Captain Jon Park was sitting in his command chair as the ship exited the starbase. "Helm set course for Gordon's Planet and engage once we leave the area of the Space station at warp 4." Park looked as the Spacebase left his forward Veiwscreen and the open space was all they saw. Park felt the ship enter warp and he stood. "I will be down in the Marine section of the ship, Commander Cohan you have the bridge. Ensign Murphy your with me." Park entered the Turbolift as Ensign Murphy Joined him.
As the turbolift went down he asked his newest Helm officer "So why did you choose the Nevada as your ship, I mean your one of the top pilots of your class. You could have any slot in the fleet including the flagship yet you choose this one?" Murphy looked at him "I am sure they Flagship of the fleet would love to have me but i thought serving on a older if you excuse the expression sir, an older ship would help me give me a deeper respect for any and all ships i serve on in the future." Park liked what he heard but was concerned he had heard somethings about the Ensign in his last year at the Academy.
The turbolift stopped and they both exited he had brought the Ensign for another reason and he stopped at a door, "I have had a Pilots office set up with a small personal holodeck with a new Type 12 shuttle program i want you to run, I want your report directly to me with your findings run program Expanse one and let me know." Murphy nodded and entered the office.
As Park walked to the Marine section of the ship, Park entered and 2 full squads of Marines stood "Captain on the deck." Someone who Park took as the Marine XO said. "At ease, I am looking for Captain Gotha." The man who spoke first pointed to the Briefing room and said, "He is getting the mission briefing ready sir."

The Nevada was now underway, and Seth felt in some ways unprepared for heading back into deep space. There were things on his mind, issues he had to resolve before he could truly devote his whole attention to the mission.
He headed to the holodecks on deck 3. Whatever information this shadowy simulation was wanting to give to him was for the time inaccessible, but he needed to uncover how it'd been deleted. He reached the maintenance hatch next to the holodeck, and a fellow officer walked by as pulled the hatch off to crawl into the tube. He acknowledged the officer with an uneasy smile, "You know how the holodecks are."
Once in the tube, he heaved on the master maintenance panel; it came free after some effort. He accessed the appropriate subroutine, looking at the log details of those who'd accessed the program's narrative mainframe. He blinked in confusion at what he saw.
In the last four or five hours the program's mainframe had been accessed eleven times, by a user whom had masked their ID using a scrambling algorithm. Seth recognised the algorithm's form well, he recognised the muddy tracks it'd left in its data manipulation. It was commonly used in a region on the outskirts of the Federation, among a clutch of star systems, one of which was Seth's home colony.

USS Nevada, lower decks, marine personnel department
The mercenary lowered the PADD stylus on to the table and read over his amendments to the PADD. Duty rosters were tiresome things, but they were something he had to get right if his cover was to be maintained 100%. The marine department was thankfully small, so he would have plenty of time to devote to his true objective.
"Captain Gotha? Excuse me, sir." The mercenary looked up to see Corporal Barker standing at the door to the briefing room, making a salute.
The mercenary returned it lazily. "Yes, Corporal? I'm rather busy preparing our briefing right now." He indicated the PADD in his hand.
"Yes, sir. But Captain Park is here to see you."
Gotha stiffened, flinching slightly at this unexpected news. He cleared his throat and nodded. "Send him in."

James had been standing over one of the shoulders of an Ensign Science Officer when he seen the Captain move around out of the corner of his eye. The Commander looked towards him in time to hear the string of commands given across the bridge.
"I will be down in the Marine section of the ship, Commander Cohan you have the bridge. Ensign Murphy your with me."
"Understood Captain." James said watching as the pair went inside the turbolift and vanished from the bridge. He turned his attention once more to the bridge officer. "What else can you tell me about the Expanse surrounding the planet?"
"Sir reports have been made that it hampers shields we would be vulerable to any damage from another ship once we are inside."
James groaned, "And, I already know that sensors have a difficult time penetrating the Expanse."
"Precisely, however we may be able to modify them."
"Go on I'm listening."
"Well sir, if we scan certain points within it for key sounds instead of objects we could locate a ship."
James scratched his chin for a moment in thought, "So what you are saying is if we proceed with what used to be hunting for submarines like in old Earth days we could pinpoint specific sounds."
"Correct, however we would have to shut down key systems on our own ship so that we don't run into the problem of finding our own signature."
James nodded, "Like our engines?"
"Correct."
He leaned back and tapped his communicator, "Bridge to engineering would it be possible to run on impulse only, and shut down our warp drive shortly after entering the area around the Expanse and Gordon's Planet?"

