Deep Space 15

The USS Hades is ordered to head to Deep Space 15 (DS-15) after suspicions of a Cardassian infiltration surfaced among the Admiralty of Starfleet Command.

The initial belief was that in some manner that Captain William Nelson, Commanding Officer of the station had somehow been either replaced or influenced.

With a recent increase in Cardassian activity in the sector, Captain Eva Straton ordered the Hades' security team of Baylon Trinin, Takeshi Katsurou, T'Sol, Mil Nicolea and Tallac Dragovar to begin a series of detailed sector scans and to conduct traffic analysis of all Cardassian activity. This activity kept them very busy as they began their course correction to take them to the station.

Sabotage

A computer core

After discussing the situation with the Chief Engineer Darla Wright, Captain Eva Straton ordered her to sabotage the ship in some manner to generate a reasonable means by which to gain access to the Starbase. In this case under the guise of a critical repair.

After some discussion, [Eion MacLiam]] was given the task to sabotage the Secondary Computer Core, which although not system critical, would require them to put into the Deep Space Station for repairs.

Their arrival guaranteed, additional plans were put into place to continue their investigation. Darla Wright would help to oversee the repairs of the computer core alongside MacLiam. In this way, they could monitor the Station crew as they came aboard to assist the starship's engineering teams handle the workload. Assigned to lead the workteams was Lieuenant Peter Holland.

The Shuttlecraft Incident


"No more whispering! You can't stop me. I know what you are, I know what you're doing. I'll kill you! do you hear me? I'll... Can't you see? I've won. I'll kill you all! "
— Lt Cmdr Evan Stephens, DS15 CSEC


The Shuttlecraft Condor

While the Hades was making it's way to Deep Space 15, the station's security chief, had managed to escape from his holding cell and commandeer a runabout if the hopes of using it to destroy the station, which he had come to realize was infected by unknown parasite. Stephens, however was also suffering from a severe case of Rigelean Fever. It was the fever that allowed him to gain a certain degree of control over his own thoughts and actions that prompted him to escape and attempt the destruction of the station.

Stephens managed to escape from sickbay, and although he also managed to make it off the starbase in a stolen shuttle, his fevered state prevented him from being efficient enough in his actions to actually destroy the station. Captain Nelson, CO of the station destroyed his vessel with a single quantum torpedo.

The Infiltration

Once the Hades had docked for repairs with the starbase, Baylon and Katsurou, disguised as Meldovian pilgrims gained access to the starbase by beaming aboard the Meldovian starship and entering the station via their gangplank.

Once aboard the station, Baylon and Katusrou moved to investigate the quarters belonging to [Rank|Lieutenant Commander]] Evan Stephens.
