The crew are enjoying some dinner as Lieutenant Kaye, Lieutenant Sito, and Lieutenant Commander T'Mir are at their table.
LT. KAYE: So tell us what happened?
LT. SITO: Nothing happened between me and Tyson we just had a bit of an issue that he wants me to meet his parents but I'm not sure if they want their son to marry a Bajoran with so much baggage.
LTCMDR. T'MIR: I don't get why his parents are worried about you and Mister Mitchell getting married.
Then the com activates.
LTCMDR. KAL [com voice]: Senior Officers report to the bridge we're receiving a distress call 
They get up from the table and head out.

LT. KAYE: We're secured from warp sir.
LTCMDR. KAL: Are we the only vessel in range?
LT. SITO: Yes, Commander.
LT. MASON: We're entering visual range.
CAPT. MARTIN: On screen.
Transparent viewer shows a Romulan D'Deriex warbird firing its disruptor blots at the planet surface.
LT. KAYE: Aw man their getting slammed hard.
Sito turns to both Captain Martin and Commander Kal.
LT. SITO: Isn't Kestra IV a brand new colony?
CAPT. MARTIN: Yeah it has minimal defenses.
LTCMDR. KAL: Captain there's over 12,304 people down there men, women, and children.
Captain Branson gets up from the Captain's chair.
CAPT. MARTIN: Mister Mason open hailing frequencies.
LT. MASON: Channel open sir.
CAPT. MARTIN: Attention Romulan vessel this is John Branson Captain of the Federation Starship U.S.S. Enterprise cease fire immediately, or we will respond with force.
CMDR. KAL: John in any space battle how many times do you think that will work.
Then Lieutenant Mason checks his console.
LT. MASON: The Romulan vessel has ceased fire.
CMDR. KALI stand corrected.
Then the transparent viewer shows the Romulan vessel turn around to face the Enterprise as everyone is getting tensed up, as they're seeing the warbird turn.
CAPT. MARTIN [Shocked]: Yeah I don't think that worked.

LT. SITO: That's the panel that caught fire.
She puts the fire out.
Lieutenant Mason checks his console read out on the deflectors. 
LT. MASON: Deflectors down to thirty percent! 
LTCMDR. KAL: John, if we stay in a pounding match any longer. 
CAPT. MARTIN: We lose, (beat) Jamie, can you take us into the upper atmosphere of the planet? Just skim the surface between air and space.
LT. KAYE: Captain, that'll create a lot of friction. With the deflectors low, the atmosphere...
CAPT. MARTIN: Can you do it?
LT. KAYE: Aye, sir.
Captain Martin turns to Lieutenant Mason.
CAPT. MARTIN: Jack prep a payload of torpedoes we're gonna shove them down their throats. 
LT. MASON: Aye, sir. 
CAPT. MARTIN: Jamie go.
Lieutenant Kaye inputs commands into the helm station.

INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE MAIN SHUTTLE BAY
The engineering team are scanning the shuttle as Fleet Admiral Nechayev, Commander Kal, and Captain Martin are walking around.
FLT ADM. NECHAYEV: Captain Martin this is a game changer an actual functioning Romulan shuttle. 
LTCMDR. KAL: Every once in a while you get lucky. It was just floating out there in the wreckage. 
CAPT. MARTIN: Imagine that the Starfleet Corp of Engineering can't wait to take this thing apart and learn how we can get another major victory against the Romulans should they decide to ever go to war with us. 
FLT ADM. NECHAYEV: I'm sure they would but not today. 
She leaves as the pair follows her. 
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE DECK SEVEN CORRIDOR 
Their walking to the turbo-lift. 
FLT ADM. NECHAYEV: Ever since the end of the Dominion War and the Shinzon Incident we've been trying to open peace talks with the Empire, so far they've not returned the favor. 
LTCMDR. KAL: You think they're wanting to go to war with us? 
FLT ADM. NECHAYEV: It's possible but right now they've seem to be recovering from the Shinzon incident, and from what our agents have told us they've got bigger problems. 
The lift doors opened and they enter and the lift doors closed.
CUT TO:
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE CAPTAIN'S READY ROOM/SITUATION ROOM
The trio enters the briefing room and sit at the table. 
LTCMDR. KAL: Are you sure that they're willing to go to war with the Federation?
FLT ADM. NECHAYEV: According to the reports from the crew of the USS Ross, its possible that the Star Empire is going to fold in on itself. 
CAPT. MARTIN: And where did they get the intel from?
FLT ADM. NECHAYEV: A Tal'Shair agent informed them of the situation. 
Both Kal and Martin are surprised by that. 
CAPT. MARTIN: From what I heard is that the Romulan Agent was killed shortly after he tried to get to the Deltan Ambassador on Earth, shortly before the Ross departed from Earth Spacedock. 
FLT ADM NECHAYEV [sighs]: That was a cover-up at the request of the Federation Council he's still very much alive and he's remained under the care of the Ross's chief medical officer Doctor M'Qrell. 
CAPT. MARTIN: What do you need us to do?
FLT ADM. NECHAYEV: We need some information on their newest warbird designs the Kerchan-class vessels.
LTCMDR. KAL: Admiral, there's plenty of debris out there for you to find and get information on their new warbirds.
She looks at Captain Martin.
FLT ADM. NECHAYEV: You're gonna get that information. 
CAPT. MARTIN [Surprised, shocked]: I-I'm going to do what? 
FLT ADM. NECHAYEV: You and someone from Starfleet Intelligence are going to take the Romulan scout ship into the border, and get information on their new Kerchan-class warbirds that have been appearing a lot in Federation Space. 
Captain Martin is a bit unsettled. 
FLT ADM. NECHAYEV: Something wrong Captain?
CAPT. MARTIN: Admiral, with all due respect I don't want someone from Starfleet Intelligence that is seeking glory, I want someone that I can trust to watch my back and not go off and look for glory.
FLT ADM. NECHAYEV: Then who do you want?
CAPT. MARTIN: Lieutenant Commander Kyle Clarkson, Kyle has been wanting to get his hands on Romulan tech for years and this could be his chance to do it. 
FLT ADM. NECHAYEV [sighs]: Alright then Captain.
Nechayev leaves the ready room as John is still unsettled about this mission.

INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE ASTROMETRIC'S LAB
The doors opened and Kyle enters as John is studying the mission briefing.
KYLE: I had a feeling you'd call me up to do this mission with you.
JOHN (smiles): Well you always said that you wished you could get your hands on Romulan tech without it overloading on you, well now here's your chance to do just that.
KYLE: Thanks man Jamie wants you to bring me back in one piece.
JOHN: Well she won't worry I will do just that.
KYLE (Smiles): So what's the plan?
JOHN (sighs): Well we're taking a Romulan shuttle to these coordinates and will meet up with a Kerchan-Class warbird and head to their engine room and gain information on it, and then get out and get back to Federation Space before we're detected.
KYLE: And how are we going to fool their biometric scanners?
JOHN: Doctor Langford will inject us with markers of Romulan DNA that will fool their bio-scanners.
Then the com activates.
LTCMDR. T'MIR (com voice): T'Mir to Martin
Martin tapped his combadge.
CAPT. MARTIN (to com): Martin here go ahead.
LTCMDR. T'MIR (com voice): The Romulan shuttle is ready to launch

Captain Martin is reading intelligence reports from Starfleet while Kyle is jamming out to the music. 
LTCMDR. CLARKSON (singing along): Let the Midnight Special Shine the light on me Let the Midnight Special Shine the ever-lovin' light On me. 
CAPT. MARTIN: Hey, do you mind turning that down, please? Better yet, off? 
Clarkson turns music off. 
LTCMDR. CLARKSON: What are you reading? 
CAPT. MARTIN [re: PADD]: It's the intelligence briefing the my father prepared, you should be reading it too. 
Clarkson works on the console. 
LTCMDR. CLARKSON: I did read it on the way to the border. 
CAPT. MARTIN: Listen to this In their 18th century the Romulans were forced to flee Vulcan due to them not understanding that their emotions is what drives them to be the best that they can be, so the people who marched under the Raptor's Wing fled Vulcan. And settled on different planets one was called Romulus and the other was conquered and it was called Remus and the Reman people were forced into slavery by the Romulans. 
Then the sensors beep as Martin looks at the console. 
CAPT. MARTIN: Its a Romulan warbird Kerchan-class warbird, and she's armed to the teeth like the one the Enterprise fought at Draken. 
LTCMDR. CLARKSON: Their hailing us. 
Martin inputs commands and activates the com. 
ROMULAN COMMANDER (com voice): This is the IRW D'Tar to approaching Scout ship identify yourselves
CAPT. MARTIN (To com): D'Tar we're from the Warbird Kakov requesting permission to dock. 
Both Kyle and John await a response. 
KYLE: I hope you've got your finger on the shields if they decide to open up on us. 
JOHN: I do. 
Then the Romulan commander comes over the com. 
ROMULAN COMMANDER (com voice): Permission granted, you're cleared for docking 
CAPT. MARTIN (To com): Acknowledged D'Tar.