Dun was sitting in his Engineering office with Bob, getting caught up on what had been going on and going over the last upgrades.
"I really like these....." Bob began to say when he was interrupted by the ships comm system.
"Bridge to engineering."
"Dunowin here, sir."
"Would it be possible to run on impulse only, and shut down our warp drive shortly after entering the area around the Expanse and Gordon's Planet?"
Dun and Bob gave each other a quick glance before Dun replied.
"Yes, sir. Besides, from what i've read about the Expanse, it would probably be a good idea. By doing that, it will might save us from having to deal with any trouble with the warp drive and we can spend more time focusing on the shields and other areas."

Captain Jon Park entered the Marine Captain's briefing room and looked at the Marine. "Captain Gortha, I am the Co of the Nevada Captain Jon Park. I wanted to meet you and see how you were settling in?" Park watched him to see how he reacted to having the Commanding officer check in so fast. Park had read up on his service record when Gotha was going to be placed on the Nevada and the Marine had a touchy past.
<Tag>
"Well if you need any supplies just send me the request, I will see what i can do." Park said. Jon turned and walked out of the Marine section as he did he touched his combadge. =/\= "Park to Commander Draco." The Beta shift security Chief responded since she was just about to come on duty. =/\= "Draco here. Go ahead Captain." Park said to her over the comm. "I would like you to secure the Armory and rotate the Security codes, I have a feeling about a officer who just came aboard." Draco replied "aye captain, right away. I will send the info to our first officer when i have switched the codes, under a security alert as well."
Jon walked the deck until he reached the turbolift to the bridge, as he entered turbolift he knew this mission was going to be odd, he just6 had no idea.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Shuttle NX-676 Gordan's Expanse 1500 meters off the starboard bow of the Optha
Lt.Park sat in the Ops seat of the Class 12 shuttle reading the Shields as they impacted on the shield grid of this new shuttle, If they worked then starfleet can create them for all ships making the runabout class and old type 9 shuttles well no longer needed. Macey was glad she is part of this and she was given the promotion for it. Funny how she and her brother was going the same path in there service record.
She turned to the pilot, "We need to see how some speed will affect the Grid." she tapped the command console and opened a channel to the Optha. =/\= Shuttle 676 to Optha, Request permission to go to half impulse and move to 3000 meters from the ship?" Macey waited a few moments and heard her CO "Permission Granted Mrs.Park, However the first sign of trouble i want you back here." Park smiled "Aye Aye Captain. 676 out."

"Do it then Commander. Commander Cohen out!"
(Tag Dun if any reply)
James smiled down at the console and the officer, "Keep me updated."
"Yes sir."
James nodded and turned around before returning to the center of the bridge and looked out the viewscreen at the stars for a moment. There were just too many secrets going around. He didn't know what to do, but he was certain things would clear up. His gut feeling was that nothing was as it seemed.
"Commander we are approximently thirty nine minutes from the Expanse."
"Inform me when we are ten minutes out given the Captain hasn't returned yet."
"Understood."

Jon stepped the turbolift near his quarters and exited to head to them when he got a call from Ensign Murphy, =/\= "Murphy to Captain Park." Park entered his quarters before he hit his combadge =/\= "Go ahead ensign." Park replied. He was hoping the report he was going to get would be what he wanted. "=/\= Sir, i have run the simulation you wanted, i thing we can modify 2 of our shuttles to this configuration." Park was pleased. "Thank you Ensign please head to engineering and assist Commander dunowin with the modifications. Park out."
Jon changed into a clean uniform and fixed the Pips on his color when he was the case that held the Pips of former CSTO Commander Sharon Wolf, When she disappeared on Parks first mission as CO of the Nevada he felt hurt. True she had been from the Past Captain Kirk's era but still she was adapting to life in this era. Park picked up the case that held the Pips and thought about the mark into Commander Wolf's personal file.
Park went to the door and ran into Lt.Commander Draco and knocked her down, "Commander i am sorry i wasn't looking where i was going." She looked at him "I am sorry too Captain, but i wanted to give you this report. Starfleet has found some Evidence that your sister is safe and on a Experimental ship." Park motioned her into his Quarters. "What do you find commander." Park sat down but asked as he turned to the replicator behind his desk "Would you like anything Commander." she smiled and replied "No thank you sir." Park looked at her "So what did you find."
Draco looked at the Padd and pushed it on the table, "Here sir, just look for yourself." Park picked up the Padd and started to read it, He saw that there was several entry's but one got his focus. She saw it and said "i saw it too sir." She got up and saw the Case holding the Pips with Wolf's Name on it. Not saying a word she said " I will be on my way sir."
Park left with her and headed to the bridge exiting the Lift he said "Report." As he slid into the command chair."

