Episode Nine: Wrong us, Shall We Not Revenge

The Human colony on Dellura is under attack by the Romulans and the ships there cannot hold them off forever. The Enterprise is rushing to get there when it is attacked by and alien ship. The Enterprise is forced to stop when several engine parts are beamed off the Enterprise.

The Enterprise is hailed by the alien ship, and find it is the Illyrian’s and captain from 'Damage' (Season 3). He claims he has waited a long time for them to pay back the villainy of Archer when Archer stole vital components off his ship. Archer try's to plead with him but to no avail, and the Illyrian ship warps away. Now the Enterprise has no warp drive and is desperate to get to Dellura before the colony is destroyed.

Archer, already feeling guilty about what he had done, must find a way to restore warp drive. Things onboard the Illyian ship are not too content however. The Illyian first officer questions his captain if the need for revenge is more important than thousands of people potentially losing their life.

By the end of the episode Archer is successful at getting the parts back with some unexpected help from the Illyian first officer. When the Enterprise finally gets to Dellura, it is too late and the colony is destroyed. Archer, with a stone cold expression, puts his head down and quietly walks off the bridge.

(So basically this is a morality play about the need for revenge being more important than possible life or death issues.)

Episode Eight: The Ties That Bind

Okay, this episode is the fan written episode which has been written by yours truly. It is based on a story I am currently writing. I had hoped that I would have had the first 5 chapters done by now to post alongside part 1, but alas, I haven’t (I keep adding to it and making changes *hears Allee’s sigh*). Anyhoo, when I do complete it, I will post it somewhere for everyone’s enjoyment (hopefully).

So what is it about? Mmmm... Not really sure on how to summarize this story (cos I haven’t finished it yet), but it has Shran, and Romulans, as well as our intrepid crew. I’ve tried to incorporate as much as I could, but it was/is a bit difficult to squash it all down to 3 parts, so hence there will be 4, and sadly there are big chunks that had to be left out...

Anyways, I hope you all enjoy. Now on with the story...

Episode Seven: Unless to Spy my Shadow

This will be an episode about Malcolm being summoned by his old 'section' to perform a risky covert mission in Romulan territory.

During the two year un-aired time Malcolm had reluctantly done a mission that may come back to haunt him here. Also, an interesting question is that canon states that the humans have never seen a Romulan face to face until Balance of Terror, but what if there was a section 31 mission that they did see the Romulans, since section 31 in so secret maybe you could get away with it here and not violate anything since it is ultra classified.

Episode Six: Mudd Castles in the Sky

Starfleet, in desperate need of Zenite-B (a derivative form of Zenite used to enhance their ships phasers), sends the Enterprise to the planet Ardana to negotiate with the Ardanians. Upon arrival the crew meet up with Fenton Mudd, a questionable trader and someone who has had a close relationship with Hoshi last year.

Throughout the episode Hoshi mush fend off against Fenton's romantic advances. Mudd explains that the peaceful Ardanians don't like to refine the normal Zenite (used for medicine) into a form used for weapon enhancement. Archer states that they need it or else they won't be able to win the war with the Romulans. Mudd, who has a good relationship with the Ardanians, agrees to help negotiate (for a percentage, of course).

The Ardanians take the crew to the newly constructed city in the sky, Stratos. There the Ardanians explain that their automated mining process will not refine Zenite into Zenite-B and they will need to actually send people to do that (later to be known as the Troglytes). Mudd seeing a good opportunity tries to sneak into Stratos's engineering area to try to obtain the Ardanians high powered anti-gravity technology, things to not go as planned for Mudd. By the end of the episode Archer and the Ardanians reach an agreement and send in people to start mining. So Archer, because of the war's needs, is responsible for setting up the situation that Kirk has to resolve 100 years later.

Episode Five: Avians Over Avalon

The Enterprise receives a signal from the Alpha Century security task force, It seems a Xindi ship has entered there space. The Enterprise confronts the Xindi ship to find that the Xindi humanoid and Xindi Sloth who helped Archer at the end of season 3.

It's seems that the Xindi are chasing evidence that the previous thought to be extinct Xindi Avians may have migrated to Alpha Century and maybe nearby the capital city of Avalon.

Archer reluctantly agrees to help the Xindi with their search, knowing that the humans will be very resistant to the Xindi's presence on AC. Archer must overcome his own peoples xenophobia and find some clues in order to find evidence of the Avians. It will turn out that what they discover will be a surprise to everyone involved! Also in this episode we will see Hoshi have an adverse reaction when she has to deal with a Xindi Reptilian (see Zero Hour, Season 3) during this expedition.
