Displays across the quadrant are interrupted by feedback for a fifteen seconds, then a rippling white flag, with a fanged and horned skull over a blood red disc appeared.
“Hello Federation dogs and their puppets. I’m looking at you Cardassia and the so called Klingon Empire. We are the Ashen Hand and by now you know we are responsible for the love taps on Empok Nor. That’s just the start. The Federation is a fractured entity, no longer able to keep the peace within their borders and their citizens are disillusioned with the status-quo. The Ashen Hand is change my…

The night club wasn’t…

Posted on Mon Dec 23rd, 2024 @ 4:44pm by Commander Rhupert Tyree in General News
By Tricia Takenawa, Independent News Service.
Two days ago, Starfleet Command through the Federation Bureau of State issued a travel warning for Sector 500, specially the transit lanes around Antica space as unrest on the Federation member world grows.
In the past month, a separatist movement calling itself the Ashen Hand has taken responsibility for a number of fire bombing incidents on Antican worlds and today, a rash of fire bombings around the UFP offices on Selay. The Selay and Anticans have a long history of warfare between the species, only finding peace twenty five years ago when both were…

When contacted, the BR&R declined comment.
When asked during the daily briefing in Paris, Nigel Ash,…

The outside of the Evania was surprising. It was better than what Amy thought it would be. This was her first time in being on a ship of this nature. She had researched it, looked at the amenities. The pictures just didn't do it any justice on the outside the same maybe true on the inside.
Amy truly hadn't anticipated Rhu to agree to accompany her, but hey she can adjust. She gave Rhu a sidelong glance before they entered the ship. A Risan ship one of many who traveled to starbases, to offer their services. "If you can't make…

Empok Nor, the station had its perks, and Luna had enjoyed having some time off, after her stint of being a bodyguard. The person was Fabiola Jentee a diplomat's daughter. The work was fun, and also it had its trials. There had been several attempts of her being kidnapped in order to persuade her father Ambassador Fenwell to not broker a deal between feuding countries. That though was over and Fabiola was married, and had her own team of bodyguards provided by her husband. Esteban Fernandez.
As Luna wandered around, She was concerned finding that there was evidence of a…

Sickbay was busy as Angela was treating people with minor injuries, and some smoke inhalations . She looked up to see two Andorians walk into sickbay. She blinked as she thought it could make a good joke. Two Andorians walked into sickbay... "Hello, may I help you?" Looking literally upwards at both Biv and Zuub. "Are you injured?"
At the voice, Biv glanced around and saw a possibility of escape. "Ma'am," he gestured toward Angela, speaking to Zuub. "Look. An officer type lab goon. Bet they know everything. All you have to do is ask."
"Lab goon?" Angela raises…

Biv refrained kept his antennae from twitching as he waited for the transport (SS Iris Betrayal) arrive. Another new officer was joining the Valiant.
As far as chief was concerned, there was getting to be more rank around the escort than an open latrine. Way more than a ship her class would dictate, but being a ship of her class wasn't the whole story, now was it?
Sighing to himself, he looked around again and saw people actually getting off the Federation flagged transport. Now if Valiant's new CMO would shake herself off, he could get this done and get…

Rhu felt sweat running down his back as he shut off the laser welder and his face shield lightened automatically as the retina damaging glare from the laser was cut off. He had to wait nearly a minute for the air quality indicator to turn green so he could remove the helmet and run fingers through his sweaty hair, eyeing his handiwork.
Even though the freighter had space, Rhu had decided they needed a SCIF. Since they couldn’t take the Adelaide to a normal ship yard or get engineers in from Fleet to construct it, they would have to do…

Operation Horoscope, to secure alternative transport under the Department of Operational Analysis is complete. The ship is now registered to my Nom de Guerre, Logan Wright as an independent owner.

I’ve split my officer’s into two groups to pursue leads on the Pirates, and more directly their backer. To these ends, Commander Rahl and Lieutenant Meren are to approach the trader, probable smuggler Brexis when they arrive at DS9 in ten days. Their cover is up to them but I’ve made discretionary funds and transport available to them. We’ll see how that goes. Dayna is having a crises of conscious when it comes to working for Fed Intel. Ideals versus work that actually needs to be done. Maybe it was a mistake retaining a Scientist as…

Captain's Log, USS Valiant. Commander Rupert Tyree Commanding.
In pursuant to orders from Vice Admiral Koratt Th’keliss, under the Seal of the President of the Federation, we (USS Valiant and crew) have ben seconded to Federation Intelligence and ordered into Delaxian space (Spaniard, 2487 Beta Quadrant) to find and hunt down a pirate group working the shipping lanes there.
However, our mission is not to simply end the pirate threat, but rather hunt down people backing the pirates as it seems they have top notch ships and are well crewed. To that, both SI and FI haven't been able to…

The Valiant, in all her glory, sat in her berth at DS9. After the mess with the Lemures, Rianna was still smelling the residual odor left behind. No matter what she did, or used, the stench was still there. Could it be that it was all made up in her mind? Sure but why? Curtis had been busy as always so it left her to tinker with the engineering systems of the Valiant. Rianna wanted to make the Defiant class go just a tad faster than the normal specs allowed, so she had to do several new computations of variances…

“We’re ten hours outside of Valdivae and I can’t say I’m sorry to be gone from the place. The mission with Ambassador Telford was a cluster from he get-go and it’s done damage to the integrity of the crew.
First and foremost, of course, is the Death of the Ambassador at the hands of former Chief Operations Officer, Lieutenant Day Smith who is currently ensconced in Valiant’s brig pending turn over to Starfleet Security on DS9.
Joining her in the cells is Ensign Shen Gan’Agar who according to evidence provided by our cook, Ainsley Shaw, assisted Smith. Now, Ms. Shaw…
