[[File:Purple-nebula.jpg|right|frameless|150x150px]] On her first mission aboard the ''Artemis-A'', the senior officers engage in a combat drill in the [[Paulson Nebula]], with half of the bridge crew manning the ''Artemis'' and the other half using the smaller ''Reliant''-class cruiser, the [[USS Berlin|USS ''Berlin'']], on loan from Captain Martin. However, the drill is halted when Suliban saboteurs utilize the sensor-impeding effects of the nebula to sneak their way onto the ''Artemis'', sabotaging her systems and leaving her dead in the water. While Gila was not initially part of the drill - being a newly-arrived Ensign - she was called to the Bridge to assist in countermeasures when [[Addison MacKenzie|Captain MacKenzie]] realized what was happening. Together with the Captain, [[Yogan Yalu|Lt. Commander Yalu]] and [[Jovenan|LtJG Jovenan]], Gila worked on an antidote to a knockout gas laced with the hallucinogenic compound Felicium, which had knocked out three decks' worth of crewmen, and then assisted with the defense of both the ''Artemis'' and the ''Berlin'' as combat with the Suliban ship - the ''Sarna'' - officially commenced.

''Captain MacKenzie wouldn’t have gotten a more immediate physical reaction from Gila if she had physically beaten her. Her eyes dimmed, her finger - previously twisting her anxiety ring desperately - grew calm and still and she turned to face her console.''

[[File:Both Sides Now (Artemis).png|left|frameless|150x150px]]A relatively uneventful mission in the Borderlands seemed a great follow-up to the Suliban incident, but little did Gila know that in another universe, another Gila - [[Gila Thevn|Gila Thevn]] - was fighting for the fate of an entire galaxy. Following a daring heist aboard a starship known as a 'World Ender', the CIC ''Desdemona'' - the vessel Gila Thevn served on - and the World Ender itself was transported to this universe. After the Artemis handedly dealt with the World Ender, the ''Desdemonan'' Crew - which curiously consisted of mostly mirrors of the ''Artemis'' crew - was welcomed onboard the Artemis as guests while their Starfleet counterparts helped repair their damaged ship. The crew of the Desdemona unfortunately took it quite personally when the Artemis' Brass was unwilling to get mixed up in another universe's politics by aiding them in their war against the Shint, and they initiated a takeover of the ''Artemis''.

Unbeknownst to Gila, her superior officer, Cmdr. [[Genkos Adea|Genkos Adea]] had already been replaced by his counterpart, but when Lt. [[Jovenan|Jovenan]] realized this, after Gila reported a series of confusing changes to the Commander's personality and workplace behavior, the two of them used Gila's emergency override codes to gain access to [[Genkos Adea|Cmdr. Adea]]'s quarters and rescue him. They then teamed up with [[Addison MacKenzie|Cpt. MacKenzie]] and [[Vitor Silveira|Lt. Silveira]] to retake the Bridge, which had been commandeered by Silveira's counterpart, Victor Olivera. While there, Gila took to the Operations Console to check in with the other departments and provide a real-time update to the Captain on how the liberation of the ''Artemis'' was going. While on the Bridge, they were alerted to an explosion in Sickbay that had critically injured [[Hiro Jones|Counselor Jones]], were able to stop an impromptu escape attempt by the Desdemonans remaining on board their own vessel, but could only watch as Lieutenant Colonel Genkos Adea - [[Genkos Adea|Cdr. Adea]]'s imposter - evaded capture in a Starfleet shuttle and promptly warped out of the system.

