Chapter 2 of Star Trek Hellstorm
Chapter 2 Distress in the Distance
Captain Kenneth tapped on the comn channel as he sat in his command chair "Bridge to engineering, How are we doing here Braxon?" He asked cheerfully. Braxons annoyed voice filled the comn link with a grumpy report. “We have successfully achieved warp 5 sir we are now ready to begin testing on Maximum warp velocity's." Kenneth considered the proposal and then asked "What do you think Commander? Does your expert opinion on the warp core status concur with the chiefs?" Commander Darron spoke up in a questionable tone. "Sir the report in which you requested is not primarily the situation which calls for my expert opinion but rather that the Chief believes that we are ready for higher velocity speed tests and therefore I concur with the cheifs statement." Kenneth could barely hold a chuckle on the commanders response. "Alright, Commander you have made your point.' "Helm bring us to maximum warp." "Aye sir increasing speed to warp nine point nine." came the Lieutenants reply. On the screen the stars streaked in a colorful bright light and then settled to a more calmer streak. Kenneth relaxed back in his seat and sighed a feeling of relief "Well I say that’s a succesf....." He was interrupted by a severe shuddering of the deck as power started to flicker and lights begin to blink on and off uncontrollably. Consoles begin to explode and spark all over the bridge as the ship lost power and altitude control. "REPORT!!!!" Kenneth barked over the red alert klaxons blaring all around him. "Sir we have lost power to the antimatter containment regulators! I’m unable to bring auxiliary power online to compensate for the loss." Lieutenant Peterman reported. "Bridge to engineering what the hell is going on down there!!" Commander Darron was the first to answer. "Captain one of the antimatter containment flow regulators has just gone offline and its cascading one after another we cant seem to bring it back online I estimate one minute till warp core breech if we cant get it corrected." Kenneth tried to stabilize himself over the severe shuddering of the ships deck as he headed over to tactical.
The science station exploded in a massive array of sparks and fire as the lights went out and the only source of light was from the blinking red alert. "Mr. Peterman signal all hands to abandon ship I’m not going to have us all killed over a system glitch!!!" Kenneth screamed out. Lieutenant Peterman worked the controls and suddenly the computers voice came over the comn. "WARNING: WARP CORE BREECH IN PROGRESS ALL HANDS ABANDON SHIP!!" Kenneth relived the lieutenant and tapped his comn badge "Captain Kenneth to Engineering I have ordered all hands to abandon ship please proceed to your escape pods and evacuate the ship!!!" Kenneth waited for a response but only static came back through the comn. An explosion near tatical sent him falling to his knees and he immediately picked himself up off the deck and took one final look at the still pristine screen of the Pigin to see the stars swirling uncontrollably around the ship, he then turned and staggered to the turbolift. He expected it to open as he came near it but it was offline. "Computer initiate site to site transport to escape pod number 3!!" he yelled over the intense rumbling and shaking of the ship. "TRANSPORRT ENGAGED." came the computers voice. "Energize!!" Kenneth hollered as he dematerialized from the bridge and rematerialized onboard escape pod number 3. "Is everybody into escape pods!!" barked Kenneth to whoever was looking over the crews mainfest. "Yes sir all hands report onboard all available escape pods sir!!" came a voice somewhere in the mist of the rumbling. Kenneth looked at the controls and shouted "All Hands Disembark the Pigin Now!!" There was a great rush of motion as the escape pod fired away from the Pigin and Kenneth looked out of the port window to see the sleak new starfleet ship swirl in space with her warp naccels blinking uncontrollably as plasma streams expelled from them. He looked on as he saw several of the other escape pods fly away from the Pigin to a safe distance and watched with a great pain to see a test run go so horribly wrong and wondered what system dysfunction could have caused such a wide array of damage. He turned away and studied the readout on just where they were to send for help when a voice from behind him cried out "Captain look!!" Kenneth looked out the port window again to see the Pigin right herself and come to a stop and the plasma stream ceased as her warp engines came back online just as a flash from them sent her back on course to wherever she was going. Kenneth looked on astounded by what he saw He felt confused and anger building up inside as he finally figured out what happened "Lieutenant Get me Starfleet Command Now!!" he ordered angerily
