The Continuing Story of Deep Space 2: Page 70
Personel log - Admiral van Rhee - War log
Several Federation ships have disapeared or their crew is missing. I think there is only one person behind all this, but the question is who, why and where can we find this person. Starfleet is in real trouble if this kidnapping continues or this killing. We are not sure, but there does not seem to be a pattern in the attacks. But we have a clue. The distance between the attacks is almost the same so after the next attack we have an idea where the attacker can go. We could close a net around the attacker and then get him or destroy him if neccessary. This is all theory of course. We have no idea what we are up against...
One thing is for sure. We are at war, and only the Federation has trouble with these attacks. I have already talked to our Deep Space 2 intelligence officers, but as expected those Federation spies don't tell me anything useful. Luckily they are on our side. the only hope the Federation has is that we catch or destroy this enemy soon. I have placed the entire Deep Space 2 fleet under red alert. All personnell is now armed and will fire on anything unusual. Even the station itself is on red alert. The defending droids are in positions and cover every square meter of the station. There is nothing more I can do at this time. The waiting could be long, but as soon as the enemy attacks again, I will send my XO with the USS Ajax to that particular location. The Ajax battle drones should be able to locate the enemy. There is a last option. This Akna and Gorth in our brig... I cannot imagine they have anything to do with this, but if, after a next attack, I will interrogate them personally.
End Log
Somwhere in the universe...
Ensign Kama Decker wakes up. Her head hurts. In fact her entire body hurts and it is like she is tied up with some kind of cable. She tries to free herself, but she does not succeed. She looks around and sees that she is on a bed in a large hall with a lot of beds... rows of beds... there doesn't seem to be an end to the rows of beds. Kama looks to the right and sees a another Starfleet officer on another bed, tied up as well. She doesn't recognise the officer, but at her left there is Lieutenant K'nut, Assistant Chief Engineer on her ship, USS Dragon. Kama tries to remember what happened, but she has no idea. She succeeds in sitting up and looks over the beds with officers and crewmen. They are all unconscious. Why is she not unconscious ? She doesn't know. What is this place ? She doesn't know. But one thing she does know. She has to get out of here. Kama dops herself from the bed. It hurts, but she realises she has no choice. Slowly she is able to get up, jumps around to the bed of Lieutenant K'nut, but she is not able to wake him up. She even bites him, but it doesn't help. The sharp edge of the bed cuts her cable and an hour after she woke up, she is free. Apparently she has not broken anything. Slowly she walks between the beds, trying to wake her fellow officers, but there is no reaction. There has to be a door somewhere... but it seems that there is no end to these thousands of beds. It takes Ensign Kama Decker almost half an hour to reach the wall of the hall. Another twenty minutes of walking takes her to the first door. But the door is locked. there is no mechanisme, nor an access panel. The door, apparently of silver or another shining metal reflects Kama's image and while she looks at herself, she sees in what kind of shape she is. Her black hair is covered with red blood and her uniform is ripped at several places...
Aboard the USS Ajax LT COL Theys has decided it is to dangerous to fire on anything that moves so a message is sent out every ten seconds.
Do not approach this ship. We will fire on you without warning if you approach this ship."
