 Mel immediately realizes she’s referring to [[trek:characters:swims|Swims]], and Captain Kras continues, “So, I’m gone for two weeks on the weirdest vacation, first on Capella, then Risa. When I come back, I expect to find my ship ready after a maintenance layover. Instead, I find that parts of deck six, seven, and eight are just deck six now, the warp core has to be totally replaced, and whatever happened classified to holy hell. And for months afterwards, whenever we engage the warp engines, the ship stinks of burnt flesh and hair. So I’m pretty sure you just straight up murdered a bunch of people by releasing the warp plasma in engineering.”  Mel immediately realizes she’s referring to [[trek:characters:swims|Swims]], and Captain Kras continues, “So, I’m gone for two weeks on the weirdest vacation, first on Capella, then Risa.

-Fal mutters, “That would do it,” but Mel retorts, “Not my fault you lack imagination.” Captain Kras ignores the dig and heads to tactical. She eyes the shield grid and mutters, “[[trek:solstice:pcs:z_jace|Jace]]. Right,” before she starts fiddling. Before Mel can asks, K’tral receives a low-EM transmission from New P’Jem. She patches it through and they hear [[trek:characters:ambassador_jannek|Ambassador Jannek]] snarl, //“What did you do?”// Mel greets the ambassador and briefly outlines the situation; Ambassador Jannek growls, //“A scarred Bajoran led a group of workers in a fight against us, and the colony leaders quickly intervened, and then this Bajoran reaches me and tells me of the bombs. Oh, please inform your junior counselor that her predictions on the placement of the explosives was accurate.”// +Fal mutters, “That would do it,” but Mel retorts, “Not my fault you lack imagination.” Captain Kras ignores the dig and heads to tactical.

 Mel admits Ota Basric came up with the plan after speaking with them and the ambassador grunts. He asks coldly, //“How long until you return?”// Mel eyes flight control and replies, “About forty-five minutes.” The ambassador snaps, //“What? They can see that overpowered ship of yours returning!”// Mel says confidently, “No, they can’t. We’re going to get there undetected.” The ambassador squawks but Mel assures him, “Don’t worry about it.” Ambassador Jannek goes silent for a second before asking, //“Do you know who’s behind this?”// Mel admits, “[[trek:characters:chevranek|Chevranek]]’s sister, [[trek:characters:trell|Senator T’rell]].” Ambassador Jannek curses and mutters, //“I didn’t even know they were sisters.”// He then asks, //“Are you sure you’re not Romulan?”// Mel retorts, “Not many Romulans in Chicago.” Mel admits Ota Basric came up with the plan after speaking with them and the ambassador grunts.

 Phillip complies and the //Solstice// gently rotates and heads for the starbase, using only thrusters. Mel settles in, but Shan’taar remarks, “Well, that’s new.” Mel turns to him and Shan’taar reports wryly, “We’re returning to the starbase without any damage. Shields are down to ninety percent from absorbing the explosion, but that’s it.” Fal smirks and confirms Shan’taar’s report.  Phillip complies and the //Solstice// gently rotates and heads for the starbase, using only thrusters.

 +=====Summary=====
 +Using a low-EM transmission from the days of the Bajoran Resistance, the crew communicates with Ota Basric, who deliberately starts a fight with Ambassador Jannek’s people to secure their assistance. Captain Kras upgrades their shields and warns them of the Tokari. She also accesses Jace’s modifications to grant disable access to Mel, Saval, Fal, and Shan’taar. They successfully drop out of warp, decloak, and open fire on the coordinates, revealing a Romulan //D’deridex//-class warbird! Their first strike cripples the warbird, and then a second //Solstice// emerges from a temporal anomaly in the negative space between the Romulan hulls. The //Vanguard// also joins the fight, and Mel orders the ship evacuated Edgly loses the first three hundred Romulans but beams nine hundred safely to the starbase. Edgly manages to beam off Senator T’rell and her bridge crew despite interference as the second //Solstice// vanishes – as does the cloaking device. The //Solstice// and the //Vanguard// safely destroy the warbird.