As the ''Artemis''' scientists conducted research aimed to send their counterparts back to their own universe, Gila took the time to head to the Brig and speak to her counterpart face-to-face. [[Gila Thevn|Gila Thevn]] had been the one responsible for setting the explosive device in Sickbay, and as Gila struggled to understand and accept the fact that a fellow Doctor could commit such an act, her counterpart could only sneer in return. They were dooming an entire galaxy to extinction. What was one life in comparison to that?
<hr><br>
<center>'''''Thevn''': Oh, but you are. ::smacks her hands against the forcefield:: The weasel forced the snake into a corner, and then cried when the snake bit back. Hah! You all make me sick. ::neutral expression:: Enjoy your morality, Gila Sadar, as you live your life knowing that you’ve doomed an entire galaxy to certain death.''

''Gila felt her eyes burn, her throat run dry.''

'''''Sadar''': Why did you set that bomb?''

''Gila Thevn - her twisted mirror - smiled grimly.''

'''''Thevn''': I wanted to kill a Doctor. A pity I got the wrong one.''<br></center>

[[File:Alternate History Icon (Artemis).png|right|frameless|150x150px]]At the tail end of a shoreleave on Betazed, the entire crew of the USS ''Artemis'' are waylaid by an old enemy of [[Addison MacKenzie|Cpt. MacKenzie]] and her fellow crew from the [[USS Excalibur-A|USS ''Excalibur'']] - a member of the Q continuum known as CloQ. Determined to play a devious game with the assembled officers, the Q displaces the crew at different points in time, marooning Gila, [[Genkos Adea|Cmdr. Adea]] and [[Jovenan|Lt. Jovenan]] in the [[Genkos Adea|Commander's]] childhood home during the Dominion War. Or, at least, an alternate version of the Dominion War - one where Betazed is occupied by the Dominion, and [[Genkos Adea|Cmdr. Adea]]'s child version was sent to a camp. While there, they encountered the alternate child-version of Tevet Elain, a childhood friend of the [[Genkos Adea|Commander's]], who ran an impromptu pet kennel for all the displaced pets of the city in his basement.

While searching for information about this alternate reality that they had been sent to, Gila and her senior officers realize that this reality was brought about by way of the Romulans not joining the Dominion War in time to turn the tables on the Alliance's enemies. Without their added firepower, the Dominion War is still ongoing, with the Dominion having gained a great amount of ground in the Beta Quadrant. After a confrontation with CloQ in his father's study, [[Genkos Adea|Cmdr. Adea]] initiated a house-wide search for a 'window', a method of travelling that occasionally cropped up during encounters with CloQ. They managed to locate such a schism, which connected to Ki Baratan - the capital of the long-dead world of Romulus - a year prior. Leaving Tevet to guard the window in her own time, the officers jumped through.

In Ki Baratan, the group joins up with the newly-arrived [[Gnai|Ensign Gnai]], who'd been displaced to this moment in time, seemingly on its own. While there, the group realizes that Senator Vreenak is returning to Ki Baratan in order to settle the political debate on what position the Romulans will take in the war, and the Senator will favor the Dominion. To [[Genkos Adea|Cmdr. Adea]], there is but one remaining course of action. They must prevent the Senator from convening with the Senate by force. As the group starts working on disguises to better traverse Ki Baratan, the [[Genkos Adea|Commander]] realizes that the building they were transported to is connected to the planetary defense turret, which is quickly chosen to be the blunt instrument of their clumsy timeline surgery. The attempt is hamfisted at best - complicated further by the difficulties involving disguising Gila and [[Gnai|Ensign Gnai]], the actual technological know-how required to take control of the turret and the conniving finesse necessary to frame the Dominion for the Senator's untimely death - and when [[Genkos Adea|Cmdr. Adea'']] finally shoots down the approaching shuttle, it goes careening straight towards the turret, crashing the four Starfleet officers under it's massive weight.<br>

Or so it should have.

