Task Force 86: July Report "The Hunted" "Ma'am, we're venting drive plasma!" Lieutenant Chaucer reported, "Warp coil banks alpha, beta and theta in the starboard nacelle are fused." The Operations Management Officer coughed, the smoke tasting bilious and metallic. In his ears, he could hear the sound of fire extinguishers rushing to put out the flames of what was formerly the Engineering console.
