Episode 2: Diplomatic Warfare

Diplomatic Evacuation
The 2nd episode starts onboard the USS Victoria, 4 years after Episode 1 "Conditioning". Its her 1st mission since she left the drydocks at earth. The mission is sent to Captain Weston Berchtold, and his crew. The duty the crew must carry out this time, is to evacuate the colony stationed on the planet known as Boron. Because of all the tension between the Cardassians, and the Federation, the colony must be relocated as fast as possible. The Victoria arrived at Boron, and got in contact with John Franklin, the head of the federation colony. He requested that a squad from the Victoria beam down to the surface, and help protect the colony while it is being evacuated. A very small away team is beamed down, but a storm interferes with the beaming of the colonist. Members of the away team suspect that the Cardassians are generating the storm, so a few begin to leave the colony to investigate. During the investigation, they are attacked by some "Rock Creature", and have to neutralize it. They also come across a small Cardassian patrol, and eliminate them very quickly. Meanwhile Lt. Tigan and Vetz find a way to create a small beam to break a small hole through the storm, so that they can begin beaming the rest of the colonist.

Warfare in Space
Once all of the colonist were beamed aboard the USS Victoria a Cardassian ship, Galor Class, came out of warp. At this time, Captain Berchtold was ill, and confined to his room. 1st Officer Dilan Berchtold was on the planet along with the science officer. The Cardassian Ship hailed the USS Victoria and commanded them to leave. The Cardassian ship then fired upon the USS Victoria and said it was only a warning shot. With Commander Burton, and Commander Morganth as acting captains, they decided it would be best to leave. Helmsmen Lt. Tigan set a course for Deep Space 9, and the ship was on there way. The Cardassian Ship followed and shot at the USS Victoria during warp, and so a battle at warp speed began. The battle first started as a race. Both ships kept going at faster warp speed than one another. Then a ship fired upon the USS Victoria, but it was not the Galor Class ship. It was a Klingon Bird of Prey. The ship fired twice at the USS Victoria, one hit, and damaged the shields. The USS Victoria fired back, and crippled the Klingon's ship's shields. All three ships arrived at Deep Space 9, the Victoria was the first to arrive. When the Victoria dropped out of warp, they were contacted by Deep Space 9, a Galaxy Class ship, and a Constillation Class ship. The crew informed their allies about the current situation. The Klingon Bird of Prey was the next to come out of warp, followed by the Cardassian ship was next. The Starfleet ships engaged in a battle with the hostile vessles. The Cardassian ship was blown up first, by Deep Space 9. Then the ships destroyed the Klingon Bird of Prey's shields next. The acting captains of the USS Victoria contacted the Klingon Bird of Prey. A Cardassian Came on the View Screen. The Captain said that they stole a Klingon ship, and were using it as there own to help assist with the border control of the Cardassian Federation Border. The Acting Captains requested to board the Cardassian/Klingon Bird of Prey, but Deep Space 9 declined this request. The other 2 ships brought the hostile ship to the docks of Deep Space 9, for some classified purposes.
