Once they were all back onboard the enterprise they made their way to the bridge. Once they arrived they all split and took their stations.

"Okay Mr. Spock what was this video?" Kirk said as he made his way to his chair.

"It is the security camera footage from the bridge."

"Alright, play the video."

Spock quickly obliged moving the video up to the main viewing screen. The video showed as everyone on the bridge pulled out their weapons and pointed them at the turbo lift doors. There were a couple tense moments before the turbo lift doors opened and there was a barrage of phaser fire causing enough smoke and debris to cover the screen. It slowly settled to reveal a shocking scene. Chekov was holding a man in front of him and was using him as a human shield keeping the others at bay.

"Come any closer and I'll kill him!" Chekov shouted backing himself up and away from the others.

"You're Starfleet, you wouldn't kill him it's not their style." One of the masked men laughed.

"I don't give a damn what Starfleet would do!" Chekov said backing straight into a wall.

"Grab him he's no threat." The masked man ordered. The others ran forward but they didn't get far before Chekov gunned them down.

"You want to try that again?" Chekov said, still holding the now terrified man in front of him. Suddenly there was a bright flash and the man being held dropped dead to the floor.

Chekov immediately raised his phaser in the direction that the flash had come from and fired rapidly for a few moments.

"What is the holdup Mr. Lewis? This ship has been beaming out a distress signal for the last five minutes." An eerily familiar voice said from the smoke filled turbo lifts. Chekov's phaser shook slightly as he recognized who the voice belonged to.

"I am sorry sir it's just that he has killed everyone else."

"So I see" The voice said stepping out into the illuminated bridge but before he was fully visible the video went to static.

"Whoa, Whoa, What happened?" Captain Kirk shouted jumping out of his chair.

"It appears the power on the ship failed at that point" Spock said stepping behind the Captain's chair with his hands behind his back.

"Is there any sign of where they went?"

"None Captain."

"Then we scan the planet if they got caught in a tractor beam as the data shows then they must have been generated by something closes by."