"Captain Gotha, I am the Co of the Nevada Captain Jon Park. I wanted to meet you and see how you were settling in?"
Gotha was standing by this point, panickedly deciding that he better make the impression that would be expected of him. "Captain Park, sir. Thank you, I'm settling in well." He paused, "I wasn't expecting to see you so soon sir, you caught me off guard."
The mercenary couldn't resist raising the matter, seeing that the Starfleet Captain had been so quick to check on him, and he was slightly irked by the fact. The mercenary knew he had to keep a low profile and at this moment he was visibly unsettled. <future tag?>
"Otherwise everything is fine, I'm sure the marines will keep me occupied." He grinned.
"Well if you need any supplies just send me the request, I will see what i can do." The Captain left the briefing room.
'Gotha' took his seat and had to pause momentarily just to gather himself, feeling uncharacteristically shaken by the intrusion. It was unlike him to have conducted his work so unprofessionally. He shook his head, disappointed in himself, as he returned to his brief prep. He then brought in the marine squadrons for the briefing.
* * * * *
Seth's failure to reaccess his holoprogram with the complete narrative had completely put him off. He stormed down the corridor towards his quarters, shrugging off the glances of his fellow crewmembers as they turned to look at him or ask him what was the matter.
He got himself to his quarters and threw himself into the sonic shower, thinking that through cleansing himself with the resonant vibrations he would also cleanse the anger from his mind. It didn't work. He hurriedly changed into a new uniform and thought it best to head up early for his bridge shift.
The matter of the holodeck could wait. However, the implications behind it could not, and now, before he did anything further, he had to figure out who had altered the program, and the reason for their probable origin at Seth's home colony.
"Sir," he strode up behind Park as he reached the centre of the bridge, consoles beeped busily around them as the crew made ready for the nebula, "Permission to use a secure long-range subspace channel, Captain."

James heard the lift doors slide open, and turned around seeing the Captain. He didn't say anything just simply slid over into his own chair on the right of the command chair. He watched as the Commanding Officer sat down in the seat next to him.
"Report."
"We are about ready to drop out of-"
The helmsman pulled back on the controls, "Captain we have arrived just outside the Expanse."
James shook his head after placing it inside his right palm, "Captain, Commander Dunowin is planning on turning off the warp drive. The sensors have been modified to pick up ship-made signatures within the Expanse. I feel that it would be safer to know what might be in there before we enter. As we will be practically blind once inside."

Park had just sat in his command chair and was getting several reports at once taking his first officer at the top of the list he replied. "Captain, Commander Dunowin is planning on turning off the warp drive. The sensors have been modified to pick up ship-made signatures within the Expanse. I feel that it would be safer to know what might be in there before we enter. As we will be practically blind once inside." Park nodded. "Commander access star fleet file 3 Gamma, there is a new sensor modification that command wants us to try."
<Tag Cohan>
Then he took the other reports and said to the officer at the helm, "Keep us 2000 meters from the nebula cloud for now." Park stood and moved to the Tactical station. "Commander Draco please scan as far as you can."
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Shuttle NX 696
Lt.Park sat in the new shuttle and had been looking at the shield grid for over an hour, everything looked good. Now they have to see how it would take a shot from a starship. Park hit the communication console =/\= "Park to Optha.Phase one is finished permission to begin phase two."=/\= Macey waited for a reply when the shuttle rocked by a weapons fire. She checked the console and saw her worst fear The Klingon's have returned, and there attacking the shuttle."

Dun walked around Engineering making sure everything was getting done quickly and efficiently. The bridge had sent down some new sensor modifications and a couple of them called for Dun and his crew to undo some of the changes that they had already made. He and Bob had went over everything they had done and was sure it would have worked. Now, some of the modifications that command wanted them to try were almost completely opposite of what they had done. The CEO wasn't sure if they would even work. But it was his job to follows orders. It took Dunowin and his team almost 2 hours to complete the modifications and he was pleased with this. When the last panel was replaced, he tapped his comm badge and contacted the bridge.
=^=Engineering to Bridge. The new modifications are complete, Captain. If Command figured it right, once we enter the Expanse, instead of being completely blind, we should be able to use our sensors for up to 5,000 kilometers. It's a little close but it would be quicker than the old ping system we had originally made modifications for."

