INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE MESS HALL
The crew are enjoying some dinner as Lieutenant Carlson, Lieutenant Smith, and Lieutenant Commander T'Shara are at their table. 
LT. CARLSON: So tell us what happened? 
LT. SMITH: Nothing happened between me and Tyson we just had a bit of an 
issue that he wants me to meet his parents. 
LTCMDR. T'SHARA: Logic dictates that you should visit his parents I met Steven's parents the experience was strange but logical. 
LT. SMITH: I guess you're right T'Shara. 
Then the com activates. 
CMDR. IVANOVA [com voice]: Senior Staff report to the bridge we've received a distress call
They leave the mess hall.

Enterprise emerges from warp.
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE MAIN BRIDGE
LT. CARLSON: We're secured from warp sir.
LTCMDR. IVANOVA: Are we the only vessel in the system?
LTCMDR. T'SHARA: Yes, Commander.
CAPT. BRANSON: Where's the attacking vessel?
LTCMDR. T'SHARA: In geo orbit of the planet.
CAPT. BRANSON: On screen.
Transparent viewer shows the planet as well as a Klingon vessel.
LT. MITCHELL: I thought we saw the last of them?
CAPT. BRANSON: I had the same thought as well.
Lieutenant Smith turns from her station.
LT. SMITH: Isn't Kestra IV a brand new colony?
CAPT. BRANSON: Yeah it has minimal defenses.
CMDR. IVANOVA: Captain there's over 12,304 people down there men, women, and children.
Captain Branson gets up from the Captain's chair.
CAPT. BRANSON: Julia, open hailing frequencies.
Lieutenant Smith works at the console.
LT. SMITH: Channel opened sir.
CAPT. BRANSON: Attention Klingon vessel this is John Branson Captain of the Federation Starship U.S.S. Enterprise cease fire immediately, or we will respond with force.
CMDR. IVANOVA: John in any space battle how many times do you think that will work.
Then Lieutenant Mason checks his console.
LT. MASON: The Klingon vessel has ceased fire.
LT. CARLSON: I guess we're mistaken.
Then the transparent viewer shows the Klingon vessel turn around to face the Enterprise as everyone is getting tensed up, as they're seeing the warbird turn.
CAPT. BRANSON [Shocked]: Yeah I don't think that worked.

Lieutenant Mason checks his console read out on the deflectors. 
LT. MASON: Deflectors down to thirty percent! 
CMDR. IVANOVA: John, if we stay in a pounding match any longer. 
CAPT. BRANSON: We lose, (beat) Kara, can you take us into the upper atmosphere of the planet? Just skim the surface between air and space.
LT. CARLSON: Captain, that'll create a lot of friction. With the deflectors low, the atmosphere...
CAPT. BRANSON: Can you do it?
LT. CARLSON: Aye, sir.
Captain Branson turns to Lieutenant Mason.
CAPT. BRANSON: Jack prep a payload of torpedoes we're gonna shove them down their throats.

CAPT. BRANSON: Hail the colony. 
LT. SMITH: They're responding now sir.
CAPT. BRANSON: Kestra IV colony this is John Branson Captain of the Federation Starship USS Enterprise, what's your status? 
The viewer changed to the colony. 
MINING CHIEF LEIDECKER [viewer]: Enterprise thank god that you're here we thought we were goners, we got hit hard dozens of causalities. Nineteen people confirmed dead we could use some help down here
CAPT. BRANSON: Standby we're sending someone down to help.

The Enterprise is next to the U.S.S. Olympia a Federation-Class Dreadnought.
INT-U.S.S. ENTERPRISE MAIN SHUTTLE BAY
The engineering team are scanning the shuttle as Fleet Admiral Ozawa, Commander Ivanova, and Captain Branson are walking around.
FLT ADM. OZAWA: Captain Branson this is a game changer an actual functioning Klingon shuttle. 
CMDR. IVANOVA: Every once in a while you get lucky. It was just floating out there in the wreckage. 
CAPT. BRANSON: 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 Klingon should they decide to ever go to war with us. 
FLT ADM. OZAWA: 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. OZAWA: Ever since the first Federation-Klingon War of the late 2250s we've been trying to open peace talks with the Empire, so far they've not returned the favor. 
CMDR. IVANOVA: You think they're wanting to go to war with us? 
FLT ADM. OZAWA: It's possible. 
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. 
FLT ADM. OZAWA: We need some information on their newest warbird designs the K'tinga-class vessels.
CMDR. IVANOVA: Admiral, there's plenty of debris out there for you to find and get information on their new warbirds.
She looks at Captain Branson.
FLT ADM. OZAWA: You're gonna get that information. 
CAPT. BRANSON [Surprised, shocked]: I-I'm going to do what? 
FLT ADM. OZAWA: You and someone from Starfleet Intelligence are going to take the Klingon scout ship into the border, and get information on their new K'Tinga-class warbirds that have been appearing a lot in Federation Space. 
Captain Branson is a bit unsettled. 
FLT ADM. OZAWA: Something wrong Captain?
CAPT. BRANSON: 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. OZAWA: Then who do you want?
CAPT. BRANSON: Lieutenant Commander Kyle Clarkson, Kyle has been wanting to get his hands on Klingon tech for years and this could be his chance to do it. 
FLT ADM. OZAWA [sighs]: Alright then Captain.
Ozawa 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 Klingon 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 Klingon shuttle to these coordinates and will meet up with a K'Tinga-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: Steven, will inject us with markers of Klingon DNA that will fool their bio-scanners.
Then the com activates.
LTCMDR. T'SHARA [com voice]: T'Shara to Branson
John presses the com panel.
CAPT. BRANSON [to com]: Branson here.
LTCMDR. T'SHARA [com voice]: We're approaching the border

