Sensors lock on a cloaked Romulan warbird hovering near three stolen Vulcan ships in Federation space. Riker demands withdrawal, but phasers rake the vessels, shattering hulls in silent explosions. Brief decloak reveals the predator's sleek lines before it vanishes, leaving twisted debris tumbling through the star-strewn vacuum. Bridge tension spikes as ruthless tactics deny Vulcan recovery.