Not interested in losing any of their game pieces, CloQ shuffles the boards, and Gila is summoned to their domain alongside [[Talos Dakora|Lt.Cdr. Dakora]] and LTs [[Jovenan|Jovenan]] and [[Vitor Silveira|Silveira]]. CloQ engages the Starfleeters in a bit of taunting back-and-forth, before revealing that the assassination attempt was unsuccessful and ultimately unnecessary, resulting in an even worse timeline than the one they'd been originally moved to. Gila and [[Jovenan|LT Jovenan]] despair at this, but CloQ offers them a final way out: If they can discover what was actually supposed to happen to the Senator,  CloQ will reset the timeline back to its original state. This quest prompts CloQ to take the four Officers on a guided tour of the Deep Space Nine of 2374, frozen in time. Through sleuthing and hacking and trespassing the four Officers reveal the scandalous truth behind the successful war against the Dominion: Captain Benjamin Sisko, venerated war hero and Emissary of the Prophets, enabled, if not ordered, the unlawful assassination of a Romulan Senator, after unsuccessfully attempting to forge evidence that would pit Romulus against its Dominion allies.

Keeping their word, CloQ reunites the crew of the USS ''Artemis'' on their vessel, just outside of present day DS9, and leaves them to ruminate on their experiences and trails at the hands of the mercurial Q...

She could not see the screen that the Lieutenant and Commander could, but she was able to see outside the translucent dome above them, even if the dark ambient lighting was muting visibility significantly.

''Gila swallowed, even as she felt the truth stab into her heart.''

'''''Adea''': Okay… Wish me luck.''

'''''Gnai''': ::to the second floor:: Good luck! ::to Sadar, after a beat:: This feels wrong...''

[[File:Frontier Day Icon (Artemis).png|left|frameless|150x150px]] <center>'''Phase One'''</center> En-route back to Sector 001 for the [[Frontier Day]] Celebrations, the crew of the USS ''Artemis''-A makes a startling discovery: their vessel has been sabotaged, and just in time for them to happen upon a derelict Borg Cube in the [[Badlands]]. Never one to put much stock in coincidences, Captain [[Addison MacKenzie]] splits her team in two. One team stays aboard the ''Artemis'' to repair the damage and intercept the saboteur(s), while the other team boards the Cube and finds out what its doing here. To Gila's great astonishment and annoyance, she's put on the Cube Team alongside the Captain, Lt.Cdr. [[Salkath]], LT [[Jovenan]], LtJG [[Savel]] and Dr. [[Quentin Beck|Beck]], who has hitched a ride with the Earth-bound ''Artemis''. Heading over to the Borg Cube, Gila recalls a medical breakthrough from her early days at the SB118 Medical Academy, when [[Sheila Bailey]] - the then-CMO of [[Starbase 118 Ops]] - invented a serum that could cure assimilation. Taking her advice to heart, Cpt. [[Addison MacKenzie|MacKenzie]] orders both Gila and Dr. [[Quentin Beck|Beck]] to bring multiple vials of the serum.<br>

The team beams over to the Cube, which appears abandoned. The team still decides to proceed with caution, but are soon caught in the troubling situation that they lose contact with the ''Artemis''. Whether this is an effect of the Cube or if the saboteurs have damaged even more systems aboard their Ship, the group isn't sure. Their tricorders indicate that no Drones are aboard the Cube, but when the group happens upon a lone Drone wandering through the corridors, they realize with alarm that they can't trust their equipment. As the group decides to stalk after the Drone - hoping to get some answers - Gila gets to work on modifying her tricorder to get the Drone's lifesign to accurately show up. She eventually accomplishes this mission, but instantly regrets it, as multitudes upon multitudes of Borg lifesigns suddenly appear on their tricorder's display. As it turns out, the Cube is by no means abandoned, instead containing more than 80.000 Drones that are all congregating in the very center of the superstructure. Motivated by the classically suicidal Starfleet attitude of 'let's find out what that is', Cpt. [[Addison MacKenzie|MacKenzie]] leads her team towards the center of those many thousands Drones, and upon arriving, locate a large central chamber with a glowing artefact in the middle.<br>