The doors to the shuttle bay opens and Captain Martin and Lieutenant Clarkson are meeting up with the two Romulan soldiers. 
CAPT. MARTIN: Hi how you guys doing today. 
The Romulan guards escorts the two to the bridge.
INT-IRW D'TAR MAIN BRIDGE
Several N.D. ROMULANS attend various stations around the perimeter. A single PILOT sits at a console in front of the transparent viewer. The Commander's station is against the back wall. It is not a chair, but a raised platform upon which the Commander stands. It's encircled by a railing to lean on and several command consoles. The entire room is forward of the Commander. Every inch of the bridge is under his surveillance at all times -- and nothing goes on behind his back.
GEN. TOMALAK: Hello, I'm General Tomalak welcome to the IRW D'Tar.
CAPT. MARTIN: I am J'Tar Commanding officer of the IRW Kakov, (beat) and this is my chief engineer S'Par.
GEN. TOMALAK: What happened to the Kakov? 
CAPT. MARTIN: It was destroyed in battle with the Federation Starship USS Enterprise, we barely escaped with our lives. I was in the bay getting ready to lead the invasion force to attack the colony.
GEN. TOMALAK: Since you have had a close engagement with a Federation ship, perhaps you have information that could be useful to our present mission.
CAPT. MARTIN [surprise]: What mission is that? I'd like to hear about it.
GEN. TOMALAK: All in good time my friends. You two must be tired from your ordeal quarters have been assigned to you both. 
CAPT. MARTIN: Thanks for your help. 
They leave the bridge.

LTCMDR. KAL: Come in. 
The doors opened and Lieutenant Mason enters with a PADD. 
LT. MASON: Tactical readiness reports Commander. 
Commander Kal reads the report. 
LTCMDR. KAL: What about the security details? 
LT. MASON: I have security teams posted on every deck to repel boarders. 
LTCMDR. KAL: Good what about our tactical systems? 
LT. MASON: We've got a full payload of photon and quantum torpedoes and the phaser banks are fully charged and shields are at full power. 
LTCMDR. KAL: Anything on the com from the Captain and Lieutenant? 
LT. MASON: Nothing yet Commander but we're still monitoring communications.

INT-IRW D'TAR QUARTERS
Kyle is looking around the room. 
KYLE: Feels like we're in the brig. 
JOHN: Well be glad this isn't the brig, right now Tomalak trusts us but that may not last long. 
KYLE: So what do we do? 
JOHN: We get the schematics of the Kerchan-class vessels and get out of here, day shift has ended and night shift has started let's go. 
INT-D'TAR CORRIDOR
Romulan soldiers walk by as both John and Kyle are behind a bulkhead and they head for the engine room. 
CUT TO:
INT-IRW D'TAR MAIN ENGINEERING
They enter the engine room and see Romulan officers working at the various consoles as John turns to Kyle.
JOHN: According to Commander Troi's reports schematic database should be right there, I'll try to keep people busy go. 
Kyle goes to one of the stations and gets out a small device and puts it under the station and inputs commands into the console and starts the download. When Admiral Sela enters the room with General Tomalak giving her a full tour of his flagship.
GEN. TOMALAK: As you can see Admiral my vessel has one of the most powerful cores in the Romulan fleet.
ADM. SELA [smirks]: I am impressed by the design of our newest warship, it should put down those disloyal Romulans that betrayed their duty and would rather be with our emotionless brethren.
GEN. TOMALAK [nods]: I agree with you Admiral.
He turns to see John who's in disguise.
GEN. TOMALAK: Admiral, we had to pick up two Romulan officers Sub Commander J'Tar and the chief engineer S'Par they came from the Kakov. 
JOHN: Admiral we lost the ship to a battle against the Enterprise at Kestra IV, they had a very impressive tactical officer and helm officer. We really didn't stand a chance against Captain Martin's tactics. 
ADM. SELA: We need to adjust our plans and J'Tar meet me in my quarter we need to discuss your plans for the next few days. 
JOHN: Yes, Admiral. 
Tomalak and Sela leave as Kyle gets the small device and put it in his sleeve.
KYLE [sighs]: That was close.
JOHN: Yeah, let's get to the shuttle and get the hell out of here.
They leave the engine room.
CUT TO:
INT-IRW D'TAR MAIN SHUTTLE BAY
They head to the Romulan Shuttle till Kyle gets out his tricorder.
LTCMDR. CLARKSON: Whoa, my tricorder is going crazy.
John walks to him.
CAPT. MARTIN: What is it?
Clarkson works at it.
LTCMDR. CLARKSON [confused]: I-I'm not sure but whatever it is the tricorder is picking up high levels of it.
CAPT. MARTIN: Where is it coming from?
Kyle works his tricorder.
LTCMDR. CLARKSON: Two decks down.
They leave the shuttle bay.

Both John and Kyle are walking to the source. 
JOHN: I'm reading high levels of neutron radiation. 
Martin presses the door panel and the doors opened.
IRW D'TAR FORWARD TORPEDO LAUNCH AREA
They see Romulan engineers working on a vicious looking torpedo.
JOHN [re: tricorder]: This is the source. I'm reading high levels of neutron radiation.
KYLE That doesn't look very friendly.
JOHN: It's not. It's a bomb.
Both John and Kyle are shocked at the sight.

