Alright, this is the next chapter in the story, comments are always welcome, enjoy :)

Book 2 - Star Trek Predator: SFA, Konoha Style - Chapter 1

It had now been 2 years since the Konoha group were in SFA (Starfleet Academy), they were doing better then expected, and even Naruto was doing well, with help from Sasuke and Sakura of course. There skills were among the best

Chakotay had kept an eye on them during there time at the academy and along with Janeway, they both recommended them for Red Squad

They were now stationed on the USS Thunder, a Defiant class. The ship had 10 officers and 40 cadets, the Captain had command of the ship when ever he needed it and the other officers were SFA teachers, the cadets were given RS (Red Squad) Ranks depending on there scores during there first years at SFA

Sasuke was a LT Commander, Naruto LT and Sakura LT JG, the rest all had ether LT JG or Ensign. These ranks only had meaning on the USS Thunder

The ship was doing a scan of a nebula, Naruto was at the helm under the supervision of a SFA Pilot Officer/Teacher , and Sasuke was in the captains chair along with Captain Tim Jones behind him in case he needed some help or an emergency happened, Hinata was at ops with a science Officer to help her out

Hinata: Scan complete, this nebula is composed of (Insert nebula technobable here) Sir

Sasuke: Very good, lets go scan the planet now , that will complete the mapping of this sector

Naruto: Setting course for Tristar 2 half impulse

Hinata: Captain I'm detecting something...It's a distress call

Roger: (Science Officer) She is right this is a Federation distress call

Sasuke: What?...

Tim: Patch it threw

Unknown Voice: This is USS Vigilant, we are under heavy attack from Breen...There trying...Boarding...scramb...

Tim: Clear it up!!

Roger: Trying sir...

Unknown Voice: They are scrambling our communications...

Roger: We just lost communications sir

Sasuke: Hinata, bring up the Vigilant information

Hinata: Aye...USS Vigilant, Vigilant Class, crew of 30 Medium Combat Frigate

Naruto: What's its armament?

Hinata: 6 x Type X phaser arrays 2 standard photon tubes

Tim: No match for a Breen ship, any other ships in range?

Roger: Negative sir

Tim: Well then, its up to us, put us on yellow alert, Naruto set course for that ship full speed, have security teams and damage control on standby

Naruto: Aye sir setting course, warp 9.5

The ship entered warp

Meanwhile Shikamaru was drinking a cup of root beer and reading his PADD, he then heard the yellow alert

Shikamaru: Sign...Something troublesome is about to happen

Shikamaru had entered the bridge and took Tactical station

Naruto: We are arriving at our destination, dropping out of warp

Hinata: A Breen ship has the Vigilant in tow

Sasuke: Life signs?

Roger: Detecting all 30 human life signs, however there surrounded by Breen

Tim: Looks like they have been captured

Hinata: The Breen ship has just noticed us, its let go of the Vigilant and is coming our way

Sasuke: Red alert, raise shields and prepare for battle

Tim: NO belay that order, raise shields, we are not at war, hail them first

Sasuke: But they assaulted and captured one of our ships

Tim: True but we don't know what caused this situation, so we must try diplomacy first, it has to be the first thing you do

Sasuke: Aye sir...

Hinata: There hailing

Breen Cap: Your trespassing in Breen space, turn around or be destroyed

Tim: I am Captain Tim of the USS Thunder, This isn't Breen space, this is Federation space and you have just captured a Federation ship, explain yourself

Breen Cap: We claim this space as ours, your ships are trespassing

Tim: You cant claim our space, look a Breen ship isn't a match for a defiant class, let go of our ship and leave Federation space and we will let you go

Breen Cap: You are correct, 1 Breen ship isn't enough for a defiant ship, but 5 is

Roger: CAPTAIN, 4 Breen ships just came from around the moon, they were hiding

Breen Cap: Surrender, you are now prisoners of the Breen

Tim: As if, this is an act of war

Breen Cap: Good, that's what we were going for, the Federation is always expanding into other space you are a plague and we must put an end to it

Tim: What are you talking about, we have always been for peace

Breen Cap: You attack everyone you come across, you just call it diplomacy instead of war, you are worst then the Borg, you go around and you bring races into your Federation, you assimilate them into your collective, you use there resource and technology, and they don't even realize they are being assimilated, with the Borg at least you know there true intentions

Tim: Look if you want to take this to the council and speak about this disputed space then I'm sure we can come to an agreement

Breen Cap: You haven't been paying attention to a single word that I have been saying, you will be destroyed !!

