Story:Star Trek: Helena/Deployment/Act Three

The Helena, surrounded by other Federation, and Klingon ships approaching the Torros System.

On the Bridge Captain Taylor is sitting in the Captain's Chair as Commander Martin is helping an Ensign with a power relay that was causing an issue with the power grid.

Ens. Sito: Captain the Admiral is requesting a report on our grid, what do I tell him?

Taylor thinks and turns to her.

Capt. Taylor: Tell him we're working on it.

She inputs commands into the console to inform the Admiral of the situation, then Lieutenant Crusher looks at his console and reports.

Ltjg. Crusher: Captain sensors are picking up the Shipyards bearing 213 mark 445 it's in orbit around the planet, I'm also detecting a squadron of Jem'hadar warships.

Captain Taylor gets up from the chair and looks at the viewer.

Capt. Taylor: On screen.

The viewer activates and the crew sees the planet and the shipyards.

Capt. Taylor: Red Alert all hands battle stations.

The lights dimmed and red lights flash and klaxons sound as the crew assumes their battle stations.

Capt. Taylor: All security teams prepare for boarding parties, helm full stop.

Ensign Kaye disengages the engines along with the rest of the fleet, Captain Taylor and Commander Martin look at the viewer showing the shipyards and the planet.
