Captain Tala sat anxiously in the Command Chair of the U.S.S. Polaris, the ship cruised through subspace at an extreme transwarp speed. She wasn't sure what she would find when the ship disengaged from subspace. "Captain," the helmsman reported, "We're about to leave subspace." "Very well." the Captain readied her crew, "All hands to battle stations, divert power to weapons and shields." The Polaris slowed to a stop deep within the Beta Quadrant, five ships nearby waiting for her arrival. "Where is the Romulan ship?" Tala wondered aloud. "On screen." "The Romulan ship?" Tala immediately inquired.
