Story:Star Trek: Kingston (alternate)/Battle of Sector 323/Prologue

The USS Kingston flies through a nebula cloud badly damaged with plasma venting from the starboard nacelle housing and several hull breaches along the ship's outer hull.

In sickbay wounded is being brought in as Captain Camar is in one of the biobeds struggling to get off the bed and back to the bridge, as Doctor Vorzok is trying to treat him.

Captain if you keep moving you're going to make the wound worse then it is right now Doctor Vorzok says as he looks at him.

Captain Camar groans.

Its my ship, I've got to get to the bridge Captain Camar says as he's trying to get up from the biobed.

He has no choice but to do the Vulcan nerve pinch and the Captain passes out.

We can finally treat him Doctor Vorzok says as he looks at one of the nurses.

She nods as Commander Martin walks in.

Doctor report? Commander Martin says as she looks at him.

He walks over to her and gives her a report.

I've done all I can do the power surge ruptured multiple arteries the tissue regenerators are working but I don't know if they'll be quick enough all we can do now is just wait Doctor Vorzok says as he looks at her.

She rubs her temple when Lieutenant Mirsky walks in.

Commander Lieutenant Mirsky says as she looks at her.

Brianna walks over to her.

Communications are out and half the ship systems are gone Lieutenant Mirsky says to Commander Martin as she looks at her.

Brianna looks at her.

Start working on the weapons system let Commander Jones know to restore the system we need them Commander Martin says as she looks at her.

Mirsky looks at her.

He's dead Commander a support beam got him and threw him into a panel and he died of electrical discharge Lieutenant Mirsky says as she looks at her.

She sighs.

All right you're acting chief engineer I guess Commander Martin says as she looks at her.

She nods and leaves to get some systems working as the communicator beeps.

Martin here Commander Martin says as she speaks into the communicator.

Commander we've picked up something on the detection system Lieutenant Jardnis says over the com.

She sighs.

Sound battle stations and divert whatever power we've got to the shields I'm on my way Commander Martin says as she speaks into the com.

She closes the communicator.

Doc keep him safe Commander Martin says as she looks at Doctor Vorzok.

He nods at her and she leaves sickbay.

A pair of Klingon battlecruisers are heading towards the Kingston.
