The Ronin, largely through the brandishing of her torpedo arsenal, was able to bully her way past a pair of Cardassian ships to a rescue of her downed flyers and recover her away team as well. The subsequent leave was raucous and busy, with a wedding and various other events happening nearly simultaneously. However, new orders soon came and the ship is prepping for a long lonely run along the Gorn border, surveying the sensor buoys laid there at the end of the brief war a year and a half ago. During the briefing, Admiral Anassasi made a surprise visit, transferring Lt. Adair-Walker off the ship and promoting Cmdr. Mar to full Captain.

Stardate 238501.04

The USS Ronin, on a routine examination of monitoring buoys along the Gorn treaty line, ran into two issues: A distress beacon on low power, and a FTU convoy under attack by Gorn.

The Captain split the crew, taking four crewmembers with her to investigate the beacon, thought to be a trap. One of the crewmembers, Lt.Cmdr Amber Wilde, a claustrophobe, “freaked out,” doing an active scan. The small group shut down the sensors on the runabout to hopefully avoid detection.

Meanwhile the First Officer and majority of crew met the convoy. Initially a ceasefire was drawn by the Ronin’s superior firepower. As the crew works to come to some peaceful, or at least non-violent, solution, another alien race has been detected, and is suspected of instigating the FTU and Gorn into a war. The crew is now working to prove that there was a setup, while preparing a nice diplomatic dinner with the Gorn captain.

Following the beacon's signal, the Captain and her team were contacted by a pirate captain and escorted into a small station. The pirate used the Ronin's officers as an excuse to board the station in order to exact revenge on its owner by blowing him and the station to bits. While the Captain's team and various pirates were escaping, a relative of one of the Ronin's crewmembers turned up and asked for assylum from the pirates.

Back on the battlefield, Lt. Commander Walker and the rest of the crew exposed the evil scheme of the unidentified hostile aliens and explained the situation to the Gorn, thus resolving the conflict peacefully. Once the Captain's team returned to the ship, the Ronin was called away to Wheeler Colony, where the USS Independence and USS Ursa Major awaited. After a night of awards, promotions, and celebrations, the three ships are back to investigating the highly unstable situation on the surface.

Stardate 238504.06

The Ronin sat in a squadron with the Independence and the Ursa Major, stranded near the Galactic Barrier by an unexpected wormhole. The USS Phoenix, staffed by the COs and some officers of all three ships, attempted to reopen the wormhole to allow the ships to return to Wheeler Colony. However, a fleet of small ships put the small Federation fleet in their sights. The Akira-class ship took a defensive position while the other two deal with problems of their own. After being sent back to Wheeler by an energy being, the three ships reunited with their commanding officers.

The Ronin spent much of its leave time trying to shore up repairs so that it could make the journey back to DS17 to use the station's now-extensive shipyard facilities. A decision by the command staff to not bypass a nebula on the way back to the station turned disastrous, as the nebula overloaded key systems and forced an evacuation of the crew to a nearby Class-L planet, with little hope of getting a good distress signal out through the interference.

The Ronin, its systems crippled due to a cascade failure brought on by nebular radiation, managed to evacuate most of its crew to a nearby Class-L desert world (later dubbed Rakis). Scattered across the surface, however, the crew found themselves struggling to survive against the harsh climate and an indigenous predatory lifeform, able to ’swim’ through the sands by using soundwaves to change the consistency of the soil in front of it. These creatures, called ’sand worms,’ ’sand sharks,’ or ‘land sharks’ by the crew, took several of the Ronin’s crew before a way to combat them effectively was found, combining a sound disruption device, effectively preventing the use of sound to ’swim’ through the sand, and a large water cannon, re-hydrating the sharks’ rough and dehydrated outer skin and effectively tearing it apart.

On the Ronin herself, a number of crew members were stranded by the failing power systems. This was a blessing in disguise, however, as a Ferengi scout ship arrived soon after the ship was evacuated to ’salvage’ the stricken Federation vessel. After a brief fire-fight, the remaining crew managed to barter help from the DaiMon, Nekil, allowing them to alert the Federation to the Ronin’s whereabouts.

The Ronin is currently under tow, thanks to the USS Wellington, heading for DS17. There, her power systems will be shored up and she will be transported on to Utopia Planitia, Mars, for more extensive repairs.

The Ronin was towed to Deep Space 17, the main Federation outpost in the Ithassa region. At the small shipyards there, the ship's power systems were shored up in a whirlwind of damage control crews and industrial replicators. Docking to the USS Gridley, a fleet tug bound for Earth, with some of the damage control teams still aboard, the Akira-class battle-carrier left her Marine compliment and her fighter wing behind and made her way to the sprawling confines of the Utopia Planitia shipyards in orbit around Mars.

Aboard the ship, the month-long journey was passed by the crew mostly in introspection over the losses of lives on the previous two missions. A production of Shakespeare's Scottish Play was practiced and presented. A group therapy session was organized and lead by the ship's counselor. Progress was made with the crew, but the impact of the losses will be felt for a long time to come.

Soon after the ship arrived at Mars, the crew was treated to a special celebration: the long-awaited wedding of Idril Mar and Danny Wilde. The reception, a massive production hosted by the groom's parents, will be following shortly.

Stardate 238507.01

After the long anticipated wedding of Capt. Idril Mar and LtCmdr Danny Wilde, the crew of the USS Ronin were treated to a party whilst on leave at the Wilde Estate. The newlyweds departed for a brief trip to Whitby, England before officially going on honeymoon, but after their first night the Ronin's crew were called to Whitby to help search for Capt. Mar, who had since disappeared under mysterious circumstances.

The news of the missing captain increased the crews’ resolve to find her, and as the investigation went underway, it was soon established by the crew that LtCmdr Wilde was not acting his usual self and was in various ways actually hindering the investigation. The culprit was in fact Wilde’s alternate double from a Parallel Universe encountered on DS17 in the Ithassa Region the previous year, who had switched places with his alternate self and kidnapped the Captain and LtCmdr Wilde.
