The ship shuddered violently as a volley torpedoes hit the Challenger like a sledgehamer. Sergio nearly fell off his seat as sparks showered down on him and the bridge. Much to his dismay, the Challenger was now face to face with a huge Klingon Bird of Prey as it just happened to decloak off the Challenger's bow. Sergio frowned. "What could the Klingons want here?" he thought to himself.

 

As far as Sergio was concerned, this Khittomer was just a desolate, isolated little planet on the outskirts of Alpha Centauri. Sergio had no idea why the Klingons would all out attack them like this for one small insignifigant planet. Unless of course, this planet isn't all it's cracked up to be. It was known fact that Starfleet's allies, the Vulcans, weren't all that forthcoming with them.

 

They were always allusive, and avoided shady questions all together. There was no doubt that the Vulcans know what's so special about this planet, but they just never bothered to tell Starfleet about it. Some allies. Sergio thought to himself. Stubbornly guarding their secrets, like is if Khittomer is the Klingon Area 51, or something.

 

But now, it's too late to start wagging fingers and complaining about it. The Bird of Prey continues to relentlessly assault the Challenger as consoles explode and sparks shower down. Everyone knows that the Challenger can not take this kind of damage much longer. The fall in Tactical Officer does his his best to put up a good fight, but it's clear that they're starting to lose.

 

Sergio also hopes the best for the away team down there. Judging by research done on the Klingons, they probably have sent down an away team to deal with the Challenger's on Khittomer's surface. Sergio sighs and wishes he could be down there with them.. but for now, all he can do is wait and wonder just what exactly is down there.
