==[ORIGINS] USS HOOD: Waking Up to a Bad Nightmare==

Scene: Pyramid Object, Valorum IV
"Ugh," Merrick said as he roused himself from the cold floor.  "I have the worst headache."  Then he looked up and was pretty sure he was about to die. 
Half of the landing party was flat on the ground unconscious or worse.  The other half ...
Not five feet from him, Gar was using a K-bar sized knife to dissect the twitching body of one of the security team redshirts.  At first he wasn't sure what for.  Then the andorian started stuffing handfuls of human meat into his mouth.  Beyond him, a few other presumably "inhabited" crewmen were feasting in like fashion on their fellows.
Like a frightened kid, Merrick scrambled back to the nearest wall and took in the horror of this "dining hall."  There were scores of half-consumed corpses strewn everywhere.  It looked like half of the archeology team had been served up in there. 
He couldn't see Corbett and DeSimms.
Then Merrick realized that he was completely unarmed, without a communicator, and that there was, in fact, no obvious exit to the room. 
"Oh dear God," he gasped.
Slowly, Gar looked back at him.  He uttered through a mouthful of somebody's innards, "Don't expect God to help you now."  And then Gar jack-knifed his blade straight into the Merrick's thigh. 
NPRG: Your punishment for your sins Scott is ... demon possession and cannibalism.  Unfortunately, Merrick is next on the menu.  So you tell me?  Nightmare or Star Trek hell?  Presumably, Merrick is the only one unpossessed because of the drug.  Why he woke up so quickly from it ... we'll presume a failed attempt at possession jump started him.  That's my third confirmed redshirt by the way.
