"Into the Serpent's Jaws"

Starfleet Intelligence recruited the Phoenix’s Intelligence team to crack a tracking chip in a bid to locate and detain the wanted criminal Elija Noi. Lieutenant König and Lieutenant Junior Grade King collaborated to build a hacking device to crack the code, and successfully decrypted a trail to hunt Noi. For support, the Chief of Security, Lieutenant Commander Parlac, and three Security officers, Lieutenant t’Tumisa, Ensign Devereux, and Ensign Ashwood, were assigned to the away team. Lieutenant Junior Grade Ciel was recruited for his experimental fungus. The away team took the Chimera for the mission, with the Phoenix and NI’RaH following at distance, to the Oralus IV system. There, they located a cloaked space station where Elija Noi hid himself and his cloning lab. The team infiltrated the station, faced telepathic attacks from the clones within, and fought their way through to find Elija Noi. Lieutenant König was sent through the Jeffries tubes with a psy-null device, rendering him invisible to all telepaths onboard. The plan was for the rest of the away team to serve as a distraction whilst Lieutenant König approached from behind to apply the psy-null device to Elija and nullify his telepathic abilities. While facing off with Elija, two of the away team, Lieutenant Commander Parlac and Lieutenant Junior Grade King, were thought to have died from telepathic attacks, causing Lieutenant t’Tumisa to fly into a rage and attack Noi with her sword. Lieutenant König was successful in attaching the psy-null device to Noi, but did so only seconds before the sword entered his abdomen, killing him. This triggered a self-destruct in the station, and the away team grabbed the three bodies and beamed back to the Chimera before the station exploded.
