Cheese

Five years have passed since the Confederacy of Vulcan joined with their cousins in the Romulan Free State and established the new Romulan Star Empire in their wake. Since then they have been working to reestablish themselves as a galactic power. Deep inside the upper echelon of the Romulan Government the United Federation of Planets has placed a mole intent on ending the Romulan threat once and for all.

"Current projections indicate that the Romulan Free State will fall within the next decade due to the loss of population and resources due to the emergence of the Romulan Republic. Prior to reunification this would have made the Romulans increasingly desperate and a desperate animal is a dangerous one. With reunification Vulcans will supplant the Romulan hierarchy at which time we will then proceed to cease hostilities and apply for Federation membership. The Federation will have conquered the entire Romulan Free State without firing a single shot.”

It was a dangerous gamble, but may be about to pay off. While escorting the President from a meeting on Qo'noS, Starfleet One has received a cryptic message from the Confederacy of Vulcan. "Cheese." Now the race is on to uncover the hidden meaning behind the message that may determine the fate of the entire galaxy.