The team attempts to discover the nature of the powerful green glow at the center of the chamber, but this is when their presence is finally registered by the Borg, and the group suddenly find themselves the targets of many '''MANY''' Drones, triggering their flight away from the central chamber. Functionally trapped aboard the hostile cube which is rapidly powering up, the team starts brainstorming ways to get in contact with the still-silent ''Artemis'', but are soon interrupted as a brilliant green light bars their way further on.<br>

Transwarped across thousands of lightyears, a group of crew from the far-away [[Amity Outpost]] - led by Lt. Commander [[Robin Hopper]] - appears before the confused Artemisian officers, just in time to join the hasty retreat away from the Borg Drones. Lt.Cdr. [[Robin Hopper|Hopper]] informs them that they followed some Changeling infiltrators who had managed to gain access to the restricted laboratories in the basement levels of [[Amity Outpost]] and steal some classified technology. Realizing that there's a very real chance the Changelings and the Borg are cooperating, the now rather sizeable contingent of Starfleet officers split up into two groups: one to locate a way for them all to get off of the Cube, and one team to track down the Changelings and discover the plot unfolding before them. Once more, as though the Wheel of the Universe itself aims to break her mind, Gila is put on a direct collision course with disaster, as she joins the team pursuing the Changeling saboteurs further into the Cube itself.<br>

While giving chase to the Changelings, the team happens upon a strange room in the Cube filled with alcoves manned by dead Drones, seemingly restrained immediately prior to their demise. The team is locked within the room by a couple of Drones barring the exit with a forcefield, and while the others work on disabling the forcefield and dealing with the Drones beyond it, Gila and [[Quentin Beck|Ensign Beck]] work on identifying what had happened to the dead Drones. Gila note a peculiar disk-like contraption that seems foreign to the Cube's technology, but despite finding it oddly familiar, she has a difficult time pinpointing where she's seen it before. Soon - sooner than the two Doctors are able to identify a cause of death for the many drones in the encoves - the team moves on, eager to catch up to the Changelings. But the team is met with more than they bargained for when they locate the Changelings in the Borg Queen's Antechamber. The group attempts to listen in on the discussion without being noticed, but the Queen's mastery of the Cube's systems proves unparalleled and the group of Starfleet officers soon find themselves at gunpoint by dozens of Borg. The Queen attempts to reassimilate [[David Flint|LtJG David Flint]] - an ex-Borg serving on Amity Outpost - causing enormous stress to the Starfleet officers as they're escorted away by their former friend and the other Drones.<br>

Realizing that she and the other officers have limited time, Gila decides on a gamble. The Borg Serum was a powerful neurosedative aimed at quieting Borg Technology, so if she administered too much to the partially assimilated Lieutenant, he'd be knocked out cold and unable to assist them. But if she managed to alter the dosage just right, he could utilize his updated knowledge on the Borg's plans and systems to turn the odds in their favour. As the Drones started drawing biological samples from Gila and a number of the other officers, her panicked mind hastened through pharmacological calculations, as she made the gamble of a lifetime. The dosage turned out to be just what [[David Flint|LtJG David Flint]] needed, and managing to tune out the assimilating properties of his Borg implants, he sets to sabotaging the Borg from the inside-out.<br>

With the Borg shield matrix compromised, the group of Starfleet officers manage to escape from their impending demise, and in a last-ditch effort to sabotage the Borg Cube and open a window for the ''Artemis'' to exfiltrate them, the group decides on a massive gamble. By pouring Anti-Borg Serum directly into the Cube machinery, they could trigger a massive explosion which would serve as quite the distraction for their escape. Volunteering for the dangerous task of administering the serum to the internal machinations of the Cube on account of him self-administering the Anti-Borg Serum for fear of assimilation, [[Quentin Beck|Ens Beck]] completes his task and is almost consumed by the explosion, if not for the timely intervention of the ''Artemis'' transporters.<br>

