!" Aarsvold said.
"You stop yapping more yer and receive you to operate on this hiding unit!" Kris scolded
it.
"It is totally destroyed! There is no way, which I could receive her, to process again!"
"Any that or distribution to sound -" Johnson stopped the double poppet even in the
time, a series near-surface to avoid circuit breaker disk fire. It turned fast the
talent and accelerated away again.
"Nice movement Kris!"
"Laka thanks!"
"However we go into the false direction!" you added.
"You know, have you right!" Johnson said and got the ship into a fixed revolution.
The machines in the center through clamped.
"You punch it! Punch it!" Aarsvold kreischte.
"I try!" Johnson said and tried to receive the last ounce energy from the small talent
but it did not give way left. The squadron GT1 had appeared again and directly toward
to them had been preceded. Then Johnson received an idea.
"Energy of weapons to drive rerouting!" he said and processed the control desk.
"There is not sufficient energy in the weapon system to turn on -"
"That is not, which I intended," Johnson stared with Aarsvold.
You do not think spoke Laka above of the rear side. "I-hope that which I think, think
you!"
"I am, Laka! Case on!" If this Johnson the program is activated, it had beforehand
input moments. The talent, those forward and, at the same time were varied, the cockpit,
that from the remainder of the ship one separated and flew upward.
"You humans are craaaaaaaaaaazy!" Laka, which were gekreischt as the crew, were thrown
away by the fighter and now accelerated toward to the GT1s with full rate. Even ones
the machines from the talent exploded gave there, transmitting flames in each direction and in destroying the entire squadron. The cockpit germinated a parachute and
swam easily, wekzeugspritze first, down to the surface. While it agreed, Johnson
opened the canopy and looked around.
"Views, how we are alone!" he said to the other two
"Falsely, humanly," said a deep voice from the rear her.
13
"Commander, which extends tachyonfeld. It achieves our position in fifteen seconds!"
Allgeyer reports.
"Backlaterally we away of the Commander, half drive."
"Sir Aye. The field stopped a moving."
"Full impact. They look us up, how?
"It would seem in such a way. Uh-cOh -."
"What?"
"The cruiser moves toward to us at the full drive."
"Do you have it soiled us?"
"No honoured Mr., the unit still hiding functionally. And I cannot obtain a Measured
value on the away team. The cruiser a zerstreuenfeld radiates. Our sensors are useless."
"You stop our position. King, radio Star Fleet for support."
"Commander Aye."
Laka, Johnson and Aarsvold were led away by the cockpit of the SN-6 to the prison
building. While they were away led, tried Aarsvold escaping. The officers shot and
terminated him, while he turned to run.
"It hybrid! Unfeeling, cold weather -" Johnson verflucht.
"Silence!" a Klingon roared. "If you again speak, terminate I they." He knocked its
and rear side Laka with its. "You follow circuit breaker disk me," which it said.
It led it to the prison building, to the very same cell, which had stopped even minutes
of Hwiii, before they received there, but them those did not know, and the protection
did not explain to them. The officer shoved it inside and activated forcefield.
"This is the LAST MARK, which I ask you for this, fish! What is the max. phaserausgabe
Stenos
?"
Hwiii, stopped senkrechte held by a zurueckhaltenes field, stared at it with glassy-shining
eyes and its kiefer closed.
"In order, if you speak not now, possibly some more hours in the prison modify your
understanding! Get it out here!" out, said the officer. Two other Klingons entaktivierten
the field, seized Hwiii, while it fell, and carried it out to the cell.
While forcefield one lowered and weak body Hwiii was inside dragged, Johnson and Laka
both confessed above.
"Hwiii!" Laka squealed with joy.
"Commander! Are you quite quite?" Johnson asked for seconds later, since the officers
left and the field was re-activated.
Hwiii put partly opened eyes. "Good ssssee of the Lak Ka Krisss on its page on the
floor of the cell, its slurred they... again." Which were its speech, but the words
were understandable.
"It is good to see you also Hwiii," of said John on of. "Straight lines case inside
there. I am sure that Caruso and the crew think up any type rescue plan."
At least thought Johnson, he hoped that they were.
14
"Any response already, Commander?"
"None already, sir," King Lieutenant Commander Rachelle answered. It had been over
two hours, since it for support had transmitted.
"You wait a minuzioesen honoured Mr., I receive a response; secured guidance, priority
one."
