| |
| Late at night, Captain [[Addison MacKenzie]] is summoned to bridge by the Delta Shift Overseer, Lieutenant Alexis Edgington, who reports that the officers on duty has found strange signals within the borders of the Badlands. The Captain orders them to find the source, but is stunned with surprise when they discover a Borg Cube - seemingly inert - within the volatile area of space. However, the Borg Cube is estimated to have only been here for a couple of days, and with most Starfleet vessels across the galaxy returning to Earth for the Frontier Day Parade, the [[Addison MacKenzie|Captain]] is reluctant to consider it a coincidence. She attempts to brief Starfleet Command on the Cube's presence, but when the communications array fails to function, another piece of an alarming puzzle is revealed: A saboteur is aboard the ''Artemis'', and has silenced her. Filled with alarm and righteous fury, [[Addison MacKenzie|Cpt. MacKenzie]] summons her senior staff to the Bridge for an emergency briefing.
| |
| <br><br>Gathered on the bridge, with the additions of [[Quentin Beck|Ensign Beck]] of the USS ''Ronin'' and [[T'Ama|Lieutenant JG T'Ama]] of the USS ''Constitution''-B - both guests of the ''Artemis'' hitching a ride back to Sector 001 - the crew exchange their concerns about their current situation. Fulfilling his duties as XO, [[Talos Dakora|Lt.Cdr. Dakora]] enacted the newly established [[USS Artemis-A/Wildfire Protocol|Wildfire Protocol]] - a contingency plan aimed at combating internal threats to the vessel - making clear how serious the situation was. The ''Artemis'' had received a full set of repairs, ensuring it was in tip-top shape for the Parade in Sector 001, so it was all but guaranteed that the sabotage to the communications array occurred ''after'' their departure from DS9. Which in turn could mean only one thing: the saboteur was still aboard. The senior crew were split into teams, with a larger group heading to the Cube itself in order to discover the reason for its presence this close to Federation Space, while the remainder of the crew remained aboard the ''Artemis'' to repair the damage and locate and apprehend the saboteur.

| |
| Heading for the Communication Array, what meets them is an utter mess. [[Hallia Yellir|LT Yellir]] orders standard repair efforts - if expedient - but the sabotage is thorough. [[Hallia Yellir|LT Yellir]] - struck by a moment of brilliance - realizes that communications could be piggybacked onto the external sensors, allowing them to get a message out to Starfleet Command after all, when an explosion rocks the Artemis. After gathering her senses, [[Hallia Yellir|LT Yellir]] realizes that internal comms have died as well. Debating on how to proceed now, the two officers agree that getting a thorough idea of the current state of the ''Artemis''' systems would be easier from Main Engineering, and they could pick up some spare parts to start fixing the issues as well. With that in mind, they start to access the Jeffries' Tubes leading towards Deck 14 - and Main Engineering - but they are not alone...<br>
| |
| Coming around the corner, Cdr. Adea announces his intent to join their group, but between [[Jaseb Chevalier|Ensign Chevalier]]'s loyal faith in the importance of the Wildfire Protocol and the other Adea's confusion at [[Hallia Yellir|LT Yellir]]'s query about the state of his leg, it soon becomes apparent that this Adea is not - in fact - their Betazoid CMO, and a desperate struggle ensues between the two Officers and what reveals itself to be a Changeling. The conflict is broken off as the Changeling escapes out of sight, but when the two officers finally catch up to it, they are faced with two Adeas staring each other down in the corridor, both claiming to be the real one. Thankfully, [[Hallia Yellir|LT Yellir]] has known the Commander for a while, and manages to trick the Changeling into revealing itself by posing questions to the pair. The Changeling, unfortunately, manages to escape once more, just as [[Genkos Adea|Cdr. Adea]] makes a startling observation: He just sent a pair of Ensigns to the Shuttlebay alongside a Lt.Cdr. Dakora who was behaving suspiciously. The trio debate what to do now, but between repairing the vessel and saving the lives of two Ensigns potentially at the mercy of a hostile Changeling, they opt for the latter and take off running towards the Shuttlebay.