Both John and Kyle are in their quarters pacing about.
KYLE: We've got the information John let's get on that shuttle and get the hell out of here.
JOHN: That weapon generates enough neutron radiation to wipe out billions of people. We have to find out what they're doing with it.
Kyle turns to him.
KYLE: And how are we suppose to that?
John thinks.
INT-IRW D'TAR MESS HALL
Both John and Kyle sit with Sub-Commander T'Laya.
SUB-CMDR. T'LAYA: This is very kind of you. I have not shared an evening meal in some time.
JOHN: Well, you've kinda been the only one onboard that doesn't give us the go away look when we walk around the vessel.
KYLE: And we thank you for that.
T'LAYA: You are very welcome.
JOHN: T'Laya, we saw the neutron torpedo.
T'LAYA: Yes, it's a very impressive piece of technology.
KYLE: What does it do?
T'LAYA: It is a prototype neutron field generator. It can destroy all life on a continent in a matter of minutes. Draken IV will be the first test.
Both John and Kyle look at each other.
KYLE: But Draken IV is an farming colony there's only 2 Federation vessels defending the planet.
T'LAYA: An ideal site, yes.
CUT TO:
INT-IRW D'TAR GUEST QUARTERS
Both John and Kyle are back in the quarters.
KYLE: We've got to warn Starfleet. We got to take the shuttle and get the hell outta here.
JOHN: They'd never get to Draken IV in time we're here we've got to do something to prevent this.
KYLE: This wasn't part of our mission, John. We were literally just sent here to make Xeroxes!
JOHN: I know that! But there are over 100,000 people in that colony. We can't just let the Romulans murder them.
KYLE: And how are we suppose to do that?
John thinks.
JOHN: We have to get a message to the Enterprise, (beat) ok here's what we're gonna do you will head to Engineering and gain whatever information you can about this thing see if they're making anymore or if this is the only one they're gonna on something. While I head to the shuttle and send a coded transmission to the ship.
KYLE [nods]: You got it.
The doors opened as they head towards their objectives.
INT-IRW D'TAR MAIN ENGINEERING
Kyle walks into the engine room and inputs commands into the console and gets information on the neutron torpedo, and gathers the data with his tricorder while no one is looking.

She lowers her weapon and does the Vulcan Salute.
T'LAYA: Live long and prosper.
JOHN [surprised]: You're part of Spock's movement.
T'LAYA [nods]: Yes I am I was sent here by the leader D'Tan he took over after Spock was extracted by the crew of the U.S.S. Titan.

Kyle leaves engineering. 
KYLE [to com]: I've got the information on the neutron torpedo so far only one has been made its a prototype, and I'm on my way to the shuttle bay now. 
He bumps into Admiral Sela and two guards. 
KYLE [startled]: Oh Admiral hi there do you know the way to the shuttle bay I'm suppose to meet Commander J'Tar there we're gonna head back to Romulus to get a new ship. 
ADM. SELA: Funny you should mention the shuttle bay we're picking up some rather intermittent transmissions from the bay. 
KYLE: I have no idea what you're talking about Admiral. 
ADM. SELA: Search him. 
The guards searched him and found his combadge. 
ADM. SELA (surprised): Perhaps you wish to explain why you are in possession of a Starfleet combadge. 
Clarkson thinks. 
KYLE [smirks]: I'm part of this cosplay group, and my friends always make me play the human. 
ADM. SELA: A spy! 
The two guards pull out their disruptors and aim them at Kyle as she motions for them to bring him to the bridge.

Captain Martin is tapping his leg. 
JOHN: Come on Kyle where the hell are you? 
T'LAYA: We have to leave now. 
JOHN [frustrated]: No we're not leaving him behind, (beat) I'm going to get him back if I'm not back in time you can take the shuttle to the Federation border you'll be looking for a Sovereign-Class Starship called USS Enterprise. We need to get him back as well. 
John leaves the shuttle with a Romulan disruptor pistol.
INT-IRW D'TAR MAIN BRIDGE
Kyle is flanked by two Romulan guards.
GEN. TOMALAK: Kyle Clarkson rank Lieutenant Commander Starfleet service number C058-7AC98 assigned to the USS Harrison, and friend of Captain John Martin I hope you are prepared to die if you don't tell me where Captain Martin is at. 
KYLE: I don't have a clue what you're talking about. 
Sela walks over to him. 
ADM. SELA: Oh please Commander there's no way you could of fooled the bio scanners on this vessel without help. 
KYLE: If he was onboard this ship he'd be long gone by now. 
Tomalak gets a knife and stabs Kyle in the leg.
