Typhon Log

Recorded by Lieutenant Commander Worf

Stardate 57892.76

"The Typhon has picked up unusual subspace readings in the Titan System while on route to escort a convoy of Vulcan Diplomatic Ships to R'Kar N'ra. Due to the nature of the Vulcan mission I have decided to press on to our rendezvous with the Vulcan ships and will stop near the Titan system to deploy Lieutenant Cooper and his wingman Ensign Turner."

U.S.S. Typhon Briefing Room

Lieutenant Cooper and Ensign Turner stood in the Briefing Room. They had been partners for months, since the episode with the Hur'q and had flown every mission since together. The two pilots had trained at Starfleet Academy together. Along with the other nineteen pilots aboard, they made up Red Squad. Of course they weren't all of red squad, there had been casualties when they last encountered the Hur'q.

"What do you suppose this is about?" Turner asked.

"Probably something to do with the Vulcan mission." Cooper replied. At that moment the doors hissed open and Lieutenant Commander Worf strolled in. He was in off duty clothes, which meant that whatever had developed, was important and must have just surfaced.

"Sir!" Cooper and Turner echoed and stood at attention. Worf walked to the head of the table.

"At ease pilots." Worf said. The two Valkeriye pilots stood with their hands clasped behind their backs. "A few minutes ago, the Typhon sensors picked up unusual subspace energies coming from the Titan System."

Cooper couldn't help but look shocked. Worf couldn't blame him, the last time the Typhon, its crew and its pilots had to deal with subspace energy had been with the Kan'Jhatae, who later turned out to be the Hur'q. The Hur'q had invaded the Klingon Empire and almost obliterated them millennia ago, but the had been turned back.

"However the mission to R'Kar N'ra still takes priority, we can't prove that these subspace emissions are being cause by the Hur'q." he said, trying to allay some of their fear. Another confrontation with the Hur'q was exactly what the Federation and its allies didn't need.

"I am deploying you near the Titan System to go in and investigate." Worf said. "If you see hostiles, engage them only if you think it is a battle you will win. If it is the Hur'q contact us and retreat. We will need you if another battle with the Hur'q Is upon us."

"Yes sir." Cooper said.

"We will be launching you in the new Valkeriye mark V. The mark V is equipped with the Enhanced Pulse Phasers you and your fellow pilots liked so much." Cooper smiled. The EPP was like firing an old style machine gun in space, only this machine gun fired pulse phaser packets. "It is also equipped with 10 photon torpedoes, 8 trilithium mines and 5 double-spread photonic missiles. The primary objective is to."

Worf was cut off by a violent shudder, followed by another, then another. The red alert klaxons activated and the room was now flashing red. Worf tapped his comm badge.

"Worf to bridge, what is going on." He said, fiercely.

"Commander Worf, a Klingon bird of prey and several fighters just de- cloaked and are firing on us." Lieutenant Thalket said, over the comms.

"Understood." Worf said. He looked at his two best pilots. "Turner go to turret one and begin to fire on my command!" Turner nodded and left the briefing room. "Cooper, report to launching bay one and get into the Valkeriye."

"Aye sir." Cooper wasted no time and sped out of the briefing room.

Continued in Friendly Fire.

Pretty short, but it's only the prologue. Please r&r because this is my first Star Trek fic.
