DEEP SPACE: "Defiant" - REV. 10/07/94 - ACT FIVE          47.

39   CONTINUED:

	The Soldier works and the main viewer now shows the 
	position of the Kraxon, which is stationary at the moment 
	and flashing.  A few other Cardassian warships are a short 
	distance away, moving slowly back and forth as if looking 
	for something.

					SISKO
				(sotto)
			If it is the Defiant, they're in 
			position to make a run for the Orias 
			system.

					GUL DUKAT
			We still don't know that Orias is 
			the target.  Until we do, I can't 
			risk pulling ships away from other 
			potential targets to chase a... 
			neutrino signature.

	As they watch the main viewer...

									CUT TO:

40   INT. DEFIANT - BRIDGE (OPTICAL)

	As before.  The ship under cloak.  Everyone is quiet, watching 
	the main viewer, which shows a Cardassian warship moving 
	slowly above them.

					KALITA
			They're coming around for another 
			pass.

	Riker paces back and forth a few beats... considers the 
	situation.

					RIKER
				(to Kalita)
			Are there any other ships nearby?

					KALITA
				(off console)
			There are nine Galor-class cruisers 
			about six light years away bearing 
			one eight seven mark zero three five.