Seth was still going over the conversation in excruciatingly precise detail. She had been short and concise; too much so for his liking, given the information supposed to have been given to him. Apparently there was an agent pursuing him. Or rather, pursuing the information given to him by his shadowy directors - those ragged silhouettes concealed behind their smoky veil.
Luckily, the Nevada had been on the verge of departing Starbase when the agent had struck. The agent - likely some third-party mercenary - was supposedly responsible for deleting the narrative from the holodeck program, so Seth was pleased he or she was off his tail.
He forced the imprinted image of the conversation - the figures and elements of information relating to the whole affair - from his mind. It'd fitted itself to the sensor data he was receiving on the Ops console like some sticky psychological meniscus. A blind was lifted from his eyes: the Ops sensor data resolved itself into something menacing.
"Commander Draco, are you reading this on your long range sensors?" He spoke, looking up slowly to the officer at the tactical station.
"Read what, Lieutenant? Please be succinct," the Commander replied.
"Weapon signatures, from somewhere in the nebula..." Seth's eyes played across his Ops console and his hands followed, "It's hard to pinpoint exactly where from, because the nebula's material is refracting the energy signatures. However, if forced to theorise I'd suggest it's point of origin is quite distant."
"I have it, too," Draco spoke, attracting the Captain's attention, "The signals are continuing. It looks like there might be a battle going on in there somewhere.."
<tag Park & Cohen>
Seth took a moment to survey the command team's response, and he found himself licking his lips. Finally, some potential for action to detract his mind from the 'other' business. Yes, somehow, he suspected that that business might rear its head again sooner than he'd like, but for now he could ignore it. The Wezean Lieutenant got to work figuring out the 'type' of weapons that were being discharged.

"Commander access star fleet file 3 Gamma, there is a new sensor modification that command wants us to try."
"Of course sir." He began to review it on the panel attached to his chair. Then everything seemed to end up upside down after Dunowin's report. He heard the voices from the two at the Operations and Tactical Stations respectively. It wasn't good news either he looked towards Captain Park for a second before looking at them.
"Go to red alert. Continue to try and pinpoint their location"

Captain Park had been sitting in his command chair as the reports of Weapons fire in the Nebula was reported, Before he could get the command out his XO beat him to it and she ship went to Red Alert.
"Helm find the Source of the Weapons fire ad take us in." Park saw the looks from some of the crew. "Park to all hands we are going into the Nebula, there maybe weapons fire coming from inside. I want all sensor stations to report anything no matter what it is to the Tactical station."
Jon looked at the screen as the helm officer reported they were entering the Nebula Cloud.. "Sir we have limited sensor's and sheilds are down by only 15%." The acting CSTO reported.
Park watched as the ship moved in and headed to the report of the weapons fire. "Sir we have a ship, A shuttle by the size of it." The ACSTO reported "Hard to get a full sensor reading it's just outside of the new sensor reading's." Park was wondering why a shuttle was out here in this Nebula cloud, However now wasn't the time to think now was a time to act.
"Helm intersept course, Keep an eye out for the Main ship or the weapon's fire." Park knew something was wrong. Just as the shuttle silioutte started to show a Klingon bird of Brey came out of the dense nebula cloud just above it and fired on the Nevada.
"Fire at will, Disable her weapons and transporters." Park ordered as the ACSTO folloowed his orders, The phaser's fires as at the Klingon Vessal. "I want to know what ship that is, Commander Cohan how old is the hull?" Park asked he thought the markings were one he saw before.
<Cohan>
Park saw the ship's lights dim and the ship stopped moving "Good work Commander." He said to the ACSTO. she reported back "I am sorry sir but they did beam some Warriors over to a vessel 100 meters aft of the Bird of Prey." Park that and said " Send the Marines to the Klingon ship and secure it. Then move us into Transporter range of the Mystery ship." Park stood up " Commander Cohan, Lt.Helacaan your with me." Park mopved to the turbolift and tapped his combadge "Park to Dunowin, Meet me in transporter room 3." Park thought one moment more. "We will need full tactical gear and weapons."

