SCENE Somewhere out in space
The entity continued to seethe, waiting for the right opportunity to strike. It
had waited long enough; soon the metaphor-being would be in its power. There
was no way to stop it this time. Its power was much greater closer to the source.
Soon, it would have control of the humanoid and its vessel with it.
USS Feynman:Bridge
Maril felt a shiver pass through his body, as though he had just woken up from
a dream. He looked around him, but everything was fine.
"Are you okay, Commander?" Captain Zane asked, looking up from his
armrest console.
"Fine, sir," Maril replied, trying to look relaxed. "Just a breath from Kirerdo."
Zane nodded knowingly, although his eyes still focused on Maril for a second.
Slowly, he turned back to the armrest.
Maril still felt strange, though. That shiver had been no ordinary shiver. It had
been colder, almost like an icy grip that had grabbed him without warning.
"What the-" came Lt.(jg) Allard's voice from behind.
"Is there a problem, Lieutenant?" Maril asked curiously, turning his head, as
the Captain swung around to look at Allard.
"Ah, no, sir, just a bump in the level of graviton particles about 5 AU's to our
starboard for about three seconds. It was probably just a sensor glitch, if it was
anything."
"Get someone to check on that, Lieutenant," Zane ordered calmly.
"Aye, sir."
As Zane looked back at a PADD and Allard talked to a junior officer about the
sensor array, Maril wondered: was there something really happening, or was he
just seeing reskolins in the waves?
MD 4.2000
After a few moments of whispering between Zane and Maril, Zane finally got
out of his coveted chair and walked into his Ready Room. Maril didn't sit down in
it, however. Although he would have liked to, it was past his shift, so he simply
announced:
"Alright, ALPHA shift is over, BETA shift crews take stations. Lieutenant
Meleah, you have the Conn."
Meleah looked surprised as she got up from the science station and sat down
in the Command Chair. That was odd; Maril doubted that the android had
forgotten about her shift. Perhaps it was part of her emotion program.
MD 4.2100
First Officer's Office
Maril glanced at the information collected at the Serapis's destruction site.
Remembering the cold grip he had felt earlier, he shivered again. Would this
feeling of dread never go away?

NRPG:
So, that's that.
Sorry for not posting in a while.
I'd estimate that we'll reach the edge of Issashi space at about 6.1200. This
would agree with Andy's post which said it would be over 36 hours to the nearest
system along that heading. (FYI, Jerran has the shift after Meleah, and Jenn and
Koreth have BETA and GAMMA shift the next day.
A weapon which would destroy our SIF would definitely be dangerous. I was
reading my tech manual and it seems that if our SIF/IDF fails, the most we can
accelerate is 30 m/sec/sec, while full impulse speed can sometimes cause
accelerations more than 300 times that.
My best guess on exactly how this weapon would work is that the ytterbium would
somehow react with the ceramic-polymer composite that conducts the SIF,
thereby not allowing the SIF to operate (since there would be no way to create it.)
