''All Time High...ATH... that abominable abbreviation that seemed to crop up in every meeting he'd attended for the last several weeks. A new drug, predictably appearing out of the blue with not a single shred of history, any other investigation stalling to a halt as the tendrils of the corrupt brought the gears of justice to a shuddering halt''</center>

[[Image:Gilora Jemet.png|150px|thumb|left|Senior Inspector Gilora Jemet]]The Paladins are successful in quelling the riots on Tilanna V, but at a high cost. Nine marines lost their lives in the battle as well as countless members of the criminal militia.  Worse, the incoming medical team quickly found that the majority of the criminal militia were drug addicts rather than hardcore criminals.  The Archangels and Starfleet medical started work on a major medical relief effort, trying to save as many lives as possible.  One early complication occurred when Commander Anders found an un-exploded ordinance stuck inside of a wounded man's chest.  He was able to remove it, turning care pf the injured over to Doctor Ezo. 


Theo Whittaker's team landed in Anjunaar and rendezvoused with police inspector Gilora Jemet. From there two teams broke off: Lt Commander [[Tyler Kelly]] took Counselor {{n|Zinna}} and Lieutenant JG [[Freya Andersen]] to investigate Malinov's murder scene.  There the team found evidence and an eyewitness account that Malinov was lured to the alleyway by an Orion female; but murdered by a dirty cop.  Lieutenant [[Trellis Vondaryan]] took Lt Commander [[Rilem Danoel]] and probationary Ensign [[Zel Rohan]] to the Cardassian section of the city to investigate possible leads.  They found that the criminal boss [[Janker]] runs his business out of a club called The Factory in the rich part of town.  Their contact also led them in the direction of a dirty cop.


With the government hostage situation cleared the Aegis sent down several teams: A medical team to help treat those addicted to ATH - liaising with the Aegis to find a cure for the deadly drug; an intel team to investigate Malinov's murder and a security team led by Lt Commander Theo Whittaker investigating the Jenatris Confederation.  The intel team found that Malinov was murdered by someone on the police force and that there was terrible corruption in the Anjunaar government and law enforcementWhittaker's team found that the head of the Jenatris confederation was a criminal named Janker who had connections to [[Nacien Rixx]] (the man who sold explosive to the Romulan terrorists that blew up the Annabelle's Lament) and back to a suspected criminal merchant who set up shop on SB118! 
Lt Commander Whittaker headed to The Factory with Lieutenant Flynn and Inspector Jemet, searching for clues.  However Janker and the Jenatris Confederation took notice of the intrusionJanker sent Mespha - the same Orion woman who lured Boris Malinov to a dark alleyway - in to lure the Starfleet officers into the back warehouse area of The Factory to be disposed of.


Meanwhile as the crew of the USS Aegis work to sift through information and put the pieces together, they are hailed by a Klingon Vor'cha class cruiser and find out that Al'Akir, governor of Tilanna V has petitioned the Klingon Empire for membership.  Fortunately the communication between the Aegis and the Klingons is productive - the Federation was not looking to admit Tilanna, and both sides can benefit from sharing information about ATH and the Jenatris ConfederationThe Aegis is able to forge an alliance with Ambassador Dempok of the Klingon Empire in the interest of eliminating the Jenatris Confederation (an organization which is looking more and more like the Orion Syndicate...)
On the USS Aegis the bridge crew is sifting through the records of Tilanna V, looking for further clues as to the core of the criminal corruption - and they turn up a mother lode of information.  The current Police Commissioner of Anjunaar suddenly resigns and skips off Tilanna V due to the investigation and they are able to provide governor Al'Akir detailed evidence into several other corrupt officials.  The investigation becomes interesting when the Vor'cha class IKS S’Tarahk approached Tilanna V, beaming down a small diplomatic party.  The Aegis soon learns that Governor Al'Akir had petitioned the Klingons for membership in the Empire, and in return the Klingons will help clear the corruption form the planetHowever, Al'Akir has conveniently forgotten to tell them about Starfleet's presence and vice-versa.


