ST108 Base:Shuttle Bay 1<br>
Commander Maril placed his tricorder back in
his pocket. He had just
scanned the surface of the shuttlebay wall. As he
shifted his gaze to the rest of
the room, he saw Lt. Commander Koreth striding
over to him.
"Any new information, Commander?" Maril asked
when Koreth was close enough.
"A little, sir. Not much to go on," Koreth
said, not changing the expression on
his face. "The computer access is limited from
this terminal. Files seem to be
accessible and are then protected. However, I
have been able to find some of
the Husnock ships' design specifications. I
copied them onto the tricorder."
"Are there any Husnock ships docked at the
base?"
Koreth shrugged. "We can't tell from here.
That does sound likely, but this
terminal doesn't have access to that sort of
information."
Maril nodded. "I will attempt to explore the
base further through the
transport system. You may use that, look through
the corridors, or stay
here. Just keep a constant link with the Feynman
and notify me of your
whereabouts every two hours. Understood?"
"Yes, sir."
With the orders given, Maril motioned to four
officers and stepped through
the transport access.
Intrabase Transport Hub Alpha
Maril rematerialized with the other officers
in a gray room similar to the
other transport hub he had seen. Although it
seemed like a room over from the
shuttle bay, Maril realized that it might be on
the other side of the base.
Apparently, the Husnock had mastered transporters
to such a degree that they
used them even when going from one place to
another on the base. If this did
indeed become the new Starbase Epsilon, it would
be some marvel.
He turned to the four officers behind him,
who had started to scan the room.
"I will attempt to go to various locations. If I
vanish and do not return within
two minutes, attempt to cointact me. If that does
not work, return to the
shuttle bay by placing your hand on the white
square and thinking of the
shuttle bay. When you have done that, contact
Commander Koreth and follow
his orders."
Maril stepped forward and placed his hand on
the white identifier. Stepping
back, he thought of the computer database. He put
his foot forward...
And it hit the wall. Obviously, Maril did
not have the clearance to go there
Maril continued trying places. He could not
get to the ship docks or the
power core room. He would just have to keep
trying.

Shuttle Bay 1: Shuttlecraft "Cochrane"<br>
"Away Team Commander's Log, Stardate 90324.0000.
Our away team has
searched much of the base that we have access to,
which is mostly just crew
quarters, recreational areas, and maintenance
corridors. While we have
learned quite a bit about the Husnock in our
search, I am still Ixalbi chasing the
ghost light in exploring the main structure of the
base. We can not reach the
command center or any main junction where we could
find anything of use in
determining what this base was used for.
"All who need sleep have had it, and
continued searching. The base is
enormous. Even restricted to nonvital areas as we
seem to be, it would take the
entire crew of the Feynman about twenty-five days
to thoroughly explore it. I
am going to attempt to access the vital areas by
getting close using the
transporters and then entering through doors. We
do know that there are
corridors and a few ladders connecting each level.
Hopefully, we will be able to
get to a vital area in one way or another.
"This base seems to be almost a living
mountain--everything changes more
quickly than we can find it, almost as if there is
a consciousness behind it. I can
not comprehend at the moment the meaning behind
it, but I can tell all is not as
it should be."

NRPG:
Yes, I do actually have a post out. :)
I just wanted to remind about the intrabase
transport system: all the rooms
connect to hubs, so that when you want to go
somewhere you have to go to a
hub, and then choose where you want to go. There
probably could be quick
links (such as from the command center to the
power core), but usually you
have to go to the hub first. I'm not sure it was
clear when I wrote about it, but
that is what I mean.
I know this is still about eight hours behind the
rest of the ship. hopefully,
whoever posts next can bring us up to speed.
