Star Trek: Conflict
Episode One: Corruption
Chapter One

The blood-bath of Narendra III is over. The USS Enterprise-C is almost dead in the water. Life support is at 39%, the warp core is inoperative, long range scanners operating at 61%, and an atmosphere leak is making the bridge unsafe for humans. But Edward Shield, an Ensign Junior class, is trying to get the ship "out of the water". It seems that his best efforts are doing nothing, and he resigns himself to his death.

But T'Mar, a Vulcan officer in charge of the Junior officer corps., has returned to the bridge in search of Shield. Finding him on the verge of death, she uses a mind-meld to keep Shield alive long enough to leave the bridge and find a place where the atmosphere is not leaking. However, he passes out from lack of oxygen and does not remember a thing.

Meanwhile, the USS Admonitor receives the distress signal sent out by the Enterprise-C when it went under attack. Captain Young abandons her patrol of the Beta Quadrant border and heads with all speed towards the Narendra system. Despite protests from K'Mehr, the Andorian Chief Engineer, Young insists that they maximize the warp core output in order to reach Narendra before the Enterprise-C is destroyed. When K'Mehr refuses to activate the S'srelli technology, fearing it to be too powerful, Young shoots him in the stomach. As he dies, he says that this new technology will bring nothing but trouble to their ship and the Federation: Young vaporizes him. She elects Andrew Wellington, the Chief Engineering Assistant, to Chief Engineer, giving him the perogative to activate the S'srelli technology or face K'Mehr's fate. Though he has his reservations about it, Wellington obeys and the Admonitor quickly achieves warp 10.2, arriving at Narendra III in 0.0024 seconds.

They appear in space over Narendra III. They see the Enterprise-C, looking dead in the water. Young orders the transporter room to beam aboard all survivors. Instead of scuttling the ship, she gets the Admonitor's tractor beam locked onto the Enterprise-C. She then orders the ship to go to maximum warp, taking them to the nearest Federation outpost: an orbital station over the oceanic world of Typhon III. When Tactical Officer Morgan Phelps says that the captain is mad for doing such a fool-hardy action, since the quickest route from the Narendra System to the Typhon Expanse (where the planet Typhon III is located on the outskirts) would be a straight shot through Romulan Imperial space, he is killed as well. She does not appoint a new Tactical Officer, saying that there is no need.

Captain Young activates the Manual Override Protocol, which puts the ship entirely under her control. Using this, she is able to make sure that her orders are carried out with no intervention from the male members of the crew, whom she calls "maggots".

Young's ploy works well, and the two ships arrive over Typhon III safely...
