The mission kicked off with a senior officer briefing on board the ''Arrow''. Commander Shayne led the meeting, starting off with an overview of the situation. At the time of the briefing, a few of the refugee ships had landed on the surface. Most remained in orbit and were avoiding each other. A team was assembled with Lieutenant Commander Collins and Lieutenant's Serinus, DeBarres and Nakada to proceed to the surface and set up a water filtration system for the new colony. It was made clear that their mandate was to help and assist, not to command. Shayne also reflected on the fact that even if they did bully their way into control, there was no guarantee they would be able to maintain it.

Meanwhile, on the surface, Collins, Nakada, Serinus, and DeBarres are working to repair the water filtration system, met by Overseer Heindrik.  He appears to be hiding something, setting nerves on edge.  Zicv, Waters, Traenor, and Caden have landed their shuttle and set up camp to begin a scientific expedition.  They've only gotten started in the morning when things take a surprising turn with the explosion of the Ferengi shuttle in the distance.  They're able to get in touch with Serinus and DeBarres, but communications have been cut off from Collins and Nakada.

Aboard the ship, negotiations have quickly soured with each party attempting to pursue totally disparate agendas that refuse to be reconciled.  Murkad, outraged that no one seems to take the Sheliak threat seriously enough, makes a big show of leaving the conference without any kind of deal.  The conference takes a brief break for Wilde to escort the general off safely, and for Shayne to welcome Arrow's new Operations Officer, Alvarez.  Shayne and Wilde had barely returned to the conference when Ghant makes it clear she has something other than more discussion in mind.

Engineering and Security crews finally pry free the bulkhead sealing the conference room, releasing the Shayne, R'Ariel, and Wilde.  Shayne assumes command, and Wilde runs off to defend main engineering with Gul Dakul.  Dau takes the opportunity to escape to his ship while Ghant is taken off to sickbay to be treated for her wounds.  Blet nearly fends off his attackers during his own escape, armed with a case full of latinum, but is captured when no aid comes.  Wilde and Dakul fight a running battle through the corridors of the Arrow, and Dakul ends up giving his life along the way.  Wilde is joined by Lt. Commander Eerie right before they find a massed force of pirates armed to the teeth outside of main engineering.

Inside main engineering, Alvarez, Brom, V'Lak, and the rest of the engineering crew are in the midst of effecting a plan to lock down the ship and restore computer control to Alvarez so she can repel the boarders with Anesthizine.  The plan is fraught, using a security module pilfered from a shuttle and a dubious reconfiguration of isolinear chips, but time is short with pirates working to blast the doors open and take engineering.  Brom constructs embattlements to hold engineering using a beloved [[Sofia Davenport | couch]], which immediately turns useful as the doors blow open, and pitched battle ensues between the Pirates and the crew in engineering joined by Wilde and Eerie.  Wilde is taken away as hostage, but the crew is helpless to save him.  The computer restart finishes just in time, allowing Alvarez to secure the pirate behind forcefields for the moment.  Still, causualties were heavy, and Alvarez makes a split-second decision to beam all of the engineers to sickbay and away from harm before locking down engineering and setting off to diagnose the problems with the Anesthizine.

Nakada, Brom, Caden, and Serinus have fought their way to main engineering, where they start on computer repairs.  Realizing Wilde is taken, Serinus sets out on a rescue mission to pull him out of Cargo Bay 1.  Alvarez, is also on her way there, on a mission to bypass a manual override that will make the Anesthizine functional.  She's stopped in her tracks by Ghant, who escaped from sickbay and is now itching for a fight when she sees her ship burning.  The two fight, trading barbs as well as blows, and Alvarez is knocked down hard.  Wilde, who escaped his captors and was freed from the cargo bay by Serinus, sees the situation and rushes in to confront her.  He barely manages a few blows before his own knife is turned against him in a barbaric mutilation.  Serinus manages to fire a shot, but is cut off by another emergency bulkhead.  Alvarez, realizing there's only one option, pulls herself back up and duels Ghant again and winds up killing her with Wilde's knife.  Seriously injured, she barely makes it to the manual override and deploys the Anesthizine.  Serinus clears the bulkhead, but it's all over - he calls in the trauma teams to save the two.
