==[ORIGINS] USS HOOD: New Arrivals To The Party==
===by Andy Catterick===
SD: 2262.054
Scene: Station Interior
“Captain!”  Gene Lowl’s excited voice broke through the silence of the moment.  Jack looked over to see Lowl pointing off into the distance while the Gorn beside him stared in the same direction.  Jack looked over to Sean.  “C’mon.”
The two officer’s double timed it  over to the top of the hill where Lowl and his Gorn counterpart had stationed themselves as lookout.  “Captain look at that!”  Gene said exuberantly as he pointed once again.  Off in the distance Lieutenant Ngyuen jogged along a path with a large security detail behind him.  Suddenly he stopped and Jack relized the young officer had spotted them.  He waved frantically for a few seconds before resuming his pace.
“More visssitorsss.”  Bray said as she finally arrived at the hill.
Jack nodded.  “From my crew.  I wonder if the Metrons have granted some mercy.”
“Then where is my relief party?”  Bray asked.
Thirty seconds later the rescue party had arrived.  Nguyen was about to speak but Jack waved him silent as he pointed to a blue shirted crewman.  “McMaster is your tricorder working?”
The young man gave Steele a puzzled look and then flipped it open and waved it over the captain. “Yes sir it does…” His voice trailed off.  “Captain I picking up some sort of…”
“I know.”  He looked to Sean.  “Get him to Corbett.”
Sean grinned.  “On our way.  Come on Tim.”
Jack watched with a relief he hadn’t felt in what seemed like weeks as they raced off.  “Ok lieutenant, give me the highlights for now.”
HOOD is still frozen but we noticed a merchant ship that had crashed into the side of this station.  It appeared to have power so we EVA’d over as a rescue party.  Once we got there we found a hole cut through the hull that allowed us entry into the station.  I thought it best to come looking for you sir.”
“Believe me there’s a whole bunch of people down their that owe you one.  Where’s the merchant ship’s crew?”
“One man crew sir.”  He looked uncomfortably over at the Gorn.  “I’m afraid he was killed sir.”
“Killed?”
“Ripped to pieces.”

SD 2262.055
MD 3.0821
Scene: Metron Sphere
(Shortly before Andy's "New Arrivals")
The operation on Kiska had been every bit as gruesome to watch as Sean had
feared. But in the end, he had stuck by her side as he had promised her. And he
had not thrown up or fainted as he had promises Corbett.
Fortunately for them all, the doctor's skill had carried the day. A mere nine
hours after the procedure and Bray was already showing renewed strength, as were
the other four Gorn they had treated. The day's heroine, Kiska, was sleeping
comfortably under the miracle drugs of 23rd Century medicine.
Exhausted, Sean had just minutes before woken from a nap when Lowel's call came
down. The sight of Nguyen's rescue party filled his heart with an indescribable
hope. Perhaps the Metrons had ended their disruption of the away team's
technology. They could get Kiska and the Gorn back to safety and proper
medical facilities.
But as Corbett ran the tricorder through some scans, he found that one more
surprise was left in store for them on the Metron Sphere.
NRPG: Anyone wishing to cause more trouble for our characters this mission,
write now or forever hold your peace. Personally, I'd like to see Zade and
Corbett hook up.

==[ORIGINS] USS HOOD: We Don't Rip==
===by Andy Catterick===
SD: 2262.055
Scene: Station
“Alright lieutenant report.”  Jack ordered once the rest of the landing party had moved on to join the main group.
As hard as he tried not to Nguyen looked first at the Gorn captain before turning back to Steele.  The Gorn made a sound which startled the young lieutenant but which Jack had learned was a reptilean laugh.  “You have trained your people well Jack.  Your young officer doessss not want to ssspeak sssecretsss in front of the enemy.”
“This Captain Bray of the Gorn Navy, she is a friend and ally.  Report.”
“Uh yes sir.  As I said we noticed the federation merchant ship and we made our way over.  We found a passage way and made our way here.”
“Ship status?”
“Soon after your team left all major systems shut down and we were contacted by someone called the Metrons.  Apparently they had taken you hostage and you were to be placed in some sort of competition with the Gorn.  I’m afraid I don’t have all the details to that captain as I was not in the bridge.”
“And you said the merchant captain was ripped apart.”
Nguyen shuddered.  “Yes sir.  Into very small pieces.  It wasn’t any sort of energy weapon.  Somehting with a blade.”  He turned to Bray.  “Or a claw.”
Bray made the laughing sound once again.  “We do not rip lieutenant.  We pound and squeeze but generally we just use our weapons.  And we do not kill unarmed civilians.  Perhaps your captain took aboard something dangerous before he was captured here.”
Nguyen shook his head.  “I don’t think so.  The captain survived being pulled down to the surface.  He made several logs.  His last log was after he opened a passage way into this station.”
Jack nodded.  “Potentially he could have had something nasty aboard that took its time.  But I think you’re right it probably entered his ship from here.”
“Which meanssss whatever did it is roaming around here.”
“I never did get around to asking you Bray, do you have any information about this station?”
The big Gorn shook her head.  “No.  It crossssed into our ssspace and we came to invesssstigate  asss you did.”
“We whatever our leaders say about who owns this sector it is on course for one of our more populated regions.”
“Then when we essacpe our two sssshipsss sssshall destroy it.”  Bray promised.
<<<NRPG>>>
There you go heading for a classic TOS ending, enemies become friends when they work together.  As Brian said we’re nearing the end so tidy up where necessary.  Once Steve makes some medical prouncements we’ll journey back to our ships after what I’m sure will be some smug comments from the Metrons about how they knew we could work together and maybe in a million years we can hang with them ;-)

Andy
