=== | ===Plot Recap=== | ||
Colonial extremists hijacked the quantum starliner ''Charles Lindbergh'', taking her 3,300 passengers and crew hostage. The ''Lindbergh'' had made her maiden voyage from Vulcan to Ramatis III in late 2392, as the first of [[Unity Transport]]’s new [[quantum slipstream]] fleet. She was on her way to Anoria XII when sector traffic control suddenly received a mayday distress call from the starliner before all communications cut off. | |||
Shortly after, the hijackers, led by known criminal and extremist [[Gabriela Cariño]], made their demands known, having secured their apparent prime target: Trill Chief of Staff [[Anari Kthria]], who was on her way to Anoria to chair a conference on colonial affairs. | |||
“I have many, but we can start with the dissolution of the Kalandra Reconstruction Authority, and the Federation to stop stealing resources that belong to the border words,” said Cariño in a message to the {{USS|Invicta}}. | |||
Federation President [[Narala]] dispatched her new Secretary of the Exterior, former ambassador [[Lily Ventu]], to the area to assess the situation and see that the crew of the ''Invicta'' negotiate an end to the standoff peacefully, or otherwise resolve the crisis. | |||
Commander [[Roshanara Rahman]], still serving as acting CO of the ''Invicta'' ordered a team, led by Ambassador-turned-Captain again [[Della Vetri]] to take the {{USS|Tiger|A}} (which was equipped with a [[quantum slipstream drive]], unlike the ''Invicta'') and proceed under radio silence to chase after the wayward transport vessel. The ''Tiger'' sent security and rescue teams aboard the Lindbergh in an effort to capture Cariño and her associates, but they discovered the presence of explosives. The ''Tiger'' then successfully disarmed the explosives thanks to engineer Lt. Cmdr. [[Luna Walker]], and the passengers of the ''Lindbergh'' were safely evacuated to Deep Space 10. | |||
Despite the heavy operation, the hijackers successfully escaped and remain at large. Meanwhile, the {{USS|Garuda}} and ''Invicta'' were attacked by unidentified cloaked vessels. After working how to discover these vessels through their cloaks, Commander Rahman sent a team to disable the ship from the inside. Though a small firefight ensued, the craft was captured without further incident. Charges are still to be laid with its crew facing interrogation. | |||
After a successful mission, the crews of the [[Invicta Expedition]] then traveled to [[Deep Space 10]] for a well-deserved shore leave. | |||