"On projector!" Caruso said.
The projector activates, showing a picture of the cockpit of an extremely small container
of something type.
"I am a Commander Michael Lorsung and control the U.S.S. Velociraptor
. Star Fleet received your signal for assistance, and they sent me to rendevouz with
you. Stop your position and I couple in their shuttlebay. Lorsung out." The picture
disappeared then.
"Well, we asked for assistance, and I estimated that we received her! Open shuttlebay
the doors and prepare you for anchors. Allgeyer, hold an eye on this cruiser Klingon.
I would like to know, if they open for us with shuttlebay soil. King, Hikahi, let
you meet us our guest. Allgeyer, have you the bridge. Let us go"
Hwiii had been explained to Johnson and Laka history, entered of as it was, of like
it the message had transmitted and like it also from his wires survived.
Johnson said, "I knew that it was not a good idea, to transmit you without escort
ships! Why not I -"
Hwiii interrupted. "You cannot go over blames. It'ssss not your disturbance."
"Is it. If I had thought in front, this would not have occurred ever."
Suddenly entaktivierte and two Klingon of officers went forcefield inside, seized
Hwiii and dragged it out. The field went then back above.
And there was not a thing somehow from them could over it do.
Lorsung and Caruso met privately in the ready for use space of Captain.
"You do not receive injustice to me," Lorsung began, "I are not your support."
"You are not?" Caruso asked, confused.
"Well, I am not, but under any circumstances whole it. Star Fleet just sent me, around
to inform you, what they planned. They get also the Molokai
, Smiley
, Yukon
, Firestorm
and the Lonely
Wolf
. Additionally the Measure
and the Shadow
close are been situated, and it have the option for connecting, if you are required."
"Excellently. That gives us a considerable advantage. Any word on the forces Klingon
within this area?"
"Well, additionally to the cruiser you found, there are at least one dozen attack
cruiser and twice... three times, the number of the Bird of Victim."
"At least we have that, which is represented out. Now there is a further problem;
Captain and the other missing officers."
"Even here for this purpose am I. They have the Firestorm
and the Lonely
Wolf
, which stop away position some kilometers. Their job is to fill the cruiser during
we hang up a PDQ rescue."
"PDQ?"
"Right fast condemns. None one of them last very long against this cruiser. That is,
why we go out inside, receives must, and back received, without burned through too
receive, around dust to lock."
"Sounds like the advantages is against us."
"Well, yeah."
"Tones such as fun!"
15
"Any character of them?" in demand Captain K'maht.
"No honoured Mr., nothing! It is, as if they are even disappeared!"
"No, deceive you! They are here, and hidden! They show up. We must only wait."
"Honoured Mr., surface report that Captain and another dolphin are in the protection
and expecting questioning!"
"Excellently. Continue scans! I would like to know the moment that ship appears!"
"Do you hear that?" Laka suddenly asked Kris.
"Do you hear, what?" he reacted.
"I hear screaming... and which tones as more phaser to fire!"
"Well, I hear not -" Suddenly disappeared forcefield, and by the door Lorsung and
Caruso stepped.
"Hello Kris!" Caruso said and lent a hand to rise in order it to help.
"Where are Aarsvold and Hwiii?" Lorsung asked.
"Aarsvold was terminated, said," Kris, "and Hwiii in the questioning."
"Well, you let him receive us and to out-get hell out here!"
The team knocked out the questioning space door and shot the protection. It seized
Hwiii and, with a person on each page, outside carries for it, where Velociraptor
and a SN-6 waited.
"You receive, take I the line in the RWS gate," said Lorsung to Hwiii and Laka in
the SN-6.
"You hang a hand at this ship of their on one minute," Kris intervened, like them
Hwiii in the fighter helped. "I could take require."
"You are my guest! The thing flies itself practically!" Lorsung said and climbed into
the rear seat of Velociraptor
.
"Joe, can handle you the SN-6 in order?"
"Surely! Let us leave here!"
The two ships lifted the surface of the planet away and go back to Stenos
in front at the full drive.
Johnson, turned in the attempt chair, to ask around Lorsung a question. "So, how exactly
you received behind the cruiser?"
"You take a view!" Lorsung signed to the front side. Johnson turned, during it the
upper atmosphere deleted themselves, and those container of the saw two, which keep
the cruiser filled. Saw like Defiant category a ship and the other one, a Sovereign
category out.
