This is the second story in what will hopefully be a long line of stories. This story continues the adventures of the Lieutenant Simon Hartstone. While not necessary to read the story "Punishment" it would be advisable to set up why this new character is aboard Voyager.
Captured! Chapter 4
I do not own Star Trek: Voyager or any of the characters within it, I just think with the canon temporarily dead with no more series (that I know of) and no more movies (that I know of) that it needs people like us to continue the legacy. Thank you
Chapter 4: Its Rude!
"Sorry it's the end of the road for you, you are coming with me" he raised his rifle higher to make himself serious.
"You know you shouldn't do that?" Simon turned with his hands raised and a big smile
"Do what?" the guard looked at him with a questioning look
"Point your gun at people" Simon moved a step closer to the guard; the guard raised it even higher.
"Why not?" the guard still had a puzzled look on his face
"Well it's rude for one thing and another thing someone could get hurt" and with lightening speed Simon kick the gun out the guards hand and its smashed into the bulkhead wall, before following up with a right hook, and then a left hook which sent the guard reeling through the door to the Jeffries tube out into the corridor. Simon poked his head out of the door to make sure the guard didn't have reinforcements. "See I told you someone would get hurt" Simon smiled.
The guard came back with a spinning roundhouse kick to Simon's stomach, which took all the air out of him. The guard then followed up with a straight right punch, which knocked Simon onto the deck.
"Damn that hasn't happened in a long time," he said to himself as a kick to the stomach took the guard off balance and Simon swept the legs out from under the guard sending him to the deck with a crash. Simon rolled onto his shoulders and used his hands to nip up onto his feet again. Simon picked up one of the guards legs and with his Borg enhanced strength Simon threw the guard into the opposite bulkhead, which shattered a command panel on the wall.
The guard got to his feet with an amazing display of resilience and he grabbed a shard of glass from the broken command panel. He then lunged at Simon but he sidestepped the stabbing motion and grabbed the same arm and followed up with a kick to the stomach. He then twisted the arm with the glass still in it and pulled it out of the guards arm before slitting the guards throat with it. He lets the guard go and he stumbled a bit holding his hands up to his neck before dropping to the floor.
Simon dropped the piece of glass and looked down at the fallen body for a moment, before dragging him back through the door and into the Jeffries tube walkway.
"I told you guns were going to get some one hurt" he said to the corpse as he went over to check the guards weapon "smashed, damn it I knew I kicked it to hard." He then proceeded to check the guard for any more weapons or any more useful items that he may have on him he looked down at the guard's waist where a belt was strapped and a Starfleet issue tricorder and type 3-hand phaser. "Looks like some people have been raiding the storerooms haven't they." He looked down at the corpse with a mock frown on his face.
He took the belt off and he then proceeded to strap it round his waist. He pulled the phaser out and he checked the charge on it, full charge and set to kill, he put it back the holster. He then pulled the tricorder and tapped in some commands, he also pulled his combadge off and pulled it open, and he scanned it with the tricorder and then pulled out a section of the combadge. "Well that should make sure I have no more surprises today then" He threw the section of the combadge he pulled out to the floor and he closed it and put it back onto his chest. He also tapped a few more commands on the tricorder and he replaced it into his belt "That should mask my bio signs from the internal sensors" he said to himself.
Simon then looked at the corpse he smiled and he got an idea.
"So Simon is alive" Tom smiled
"Either that or they are having sensor problems" Chakotay said
"Well that was the sensor data that they showed me, and that was the reason I was taken to the bridge, they wanted information on him."
"Did you tell them anything?" Tuvok inquired
"Well I did tell them a couple of things, he doesn't go down easy and he doesn't hesitate to kill."
"Well score one for the good guys" Harry pumped his arms
"Don't get to enthusiastic Mr Kim, I think Mr Hartstone fight has just begun" the Captain said as she continued to stare out of the brig from behind the forcefield.
"Has Ranstain reported in yet?" the leader barked
"No he hasn't the man at ops replied and I have checked the sensors there is no malfunction they are working perfectly" the man working at ops reported.
"Leader to Ranstain reply" he tapped the combadge, there was no answer but as if the fates had answered the call the turbolift doors opened. The man at tactical turned his head to see who was going to appear but when no one did he poked his head round the corner
"Leader" he shouted, and the leader turned and he saw it for himself a dead body sitting in a chair in the turbolift. The leader walked up the steps to upper section of the bridge and took a long look insider the turbolift "Ranstain what the hell" he said. He looked at the dead Ranstain with a deep cut across his neck, his arms slumped and his head lulling back lifelessly. There was a PADD with a flashing message sitting on the dead guards lap, the leader picked it up and looked at it, he pressed the button and a simple message played on the screen "1 down, 19 to go" the leader read. He threw the PADD down onto the floor.
"What does it mean"
"It means I want this man found and killed" the leader shouted at his subordinate "He could put the whole plan in jeopardy if we are to return Voyager intact to Antillian we need to find him and kill him." He turned to the man at conn "How long will it take at maximum warp?"
"It will take 6 hours leader"
"Do it" he barked "take him down to the ships morgue on deck 5 he will be kept there until we get back to Antillian.
Another Antillian guard got into the turbolift with the corpse, "Deck 5" he said. The turbolift whizzed down and the doors opened at deck 4 the guard picked up the now deceased Ranstain and threw him over his shoulder and walked down the corridor.
When the guard had gone a panel from the top of the turbolift moved to side, Simon dropped though the hole. "6 hours to think of something and put it into action" he closed the turbolift doors "Computer deck 8" he said.
