And the rest of it (due to character limits)
On Kerelium 3 (in the mind of Barex on USS Adventurous)...
Madison: Identify!
Henry Jansen: Sensors read Klingon Battle Cruisers.
Madison: Fire, Lieutenant Barex!
Barex: Enemy vessel advancing to our port, sir, training disruptors!
(Adventurous is hit)
Madison: Damage report!
Henry Jansen: Heavy damage to aft bulkheads. Emergency force-fields online.
Main support pylons buckling, emergency pylons in place.
Madison: Return fire!
(Adventurous is hit again)
Madison: Mr. Barex, report.
Barex: Shields at 27 percent, we are surrounded, Captain. Our shields would likely not hold long enough to get away, in order to engage maximum warp without ramming the Klingons, we would need to clear their small armada, while our shields would have collapsed before then.
Madison: Helm, plot a course, attempt to flank their lead ship.
Barex: What is my rank and position?
Madison: Barex?
Barex: With all due respect, sir, that is a serious question, Captain.
Madison: If you insist, Lieutenant Junior Grade, Third Officer and Tactical Officer Barex.
Commander Zeta: See, Barex, this is the pain I can relieve you of, or do I have to go farther back?
Barex: This is not pain, this is simply my past.
Commander Zeta: Let me present to you, the future you have deprived yourself of.
On a Romulan ship (in the mind of Barex)...
Commander Barex: Fire!
Subcommander Zeta: The Enterprise is advancing to 314 Mark 6 port, sir.
Commander Barex: Target their engines.
Centurion Cretum: Direct hit!
On Enterprise (in the mind of Barex)...
Don: Damage report!
Williams: Shields down to 58 percent.
Don: Mr. Jansen, report.
Jansen: Warp engines down, Impulse engines at 50 percent.
Don: Fire phasers!
Williams: Minimal damage.
Don: Number One, program a torpedo spread, target the weakest areas of their shield grid.
Jansen: Aye, sir.
(the Enterprise is hit again)
Samuel: Ahhh!
Don: Fire!
(Samuel is thrown to the ground by an explosion)
Jansen: (looking at his display) Damage control teams, deck 14! (looking up at the captain) Shields down to 35 percent.
On a Romulan ship (in the mind of Barex)...
Commander Barex: Report!
Sgt. Tak: Shields at 69 percent.
Commander Zeta: See?
Barex: It is highly illogical that you advocate for an enemy, also highly illogical that I pursue this future, killing my comrades is hardly an ideal environment.
Star Trek Act 2:
On the Enterprise...
Don: Helm, plot a course, 167 mark 11 and engage at maximum warp.
Samuel: Aye, sir.
Williams: Delay the order, Lieutenant!
Don: Mr. Williams, please explain yourself.
Williams: (standing up) We can’t just leave the members of the away team.
Don: Yes we can, Lieutenant. And take your station, mister.
A few minutes later...
Williams: Detecting energy surge. Authum cloaking device.
Don: Is there any nearby Nebula or Asteroid Field/Belt?
Samuel: An Asteroid Field. 10 minutes away at maximum warp.
Don: Red Alert, engage! Warp 9!
On the Authum Ship...
Lt. Cretum: Commander! The Enterprise is moving off at warp 9.37!
Commander Zeta: Maximum shields. Pursuit course, Warp 12! Keep that cloak online!
Sgt. Tak: Yessir!!!
On Kerelium 3...
Barex: Commander Zeta, I would prefer it if you came over here.
Commander Zeta: Fine.
(Zeta walks over to Barex)
(Barex neck pinches Zeta)
Barex: Mr. Jansen, attempt to shut down or destroy this computer. Mr. Vance, I need you to guard the room, you will be our, in human terminology, scout.
Vance: That’s about right.
(Barex seeks the katra points on the neck of Zeta and begins a mind meld)
Barex: My mind to your mind ... my mind to your mind ... our minds are merging.
In the mind of Zeta and Barex:
Barex: You do not have to kill, you could adopt a peaceful life.
Commander Zeta: Such a life would not ensure order.
Barex: On the contrary, a peaceful life would ensure order. Order is peace.
Commander Zeta: Peace requires allegiance, obedience, and strong leadership.
Barex: Peace requires not complete obedience but general obedience, a good leader is needed in any organization.
Commander Zeta: The Authum can provide all of this.
Barex: The Authum would infringe of the rights of others and attempt complete control of the lives of others, and very possibly, a leader the people would not like, but under the rule of this person, they cannot share their opinions.
Commander Zeta: I will myself to break the meld!
On the Enterprise...
Charlie: No sign of Authum communication, Captain.
Don: Take us in.
Samuel: Aye.
Don: Take us behind that large asteroid and standby.
Williams: Orders, sir?
Don: Battle Stations.
(Red Alert)
On the Authum Ship...
Lt. Cretum: Nearing Asteroid belt.
Commander Zeta: We have to de-cloak for a high resolution scan, but we can search. Pattern Alpha Omega 3.