"Who are they?" Kris in demand, how they flew behind it.
"The Defiant category is the Lonely
Wolf
, and the other one is the Firestorm
."
"Well, I must say, do her reliably to us a preference. What is our E.T.A.?"
"Approximately 40 minutes."
"You think that they last those long?"
"Simply. Until they are destroyed, we are half back house."
Fortunately the two fighters formed it back to Stenos
reliably. They coupled and Hwiii too sickbay were gotten, around itself for to interest
its wounds. Johnson, Caruso and Laka met on the bridge.
"The Lonely
Wolf
and the Firestorm
hails. Inform it that we do not need no more their support and that we for that are
grateful, which they gave," to Johnson said.
"Hailing," Laka said. "Captain Roycraft of the Lonely
Wolf
reacts."
"On display."
The projector, that, representing lit up was activated weakly, bridge of USS Lone
Wolf
.
"Ampere-hour, hello Kris," Roycraft said.
"Hello Shaun. I wanted to thank you for your assistance -"
As he spoke, Lone
Wolf
supports a direct hit. The panel behind Roycraft exploded in a cascade of the hot
sparks. Captain looked behind him, then again confronted the projector.
"Ampere-hour, Kris? Would she ask too much, in order to ask your support?"
"Not at all," Kris said and smiled. "How over the Firestorm
?"
"As over it? They are in, like false form, as we are." Then ship Roycraft supported
another hit and sent static the projector during one moment.
"We are on our way," said Kris. It gave the signal to terminate communication to.
"Battlestations! Laka, placed a course for the cruiser, max. warp. Arm all torpedo
containers with marking of fives. All phaserbaenke to standby. Supply phasercannon,
max. energy with energy. Prepare all fighters Amicus for disembarkment forwards. Inform
all being available starships."
"Aye, Captain. Weapon systems, which turn on above, phasercannonaufladung. Course
put inside for the cruiser."
"Honoured gentleman, I am attack cruiser measured value six and the Bird of Victim
fifteen, approach the position of the cruiser!"Allgeyer said.
"You engage yourselves!"
16
"Commander bridging Lorsung!"
"Bridge, this is not the best time, Commander!"
"I know honoured gentleman, but permission required me for removing the Velociraptor.
"
"Granted, but they," gives eight,
"Sir thanks! I do my best! Lorsung out"
Spoke Laka. "Slowing down to the drive. We are come to the position of the cruiser."
"You prepare to uncloak and to the fire on my signal."
"I read three uncloaking union containers. The Smiley
, the Molokai
and the Shadow
, if the Measure
of the high warp approaches, up short rank sensors"
"In order. Decloak and opened fire!"
The Stenos
decloaked and fired on the cruiser. The Smiley
and the Molokai
coordinated attacks on the rear section of the enormous container Klingon, while
the Shadow
took the front side. Relieved, the Lonely
Wolf
and the Firestorm
temporarily away accelerated, in order to determine damage and execute temporary
repairs, before the fight is again brought together.
"Captain, which Bird of Victims have themselves the Molokai
engaged. The uncloaking Velociraptor
, one of them tackling... is it destroyed!" Laka reports.
"The 'RWS gate or the Bird of Victim?" Caruso asked.
"The B.o.p. The Measure
is from the warp pleases and the cruiser approached. Three attack cruiser, move on
paragraph."
"Okay. Direct the warplaufwerk of the cruiser. Prepare before itself to fire phasercannon.
Warn all further ships, around away back EN."
"Captain Aye, prepare, in order to fire!"
"Fires!"
Phasercannon anschielt above and unleashed an unbelievable bang, the even short-circuit
of the cruiser stopped and worked themselves up other one, small message out.
"Which said hell...?" to Laka and punched buttons at their control desk.
"Which it is, Laka?"
"The cannon not even struck the cruiser! It diverted by a small, metallic message...
OH my God."
"What?"
"The Yukon
must have flown to unloading path! It eingeaeschert even!"
"It kidding!" Johnson said with disbelief.
"No! I kidding not!"
"Well, no large agreement. Drive away to fire. Prepare the cannon for others -"
Suddenly uncloaked armada the Bird of Victim Klingon and fired on the Stenos
.
"Varying mains voltage!" reported, on second inbefehl.
"OH No, not again!" King said.
"You do not ensure, I are yourselves sure that it is only... OH OCH-cScheisse!" Caruso
said.
