Age of the Gods!

It's the year 2419 and the USS Virginia with Admiral Janeway in command is on the way to the planet Pharguz on the edge of Romulan space.

"Admiral, we've got an unknown ship on the sensors. They send out a message." says the officer at the ops. station.

"On screen!" says Admiral Janeway as she stand up from the command chair.

A male human-looking face appear on the main screen.

"Welcome my children to Olympos!" says the unknown man in a deep dark voice. The light behind him come on and Admiral Janeway and her officers can now see that he is wearing ancient greek armor like a mythological hero like Heracles or something like that.

"Olympos...?" says Admiral Janeway. "Who are you?"

"I'm Ares, the god of war!" says the man on the screen.

"Ares, you say..." says Admiral Janeway. "Impossible! The last of the so called 'gods' of old is gone."

"Who?" says Ares.

"Apollo! Captain James Kirk met him on Pollux IV in 2267 and after Kirk destroyed Apollo's temple, he ended his existence." says Admiral Janeway.

"You and the rest of mankind shall suffer for what you have done!" says Ares.

"What we've done?" says Admiral Janeway.

"You killed Apollo!" says Ares.

"I thought gods couldn't die!" says Admiral Janeway with a sarcastic smile.

"Unlike the fool Apollo I'm aware that I'm not a true god!" says Ares in a serious tone. "Still he was my friend and he only wanted to do good."

"He held our people prisoners and was trying to force them to worship him as their lord and god. We only acted in self-defense!" says Admiral Janeway.

"I don't believe you, woman!" says Ares, now angry.

"My name's Admiral Kathryn Janeway!" says Admiral Janeway with confidence, not afraid of Ares.

"How dare you? Show respect towards your god!" screams Ares.

"You're a hypocrite, mr Ares!" says Admiral Janeway. "First you claim to be aware of your own mortality and then you demand that I see you as my god...? Make up your damn mind! You can't have the cake and eat it too."

"That's it, woman! You shall be destroyed!" says Ares.

"End transmission!" says Admiral Janeway.

"Yes, admiral!" says the officer at the ops. station.

Suddenly the ship begin to shake as Ares ship fire it's weapons.

"Ares fire some kind of sub-atomic distruptors!" says the officer at tactical.

"Red Alert! Shields up! All hands to battle stations! Fire transphasic torpedos! Maximum spread!" says Admiral Janeway on a strong loud clear voice.

The alert-lights on the bridge start to flash red.

"Torpedos away!" says the officer at tactical.

"Status of the enemy ship?" says Admiral Janeway.

"Enemy ship has lost forward weapons. The shields are down to 45 %." says the officer at tactical.

"Perfect! A few more tranphasics should get the job done..." says Admiral Janeway. "Target their main power-system and fire!"

"Aye, admiral! Firin' transphasics!" says the officer at tactical.

"Good!" says Admiral Janeway.

On the screen the entire bridge crew sees the torpedos destroy Ares's ship.

"Torpedos have reached their target. Enemy ship's been destroyed." says the officer at tactical with a smile.

"Admiral, one lifeform has just beamed aboard. It's Ares!"

"Location...?"

"Deck 5, section 12 F."

"Security to deck five! Kill the intruder!"

"Yes, admiral! This is ensign Collins!"

"Good, mr Collins! Use all neccesary force! I repeat, all neccesary force!"

"Yes, admiral!"

A few minutes later.

"Collins to bridge! The intruder's been terminated!"

"Well done, ensign!"

The End.
