ACTION REPORT : 'Security Sweep of Abandoned Alien Trading Vessel ID #AA900667'
PREPARED BY   : Crewman Telsia Murphy

Notes from the mobilisation briefing:

Derelict trading vessel. Signs are it was attacked about a month ago and stripped of all its
goods.
Coms panels and built in computers etc still present.
Janeway thinks it would be a good idea to strip them out and examine the tech as well as getting all
info from them including star charts.

There are odd chambers at the back of the vessel which need to be checked out first. Four squads,
in 2x2 formation.

It is a big ship, bigger than Voyager, and full of cargo holds and other areas.

Lt Andrews and Ensign Parson to port side, me and Ensign Kirk to starboard.

Action report:

We ported in to a safe chamber about ten metres from the first of the energy signals we were there
to investigate. On advancing into the area we were attacked by 3x Sec-bots and 2x Drill Bots.

We neutralized them and moved on to the next area. Here we were attacked by what the techies are calling
a 'Mining Bot' and two 'Tree Surgeon Bots'.

In the final chamber we were attacked by more bots including a 'Wrecking Bot' that fired hot rivets at
us and wielded a massive wrecking ball.

Thankfully after that we were finished because by then both me and Ensign Kirk were both in need of medical
attention.

Report Ends.

Doctor's Report:

xx Ensign Kirk and Crewman Murphy xx

More redshirts in the medical bay. *SIGH*. Why are the Starfleet issue beds in medbay so narrow? Ensign
Kirk fell out twice, but then, he appears to be an oaf and used to bruises.
Both have been burned by hot metal and are badly bruised but are healing nicely. Once they are discharged
from medbay they should both be given a weeks rest.
I overheard Murphy telling Kirk that she had arranged to be given one of the bots they had been fighting
and listed them to Kirk.

3x Protocol Bots
2x Pleasure Bots
2x Butler Bots
1x Non-lethal Security Bot
2x Engineering Bots
1x Science Bot

Kirk said he take an Engineering Bot if Murphy arranged it. I assumed this was sanctioned by the
Captain so did not enquire. Apparently it would take Murphy's friend in engineering five days to
check over and reprogram the bots.

Report Ends.

DAY 42 (sun)

A day of rest for Paul Kirk. He was thoroughly pampered by Kes in their shared chamber.

DAY 43 (mon)

Another day of rest for Kirk. In the evening he managed to get Kes drunk over their dinner and they canoodled
on the sofa. She got too drunk and had to be put to bed though and they liaison went no further.

DAY 44 (tue)

Another day of rest for Kirk. Kes was rather hungover, but said she had enjoyed her evening and looked forward
to doing it again.

DAY 45 (wed)

Today Kes moved out though, as Neelix had requested she took up quarters next to his on Deck 8.

DAY 46 (thu)

Today Kirk met his new cabin mates, The Delaney Sisters. They didn't seem to think much of him.

DAY 47 (fri)

Today Ensign Kirk reported to Lt. Tuvok.

He was briefed on a mission. Voyager had recently passed by a red dwarf system, had noted an inhabited
M-class planet with a single moon. Since it was a pre-warp civilisation on the planet they did not make
contact.
However having analysed data from the moon Chakotay was going to use one of Voyager's runabouts to go
back and check the moon for dilithium deposits.

Tuvok was suspicious though as he knew Kes had had nightmares as they passed the planet about how it
was going to destroy itself due to using highly dangerous Polaric Ion Energy to power its cities.

Subspace fractures had been noted in the area which could possibly indicate that such an event was somewhere
in the planet's future. Any interference, however well intentioned, would break the Prime Directive.

Lt. Tuvok tasked Ensign Kirk into going with Commander Chakotay and to report his activities via subspace
coms if Chakotay deviated from his mission.

At 1700 hours Kirk reported to Chakotay and they set off for the Markov-Kalto System.

DAY 48 (sat)

The runabout Aeroshuttle arrived in the Markov-Kalto system and Commander Chakotay plotted a course for
the main M-class planet. Ensign Kirk was not overly surprised when Chakotay headed, not for the moon,
but the planet itself.

They then went into orbit and monitored a days worth of radio traffic.

DAY 49 (sun)

Chakotay requested that Ensign Kirk helped him break the prime directive:

'This planet is balkanised and it has only been a year since their was a world war here. The main continents of
Markov and Kalto along with their satellites fought a war that lasted eight years and cost a million lives.
If we give them plans for better energy production (nuclear fission) to one side and not the other it will
spark another war as one side will have a big advantage over the other.

From what I am reading from the subspace fractures and Polaric Ion Energy grid the catastrophy is going to
happen in three days. Possibly we have four days, it is hard to tell.

Given the time limit we have to do a side each. I will do Markov since this is where the catastrophy is
statistically more likely to happen. I need you to go to Kalto.

Firstly work out who the best person is to give the data to. Then work out how to get there. We can replicate
the local currency to help us out. When the data is handed over, use your communicator to contact me and
I'll come and get you in the Aeroshuttle.

I'm afraid we can't let any technology like tricorders or phasers fall into their hands so just take the
communicator. Use the universal translator function to try and blend in as best you can. If asked say you
are from an outlying region of Markov.

We have three days to save this planet. Better get to it Ensign.'