On the planet Theo Whittaker's away team is attacked while uncovering the whereabouts of Janker, and the other teams run to his aid...
Fortunately when Commander Taybrim speaks directly to the leader of the Klingons, Ambassador Dempok, they find that Starfleet and the Klingons have little conflict over the system.  The Federation denied Tilanna V membership some years ago, seeing it as a 'welfare case' - but the work Starfleet is doing to clean up Tilanna V will benefit Dempok by making the planet viable for annexation.  In turn, the Klingons will put focused effort into cleaning up the rooted criminal elements on Tilanna V; removing much of the spread of drugs and illegal weapons from the area.  Taybrim and Dempok come to a mutually beneficial agreement, and form the beginnings of an alliance.
 
Down on Anjunaar the marines retreat under threat of more violence to the civilian community if they continue their presence there.  The criminals are certainly ratttled.  The medical teams are marked as non-combatants and stay to find All Time High bonds with the brain chemistry, becoming a surrogate for many neurochemical processes. This means that addicts must be weaned off slowly in order to reteach their bodies how to do basic functions without the ATH in their system. This makes recovery very difficult.  [[Arden Cain]], a civilian consultant on the Aegis is able to create a special nannite that will cleanse the body of ATH in a greatly reduced time.  Doctor Ezo starts implementing this treatment finding that it will be a successful cure; but again it will take time - the authorities on Anjunaar will need to see the process through to completion without Starfleet's help.

== Act III: An Explosive Conclusion ==
<center>''::Intentionally taking a starship into an atmosphere?  Something else to tick off the bucket list.:: -Kaitlyn Falcon''</center>

[[Image:Anjunaar.jpg|150px|thumb|left|The dust settles over Anjunaar]]The investigation into The Factory wuickly turns into a deadly firefight as criminal forces try to pin down the Starfleet away team.  Police Inspector Jemet is badly injured while Flynn and Whittaker are pinned down.  Commander Kelly's team arrives to lend aid; but Counselor Zinna and Commander Kelly are also injured.  Trapped and with nowhere to go, Commander Whittaker puts through an urgent distress call to the Aegis.
Knowing that they cannot simply beam the away team out because of the atmospheric interference, Major Tatash proposes a new solution - a HALO jump.  If Lt Commander [[Kaitlyn Falcon]] can maneuver the Aegis low enough into the atmosphere and Lieutenant JG [[Cadfael Peters]] can boost the transporters a small strike force of marines can get beamed into the atmosphere below the shuttle lanes and orbital defenses, but above the atmospheric interference levels; allowing them to parachute into the area where the away team is with transporter enhancers and additional firepower.  It is a risky maneuver; but Commander Taybrim supports it.  The preparations are put quickly into place as the Aegis moves into the atmosphere and the Marines gather on the transport pad.  A few seconds later Major Tatash and his small strike force are sailing through the atmosphere of Tilanna V in an adrenaline-spiking thrill ride to save their friends.
On the planet Lieutenant Vondaryan's team arrives at The Factory.  By now the building is being evacuated of civilians and something is definitely wrong.  Zel Rohan takes a gamble in climbing to the roof where the shuttles are parked, and gets lucky enough to retrieve Maximum Thrusters.  They are able to launch the shuttle and provide cover fire until the marines arrive.  Sweet Maxine gets a bumpy ride back to the USS Aegis, landing safely.
The Paladins are able to clear out the warehouse and set up transporters enhancers.  A medical team from the capital, led by Dr. Ezo, is beamed in to immediately tend to the wounded while transporter connection with the Aegis is established.  Once established the away team is beamed directly to the Aegis' sickbay.  The Archangels break down the mobile sickbay and retreat, but Commander Anders notices that one injured orphan boy is left behind.  He decides to bring the child with him to the Aegis; and quickly discovers that the boy - Mason - lost his family to the criminal street wars a short time before the Aegis arrived.  Unable to find next of kin, Anders decides to bring Mason with him to StarBase 118 where he petitions to adopt the boy.
The USS Aegis pulls away from Tilanna V, leaving the evidence of corrupt officials and the cure for ATH with governor Al'Akir and Ambassador Dempok.  Several days later the Klingon empire officially announces the annexation of Tilanna V, while the crew of StarBase 118 Ops enjoys a well-deserved shore leave.