Lt. Cretum: Pattern AO3, aye.
Commander Zeta: Take us to a small asteroid –
Lt. Cretum: I’ve got him.
Commander Zeta: Charge Plasma Disruptors and prepare to de-cloak and fire.
Sgt. Tak: Aye.
On the Enterprise...
Don: Full shields. Repeat: full on forward shields. Ensign, patch me in on the intercom.
Charlie: Open.
Don: All decks, brace for impact of Plasma on our Deflectors!
(suddenly, the Enterprise’s screens are hit)
Williams: Shields down to 48 percent!
Don: Fire all Phasers.
Williams: They’re cloaking!
Don: Hard to port, Lieutenant: course 315 mark 218. Warp 1 evasive.
On the Authum Ship...
Commander Zeta: Move us 10 romeasures (Authum units) and then cut all power except for Plasma Disruptors as level 3 and Life Support. De-cloak and make him think we’re dead.
Lt. Cretum: All powerplants shutting down. Weapons ready at 1/3 charge.
On the Enterprise...
Charlie: I am detecting an SOS from the enemy starship.
Samuel: Ship dead ahead. All power dead except for emergency.
Don: Shields?
Williams: They’re shields are down. This may be a trap.
Don: Take us in, Mister Samuel. One-quarter impulse.
(suddenly the ship is hit and Charlie is thrown from her console)
Charlie: I’m alright!
Williams: They fired multiple shots. Shields are down completely.
Samuel: They’ve locked in a collision course!
Don: Tractor Beam?
Williams: Offline.
Samuel: They’re weapons grid is down; it was overloaded.
Don: (pushing intercom) Engineering! Emergency hull separation!
*Sotam: Negative, sir. Such would take 5 minutes to calibrate.
Samuel: Collision in 10 seconds: 9, 8, 7, 6.
Don: Now!
*Sotam: Aye
(the Authum ship passed between the separating parts of the ship)
Don: Fire!
(Phasers lance out from both sections and cripple the Authum vessel)
Don: Take us out of here!
On the Authum ship...
Commander Zeta: Damage report!
Lt. Cretum: Primary and secondary power offline, our shields are down, and the weapons grid is fried!
Commander Zeta: Damage control teams to primary systems and emergency power!
On Kerelium 3...
Jansen: I cannot destroy or shut down this computer without a good Photon Torpedo.
Barex: That gives me an idea...
(Zeta wakes up and slaps Barex)
Zeta: Your worst nightmares might make you join me!
In the mind of Barex on the Enteprise bridge...
Barex: Fire!
(the Enterprise is thrown about)
Williams: Deflector Shields holding, sir.
Barex: Target their warp engines and shield generators.
Williams: Targeting... Targeting... Firing!
Barex: Prepare Torpedo spread on enemy engines.
Williams: Enemy shields fluctuating... fluctuating... gone!
(Barex moves to Science station attempting to lock onto Captain Mason)
Barex: Locking on to holding cell. Compensating for particle drift, beam blockage, and, forcefields. Energizing...
(the Enterprise is hit)
Williams: Transporters offline! Shields down to 47 percent!
(Zeta appears)
Zeta: Your worst nightmare. You suppress it, but it exists. Your captain dying.
In the mind of Jansen in Engineering on the Enterprise...
(the Enterprise is hit)
Jansen: (calling Don) Warp containment fields are failing! Shields down to 10 percent and gone!
*Don: All hands to shuttles and escape pods!
(the Enterprise is destroyed by a warp core breach)
(Zeta appears)
Zeta: Your worst nightmare, a warp core breach.
In the mind of Vance on the Enterprise in a hallway...
Vance: This is deck 2. We are being boarded.
*Don: Security teams ready.
(Telarites beam aboard but their first boarding party is stopped)
Vance: Party down.
(the security party sighs but more Telarites kill the party and attack the bridge)
(Zeta appears)
Zeta: Your worst nightmare, the ones under your command killed, your commanding officer attacked. Watch, as your ship is destroyed.
*Williams: Shields down to 68 percent, 36, 4!
Act 2:
On Kerelium 3...
Commander Zeta: How about you, Vance? Have a dream?
Vance: Maybe.
Commander Zeta: Of course you do, now I will show it to you.
On the Enterprise in a hallway in the mind of Vance...
Major Vance: The VSF people are ready, right!
Lt. Jackson: Yes sir!
Corp. Brian: Major, are we ready?
Major Vance: For lunch? Of course!
Commander Zeta: The VSF; Vance Security Forces. All if you join me, Major-
Vance: Lieutenant Vance.
Major Vance: Stop this Romulan!
Corp. Brian: What Romulan?
Major Vance: I don’t feel so well, I’m going to go down to sickbay. Mr. Jackson, you have command of my men.
Lt. Jackson: Sir?
Major Vance: (walking away) You have your orders.
Jansen: Snap out of it!
On Kerelium 3...
Vance: How long was I out?
