===Taking Centre Chair to find an A.W.O.L. Captain===

Although slightly annoyed with the chief medical officer and counselor for not warning him about the Captain sooner, Rocar devoted all his energies to getting the captain back. He dispatched away teams in three different shuttles; himself remaining on the [[USS Dominance]] with two other officers. They needed to get the systems back online since Capt. [[Hebron, Xan Kanthoth|Hebron]] had locked them out as part of his escape. During this time, Rocar dealt diplomatically with a group of [[Yukki]] who wanted to claim salvage rights of the Dominance under the quadrant's interstellar laws. Rocar's eventual solution was trick the chicken-like aliens into running away by telling them it was all a [[Corbarian]] test and the two approaching Corbarian war cruisers were coming after them. Although he had gotten rid of the relatively harmless Yukki, and engineering had returned all the ship's systems to full operating capacity, Rocar still had a problem to deal with - the two approaching Corbarian vessels that were not really after the Yukki but coming to confront the Dominance.  

When Rocar was a Lt.Jg, Cmdr [[Fire-claw, Becka|Fire-claw]] had been CO of the Dominance and warned never to return to Corbarian space with her starship. Although not in Corbarian space, they were close and their presence and identity had been recognised. A casual warning soon turned into a confrontation when the Corbarians recognised Rocar as one of their convicts; yet realised they had no readings from the punishment chip that should have been active in his nervous system. It soon became clear that the reason Rocar had been able to perform first aid to an injured officer and had not had any punishment nightmare visions recently was since the Corbarian punishment chip had deactivated when the [[Ktarian]]'s mind had been seized by the telepathic beings and his body died. Eager to re-activate Rocar's chip, the [[Ktarian]] was forced to use the Dominance in a game of 'cat and mouse' with the two Corbarian ships.  

Splitting the vessel into three sections; they confronted the two ships, irritated them by flying in close on the attack and slowly lead them to a massive ion storm which had been detected into the area; performing what could almost be text-booked as the Rocar manouevere the three parts of the Dominance tricked the Corbarians into being dragged down into the vicious ion storm whilst they escaped, reformed and proceeded to a class-M planet in the next sector to pick up the away teams and the apprehended Brikkar; time was of the essence since the ion storm was on a direct course for that location.  

Seeing Hebron's rejuvination in sickbay; Rocar finished up a few duties on the bridge, his last act as CO being to rescue a visiting Bajoran vessel with a religious delegation that wished to come onboard the Starfleet vessel and discuss an issue involving one of their officers. Rocar agreed to let the delegation onboard and then attended a memorable staff meeting where he transferred command back to Fleet Captain Hebron and was relieved to return to his position as First Officer, having received a promotion to full commander. He then began to introduce their next mission of charting gaseous anomalies and spatial ionide build-ups in the sector. After an hour of lecturing and boring the senior staff with science, he was interupted by a call from the bridge where they'd received a distress call from a [[Vemlin]] vessel trapped in the growing ion storm.