Captain Branson 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. BRANSON: Hey, do you mind turning that down, please? Better yet, off? 
Clarkson turns music off. 
LTCMDR. CLARKSON: What are you reading? 
CAPT. BRANSON [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. BRANSON: Listen to this In their 18th century the Klingon Empire was created by Kahless after he defeated Mokar and his forces. 
Then the sensors beep as Branson looks at the console. 
CAPT. BRANSON: Its a Klingon warbird K'Tinga-class warbird, and she's armed to the teeth like the one the Enterprise fought at Kestra. 
LTCMDR. CLARKSON: Their hailing us. 
Branson inputs commands and activates the com.
CAPT. KRUGE [com voice]: This is the Imperial cruiser IKS Vorth Identify yourselves
JOHN [to com]: We're from the IKS Kakov and are requesting permission to dock.
Both Kyle and John await a response. 
KYLE: I hope you've got your finger on the deflectors if they decide to open up on us. 
JOHN: I do. 
Then Kruge speaks.
CAPT. KRUGE [com voice]: Permission granted, you're cleared for docking 
CAPT. BRANSON [to com]: Acknowledged Vorth. 
Branson inputs commands into the helm.

The Vorth is at high warp.
INT-IKS VORTH MAIN BRIDGE
Several N.D. KLINGONS 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 her back.
CAPT. KRUGE: Greetings I am Captain Kruge.
JOHN: Greetings I am K'Nar and this is R'Kar.
CAPT. KRUGE: What happened to the Kakov?
LTCMDR. CLARKSON: She was destroyed in battle by the Enterprise.
Captain Kruge snarls at the name of the Enterprise.
CAPT. KRUGE: Captain Branson he has interfered in my plans for the last time the next time I see him he'll suffer greatly!
CMDR. TORG: Strange that you are the only two who survived.
JOHN: I was in the bay getting ready to lead the invasion force to attack the colony.
KYLE: I was checking the shuttle's systems for the invasion force so it wouldn't crash or burn up in the atmosphere.
CAPT. KRUGE: Since you have had a close engagement with a Federation ship, perhaps you have information that could be useful to our present mission.
JOHN: What mission would that be Captain?
CAPT. KRUGE: All in good time my friends. You two must be tired from your ordeal quarters have been assigned to you both. 
JOHN: Thanks for your help. 
They leave the bridge.
EXT-FEDERATION-KLINGON NEUTRAL ZONE BORDER
The Enterprise enters formation of the Federation taskforce that's awaiting for the arrival of the strike team from their mission.

Commander Ivanova is behind the desk reviewing ship status reports as the doors chimed.
CMDR. IVANOVA: Come.
LT. MASON: Tactical readiness reports Commander. 
Commander Ivanova reads the report. 
CMDR. IVANOVA: What about the security details? 
LT. MASON: I have security teams posted on every deck to repel boarders. 
CMDR. IVANOVA: Good what about our tactical systems? 
LT. MASON: We've got a full payload of photon torpedoes and the phaser banks are fully charged and deflectors are at full power. 
CMDR. IVANOVA: Anything on the com from the Captain and Commander? 
LT. MASON: Nothing yet Commander but we're still monitoring communications.

