Kharth had a head start on Airex, and a Romulan in plain clothes could move through the crowds of Sanctuary District Alpha with far more freedom than a pair of armed Starfleet officers. So she got to the square first and spot…

When Kharth clambered up the ladder into the King Arthur’s briefing room the next morning, she found Airex and Beckett already in full swing. ‘This is an opportunity to change countless lives,’ the young en…

After ten minutes in a bathroom, five minutes with a medical kit, and two minutes sat in the King Arthur’s briefing room with a steaming mug of tea, Doctor Karl T’Sann looked a little more half-human. He’d tied his hair back,

‘What are you doing?’ Commander Airex had demanded when he and a sullen Lieutenant Kharth had returned to the King Arthur to find Beckett and Drake sat on the top of the runabout. Just to be judicious, Beck…

She was a Starfleet officer, a veteran of campaigns against professional pirates and renegade Klingons, but to walk these streets was to be a scrawny fifteen year-old again. The scent scraped the years away…

Beckett hopped down the last rung of the ladder out of the King Arthur’s hatch onto the dusty dirt of the surface of Teros IV and immediately slid on his sunglasses. ‘Damn, I hate uniforms.’ Airex was already out, …

‘Turnabout is fair play,’ said Valance, stood in the door to Airex’s quarters. ‘Do you know what you’re doing?’ He was in his bedroom, fastidious as he packed his carry-all, and didn’t look back at her. ‘Hullo to y…

For over twenty years, a whole generation of colonists had eked out a living on this rough world. Not because it was rich in resources or an agricultural breadbasket; not because it sent precious minerals or abundant food bac…

‘So, uh, guys, this is my roommate, Nate.’ Ensign Athaka gave an awkward gesture as he pulled up a chair at the low table in the lounge. ‘You don’t need to sound apologetic for bringing me along, pal,’ Beckett said with wr…

‘I assure you, Ardana Outpost, if there were any sign of the Phoenix leaving the asteroid belt, we would have detected them.’ Takahashi felt his throat try to close up as the low voice of Commander …

The light was so bright and clear in the gardens it felt like the air itself hummed. Rosara Thawn had not visited the seat of the Twelfth House of Betazed, of the head of her household, in many years. But to walk the long gra…

‘Don’t listen to that blowhard West,’ said Hawthorne, following Takahashi down the shuttlebay stairs. ‘He has a thorough lack of imagination and an incapability of extrapolating beyond what he can see.’ Antar leane…

‘If we’re not out of here in two hours,’ Lopez told the staff gathered around the briefing table, ‘then Vega gets hit with nobody to protect them. The Decius has better sensors than us, and will spot us before we spot them if…
-
‘Steady as she goes, Antar.’ Lopez rested her elbow on the command chair’s armrest, squinting at the viewscreen. ‘If we can slip through this section, we should be in the clear.’ ‘Still no sign of the bird-of-prey,…

‘We’re at the periphery of the belt; reducing speed to one-quarter impulse,’ said Antar, and Lopez felt the hum of the ship beneath her as the decelerated. She had to remember that a ship the size and power…

‘This is unacceptable.’ Takahashi looked up from his bridge post. ‘You’re going to have to narrow that accusation down.’ Lieutenant Shepherd was West’s number two in the Science Department, which…

It took the better part of four hours before Lopez could leave the bridge. Going to warp was all well and good, but the newly-settled staff of the Phoenix all needed to acclimatise themselves with elements of the ship’s syste…

It was a sunny day in San Francisco when the Phoenix was due to launch, so Lopez slouched to the shuttlepad in large sunglasses to shield against the bright light, horrifically hungover. Her pilot was smoking when she

Rourke hadn’t liked Kehinde Hargreaves very much when they’d first met several months ago, and the prospect of him now commanding Beckett’s flagship was not reassuring. But the weathered officer extended a hand as he intercep…

‘We’re minutes out, sir,’ came Drake’s brisk report. ‘Boost power to the forward sensor array,’ said Rourke, glancing over his shoulder to Airex at Science. ‘Let’s make sure there’s nothing in our path.’ …

Interim events of this story are covered in 'The River of Blood' thread. ‘This is it,’ said Adupon, gripping the pool table console in the heart of Main Engineering. ‘This is how we’re going to die.’ &a…

Elsa Lindgren had seen combat from a starship bridge before the D’Ghor came to Archanis. Even prior to the disaster at Thuecho that had changed Endeavour forever there had been encounters, however brief, however fewer

‘Another casualty report, sir. Legera.’ Commander Reyes’s expression was studied as he extended a PADD across the desk in Admiral Beckett’s Starbase 27 office. With a sigh, Beckett took it. He clicked his t…

Victory didn’t happen all at once. It often came slowly, part of an excruciating grind of overcoming one enemy, moving on to another, then realising the tide had turned minutes, hours ago, and here it was, the end. Beckett ha…

‘Legera II confirmed secure, Admiral,’ came Commander Lockhart’s report from her station on the Caliburn’s flag bridge. ‘I see that.’ Beckett could actually see about six crises at once, flashpoints of red …

USS Endeavour Haydorian System Thawn’s entry to Sickbay did not interrupt the soft buzz of activity of medical staff preparing facilities and equipment, like the rumble of distant storm clouds. With no immediate injuries or delivery …
