Scene: Alien Bridge<br>
Jerran thought a moment about the date which Jenn had read off of the
alien captain's log. He nodded in agreement to her when she said that it
was about 500 years old. Some of the stories he had read about this race
had mentioned a little bit about their dating system, and even though
those stories were over two thousand years old, he was able to
extrapolate them to the time of the log.
While Jenn had been reading the computer log, Jerran had moved over to
what appeared to be the helm console. Leave it to a pilot to find the
helm on an alien ship. The seat was obviously not made for a humanoid,
and Jerran wouldn't have been able to sit down in it without some major
contortions which he might not have been able to recover from.
He tried to access the console, but it was dead. Then Jenn's console
blew up. He rushed over to make sure that she and Cmdr Maril were
alright. "It doesn't look like we're going to get much information from
up here. The helm console hasn't had power running through it for a
couple of centuries, and that computer console looks like it's
irreperably destroyed."
Maril nodded as he thought for a moment. "We're going to have to go down
to the cargo bay. I don't want any of us to go down there alone."
Jerran and Jenn nodded to their XO as they and Dr. Tokk followed him out of
the bridge to the lower decks. As Jerran approached the deck, he pulled
out his phaser and set it for heavy stun, just in case. Jenn smiled
over to him and said, "Ever had to fire one of those, Lt.?"
"Of course. I was in the Bajoran Militia for a couple of years before I
went into the academy. However, I've never had to shoot at anything live
before."
Jenn nodded as she pulled out her own phaser and checked its setting.
The lift stopped at the deck and they tried to get off as the door creeked
open about halfway. Maril had to push it open the rest of the way open
so they could leave. They walked down the corridor to where the tricorder
said the cargo bay was located.
When they arrived, neither of the four officers could believe their
eyes. The huge, thick double cargo bay doors had been torn open, from
the inside...