The cruiser was in the process fires just, when the Lonely
Wolf
flew between it and the Stenos
, effectively the shot took and that ship protects. JedochWAR of the cruisers RH targets
and fire again in the position and directly struck the Stenos
.
17
"You refer hit to their forward describing!" Ts'chak
said the tactical officer.
"What is our status?" asked Captain.
"Signs with 78 per cent, no other damage. Cannon is now ready for use!"
"Fires!"
When the second bang struck the Stenos
, half that of control desk exploded and would transmit befehligt flies in each conceivable
direction.
King Rachelle, after in their chair, after it had been back received thrown from it,
reported system of. "Primary signs are not functional! Secondary systems at the full
energy!"
"Johnson to the technique!"
On. "Technique, Takkata jim here, which goes hell?"
"I must back-get mains voltage, NOW!"
"In order, I have my best team on the problem." Sudden struck a third bang the Stenos
. A large explosion and many screams were heard over the loudspeaker and then, Silence.
"Johnson to the technique!" Executing a response. "You do not react please!" Still
no response.
"Laka!"
"Captain?" You asked and around turned.
"I go down there. Allgeyer, Caruso, are you with me. They have the bridge, Laka. Discharge
the squadrons Amicus, only SN-6. If you require luck to me." Johnson rose, referred
the other officers toward to the turbo-elevator, and they stepped inside.
"Good luck," Laka said.
Meanwhile on board the Firestorm
, Captain Kori Prins ran out fast out of options.
The ship shook, during it another hit took. "Sir!" navigation on. "The Stenos
caught officer and the Lonely
Wolf
main damage suffered! And the Smiley
was destroyed!"
The Firestorm
was again struck. Sparks flew and the smoke, that of broken pipes spewed are. "Continue
you to fire! Avoiding sample delta gamma Six!" Prins said.
"Drive machines indirectly! Executing magnetic safety circuits the report, you are
sudden -" The panel of the officer, that one explodes and it flies by air behind
the bridge to send.
"Technique to the bridge!"
"Bridge, report!" Kori cleverly.
"The plasma injectors are fixed! We cannot take no hits, or we solve containment!"
"Backlaterally we away, ensign."
"It does not answer the helmet!"
Prins confessed. "All hands, easiness ship above! Repetition, all hand easiness ship!"
It pausierte. "Computers, placed even destruct, five minutes. Authorization Prins
Theta Theta Six Zero Nine. Marking!"
The "Sequence Destruct activates. Four Minutefifty ninesekunden to destruct," said
the computer.
"In order, you let go us!"
18
"Location back!"
The door to the technique, which had been adhered, was itself opens blown, and Johnson,
Caruso and Allgeyer stepped inside. There were dolphins to receive and the people,
which shoot approximate under the fires and smokes and tried, an influence of the
situation. Those team felt impacts of more phaserfeuer, as they ran into the technique
section.
"Captain!" a dolphin said, how it swam toward to them. It had a large squeezing on
the page of its body.
"Takkata jim! What in the name of the God occurred down here?"
"We lost it almost, when we received hit, that last mark. If it were not for Rapacz
and Moki, will we surely destroyed its!"
"So, which is our status?" Allgeyer asked.
"We lost PTCs, therefore warpenergie is effective -" there was a sudden small rear
side of the explosion far, and a high dolphin whistles one heard. Jim turned during
one moment and confronted it then again.
"- indirectly. And times I do not see this, like we the damage without at least two
weeks of overhauling completely and that repairs will repair." The ship shook violently
during one moment, and were then again constant.
"I was received better back to the bridge. Caruso, Allgeyer, remain here, over to
support."
"Sir Aye."
Johnson stepped on the bridge moments before another explosion, which was torn up
into the Stenos
. It sat itself fast in its chair.
"Report!"
"The mains voltage still, which, which is hiding destroyed unit, is dorsale phaserreihe
off-lines, is, signs down to fifty per cent nonfunctioning -" The Stenos
was again struck.
"You form this 45 per cent!" Laka added.
"And the cruisers?"
"They have support considerable damage."
"You drive away to fire! Were the fighters discharged already?"
"Jonoured gentleman, shuttlebay now leaving!"
Nine small fighters accelerated from shuttlebay the Stenos
and precede for the cruiser Klingon. They broke then above and different sections
of the ship tackled.
"Captain, the Firestorm
discharged its escaping cases!"
