There has been a complication. Starfleet is no longer content with securing its own borders. They have come for me.

Otto spotted one of their advance scouts in the Raddan system. It bore no identification and no Starfleet insignia which means they have not come to arrest us.

Already, they have taken prisoners without justification. People who have committed no crime. They are suspected of helping my friends and for these agents, that is a just cause.

There is no doubt that they have already left the system, but Starfleet warp cores have a critical design flaw.

They leave trace amounts of tachyon radiation behind, enough so that you can track them to their destination.

Well that’s too bad. I guess I’ll just have to kill you and extract the information from your ship’s logs. I have to say, it’s a lot more fun than the alternative.

Khan was correct, Commander. There are no Starfleet vessels in this system. As per his suggestion, I am running a background scan for tachyon radiation.

Commander, there are several vessels in this system but none of them match Starfleet signatures. It is possible that the agents commandeered an Independent ship to carry out their mission.

We’ve been keeping an eye on you since you helped Khan escape Federation Space. We were hoping our little ruse would draw Khan out, but it looks like he got wise.

Why do you think Khan sent you here? If he was really concerned with "rescuing" the colonists or punishing us, why didn’t he come himself? Or send one of his enhanced buddies?

I’ll tell you why. He knew it was a trap. So he sent you. His expendable little helper.

I’ll be honest, I was really hoping that we’d catch Khan here but I’ll take what I can get. Once I disable your ship, you’re going to lead me right to him.

Look, I’m not with Starfleet, alright? I caught word that a ship was coming here looking for Khan. That payday would set me up for life, so I tailed them here.

I figured I could either ambush them and take Khan for myself but they never found him either, apparently. I waited around when they hightailed it out of here.

It is highly unlikely that you would allow them to leave without analyzing their warp trail, given that you are on an active hunt for their target.

Fine, fine! Their warp trail leads to Rigel. They’re on their way back to Federation space.
