Hello everyone, okay, here I go. I'm trying to write these chapters ahead of posting them, like before I posted chapter 1, 2 2 was already finished and 3 was started. I want to stay ahead by 1 chapter. I also waited to see how the story would be accepted. Now for those who have now clue what certain things are, I'll do my best at describing them at the bottom, and you can also search them in wikipedia, which will tell you everything you need to know, with pictures and everything.

Now I like to thank acosta perez jose ramiro for your support and advice. I hope you enjoy this chapter as well.

I also like to thank Hellerick Ferlibay for your honesty and well I'll try my best at writing so non-trekkies can understand, but that task in it self will be difficult.

I would also like to thank w108 for your review, and I'll do my best at keeping everything together. One thing is, that if I don't know about it, I'll research it, so I don't make a mistake writing.

Well without further delay, I present chapter 2 of A New Frontier...

"Hey Arnold"

A New Frontier

Chapter 2

Arnold's ship flew closer and they could get a better look at the new ships. "Lt. Acosta, target the lead vessel and fire quantum torpedoes." "Ready sir" Came the response from the officer. "Fire." Ordered Arnold, four blue lit torpedoes flew across space and headed straight for the lead vessel. The impact could be seen on their shields. "Sir, the enemy ship has taken little damage." Arnold was in disbelief, those were the strongest they had in their arsenal, however there is one stronger, but it's only used as a last resort. Maintain fire, and get us between those enemy ships and the Oregon. The ship flew in and blocked some of the shots by using itself as a cover. The deck floor lurched under their feet as they took hits from enemy fire. Sanders spoke up again. "Sir we're being hailed by the Oregon." "On screen." Said Arnold with a sense of urgency see to see if the crew of the other ship was all right. "About time you showed up, oh Arnold, uh I mean Captain Mileson how good of you to drop by." Arnold felt relived to see her in one piece, "Helga- Captain Pataki, how is your ship?" She just looked at him like he was the biggest idiot in the galaxy. "It's seen better days, but I'm afraid the systems are failing left and right, I get one back online but another one shuts down." Arnold nodded.

"Captain, prepare for transport, we have to get you and your crew off your ship-" Suddenly her ship was hit again and a panel in the back exploded sending the crew member flying and landing a few feet away. Helga ran over to another panel and accessed the engineering panel. "That's it, warp core is destabilizing." Then Arnold could hear the computer on Helga's ship. "Warp core breach in 5 minutes, please evacuate the ship." Arnold quickly turned to sanders. "Ensign Sanders, transport the survivors off that ship." Sanders never took his eyes off the console while his fingers worked as fast as they could to get to the transporter. "Sir, I can only beam 40 at a time, and there are 300 people still alive." Arnold felt cold all of a sudden, he hated the situation, it was a lose, lose situation, the only thing he could do was to save as many as he can. "Get as many as you can, start with deck one, and use space in the cargo holds if you have to." Sanders nodded. "Aye Sir." Then Arnold turned to the view screen. Draw their attention away from her ship, fire full spread at the lead ship." The deck rocked again from another hit. "Shields down 20 percent." Yelled Sanders, Arnold stared at the screen at the flurry of ships flying around. "Keep us in a defensive formation around that ship." "Aye Sir" came the response from Ensign Pierce.

The ship rocked a few more times, as they transported more people aboard. Then an alert signal came from the Ops station. "Sir their warp core is going critical, the other ships must detect it to, their in retreat." Arnold looked at the badly beaten ship. "How many do we have onboard?" Asked Arnold even though he knew he wasn't going to like the answer. "220 so far." His thoughts were interrupted by a voice. "Sir, 20 seconds to warp core breach." Then came the part of the job that Arnold hated the most, and that was making the tough call. "15 seconds." He turned to the helm. "Get us out of here, warp 6." "Aye sir." Pierce tapped the controls and the ship turned and headed away at warp 6 just narrowly escaping the shockwave of the warp core breach from the other ship.

