Prologue/Departure

(Alpha Quadrant, August 16th, 2276 Federation-Klingon Border)

A Cargo vessel is approaching an outpost along the border as the Captain's voice comes over the com requesting clearance.

Outpost 4 this is Cargo vessel Daedalus requesting Clearance to dock the Captain says over the com.

Hours of silence then the Captain tries again.

Outpost four do you copy The Captain says over the com.

Then two Klingon D-7 Battle Cruisers appear over the destroyed outpost and approaching the Cargo vessel.

This is Commander Kargh of the IKS Vorn your presence here is a violation of Klingon Space but thank you for the cargo, you will surrender it to us or we'll destroy your ship Commander Kargh says over com.

The Cargo ship tries to leave the sector to get out of the jamming field to warn Earth of the destruction of the outpost.

Mayday, Mayday this is Cargo ship Daedalus we're under attack by two Klingon Battle cruisers and are requesting any and all assistance I repeat this is Cargo vessel Daedalus we're under attack by two Klingon Battlecruisers The Captain says over com.

The two Klingon Warships fire off their torpedoes and destroy the Cargo vessel as they cloak.
