Tooth and Claw
Reeks: Star Trek: The Next Generation
Doranna Durgin
- Ntignano
- was
- a
- populated
- world
- with
- a
- perfect
- sun
- --
- until
- the
- right
- technology
- fell
- into
- the
- wrong
- hands.
- Now
- the
- sun
- is
- failing
- quickly,
- and
- the
- Starship
- Enterprise
-
- has
- just
- one
- chance
- to
- evacuate
- the
- þeeing
- refugees.
- Captain
- Jean-Luc
- Picard
- must
- succeed
- in
- delicate
- negotiations
- with
- the
- only
- people
- who
- can
- help
- them:
- a
- prickly
- neighboring
- species
- known
- as
- the
- Tsorans.
To
- assist
- in
- that
- effort,
- Commander
- Will
- Riker
- was
- assigned
- a
- very
- different
- diplomatic
- task.
- As
- a
- polite
- formality
- and
- show
- of
- good
- faith,
- he
- accompanied
- a
- young
- Tsoran
- prince
- to
- an
- exclusive
- hunting
- preserve.
- There,
- technology-damping
- Þelds
- and
- some
- of
- the
- galaxy's
- deadliest
- predators
- were
- supposed
- to
- test
- the
- untried
- noble's
- ability
- in
- the
- kaphoora
- --
- the
- hunt.
- But
- the
- shuttlecraft
- didn't
- land
- on
- Fandre;
- it
- crashed.
Now,
- cut
- off
- from
- Tsora
- and
- the
- Enterprise,
- the
- survivors
- of
- the
- disaster
- face
- the
- ultimate
- struggle
- for
- survival.
- Without
- the
- aid
- of
- tricorders
- or
- phasers,
- Riker,
- his
- royal
- charge,
- and
- their
- would-be
- rescuers
- must
- Þght
- for
- their
- lives
- with
- the
- only
- weapons
- they
- can
- muster
- --
- spears
- and
- bat'leth,
- tooth
- and claw.