Captains Log Stardate:57073.96: We are in route to Starfleet headquarters at maximum warp, Helga and her crew have been treated and they have temporally joined are crew, and crew have had to share quarters for the time being. And as for the U.S.S. Oregon, it has been destroyed by, what Captain Pataki called them, the Irken Empire. The Oregon was overpowered and the warp core was breached. We rescued 260 out of a crew complement of 450, when we arrived on the scene there were only 300 alive, reports indicate that the U.S.S. Oregon had taken heavy damage and heavy casualties before we arrived. What happens next is up to Starfleet to determine.

The turbolift doors opened and Arnold made his way out of the left, and walked down the hall. Then he came upon the mess hall, the doors opened up, and he walked in. As he surveyed the area he could see Helga at a table talking to Phoebe, her second in command. Aside for that brief moment of talking to her on the bridge, it had been seven years since he talked to her. He felt nervous about talking to her now, but he started walking toward he, almost like on autopilot. He stopped at their table. Hi Helga, ah…long time, no see." Helga looked up at him, and for a brief moment he could see joy in her eyes, but then it disappeared. "Hey football head." "ah that's captain football head." He said playfully correcting her, this also got a smile from Helga, despite what had happened to her ship and her crew. Which the memory resurfaced and her smiled quickly faded. Arnold noticed this. "What's wrong?" he asked, "It's about your crew…isn't it?" She just nodded. It was her first command and her ship was destroyed one year into its service, and even though she only got to know a handful of the crew, she still felt a big personal loss.

Arnold didn't quite know what to do, because he had never been in a situation like this, sure he had seen plenty during the Dominion War, and that was how he became captain. He took charge when his captain was killed during battle. Then Starfleet commended him for his actions and appointed him captain two years ago. But it was a close friend that it happened to. For awhile their was an awkward silence until Arnold spoke up. "Ah It's good to see you Helga, although I wish it was under better circumstances." At that same time Helga was dreaming of those better circumstances as being in a church, then she pushed those thoughts away as childish dreams. "Me too, Arnold," She looked around a moment. "Nice ship you have here, sovereign class right?" "Yes it is." Answered Arnold. "It certainly is a nice ship." "Thank you Captain." She gave him a smirk. "Trying to keep it professional eh Arnold?" He nodded. "Alright Captain, what's the report?" Asked Helga as Arnold pulled out a PADD. "Here" She took it and started reading the report, when she was done she simply put it down on the table.

Arnold could see he wasn't getting anywhere with this, what could he say to make things better, she lost her ship and half her crew, feeling defeated he stood up from the table. "Well if you'll excuse me Captain I have to see Commander Johanssen about those repairs." Helga and Phoebe nodded so Arnold left the mess hall. As soon as the doors closed, he tapped his badge. "Captain Mileson to Commander Johanssen." Then his friend's voice came over the com. "Johanssen here, so how did it go?" Arnold let out a soft sigh as he walked down the corridor. "Not so good Gerald, I mean what can I do, her ship was destroyed with half the crew." "Yeah I see what you mean Arnold, tell you what, why don't you take some time off in the holo-deck, maybe catch up on that holo-novel you haven't done in while." Arnold brightened up a little, "That's sounds like a good idea Gerald. You have the bridge, and let me know when we reach earth." "You got it captain, Johanssen out." And with that he headed to the holo-deck.

So what do think so far? are you confused yet about any terms used, well here I go.

Quantum Torpedoes: Quantum torpedoes were first seen in the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode, "Defiant", fitted to the USS Defiant. They pack a considerably harder punch than photon torpedoes. Their high payload of 52.3 isotons is produced by harnessing zero-point energy. Quantum torpedoes glow blue after firing, versus photon torpedoes' red or orange glow.

Warp Core: The warp core (aka: Warp Drive) is essentially a matter-antimatter reactor, (which is a more powerful than a regular nuclear reactor) The Warp Drive allows a ship to travel at faster than light speeds, and if all if fails it becomes a powerful explosive, as if a nuclear reactor were to explode. Warp 1-9 are factors of speed, 9 being the highest or maximum.

I.E. (Warp Factor-6 the speed of light 186,000 miles per second estimate) (thats fast)

For more information check out Wikipedia, I'll list other things ast they come along.