"Aye, sir." replied Dun.
"Bob. I want you to keep an eye on these readings. Any signs of degradation and I want you to remake the modifications Commander Cohen gave us. This new set up just seemed too easy and you know how I feel about too easy."
Dun walked out of Engineering and headed for the Transporter Room.

"I want to know what ship that is, Commander Cohan how old is the hull?"
James nodded before opening the panel on his screen to show the sensor output for the hull markings. "Captain they are maybe a month or two old if that. Sensors indicate they were created by phaser fire."
"I am sorry sir but they did beam some Warriors over to a vessel 100 meters aft of the Bird of Prey." Park that and said " Send the Marines to the Klingon ship and secure it. Then move us into Transporter range of the Mystery ship." Park stood up " Commander Cohan, Lt.Helacaan your with me." Park mopved to the turbolift and tapped his combadge "Park to Dunowin, Meet me in transporter room 3." Park thought one moment more. "We will need full tactical gear and weapons."
James followed him, "Captain I strongly oppose I think you should remain here on the bridge allow me to lead the away mission. If things go hairy on that ship you're too valuable to lose!" James said trying to convince Captain Park to return to the center chair.

James shook his head, "It is also against Starfleet Regulations to allow the ship's Commanding Officer to go off ship into a dangerous situation!"

Seth had headed to the turbolift immediately, before he'd heard Cohen voice his objections about the Captain leading the away team. The Ops officer stood impassively in the lift, his jaw steeled and his index finger keeping the doors open until Park, or Cohen, or both, were ready.
"Are we quite done?" he chortled quietly, and clamped his mouth shut as he received cold glare/s.
They met Dunowin outside the transporter room, and then all of them entered to embark on the away mission to the unknown vessel. Seth turned to the transporter pad; he felt a wave of trepidation wash over him. He realised that Cohen was right. They knew nothing about this ship, nothing about the possible dangers they were immersing themselves in.
They'd barely seen it, its cold lines partially obscured by the nebula's matter and the Klingon Bird of Prey.
On the other hand, Seth considered, his was a duty of obedience, and he felt too apathetic to warn against heading over, especially as Cohen had already done so. "Sirs, I recommend we take our gear from the primary weapons locker," he looked at his fellow officers in turn, before sweeping towards the transporter ante-room. He passed phasers out as appropriate.
<tag Park, Cohen, Dunowin>
* * * * *
The orders had shot through the ship like wildfire. The marines had been summoned; they were to secure a Klingon vessel that'd fired on a shuttlecraft. Apparently, as 'Captain Gotha' understood it, the shuttle they'd come across was of loosely a Starfleet signature, which meant the marines' operation was one of securement and the use of necessary force.
Gotha took Able into the command decks of the Bird of Prey, while Hopper led Baker squad into the engineering areas. As Gotha and a fireteam swept a darkened corridor - sparks flying from a ruptured conduit above - the 'marine' mercenary couldn't help but reflect on this quite 'gung ho' move by the Starfleet Captain. He smiled grimly. Perhaps Park was worthy of truer service. Certainly, Gotha would subdue and capture this vessel for the Nevada.. Then perhaps he would look to use it for his own purposes.
A metallic clang resounded from up ahead, and Gotha and his squad took up cover - just in time for a group of angry and defiant Klingons to come charging around the corner of the corridor ahead. They were hollering feral cries, their eyes fierce with the rage of suns and their Bat'leths held high.
"Fire!" Gotha barked, and the squad took the Klingons down in a flurry of rifle bolts.

James followed him, "Captain I strongly oppose I think you should remain here on the bridge allow me to lead the away mission. If things go hairy on that ship you're too valuable to lose!" James said trying to convince Captain Park to return to the center chair.
Park thought a moment, "I would normally agree with you commander. But in this case if that ship is the ship i think it is it's classified and with out me there...." Park stopped that thought right in it's tracks.
"Commander i can order you to forget what you see and trust you will or i can make sure you follow that order." Park said. "I was a security head for a long time i can defend my self better then most captains in the fleet."
<Tag Cohan>
Park felt the lift move into the lower part of the ship and stopped, exiting he moved left to the transporter room and meet the Quartermaster for his Gear."Sirs, I recommend we take our gear from the primary weapons locker,"
Park nodded to Seth and took the weapons offered. Testing the Type 3 Phaser rifle he grabbed a few recharge clips and a second hand Phaser. Stepping up to the Transporter Padd he armed the weapon and took a defensive stance. "Transport us to the Aft secondary cargo hold."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- U.S.S. Optha Deck 14 lower decks
Park and his away team beamed into the Secondary cargo hold. Park wasn't surprised that no one was guarding it. This area was not considered priority. That was one reason Park choose it for the beam in location. Park moved to the console near the door and tapped in a command no one could see in the dim lit room. The console beeped and came to life.
"From this moment on unless i order it anything and everything you see is classified level 10. Omega clearance only." Park hopped his point was clear Omega clearance meant no trace was to be returned to your ship all tricorders were to be delete as if they were brand new and no personal logs or reports were to refer to the ship they were on.
(Tag All)
Park looked at the console and saw they had nothing on ships sensors. "This ship is an experimental starship, Quantum slipstream drive, To'than type shield grid that makes them operate in a nebula like they would in normal space." Park added the one thing the all wanted to know "They also have a variant of the a romulan sensor system."
Park saw the console flash and 4 Klingon's where heading in there direction. "We need to get to the bridge. If any crew is alive they would be there."

