Hi there, I'm sorry for the delay in getting this posted but I making sure it was how I wanted it, and plus my computer crapped out on me and so I built a new one and recovered my files from the hard drive.
So here go, hope you enjoy the revised story.
(fixed the issue with the line. If anything else escaped my eye, please let me know.)
Hey Arnold: A New Frontier
Chapter 1
The bridge of the small freighter rocked back and forth from taking a hit to the shields as the man on the bridge held on for dear life to the helm using every maneuver he knew to stay one step of ahead of the attacking ship. The man tapped a button on the console "Diego, I need more power to the engines" he said practically yelling as he piloted the ship as a console on the far right erupted into sparks from a power overload. Meanwhile further back in the ship in main engineering Eduardo's friend Diego was running to each console fighting to keep the ship in one piece. "Quit whining Eduardo I'm doing everything I can" he entered a few commands managing to route some more power to the engines. "There I routed every last bit of power from auxiliary." The ship's engines brightened up some from the power boost as it accelerated ahead of the ship behind them but wasn't making much of a difference.
Eduardo piloted the ship through a series of maneuvers doing everything he can to avoid phaser fire hitting the shields. Suddenly a communications console chirped as Eduardo heard the beeping and entered the command to respond as he figured it could buy them some time to get away. An image of an older man with gray hair filled the screen as he wore a stolen starfleet command uniform. "There you are my old friend." Eduardo felt anger rise in him at those words. "I am not your friend Sombra, what do you want with me and my ship?" he asked as Sombra sat calmly on his bridge. "Don't feign ignorance with me Eduardo, I know you have the relic. If you give it to me I'll let your pitiful little ship be on its way." Eduardo didn't have any reason to believe Sombra would stay true to his word as he hit mute on the console. "Diego I need power to the warp engines fifty seconds ago.", "I'll see what I can do cap"
Eduardo un-muted the screen before him "How do I know you'll keep your word?" Sombra just sat in his chair looking very relaxed "You have no word, but I can just as easily destroy your ship" Eduardo let a smirk cross his face, he knew if he did destroy his ship the relic would be destroyed with it. "I don't think you'll do that Sombra" Sombra then grinned as Eduardo had inadvertently told him the relic was indeed onboard. "So you do have it, Miles and Stella were fools to think you can keep me from my prize and now I shall claim it." Suddenly a notification lit up on his panel indicating warp drive was online and Eduardo smirked at Sombra "If you want, come and get it." he Taunted as he expertly entered in the command for warp and without warning to Sombra the small freighter jumped to warp in a blaze of bright light in the distance.
Eduardo moved from the helm he had to act fast, it wouldn't be long before Sombra caught up to him. Sombra had an excelsior class ship which had been commandeered years ago from luring it onto a trap in the Celes System and now the ship was under his command. He rushed to the cargo hold in his small ship and opened up the crate carrying the relic of the ancient Green Eyes. The relic had been placed in a small container and Eduardo quickly added a small isolinear chip to a secondary compartment and then took the whole thing to the forward torpedo launcher. he sprinted to the console and punched commands for a long range probe as the computer placed into position he opened it up and loaded the container inside and as soon as it was closed he launched the probe toward federation space.
Once he made it back to the bridge there was a alert sound coming from the operations console as he went to check it his face went pale. The ship's sensors had detected Sombra's ship heading in at high warp, which his own ship is only capable of warp five. Then another alert chimed of a incoming torpedo be he didn't have time to react as the tiny ship was struck and knocked warp drive offline. The floor shuddered below him as the ship buckled from being forced out of warp before he managed to regain control of the impulse engines but it was to late now, Sombra's ship was right on top of them.
Again Sombra hailed his ship "Are we going to play these games all day? I have more important things to do you know" Eduardo breathed a faint sigh as he figured Sombra must not have detected his ship launching the probe. "Well enough chat Eduardo, I'd be please if you and your associate would join me aboard my ship" With that Eduardo and Diego were both transported off their ship and into the brig on Sombra's ship. An hour passes as Eduardo and Diego waited in the brig before Sombra walked up to the force field. "So Eduardo where is the relic?" Eduardo stood up from the bench that was built into the wall "You mean you can't find it? I'm surprised a man of your stature can't find a simple relic." He said mockingly which only infuriated Sombra and raises his voice a bit more "What did you do with that relic?" Soon both men were nearly face to face on either side "Its far away from here...Sombra" With that he went back to sitting down smirking at Sombra as he did.
Sombra grinned back as he gave a hand signal to the man operating the console near by and then both men found it hard to breath and began gasping for air, he let this go for a few seconds before giving the command to re-activate life support for their cell "Are we feeling more talkative now?" Eduardo just glared at him. "Oh I take that as no." Once again gave the signal and both men were gasping for air for a few moments before air was restored "I can do this all day, but I'd rather know where my relic is." Eduardo and Diego were just hunched over trying to recover from the momentary loss of oxygen and still gasping some "Just into federation space, that's all" he said barely able to speak but even with that information it was a long shot as Eduardo had wiped the logs after launching the probe. All he could do now is wait and hope that Starfleet sends a rescue.
Hope you enjoyed it so far please let me know in the reviews.
