The crew of the USS Apollo, NCC-71669, is enjoying shore leave on Izar, home to Starfleet’s Tactical School.  Each member of the crew has found something to interest them during the two day stay.  With the Apollo picking up supplies from a nearby starbase, the crew is truly cut off from work, ready to relax.

At the same time the crew is enjoying themselves, a small team of political freedom fighters from a close-by system.  Hoping to cast a light on their situation, this team of people has the skills to make it a very bad day.  They are gearing up for something, but what?