Back aboard the ''Artemis'', Gila rushes down to Sickbay alongside most of the complement from Amity Outpost in order to tend to their injuries. Chiefest of priorities is the cranial surgery of [[David Flint|LtJG Flint]], for whom the Anti-Borg Serum has reduced his implants to dust and rust, leaving the transponder in his brain to causing major bacterial infections if not attended to. Performing major surgery while on a Ship actively engaged in combat with a Borg Cube is easier said than done, but thankfully, the talented Doctors of [[Jansen Orrey|Dr. Orrey]] and [[Quentin Beck|Dr. Beck]] are able to reinforce her in the zero-gravity suite, and the surgery goes off without a hitch... Just in time for the ''Artemis'' to follow the transwarp signature of the Borg Cube towards Sector 001, the Sol System...<br>

<hr><br>
<center>''oO C-Concentration of 0.5mg/ml, 1.4 divided by 0.5 equals- Oo''

''Gila wasn’t certain why only some of their number had biological samples taken, though her experience as a scientist indicated that it was for no good reason whatsoever. She witnessed as Drones approached the alcoves and the samples of blood they had taken from her and the other Officers were input into a genetic sequencer of some kind. Not promising. Maybe it was a new method of assimilation - nothing Gila had ever seen before - and she was reminded of her and Doctor Beck’s theory of the Borg experimenting. Was the reason that the deceased Borg had no data in their implants that they had died from the experiment?''

''oO 2.8 ml Oo''

''Gila didn’t have an answer, and she doubted she’d be able to arrive at one before it was too late. But before then - before she’d lose all sense of self and right and wrong - there was one thing she could do, to give at least one of them a chance. And as the Drones were occupied, she walked quietly towards the familiar ex-Borg - or was that fully Borg now? - in the red uniform, raising her hand with the concealed hypo and pressing it to the back of his left upper arm, as close to the brachial artery as she could. She only hoped her calculations were right.''

[[File:Galaxyclassflyby.jpg|right|frameless|150x150px]] As the ''Artemis''-A arrives in Sector 001, it meets up with the USS ''Kitty Hawk'', whose Captain - [[Roshanara Rahman]] - has made some alarming discoveries about the Changelings' degree of infiltration into the Starfleet Command Structure. Realizing that they can't be certain who to trust, nor the degree of chaos that the Borg/Changeling plot will unleash in the Sol System, some personnel exchanges are made, with Gila and Ens [[Gnai]] being sent to board the ''Kitty Hawk'' alongside the majority of their unwilling guests from the Delta Quadrant. Barely has Gila and the Ensign arrived in the ''Kitty Hawk'' transporter room, however, before the true terror of the Borg Queen's plans becomes apparent. Ens [[Gnai]]'s exosuit is assimilated into the Collective - along with [[Kaito Moore|LtJG Moore]], [[Samantha Richards]] and [[Niev Galanis|Ens Galanis]] - and the unsasimilated are faced with the very real prospect that they are about to get murdered by their friends and colleagues. Gila reluctantly joins the flight from the transporter room, realizing that there's very little she can do to save the still-unassimilated Galadoran trapped within its own suit - and she follows the Amity Outpost crewmen into the Jefferies' Tubes to make a plan.<br>

It is decided that Gila accompany [[John Carter|Lt.Cdr. Carter]], [[Ikaia Wong|Dr. Wong]] and [[Jansen Orrey|Dr. Orrey]] to Sickbay to look into the possibility of synthesizing more Anti-Borg Serum. Despite the fact that the Collective has long since adapted to the anti-assimilation components of the serum, it remains a powerful sedative, and one of the few viable weapons against the drone onslaught. They are temporarily hindered by the fact that numerous Drones fill the hallway between the Jeffries' Tube and Sickbay, but [[Ikaia Wong|Dr. Wong]] utilizes the unconventional infrastructure of the ''Kitty Hawk'' to their advantage. Utilizing holoemitters to project dozens of copies of himself into the hallway provides the cover necessary for the small group to sneak into Sickbay unimpended, just in time for them to rendezvous with [[Roshanara Rahman|Cpt. Rahman]] and her team of officers.<br>