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 Kruge trusts us but that may not last long. 
KYLE: So what do we do? 
JOHN: We get the schematics of the K'Tinga-class vessels and get out of here, day shift has ended and night shift has started let's go. 
INT-IKS VORTH CORRIDOR
Klingon soldiers walk by as both John and Kyle are behind a bulkhead and they head for the engine room. 
INT-IKS VORTH MAIN ENGINEERING
They enter the engine room and see Klingon officers working at the various consoles as John turns to Kyle.
JOHN: According to the schematics the database should be right here.
They walk over to one of the consoles and John gets to work and gets out a small device and attaches it underneath the console.
KYLE; How long is this going to take?
JOHN: Not sure they weren't very specific on the download time just keep watch.
Kyle goes back to keep watch as John continues his work when Captain Kruge is escorting Chancellor L'Rell.
CAPT. KRUGE: As you can see Chancellor the K'Tinga-class cruisers are more then a match for Starfleet's heavy cruiser and superior to the D7-class battle cruisers.
CHANCELLOR L'RELL: I am impressed by your determination to prove the worth of these vessels Captain.
CAPT. KRUGE: And hope to one day lead them into glorious battle against the Federation.
L'Rell knows that the Organians will intervene if they attempt to wage war against the Federation.
CHANCELLOR L'RELL: I am afraid that glorious battle will have to come another day.
Kruge turns to her.
CAPT. KRUGE: But Chancellor we must battle the Federation and defeat them they embarrassed us in the first war, killed one of our most noble leaders T'Kuvma in cold blood!
L'Rell raises her hand up.
CHANCELLOR L'RELL: We must not forget that I brought this Empire back together the way that our most noble figure Kahless the Unforgettable made it and if I say we are not going to risk upsetting the Organians then that is what we will not do am I clear Captain Kruge?
Kruge wants to press further but knows his place.
CAPT. KRUGE: Yes madam Chancellor.
L'Rell leaves the engine room as both John and Kyle sneak out of it.
INT-IKS VORTH CORRIDOR
JOHN: That was close.
KYLE: Too close.
JOHN: Let's get to the shuttle and get out of here.
They head to the shuttle bay.
CUT TO:

They head to the Klingon shuttle till Kyle gets out his tricorder.
LTCMDR. CLARKSON: Whoa, my tricorder is going crazy.
John walks to him.
CAPT. BRANSON: 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. BRANSON: Where is it coming from?
Kyle works his tricorder.
LTCMDR. CLARKSON: Two decks down.
They leave the shuttle bay.
INT-IKS VORTH CORRIDOR
Both John and Kyle are walking to the source. 
JOHN: I'm reading high levels of neutron radiation. 
Branson presses the door panel and the doors opened.
INT-IKS VORTH FORWARD TORPEDO LAUNCH AREA
They see Klingon 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-IKS VORTH MESS HALL
John and Kyle sit with K'Dar.
K'DAR: 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.
K'DAR: You are very welcome.
JOHN: K'Dar, we saw the neutron torpedo.
K'DAR: Yes, it's a very impressive piece of technology.
KYLE: What does it do?
K'DAR: It is a prototype neutron field generator. It can destroy all life on a continent in a matter of minutes. Gamma Hydra IV will be the first test.
Both John and Kyle look at each other.
KYLE: But Gamma Hydra IV is an farming colony there's only 2 Federation vessels defending the planet.
K'DAR: An ideal site, yes.
JOHN: But Chancellor L'Rell just told the Captain that he will not engage with the Federation to anger the Organians, he is risking his commission and his life.
K'DAR: Then it's how it will be.
Both John and Kyle look at each other.

INT-IKS VORTH 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 Gamma Hydra 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 Klingons 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've got. 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-IKS VORTH 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 checks and reports.
LT. SMITH: It's from the Captain.
CMDR. IVANOVA: Let's hear it.
She inputs commands into the communications console.

L'Rell still has the disruptor trained on John.
CHANCELLOR L'RELL: I will not ask again who are you!?
JOHN: Alright, I'm not K'Nar my name is John Branson commanding officer of the Federation Starship USS Enterprise, me and one other person has been sent here to get information on the K'Tinga-class vessels. Till we seen the really rather large neutron torpedo in the upper launcher. 
She lowers her disruptor as it powers down.
L'RELL: I am unware of this neutron torpedo but I believe you Starfleet gave me my honor back and helped me restore my people to the Empire that Kahless pledged his life to creating and forging.
JOHN: How do I prevent it from launching?
L'Rell looks at him.
L'RELL: It's impossible it can only be accessed from the bridge.
Then John's communicator beeped.
CAPT. BRANSON [to com]: Branson here.
LTCMDR. CLARKSON [com voice]: I've got the information on the neutron torpedo so far only one has been made its a prototype

He bumps into Commander Torg.
KYLE: Oh Commander Torg hi how you doing?
CMDR. TORG: I am well.
KYLE: I was just meeting up with K'Nar we're going to Kronos to get a brand new vessel.
CMDR. TORG: 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. 
CMDR TORG: Search him.
The guards search him and found his communicator.
CMDR. TORG (surprised): Perhaps you wish to explain why you are in possession of a Starfleet communicator. 
Clarkson thinks. 
KYLE [smirks]: I'm part of this cosplay group, and my friends always make me play the human. 
CMDR. TORG: A spy!
The two guards pull out their disruptors and aim them at Kyle as he motions for them to bring him to the bridge.