Hinata: They have cut communications

Sasuke: Now what

Tim: RED ALERT

Shikamaru: I knew this was going to be troublesome

Sasuke: Told you so

Tim: Roger, can you lock on to the crew of the Vigilant ?

Roger: No sir not yet I have to crack this dampening field first

Tim: Then we will try and give you some time, if we can rescue the crew and destroy the Vigilant we can outrun them, the Thunder is much faster then Breen ships

John: (Tactical Officer) The other ships are now within firing range, there firing

Tim: Evasive manoeuvres

Naruto: Aye sir

The Thunder started trying to dodge the shots, but Naruto was still a beginner

Tim: Damn it Ray take the helm

Ray: (Pilot) Aye sir

He taped Naruto's arm which meant he was going to take over, but right then a torpedo somehow got threw the shields and hit the bridge, the armour prevented a hull breach however major damage was caused, explosions fires. Tim got up from the ground and looked around, John and Ray were down and out

Tim: Medical Emergency on the bridge

Sasuke had been putting out the fires with a fire extinguisher, Naruto got up from the ground and checked ray

Naruto: He is alive

Tim: Naruto retake the helm, I'm going to have to depend on you, Shikamaru take Tactical

They both nodded and sat down at there stations, Naruto somehow started doing better flying, the Thunder was returning fire and causing damage back to the Breen, Shikamaru's natural talent for Tactical gave them an edge

Roger: Done sir!

Tim: Good work, beam them out of there!!

Naruto took the thunder and put it right next to the Vigilant , since they had to lower there port shields he thought we can use the Vigilant as a shield since they were going to destroy it afterward anyway. The plan worked, the Breen tried to fire at the exposed side of the Thunder but they kept hitting the Vigilant

Roger: Transport complete

Tim: Access there computer and activate the self destruct

Roger: Done sir, 10 seconds

Tim: Helm get us out of here Max Warp!

The ship warped away with minor damage just as the Vigilant explodes. The medical teams had arrived to take Ray and John down to sickbay

Tim: Good work Roger, that was fast

Roger: Well...Hinata was the one who cracked the code sir...She was amazing

Naruto: Well done Hinata !! Showing how Konoha Cadets are the best!!

Hinata: (shy voice) Well uh.. You were great too Naruto, by using the Vigilant as a shield saved us from damage

Tim: That's right, great thinking you all did well

The ship was heading towards SB 12 for repairs , Tim was resting leaving Sasuke in command with Roger as supervisor

Hinata: I'm getting a message from Starfleet, its an FNN emergency broadcast

Naruto FNN?

Sasuke: Federation News Network, but why would they be sending us a message

Roger: Its fleet wide...Not just us patching it threw

FNN: The Federation just received a message from the Breen Cardassians alliance that they are declaring war on the Federation, they said that they claim the new systems discovered by the federation 3 years ago

Hinata: That's where Konoha is...

FNN: As a result the Federation is now getting read for war once again with there old enemies, this time they claim to have an other ally, one more powerful then both the Cardassians and Breen combined, the Federation has no idea who this new force is but is confident that they can find a diplomatic way of resolving this, this has been John Doe for the Federation News Network

Roger: My god...War

Sasuke: Do you think its our fault?

Roger: I doubt it, I think it was planed, since before we were force to defend ourselves

Sasuke: Take us to yellow alert

Roger: What are you doing?

Sasuke: Federation regulations state that when ever we are in a state of war, all ships must be at yellow alert

Roger: Nice one, you are correct

Shikamaru: Things are going to get troublesome again aren't they…

Roger: You have no idea...
