Rear Admiral Storn, the sector commander on DS-4, knowing the Transwarp experiment is time dependent, refuses the Klingons permission to dock, and puts out a Priority One call for assistance. USS Eagle responds to call. Detecting the Eagle s approach, the Klingon s decide to attack. More Klingon Ships decloak and attack the base. A Klingon disrupter hit on the science module of DS-4 initiates a chain reaction activating the transwarp experiment prematurely.
Power surges to the transwarp gateway systems unchecked.
The Resolution receives the Priority One call and arrives just as the gateway surges. The power surge disrupts the base shielding and the station takes a hit to the engineering sections. Scientists work furiously to contain the power surge but their efforts are cut short as an evacuation of the base is ordered do to an imminent warp core breach. The gateway formed by the linked probes appears to open. The Clark and Eagle move to pick up as many people from the base as they can while the Resolution continues to engage the remaining Klingon vessels.