Jansen: Not important, Zeta is unconscious.
Barex: You talked about a Torpedo, my tricorder reads Uranium. I would like you to load some of this Uranium gel into a Torpedo casing and fire, it needs to have a long range remote so we can get away and detonate from afar.
Jansen: You want me to make a nuke?
Barex: Yes, essentially a Nuclear Missile.
Jansen: I think I just said that. Anyway, except for the remote, I think I can do it.
Barex: We could use one of our communicators.
Vance: I volunteer mine.
On Kerelium 3…
Personal Log, stardate 9421.3. We are working to escape the third planet of the Kerelium system. We are creating a warhead to destroy the Authum.
Barex: Status, Commander.
Jansen: I’ve completed the transmitter and are now working on the warhead.
Barex: Prepare for long range launch. (into communicator) Barex to Enterprise. Please come in. Repeat: Commander Barex to Enterprise.
Vance: Can’t you do this any faster, Mister Jansen?!
Jansen: Show a little more respect to a senior officer, Lieutenant.
Barex: Your emotional responses weaken us which is exactly what Commander Zeta desires.
Jansen: Fine, sir! Fine! You try to create a Nuclear Missile! You to try to destroy the enemy facility!
Barex: You will continue your work, Mister Jansen. That is a direct order. Lieutenant Vance, you will continue to keep guard, that is an order.
On the Enterprise bridge...
Williams: They’re decloaking!
Don: Fire!
Williams: It was just a stray distortion field that appeared to be tachyon. Excelsior is warping out – Saratoga is – Hathaway is leav – Hathaway is gone, sir!
Don: Gone?
Williams: It appears that it was hit with a high-energy plasma weapon that breached their aged shields. They are still a Castredinum model – not the new Diobsum-Obsium mixture.
Act 3:
On Kerelium 3...
Jansen: Warhead ready. The Photon casing has to be specially configured to penetrate their shielding but that would be done in a few minutes time.
Barex: Do everything you can. Mister Vance, how much do you know about creation, arming and firing of Photon Torpedoes. Manual, of course.
Vance: A good amount, not as much as Lieutenant Williams but a good amount. I am your tactical officer during beta shift.
Barex: Assist Mister Jansen. Cooperate and coordinate in all ways.
Vance: You know we loathe each other?
Barex: You are supposed to be able to resist unfortunate conditions, both physically and mentally, as an Andorian. Such feeling against a senior officer are illogical. You will carry out my orders.
Vance: (sadly) Aye, sir.
On the Enterprise bridge...
Don: Send a log buoy to Starfleet Command at Starbase 15.
Williams: Aye, sir, we have emerged from the warp.
Don: Set course for Kerelium 3, maximum warp.
Samuel: Warp 8, aye sir. Sir, we are not engaging.
Don: Why? Just give me the engine room, then.
*Sotam: Engineering here, Captain.
Don: Take us to warp 8. Fine warp 6.
*Sotam: We have to go to warp factor, 2, 3, or 4. The engines are heating up.
Don: Fine, warp 2.
On Kerelium 3...
Barex: Fire!
(the missile hits and destroys the facility.)
Barex: Barex to Enterprise. Beam us up, Enterprise. 3 subjects.
On the Enterprise...
Don: Ready Phasers.
(Yellow Alert)
Williams: Perimeter alert, sir! Authum warbird decloaking.
Don: Lt. Samuel, signal Red Alert.
Charlie: Battle Stations! Phaser Control Rooms, stand by. All stations show ready, sir.
Don: This time, we fire first. Fire all Phasers!
Williams: Hit.
Don: Mister Samuel, take evasive maneuvers and drop shields to beam landing party aboard. Transporter Room, energize!
*Transporter Technician: We got them, sir.
*Barex: No injuries, Captain.
Don: Report, to the bridge, all of you. Raise all shields.
(a console explodes and the Enterprise is hit)
Don: Damage Report.
Jansen: (emerging from turbolift) Deflector System offline, hull breaches on decks 10 through 15, main power offline, and heavy casualties on the secondary hull. Light damage on primary hull.
Don: Fire Photon Torpedoes!
Williams: Miss!
Barex: They are cloaking.
Don: Phasers set to proximity blast. Fire on their last known position!
Williams: Direct Hit!
On Authum ship...
Lt. Cretum: Hull integrity failing!
(part of the ceiling caves in)
Commander Zeta: Emergency Thrusters, take us out of here!
On the Enterprise...
Barex: We got them. The debris we have detected on accounts for part of the ship. They may have escaped.
Don: Learn what we can.
On Starbase 15 in Admiral Jansen’s Quarters...
Henry: Most interesting report, Don. “Henry”? This is an official report. We may be friends, but you don’t go around referring to an Admiral by their first name. These Authum, we must create a defense against their Plasma weapons, and a way to get through their cloak and mines.
Don: I’ll do what I can. But you and your son must work to install these defenses on the Enterprise for testing.
Henry: Okay, future Admiral.
The End
