Allowing a brief moment of panic, [[Addison MacKenzie|Cpt. MacKenzie]] soon calls her officers to attention once more. The numerous new lifesigns are not paying any attention to the Starfleet boarders, but are instead heading towards that very same power signature that she noted earlier. And so, with urgency and no small amount of paranoia, the team continues on their way. Upon reaching the lower levels of the Cube, the amount of drones they have to make their way through has grown beyond numerous, and following the current leads them to a large antechamber lit up by a violent green light, with multitudes of Borg arranged around the source of the light in a peculiar pattern. | Allowing a brief moment of panic, [[Addison MacKenzie|Cpt.

The officers attempt to gain as much data as possible from a distance, concerned that approaching the artifact might trigger a change in Borg attitude against their presence, but before long, an order is sent out through the Collective. To assimilate the intruders...<br><br> | ||

''As the light from the conduit continued to fade, there was a sudden shuffle of noise behind them. Robin spun around, looking for the source. Nothing could have surprised her more, as she found herself looking at another crew of Starfleet Officers and, at the head of their group, the familiar face of Captain Addison MacKenzie.'' | |||
'''''MacKenzie''': You’re pretty far away from home, aren’t you, Commander?''|source = [https://groups.google.com/u/0/g/sb118-artemis/c/004ecEB9Mds Cpt Addison MacKenzie - Safety in Numbers] - SD 240106.15}}Sent on a mad dash through the Cube to escape the coming storm of Borg Drones, [[Addison MacKenzie|Cpt. MacKenzie]] calls for ideas. [[Gila Sadar|LtJG Sadar]] previously noted that new Borg life signs were constantly appearing on her scans, indicating some sort of transporter activity going on in the Cube. If then their group could locate those transporters, it would be plausible for them to get back to the ''Artemis''. Reading scans while running is difficult, and the Borg were adapting rapidly to their weapons, meaning that they were running out of options. Soon, the group turns a corner, only to be stopped in their tracks by a vivid green light with a semblance to the artifact in the assembly chamber. When the light fades, friends from ''very'' far away appear before them... | |||
