"Mr. Kim report." Janeway called as she exited her ready room on to the bridge.
"An alien ship just jumped out of warp directly in our path and opened fire. There was no warning or provocation."
"There is minimal damage to our port thrusters, the shields are holding." Tuvok supplied routinely.
"Open a channel." Janeway said, standing before her seat on the bridge.
"I cant, they don't seemed to have communication abilities." Kim answered with no small about of wonder in his voice. It was something he never seemed to lose even after all these years. It was almost enviable.
"Wandering through space, deaf and on the offensive seems a dangerous way to travel." Chakotay commented. His eyes never left the screen. It was as though he was trying to see right through the hull of the attacking vessel.
"Captain their configuration is not in our databases, and Seven has reported she and the Borg have not yet encountered their kind." Tuvok said.
"Great another mystery." Janeway muttered uncharacteristically under her breath.
"Tuvok pull us back to a safer distance. Lets show them we really don't want to fight here."
"Aye captain."
"Doctor to the bridge." Came the voice over the COM.
"I'm kind of busy right now doctor." Janeway answered.
"I just thought you would like to know that our guests have gone on a little unsupervised tour. I though that this might not be the best time for them to do that."
Janeway sat marveling the way things could just pile up one on top of the other so quickly.
"I'll go get them captain." Chakotay said, he was already out of his seat and halfway to the turbo lift.
"Thank you." She said with genuine relief in her eyes.
`Ok' Chakotay thought, `if I was from the past and didn't know a thing about a future ship that was under attack, where would I go?' it didn't even take a second for the answer to come to him. "Engineering, great, just want I need, and angry Klingon on top of everything else."
**I promise you the next chapter will be way longer. I'm not in the habit normally, of loading such small chapters. But in the middle of writing this and another story, I had brain storms for two new ones, and so, as you can imagine, having trouble getting back in to character. But bare with me, I'm back on a roll.... I think : )