Impostor Marine Captain Gotha, aboard the Bird of Prey
After fighting a running battle with the few Klingons that offered real resistance, Gotha and his squad finally reached the bridge.
It was abandoned. Sparks flew sporadically from a number of the consoles, the emergency lights were on, and a fire was developing on the far side near the viewscreen.
"I had no idea we did this much damage..." Corporal Barker looked around as the squad moved forwards, kicking away a Dk'tagh dagger that'd been left on the floor. Gotha watched the hand-weapon slide across the floor; he found it surprising that a Klingon would leave so hastily as to forget his weapon.
"Secure the consoles; check the ship's status," he ordered. The marines went to do his bidding. Gotha himself went gingerly for the angular command chair. A black-gloved hand caressed the chair's hard edges; Gotha sighed, experiencing the temptation of greater power, and started sitting down.
"Captain Gotha, I'm afraid we've got trouble." Barker's voice sounded edgy, "I know why the bridge was abandoned. The Klingons have set the self-destruct."
"What?" Gotha was on his feet. "Override now." Panic and unreasoned survivalist instinct kicked in; Gotha suddenly felt very much like the employed mercenary he actually was. He didn't want to be here. He didn't belong here. None of this was part of his mission to apprehend Lieutenant Helacaan.
Barker was almost chuckling. "I would if I could, sir, but I have no idea - in fact, none of us have any idea - how to operate these Klingon systems."
No... No! Gotha was well and truly panicked. This ship was to be his; damn its importance or otherwise to Captain Park. The mercenary didn't want to lose it. "How long do we have?" he asked.
"At least five minutes, but otherwise I have no idea." Barker shook his head absently.
"Stop saying that," Gotha said. "Let me see." He walked to the master operations console, his panic well-hidden under a guise of professionalism that came from many years of undercover work conducted for criminals. He looked at the screen and saw they were right. This was the universally recognised self-destruct sequence.
"Sir!" It was the squad's Sergeant - Hyalir - who was at the back of the bridge by the tactical station.
Gotha found himself getting angry, "Yes?!"
"According to this, there are at least three more Klingon ships on the other side of the nebula."
"Is that confirmed."
"No, sir," Hyalir shook his head, looking back at the red and gold display with its fuzzy symbols.
"Very well. Let me have a comm channel." The squad's engineer helped patch him through to the Captain of the Nevada, whatever his current location. "Captain Park, this is Marine Captain Gotha. We have secured the Klingon ship's bridge. However, the Klingons have set the ship's self destruct. Please advise. Also, we have unconfirmed readings of more Klingon ships on the other side of the nebula."

Cohen understood what the Captain was saying and simply nodded. Noting in the back of his mind that if anything went wrong he would give the order to return to the Nevada. He had a job to do, protect his Captain and that was what he would see through to the end. As the effects of the transporter wore off he was finally able to see the Federation starship that they'd beamed onto. He looked around before digging for his tricorder.
"From this moment on unless i order it anything and everything you see is classified level 10. Omega clearance only." Park hopped his point was clear Omega clearance meant no trace was to be returned to your ship all tricorders were to be delete as if they were brand new and no personal logs or reports were to refer to the ship they were on.
"Understood Captain." James responded as he programmed the tricorder so that everything would delete upon departure from the ship. He began to scan searching for any traces that seemed out of place.
"This ship is an experimental starship, Quantum slipstream drive, To'than type shield grid that makes them operate in a nebula like they would in normal space." Park added the one thing the all wanted to know "They also have a variant of the a romulan sensor system."
Park saw the console flash and 4 Klingon's where heading in there direction. "We need to get to the bridge. If any crew is alive they would be there."
"Captain all the tricorder is reading is faint lifesigns. Some are Klingon yes, but the others are..." He paused for a second, "I have two humans and a bolian. Nothing else. And, the fluxuations are preventing me from determining their exact location." It was then that a disruptor bolt streaked down the passageway. He ducked just in time taking cover and drawing his phaser before placing the tricorder back on his hip. "Sir, I can hold them off long enough for you guys to head for the bridge the turbolife is precisely forty clicks behind us."

