Surrounding DS17 the fighting was fierce. The Romulans employed "strafe and cloak" firing tactics to great effect during the early stages of the battle. While the Ronin was able to track the signatures of the Romulan ships at times during the fight, they were effectively on their own. Due to internal docking problems that were plaguing DS17, many of the starships fit for battle were docked on the outer ring of the station. Those ships served as sitting ducks and were effectively neutralized by the repeated Romulan strikes. The USS Stanton and {{USS|Callahan}} were only able to break free of their docking clamps when the Romulans blew the ships to pieces. An effective counter attack was launched by the Ronin and its fighter wings. The already deadly skirmish took a disastrous turn as possible cease fire talks with the Romulans turned into a kamikaze attack by a Romulan shuttle. The bridge of the USS Ronin was abandoned and the bridge officers regrouped quickly in the Flight Operations Center. The saucer section of the Ronin was evacuated and eventually used as a massive projectile. Seeing the Ronin lost, Captain Kolk ordered the rest of the ship evacuated. Staying behind – Lt (jg) Trolin also remaining – Kolk attempted to provide cover fire for the escape pods before the Ronin was no more. | Surrounding DS17 the fighting was fierce.

The Runabout | The Runabout {{USS|Wye}} gave chase to the Vulcan shuttle. Deep in the nebula, LT Cmdr Assanti attempted to talk with the Vulcan Captain "Sopek" regarding Walker. "Sopek" would not acknowledge that he had the missing Ben Walker in his custody but he did invite Assanti and two officers aboard for further discussions. LT Jg Gregory stayed behind and transported Assanti and Jassa over to the Vulcan Science Vessel ''Revelation''. Their plan involved bargaining with the Vulcans using the newly formed Wormhole as a hostage. Assanti and Jassa were met by Romulan Tal Shiar agents who coldly informed them Captain Walker would be returning with them to Romulus. | ||
Naturally it had been a fairly intense experience for everyone involved. When Kolk and company found themselves back facing the artificial walls of the DS17 Holodeck once more there was mass confusion. Assanti and Readdy's team – along with a restored Dr Teller - stood in horror, many of whom had seen their lives flash before their eyes just moments earlier. Captain Walker stood at the front of the room and addressed the crowd. He explained that what they had experienced since the awards and promotions ceremony was an elaborate simulation to test their limits. Emotions swirled around the room as the Captain announced the evening's fun and relaxation on the promenade of DS17 would be on him. | Naturally it had been a fairly intense experience for everyone involved.