"You cover it!"
"Honoured Mr., the warpkern Firestorm
achieves dangerous levels!"
"Backlaterally we away! Warn all containers in the next environment!"
"It breaks!" through.
"All hand bracket for effect!"
The Firestorm
exploded in a lighting up flame of the fire and evaporated half of the cruiser Klingon,
together with one large part of the other forces Klingon and the starshipsmasses
and - the Shadow
. The Stenos
was hardly from the slamming knallstrecke out.
Johnson, thrown from its chair, again hang-eat. "Were the destroyed cruisers?"
Laka reacted. "Honoured gentleman, believes I it not! One evaporated for half of the
cruiser!"
19
On board the Ts'chak
Captain K'maht was thrown against a bulkhead and terminated immediately, while half
of its ship evaporated. Second inbefehl, Commander Em'li, took fast instruction.
"Mistress! All sections aft 473 were destroyed! We have lost all energy aft chapter
445, including the warp and the drive drive!"
"Is the function Hauptcannon still?"
"!"
"Then closed above and you drive away to fire!"
Shaun Roycraft, instructing the Lonely
Wolf
, led its ship into an attack on the hurtable figure eight section of the cruiser.
"You direct all max. phasers to the energy source and the fire and quantum torpedoes!"
he ordered.
"Firing... you refer hit! Their figure eight sign generators are off-lines! They have
themselves engage stand-by-systems!"
"Approximately come for another run!"
"Sir! Decloaking marking zero of stocks 180 attack of the cruiser! They fire!" Off,
the ship took a direct hit to figure eight section.
"Sign status!"
"Figure eight signs are down! We cannot take another hit!"
"They prepare to fire before itself!" Roycraft fastened itself for the explosion,
but to even this moment, decloaked the Atraiou
and fired a solid phasercannonknall at the attack cruiser and evaporated it.
Captain, carrying out he was still alive, asked, "what occurred?"
"It is the Atraiou
! They engaged themselves and destroy the cruiser it!" Applause went completely around
the bridge of the Lonely
Wolf
up.
"We are hailed!"
"On display!"
Captain Blount of the Atraiou
appeared. "Captain! Are you quite quite?"
"Forrest, thanks! I am in your debt!"
"Even cover you me, while I burn hell through from this cruiser! Blount out!" The
projector picture, that was modified to show around the rate Atraiou
toward to the cruiser and repeated cannonknalle, as two additional container to fire,
decloaked and tackled the cruiser additionally.
"The Stingray
and the Introduction
appeared even! They connected the attack!"
"Probably which we wait? Full one phasers, opened fire!"
"With pleasure, Sir!"
20
"The cruiser has substantial damage of its figure eight section," said Laka taken.
"Sign status?"
"Down to twelve per cent. I read three containers, additionally decloaking am and
carry 067 marking 102! They are the Atraiou
, those Introduction
and the Stingray
!"
"You continue ignition samples! Almost there we are!"
On board the Stingray
Captain Andy Gabatino led his crew in an attack sample.
"You hold their elbow above! Direct to scanner and life support!"
"Aye, Captain! Direct hit to the lateral scanning series! They are essentially blind!"
"you drive away to fire!"
The Introduction
formed fast work of several Bird of Victim within the area.
"You use the photons! Do not give them time to hide again!" Captain Jacobson orders.
"Hit on the sign generators of the cruiser! Their signs are down!"
"Captain! They fire!" off.
"Full energy to describing!"
The Introduction
took a direct seins from the cannon of the cruiser, but in its current status, the
bang was not deadly.
"Report!"
"The hit was not at the full energy! We lost even coat and figure eight torpedo! Signs
with 77 per cent and that continue!"
"Fires!"
The bridge of the Ts'chak
was in the chaos. Fire burned completely around.
"Our signs are down!"
"You drive away to fire!" Sudden a loud sound signal sounded.
"Intruder alarm!"
"Where?" Captain asked the responsible person.
"I try to find, internal scanners am damaged -"
Phaserschuss struck over the space and navigation the officer, it evaporating. Captain
Gabatino stepped forward toward to Commander. It pointed its more phaser to it.
"Job steps down!" he required, "or I does not hesitate not to terminate you!"
The commander rose against-striving and stepped then from its chair. Turned Andy and
shot it somehow.
