"Sir, "called one of Kit's specialists, "We have a problem.  My tricorder
indicates that we are being flanked.  Reinforcements are coming in from our
right.  They will be able to get behind us and create a cross fire.  No clear
estimate on how many that are coming around, but it looks like we are facing
about 12 infront of us, possibly 15."

"You!" she yelled, gesturing to half of them.  "Help Team 2!  Forrrget the
damn stuns, use full strrregth and live ammo; take them out!  The rrrest of
you, with me!"  She led the others off to the right.  "Lorrrgash!" she said,
pulling the Klingon to her as they moved  "Do you have those laserrr trrrip
wirrre explosives?  If you do, set them up down the hall and get back herrre."

  He nodded, then ran down the hall to set up his booby trap.  

"Everrryone, find some coverrr and set up an ambush.  Therrre can't be many
morrre than these.  If we can get thrrrough this, we'll be fine."

  Her team said nothing, but scattered to find what ever cover they could.

Finding cover, she set her phaser to kill, max power, and waited with her
team.  

Her trap layer was back in just a few moments, and took cover on the opposite
side of the hall from Kitanya.

  They waited, listening to the fire fight behind them.  The added forces had
helped, but the battle was still quite fierce.  Until everything went quiet. 
Oddly quiet.  Which was punctuated by a high piched hum that only the
felinines could hear, and just barely at that.

  Phasers had gone silent.

  "Sir, we are in the middle of a dampening field of some kind.  It is
rendering energy weapons, like our phasers, inoperable."  reported her tech.

   "Hand to hand it is then."  said another near by.

   {response}

No less than 3 seconds later came the explosion of yelling as the rush
happened.  Obviously the laser triped explosive had failed due to the
dampening field.  It was on...
