==[ORIGINS] USS HOOD: More Questions Less Answers== | |||

SD: 2260.008 | |||
Scene: Enroute to the spaceport, New Detroit | |||

“Are you saying that he has found a way to make docile augments?” Merrick asked. | |||
“That’s exactly what I’m saying. The formula he has here changes the embryonic growth of the augments brain. Neuroanatomical structures which have been linked to certain behaviors have been stunted, or eliminated.” | |||
“You got all that form a formula I don’t believe it.” DeSimms said shaking his head. | |||
“Think about it John. How often is someone’s behavior altered after a severe head injury? We know that specific areas of the brain control certain behaviors and that brain damage can affect those areas and thus those behaviors.” | |||
“Behavior is more complex than that.” Gar added. | |||
“He’s found a way to genetically keep his augments from developing ambitions of their own.” Corbett said then added in a sterner voice. “Let me make this clear, not only can they can learn, adapt, and reason without conscience, but he has genetically and anatomically taken away their ability to rebel and self direct.” | |||
“Are you telling me he has perfected the augment?” Steele asked. | |||
“That’s precisely what I’m saying.” | |||

Jack leaned back against the side of the truck and replayed what he had just heard. The Romulan’s must be going insane thinking that they lost this madman. If what Stile was saying was true and Jack had no doubt it was based on the evidence the doctor had presented, Romulus was the worst place for a break through of this nature to happen. As far as he was concerned the only reason they hadn’t done something like this earlier was because they didn’t have the technical ability. | |||
Creating augments wasn’t hard, the science after all had been around for centuries. What was hard was exactly as Stile had described it. Controlling them. Now, Romulus could create as many slaves as they needed to all the work they felt beneath them. But even that wasn’t the true horror, at least for the Federation. They could make soldiers in the millions all happy to go on whatever suicide mission there masters told them too. And they walk into the fire all fat and happy. The Federation could never stand up to something like that. No one could. | |||
He wondered if the Klingons knew what they were after. Certainly he could never believe that they would fight their wars with flesh automatons. But they would see the threat that this science would provide. | |||
So why had Sachen run? That didn’t make sense. The Romulans should be bending over backward for him. They should be showering him with credits and teams and facilities whatever it took to make him happy and keep him on the path to their new augment created future. Had he realized what he had done? Had the reality of the situation finally dawned on him and he realized his only chance was escape. Or had he been spirited away by those who feared what his creations would bring. There had to be some on Romulus who would see the reality. | |||
“ | |||
What should he do if they could not capture Sachen? | |||
<<<NRPG>>> | |||
Just some internal questions and turmoil for Jack. | |||
5 days til STO! | |||
