Cesahala Ship:Cargo Bay<br> | |||
"This is Maril to Feynman. Before Shendako falls into the sea, please!" the | |||
frustrated FO called out. There was no response. The foe of Tok and Maril | |||
was a huge...being. It was so shiny that even in the dim light of the cargo | |||
bay, it was almost too bright to look at. Maril aimed his phaser and fired. | |||
The beam simply glanced off without a flinch from the being. | |||
Suddenly, Maril noticed a small opening into the outside corridor that wasn't | |||
covered with metal. He pointed it out to Tok and they ran as fast as they | |||
could. Miraculously, they escaped practically unharmed, with only a few cuts | |||
or bruises from the pieces of metal. | |||
"Let's head for Engineering. I have an idea," Maril said to Tok. As soon as | |||
they were safely in Engineering, he contacted the Feynman. "Maril to Feynman. | |||
Are you there?" | |||
[We read you, Commander,] the familiar voice of Commander Zane sounded over | |||
the communicator. [Your status?] | |||
"We were attacked by a being. I will report on it later. Right now, I am | |||
going to shut down the whole ship, including Life Support. I suggest you get | |||
us out of here before it fully shuts off. sir." | |||
[Very well. Feynman out.] | |||
Now speaking to Tok, he said, "This being appears to reflect anything we | |||
throw at it. So, we're not going to give it anything to reflect. Shutting | |||
down all systems except for Life Support and lights in Engineering." | |||
"Maril to Feynman. Prepare to beam Mr. Tok and then myself up." | |||
[Aye, sir.] | |||
Maril was ready. "Beam Mr. Tok up." | |||
"Sir, you should go first," the CMO suggested. | |||
"No, you're going first, Mr. Tok," the FO ordered. | |||
As Tok beamed away, Maril pressed the button to activate the program he had | |||
set up. "Now, Feynman." The countdown started. | |||
"Fifteen seconds to total shutdown...14...13...12...." | |||
Maril could also hear something crashing down the corridor. | |||
"Ten...9...8...." | |||
It was getting closer. | |||
"Seven...6...5...." | |||
It was almost there. | |||
"Four." | |||
It was entering the room. Finally, the beamout occurred. Maril thought to | |||
himself how those must have been the longest 11 seconds of his life. | |||
He stepped off the transporter pad on the Feynman and headed for the Bridge. | |||
As he walked on, signs of relief could be seen on most people's faces. | |||
However, the relief was short-lived. | |||
"Sir, I'm reading explosions occurring on the alien ship. There are more and | |||
more of them as it continues," Lt. Jenn reported. | |||
"Sir! The explosions are reaching the ship. They're pushing us towards the | |||
wormhole!" Lt.<jg> Charles exclaimed. | |||
"Shields up," Maril ordered. After receiving a nod from Zane, he ordered, | |||
"Full reverse until we can go to warp, Mr. Jerran." | |||
"It's not working, sir. We're still going towards the wormhole!" Lt.<jg> | |||
Jerran said with dismay. | |||
"Brace for impact in 5...4...," Jenn ordered. | |||

Lt. Commander Onta Maril,<br> | |||
First Officer, USS Feynman,<br> | |||
aka Max Felsher<br> | |||
NRPG:<br> | |||
All:Well, that solves one problem, opens up another. Hmmm, I wonder where this | |||
wormhole leads. :)<br> | |||
Andy:I hope we *do* get the _Asimov_ back. :)<br> | |||
Kristen:Ein is yours to kill, maim or otherwise disgrace. ;) The other 3 | |||
positions or so, you have to create NPC's. You don't really have to fill the | |||
CSensO or MissOps position, or you could have one NPC cover a couple of the | |||
positions.<br> | |||
Lysle:Sorry I had to get you out of there so quickly. ;)<br> | |||
