''"Flashpoint" was a joint storyline with the {{USS|Veritas}} and the {{USS|Montreal}} regarding the destruction of [[Astrofori One]] by the [[Tholian]]s in late 2395 in the [[Menthar Corridor]] and the immediate aftermath in the [[Shoals]]. For information about USS Montreal's part of the plot, see: [[Flashpoint (Montreal)]].'' | |||

In 2491, [[Jhalib Ekal]] returns to the [[Temporal Integrity Commission]] upon learning that Captain [[Roshanara Rahman]] believed, after experiencing a temporal phenomenon and witnessing a future event in which the ''Veritas'' encounters a [[Tholian]] vessel, that the ''Veritas'' fires a quantum torpedo and initiates conflict with the [[Tholian Assembly]]. Deciding that their organization was out of options, [[Narm'ei Constable]] dismisses Ekal from TIC service and opts to implement their "final resort" - but Ekal learns of these measures, and fearing for his own life and that of his family, steals his [[CRI brace]] and travels back in time to 2395 to warn the ''Veritas'' of what's to come, even if that means changing his own future. | In 2491, [[Jhalib Ekal]] returns to the [[Temporal Integrity Commission]] upon learning that Captain [[Roshanara Rahman]] believed, after experiencing a temporal phenomenon and witnessing a future event in which the ''Veritas'' encounters a [[Tholian]] vessel, that the ''Veritas'' fires a quantum torpedo and initiates conflict with the [[Tholian Assembly]].

Meanwhile, in 2395, Commander [[Zhou Tai-Sheng]] of the {{USS|Montreal}} rescues a group of survivors before they were taken by Tholians, made up of crewmembers from the {{USS|Artemis}}, commanded by [[Felicia Nickson]]. The ''Artemis'', tasked with transporting a subspace telescope along the border of the Shoals and the Tholian Assembly, encountered a subspace eddy - when it's crew was forced to abandon ship, the ''Artemis'' fails to self-destruct. With Zhou seriously injured by Tholian forces, command of the ''Montreal'' is handed to Commander [[Mei'konda]], and the crews of the ''Veritas'' and the ''Montreal'' are tasked by Nickson to locate the ''Artemis'' and it's cargo - but if all else fails, to destroy the vessel. | Meanwhile, in 2395, Commander [[Zhou Tai-Sheng]] of the {{USS|Montreal}} rescues a group of survivors before they were taken by Tholians, made up of crewmembers from the {{USS|Artemis}}, commanded by [[Felicia Nickson]].

Meanwhile, a man named [[Jhalib Ekal]] was recovered by Veritas shortly after the mission to find the Artemis began. The man later identified himself as a 25th Century time traveler affiliated with a group known as the [[Temporal Integrity Commission]] (TIC). TIC apparently intended to sabotage Veritas in an attempt to prevent a war they believed we would start at some future date. While the crew had thought the sabotage was thwarted thanks to their efforts, a series of unexplained and catastrophic power losses resulting in failures of multiple systems occured shortly after they'd returned from Tholian space and were in orbit of an M-class moon of a gas giant. With life support threatened, Captain Roshonara Rahman [[Limbo (Veritas)|gave the order to abandon ship.]] | Meanwhile, a man named [[Jhalib Ekal]] was recovered by Veritas shortly after the mission to find the Artemis began.