"Captain Park, this is Marine Captain Gotha. We have secured the Klingon ship's bridge. However, the Klingons have set the ship's self destruct. Please advise. Also, we have unconfirmed readings of more Klingon ships on the other side of the nebula."
Park tapped his combadge =/\= " Captain get your men off that ship and have the Nevada Raise her Shields, Tractor the Klingon ship out of the Nebula if possible. Park out."
Jon then looked at his officers as Commander Cohan looked at him, "Commander i would say one of us is need back on our ship, since this ship is classified i would say that makes you the one."
"Captain all the tricorder is reading is faint lifesigns. Some are Klingon yes, but the others are..." He paused for a second, "I have two humans and a bolian. Nothing else. And, the fluxuations are preventing me from determining their exact location." It was then that a disruptor bolt streaked down the passageway. He ducked just in time taking cover and drawing his phaser before placing the tricorder back on his hip. "Sir, I can hold them off long enough for you guys to head for the bridge the turbolift is precisely forty clicks behind us."
"Understood then get yourself back to the Nevada." Park checked the weapons level on his Phaser and moved to the door "The rest of us will head to the turbolift. Don't trust your sensors, Commander good luck."
They started to move and disruptor blasts flew over there heads. Park with his other two officers watched as Cohan provided cover, They dashed to the turbolift and Jon was happy when turbolift doors opened with out any trouble. Park went into the lift and they took it to the Bridge. When the door opened they saw 2 Klingons holding weapons on three Starfleet officers. Park motioned for seth and dun to move against the wall and slid closer. Park aimed his Phaser and with one signal to him men took out the two klingons at the same time.
The officers stood and he saw a Commander and two Lieutenant Junior Grade. He moved to them "Captain Jon Park from the Nevada." Park watched as one officer breathed in a sigh of relief "Hello brother." Jon saw one of the Lieutenant Junior Grade turn around and he saw his sister " Macey!!!" Jon held back this wasn't the time "Where is your Commanding officer?" Park was sure a Commander wasn't the CO of a classified vessel.
The young officer looked at them all and Macey looked away, Jon looked at her as Dun and Seth made sure the ship was ok." Macey who is your CO?" The Commander looked at her with that don't say a work that's an order look. Park moved to the Ready room door and was about to press the chime when the Commander said "She doesn't want to be interrupted Captain." Park turned around and saw Macey move away, she knew how he felt about people under him giving him orders. "Excuse me Commander i think the trauma has gotten to you, If you have forgotten i outrank you." Park didn't hear the Ready room doors open but when he heard " you may out rank him but not ME Captain." The look on Dun and Seth's respective faces were priceless as Jon turned around and looked into the eye's of Admiral Katheryn Janeway formally of the U.S.S Voyager.

James nodded, "That is understood Captain." He wanted to protest, but Dunowin and Seth would protect the Captain. James didn't know them well, but he had faith in the both of them. He heard their footsteps as he spun the corner and opened fire. Grunting and something hitting the deck echoed through the passageway.
But, he didn't have much time to be proud of himself. He tapped his communicator, "Commander Cohen to Nevada Bridge. Do you have a positive lock on myself and the other three lifesigns in my area?"
=^=Yes Commander your signal and three others?=^=
"Good, beam the three lifesigns to our brig." He responded as he appeared around the corner again. All three vanished in the trickling effect of the transporter. "Lock onto my signal and beam me directly to the bridge." He too felt the feeling of his atomic particles being disassembled and soon the bridge cleared in front of him.
"Ensign you are relieved!" He announced as the flight controller nodded and took his seat behind the helm. Commander Cohen sat down in the center chair this time without Park being on board. He looked around, "Once Captain Gotha is on board I want the shields powered to full, and the Marine Captain on the bridge."
"Yes sir."

