When a severe outbreak of Rigelian fever threatens to incapacitate and kill the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise under the command of Christopher Pike desperate measures must be taken.

In route, the Enterprise intercepts a small spacecraft being pursued by a Klingon warship.
On board are two woman, one of which had been captured by the Klingons at an early age and has taken up the mantle of a Klingon warrior.

Her sister, kidnapped her from the Klingons and had hopes of taking her home to the planet the Enterprise is traveling to.

Captain Pike and the crew of the Enterprise suddenly find themselves immersed in a struggle between the Klingons and young woman's home planet as to whom she belongs to.

If she is not returned to her home planet the Enterprise will not get the needed medical supplies to cure the Rigelian fever and if she isn't returned to the Klingons the Federation may find itself at war with the Klingons.