In Sickbay, Gila, [[Jansen Orrey|Dr. Orrey]], [[Ikaia Wong|Dr. Wong]] and [[Torvi Ylvor|LtJG Ylvor]] are tasked with finding the cause and the solution to the Borg problem, but their research receives routine interruptions, first by the arrival of a half-assimilated [[Alora DeVeau|Cdr. DeVeau]], who's been hiding away in the Jeffries' Tubes, and then by [[Torvi Ylvor|LtJG Ylvor]] undergoing her own rapid assimilation into the Collective. The research team is under active fire by the assimilated Security Officer, when more complications beam into Sickbay. An unconscious [[Rebecca Iko]] and a de-suited [[Gnai]] suddenly appear in Sickbay, providing the already pressured medical team with even higher stakes. [[Jansen Orrey|Dr. Orrey]] and [[Alora DeVeau|Cdr. DeVeau]] manage to lure away [[Torvi Ylvor|LtJG Ylvor]], while [[Ikaia Wong|Dr. Wong]] and Gila barricade themselves into the CMO's office alongside the unconscious Klingon and the motionally stunted Galadoran. Using the data they managed to collect before everything went wrong, the team manages several key things while barricades in the CMO's Office. First, they manage to resuscitate [[Rebecca Iko|Lieutenant Iko]]. They also manage to replicate a backpack for easy transportation of Ensign [[Gnai]] and cure [[Ikaia Wong|Dr. Wong]] of his Borg Allergy via a new medication they moniker "Borghistamines". Rapidly running out of ways to assist the Ship from the safety of Sickbay, [[Ikaia Wong|Dr. Wong]] calls for action. It is time they retake the Bridge.<br>

Joining up with [[Ikaia Wong|Dr. Wong]] and [[Rebecca Iko|Lieutenant Iko]], [[Gnai|Ens Gnai]] and Gila crawl through the Jefferies' Tubes to head towards the Bridge. The assimilated crew on the Bridge - [[Annamae Barberra|Crewman Barberra]], [[Indrid Yirah|LtJG Yirah]] and Ens  [[Gnai]]'s Exosuit - are distracted when the main viewscreen is suddenly hijacked by a rogue signal, showing a taunting [[Ikaia Wong|Dr. Wong]], and immediately followed by the triggering of a distraction involving an ''ungodly'' amount of silly string. The four unassimilated officers come onto the Bridge in the ensuing confusion, and violent conflict ensues. [[Gnai|Ens Gnai]]'s Exosuit zeroes in on the backpacked Galadoran and starts chasing Gila - who carries it - around the Bridge, and while she is successful at evading it for a time, it eventually catches up with her, gripping onto her arm with crushing force. As fear and adrenaline courses through her veins, large, black serrated mandibles shoot out from the roof of her mouth, cutting through the metallic chassis of the Exosuit's shoulder joint, and rendering it incapable of continuing pursuit. Paralyzed with fear at not only the situation, but also herself, Gila moves as though puppeteered by [[Gnai|Ens Gnai]]'s instructions as they administer the Borghistamines to [[Indrid Yirah|LtJG Yirah]] before assuming control of the ''Kitty Hawk''s saucer section, which is in chaotic descent towards the surface of the Moon.<br>

[[Ikaia Wong|Dr. Wong]] takes center chair and team team initiates a desperate gamble involving the usage of tractor beams to push the saucer against the Moon's surface, hopefully softening the crash even just slightly... The plan is nominally succesful, and in the aftermath of the crash, their small team splits up further. [[Ikaia Wong|Dr. Wong]], [[Rebecca Iko|LT Iko]] and [[Indrid Yirah|LtJG Yirah]] depart the Bridge to follow the escaping [[Annamae Barberra|Crewman Barberra]], while Gila and [[Gnai|Ens Gnai]] remain behind on the Bridge to coordinate relief efforts for the surviving unassimilated crew members. Now somewhat in control of her own faculties once more, Gila uses the internal transporters to remove assimilated lifesigns from Sickbay before directing the unassimilated in that direction, but her task is soon interrupted by an ungodly sound coming out of the Turbolift: assimilated drones are climbing up towards them.<br>

