==[ORIGINS] USS HOOD: The Reports Were True==
===by Andy Catterick===
SD: 2261.017
Scene: Bridge IKV DAGGER
“Captain!  Federation cruiser in system.”
“Show me.”  He prayed it was one of the new ships Starfleet had constructed.  He had heard many lies about these new monstrosities and he looked forward to seeing one.  Perhaps he would be able to test it in battle.  One good thing though was the prescence of the Federation warship meant it likely that he had not been sent on a fool’s errand.  “We will beat the ship to the planet.”  He commanded and watched with concealed dismay as his helm officer and navigator traded a look which clearly said they would be late.  “Or one of you will be demoted.”  He growled.  He took a moment to look around the bridge to see if there any challenges.  Unsurprisingly there were none.  His officers knew they had little chance at succeeding.  And, more to the point it did not effect most of them.
Satisfied that he had made the food chain abundantly clear to all he stepped down from his command dais and moved over to the tactical station.  He nodded in approval seeing his first officer was viewing scans of the Starfleet cruiser.  “Report.”
“Scans are only partial at this distance but it is a formidable ship.  Very powerful.  Still much emphasis on science.”  He cursed. “But formidable.”  Like her captain, she hoped to have the opportunity to meet this ship in battle.  But she was smart enough to know this Bird of Prey could not do it alone.  She pointed at one of the readouts.  “The power output is stronger then anything we have seen.  Their weapon systems and defensive shields must be,”  she paused but could not find a better word. “formidable.”
“Perhaps.”  The captain finally answered.  “But Federation weaklings will not know what to do with it.”  He watched as his exec laughed in agreement.  Fortunately for her she had not seen the reports of what this very ship had done to a supposedly superior Klingon squadron.  Looking back at the scans he began to understand.  Not that he could ever admit it. 
The bridge was too quiet he realized.  Stomping back to his command chair he bellowed at his engineer.  “More speed!”
Respectfully,
Andy