Dunowin couldn't believe his eyes. He had only read about Admiral Janeway in the academy. Now she was standing across the bridge from him on a classified vessel. A vessel that he would love to get a better look at but didn't have the clearance. And Captain Parks' sister was here. This was getting wierd. Before anyone else could speak, there was a beep on thte console nearest Dun. Out of habit, he glanced down at it.
"Sir." he said addressing his CO. "The sensors are showing four Klingon vessels on an intercept course. Orders?"

Seth followed the Captain as they retreated to the turbolift, sharp thoughts whirling inside his head. Apparently then, this ship was classified. He had learnt that Park had withheld information about the ship from the senior officers, but Seth understood that COs often had to keep secrets from their crews. This was no different.
They took the bridge in short order, the Klingons being phasered to the deck by Park. Seth came to a halt by what he assumed was the Ops console and he took a breath; Dunowin and the Captain headed down to the command area to greet the liberated Starfleeters.
He surveyed the console, trying to close his mind off from the fast-enveloping shock of Park meeting his sister, and the sudden presence of the fabled Admiral Janeway.
"Confirmed," he said, as Dunowin reported the Klingon ships' presences. His brows furrowed as he read the data on the console below, and his voice came out stuffy and scratched. "Three Birds of Prey and one Vor'cha attack cruiser. They are hailing."
At that moment the top-secret ship's bridge shook, but it didn't feel like weapons fire.

Marine Captain Gotha
The green uniformed marine soldiery had bolted off the bridge, and through the ship to the nearest beam-points, as soon as their Captain had reluctantly given that order. Gotha was the last to leave the bridge, cursing desperately under dark eyes as he was forced to abandon the vessel he would've claimed.
Two minutes later he was entering another bridge; that of the Nevada. His eyes immediately locked on the viewscreen, displaying the stricken Bird of Prey and the roiling nebula in the background, as well as the unknown Starfleet ship that was in frighteningly close proximity to the Klingon craft. "Commander! I recommend we tractor that ship away before it blows and ignites the gases in the nebula." The man whom Gotha assumed was the XO responded as if he knew.

He marched to the command arena, feeling that he was starting to play the responsible role of the staff member rather well. Of course, he couldn't become too distracted. This would only end once he was face to face with Seth Helacaan; where he could find out what the man knew, and what it would take to stop him.
Coming to stand next to Cohen, he glanced at the tactical console that was just to his right. "As my Sergeant thought, there are more Klingon vessels. What happened over there, sir?" he asked the Commander.

"Commander! I recommend we tractor that ship away before it blows and ignites the gases in the nebula."
James heard the Marine Captain say from where James sat in the center chair. "Shields up!" He ordered, before looking towards the Marine Captain and his suggestion, "Noted Mister Gotha, however I have a better idea." He said with a smirk, "Ensign would it be possible to push the Klingon Bird of Prey towards that Klingon battle group?"
"With the proper shield harmonics sir we could do that, but then the Nevada may not be able to get out of the way before the Klingon ship is destroyed."
"Lock our tractor beam onto it and swing us hard to port." He said sitting back in the chair that would at least push the Klingon ship far enough away as to cause only minimal damage to the ships in the area. He watched on the screen as the Klingon ship was removed from them by a few thousand kilometers.
"As my Sergeant thought, there are more Klingon vessels. What happened over there, sir?"
"That isn't relavant Mister Gotha." James responded before sitting up straight. If this turned into a shooting match it wouldn't fair too well as the Nevada was outgunned. And, he lacked the knowledge of the weapons capabilities on the other ship. Where is a deathray cannon when you need one? He mused with a snicker before leaning forward. "Captain Gotha prepare a boarding party we may need to take one of those ships."

James knew that he was with the junior officers and deputy department heads while the rest of the senior staff including the Captain was on the other ship. "Time table until the warp core breach?"
"Thirty five seconds Commander." The officer behind the Operations console responded.
Perfect. He thought to himself, "Go to yellow alert!" He said, "Put us between the Klingon battle group and the other Federation vessel. Move the forward portion of the ship down precisely a quarter degrees. Raise shields, power up weapons. Can we patch into Captain Park's communicator?"
"Yes sir."
"Do it." He said before waiting several seconds, "Captain Park the Klingon bird of prey's engines are going to breach in 20 seconds. We are in position to protect you, but I don't know how long we can hold them off if this becomes a shooting match. I hope you have experience in diplomacy, otherwise this won't end well."