Gila attempts to hide from the drones while carefully making her way towards the opposite turbolift, but soon enough, the drones notice her and start shooting at her and [[Gnai|Ens Gnai]]. They barely manage to get into the turbolift before a phaser burst would've connected with Gila's back, and they desperately set the turbolift into motion towards Sickbay. The Drones prove persistent hunters as they follow the turbolift from above, violently prying open the mainentenance shaft on the top of the lift. Gila and [[Gnai|Ens Gnai]] make a mad dash for Sickbay, which - unfortunately - has been barricaded by the survivors they themselves sent that way. Gila desperately attempts to gain access as [[Gnai|Ens Gnai]] thanks her for keeping it safe following its suits malfunction, when the assimilated drones approach, weapons raised.<br>

As their lives pass before their eyes, death all but assured, the assimilated officers suddenly fall unconscious to the ground as the signal that had kept them under Borg control cuts out... Just in the nick of time.

<hr><br>
<center>''She reached for her mouth to attempt to remove the blades, when a thunderous clap resounded in the inner core of her body as a single metal arm fell to the floor, slipping out of the crippling restraint of the black blades that quickly swung back towards Gila. She wanted to scream, but couldn't - her jaw was still dislocated and her mouth still full of bone - as she saw the sharp edges fly towards her head at great speed. Only, they never touched her. Instead, they returned to the deep purple roof of her open mouth from whence they'd sprung to life in the first place, and Gila fell to her knees, trembling fingers locating her still dangling jaw...'' 

'''''One of Eleven''': ::To Eleven:: Cancel separation.''

'''''Eleven of Eleven''': Unable to comply. Damaged. Da-Damaged.''

''And upon her kneeling, trembling form looked the nightmarish form of herself, clad in black leather and looking upon her with cold and dark in her eyes. It represented all that she'd feared becoming for the better part of a year. And Gila knew, instinctively, that had this happened to a humanoid, to someone of flesh and blood, not metal and wires... They would be dead. And the self-fulfilling prophecy - the one her people had anticipated and shunned her for - would have become irreversible.''

[[File:Wolf_in_Sheep's_Clothing_(Artemis)_-_Icon.png|left|frameless|150x150px]] The ''Artemis''-A returns to the Borderlands and are immediately tasked with locating a missing freighter. The ''Tritorian'' - a mysterious civilian vessel with no crew or cargo manifests to speak of - has gone missing in the vicinity of the Celendi Nebula, which is currently extraordinarily radioactive. Working only by a very scrambled and unhelpful distress signal, [[Addison MacKenzie|Flt.Cpt. MacKenzie]] and her crew attempts to locate the vessel, but that's easier said than done. Gila, meanwhile, assists [[Kyle Morgan|LT Morgan]] in Sickbay to prepare them both for the extensive task of inoculating the entire Artemisian crew against radiation while also making room for what is likely a freighterful of new patients. Unfortunately, the ''Artemis'' ' rapid deployment following Frontier day has left the ''Luna''-Class vessel unprepared for the arduous task of inoculating the entirety of the vessel against radiation, as they find their medical stores in suboptimal condition. Aided by the Operations Department's extra manpower and resources to get the anti-radiation medication replicated as soon as possible, [[Genkos Adea|Cmdr. Adea]] orders Gila to get preparations underway to organize a non-essential personnel redeployment, to protect as many as possible from the nebula's ambient radiation by having them stationed as close to the center of the ''Artemis'' as possible.