"I know enough, in order to never trust a Klingon!" he kreischte from the chair. "You
saw that I did not have fear, you too terminate, if you do not obey me! Now all vereinigungschiffe
hails and explains to them that you transfer!"
"Communications are down!" mentioned an officer. Annoyed, Gabatino stepped away from
the chair and toward to communications console with large job steps. It shoved the
officer there to the page and punched keys at the console. verfluchen, knocked he
its communication badge.
"Gabatino to Stingray
! Stingray
, react!"
There was no response.
"The completeness of trunk of the cruiser is with five per cent!" mentioned Laka of
the Stenos
.
"Energy up phasercannon! Prepare before itself to fire!"
"We do not have sufficient energy to fire the cannon!"
"It verflucht! Laka, which is the status of the fighters and 'RWS gate?"
"The signs Velociraptor
are down to 39 per cent! Six fighters remain!"
"Verflucht! We lost three! Get us too within a kilometer of the cruiser and max. phasers
and torpedoes of the fire, spread fully!"
"Honoured Mr., the cruiser breaks above! It is lost completeness of trunk!"
"Fires!"
"Is Captain rear side on board?" asked the first officer of the Stingray
.
"No Sir! And the cruisers gone almost!"
"I go there! Inform all ships, in order to stop their fire!"
"Honoured Mr., the cruiser! It explodes!"
"My God!"
The cruiser exploded and would transmit a substantial shockwave in all directions.
The wave evaporated immediately the remaining six fighter Amicus SN-6 and three cruisers
attack Klingon.
"Level nine shockwavekopftext toward to us!"
"You get us out from here, warp nine! Engage yourselves!"
The Atraiou
carried fast down the completeness of trunk of the cruiser.
"Feuerphasercannons!"
"Ignition! Refer hit with all three! The cruiser is -" The Atraiou
was suddenly struck by a substantial shockwave and more rueber the ship struck easily.
The container tilted its footnote in a moved angle, while Blount tried, to recover.
"Damage report!"
"We were struck by level nine a wave! Signs, weapons and drive drive are off-lines!
Peel break up platforms three, six and eight!"
"You receive to repair teams on those platforms! Warn all ships of the wave!"
"The cruiser was destroyed!" Everyone on the bridge calmly from yells of the joy.
Johnson regarded rueber Laka and considered, that it was not lucky.
"Does it give a problem, to Commander?"
"I select up category nine shockwavekopftext toward to us! E.T.A. one minute, fifteen
seconds!"
"Do we have warplaufwerk?"
"No honoured Mr., warplaufwerk is off-line!"
"OH my God"Johnson said.
21
Captain Ross Meyer of the Molokais
had considered the even wave and took avoiding measures.
"You get us out here, warp of one!" out.
"Aye, engaging warplaufwerk!" The Molokai
accelerates away from the wave.
"Are all ships, those are with difficulty accessible from this thing?"
"... the Velociraptor
, to Lonely
Wolf
, Stingray
search-end, and Introduction
are gone to be rejected, has the Atraiou
already those wave passed through, but..."
"However which?"
"The Stenos
still is in the path of the wave!"
To "as long -"
"Fifty seconds!"
"They hail!"
"No wartesir!"
"You bring us, take us back to the Stenos
, max. warp!" out.
"Sir Aye!"
"Jim, I need that warpmaschinen NOW! We have level nine shockwave, that toward to
us are preceded and we must leave here!"
"Sad Kris, does not give it to anything, which I can do! The energy of transition
pipes were totally destroyed, and there is no way, which we around that to process
can!"
"Honoured Mr., the Molokai
is fallen from warp near us!" Laka reported.
"They hail, ask them, to out-get hell out here!"
"Honoured Mr., communications are off-lines!"
"Scheisse, scheisse, scheisse! Have how long we?"
"Thirty seconds!"
"Is there each possible way, which we could do tractor with warpgeschwindigkeit?"
"No! It is too unstable!" officer of the Molokais
said navigation.
"Waiting period! Which, if we could reject ourselves it, over and receive then, them
even the coast along-drive could, to free of the wave front side?"
"She could operate even!"
"You get us in tractor distance! Have how long we?"
"Twenty seconds!"
"This had better work!"
"In the distance, Sir!"
"You lock on! Prepare to take place to reject itself!"
"The Molokai
has closed its tractor light beam on us!" reported Laka.
To "are they doing what?"
"Captain!" Laka shrieked. On the projector they saw the starscape to modify from constant
to the warp.