| |
| In charge of locating the saboteur, [[Genkos Adea|Cdr. Adea]] and his team head into the bowls of the ship, the Betazoid fatigued with concern about the danger they're in. While they still have no evidence beyond the saboteur's handiwork, [[Kel Solas|Ens. Kel]] carefully voices the theory that either the saboteur has access to very advanced technology or has intimate knowledge of the ship's systems. Either option is distressing, but not so much as the third voiced theory. This close to DS9 and the main staging area of the Dominion War of years past, the questions poses itself: What if the saboteur is a shapeshifter? Elsewhere on the ''Artemis'', an Internal Security Sensor register PO3 Domingo Martinez, Ens. Marcus Li and Crewman Toro Nubar in the Secondary Sensor Control Room, performing their designated tasks. Ens. Li relieves PO3 Martinez, before producing an unknown object from his bag and going with Crewman Nubar into the restricted area with the sensitive sensor equipment. Moments later, an explosion sounds, and only Crewman Nubar exit the room again, disappearing out-of-view of the Security Sensors. The explosion knocks the turbolift temporarily out of service, and triggers emergency lights on the surrounding decks. Heading to Deck 13, the trio of officers arm themselves and head towards the site of the sabotage.<br><br> | |
| Arriving at the place in question, the team realizes that the damage to the comm relays will impede the Ship's internal communications, so as [[Gnai|Ens. Gnai]] beings taking scans to find any trace of the saboteur, or indeed the cause of the explosion itself, [[Kel Solas|Ens. Kel]] is instructed to move away from the sabotage in an attempt to get contact to the Bridge. Unfortunately, all attempts are met with silence. As the team deliberates on how to proceed, they are met with Lt.Cdr. Talos Dakora, who claims he's been trying to reach them since the comms went down. He attempts to lead the group towards the Shuttle Bay where a situation is unfolding. [[Genkos Adea|Cdr. Adea]] finds the situation curious, but allows the two Ensigns to follow the Betazoid First Officer with the telepathic message to keep each other safe. Barely has the trio rounded the corner, before [[Genkos Adea|Cdr. Adea]] is knocked unconscious by an unseen assailant...<br><br>
| |
| In the Shuttle Bay, Lt.Cdr. Dakora orders the two Ensigns to commence their investigations of the shuttles to ascertain whether they have been sabotaged, as he himself goes to the Flight Controller's office. There, he reveals himself to be Ravicz - a Changeling infiltrator - and sets to his diabolical plan. The two Ensigns - suspicious of the circumstances - opt to stay together while investigating the ''Griffin'', when a cacophonous sound ruptures the air and the Shuttle Bay enters rapid decompression. [[Kel Solas|Ensign Solas]] barely manages to get the shuttle ramp sealed before they are both sucked into the now accessible vacuum of space, and the two of them are now sealed into the shuttle, safe... For the moment.<br><br>
| |
| Soon Ravicz realizes that his cunning trap has not ended the lives of the two Ensigns, and he comes running - still in his disguise - to lure them outside the shuttle so he can finish the job in person. The Officers are at this point rightfully wary of their supposed First Officer, and discuss what might be a reasonable way to handle his aberrant behavior, at which point the increasingly unhinged Changeling starts to physically beat at the Shuttle to get at the two Ensigns. [[Kel Solas|Ensign Solas]] - at this point certain in his observation that the Lt.Cdr. is ''not'' who he seems - suggests that they depressurize the Shuttlebay from within the shuttle. [[Gnai|Ensign Gnai]] still harbors doubts, concerned that they might be killing a mentally compromised or perhaps drugged colleague, but as Ravicz loses grip on his disguise, all doubts are dismissed and the depressurization is started. The Changeling is sucked into space, and ghastly green beams light up the outside of the shuttle, as the Ensigns make a concerning observation.<br><br>

| Settling into their positions on the Bridge alongside the Delta Shift crew, [[T'Ama|LtJG T'Ama]] ensures that the viewscreen provides the Bridge with a video feed inside of the Cube, piggybacking off of the signals from the away team's tricorders. With their primary focus on assisting the away team with their own scans and maintaining a transporter lock, tension is high, but it is nothing compared to the alarm that occurs when suddenly, an explosion occurs in the Secondary Sensor Control Room, rocking the ''Artemis'' and killing not only the sensors, but also restarting every bridge console and knocking out all phaser arrays. Accessing the computer bank, [[T'Ama|LtJG T'Ama]] locates a video feed from the site of the explosion, and what appears on the video causes her to suggest a hypothesis: Have the Borg assimmilated Changelings?<br><br>

Talos Dakora - Prove The Theory] - SD 240106.10}}While the idea itself is a massive leap considering the limited evidence available, [[Talos Dakora|Lt.Cdr. Dakora]] decides it worth acting on. After confirming the location of either Ensign Li or Crewman Nubar - the two identities reflected in the security log - the internal sensors locate Nubar in a Jeffries' Tube near Deck 13 where [[Hallia Yellir|LT Yellir]] and [[Jaseb Chevalier|Ens Chevalier]]. Deciding to mind the bridge on his own, [[Talos Dakora|Lt.Cdr. Dakora]] sends the two lieutenants on a manhunt.<br><br>
| |
| The two goldshirts travel downwards through the vessel on a hunt for Nubar, but soon discover his comm badge discarded on the floor. Utilizing [[Vitor Silveira|LT Silveira]]'s understanding of the layout of the ''Artemis'', the two of them realize that the Changeling infiltrator is dangerously close to Main Engineering, and decide to head in that direction. Some idle flirting is passed between the two, when a long, reddish-pink tentacle lashes out to grab [[T'Ama|LtJG T'Ama]]'s ankle. Inconvenienced by the tight fit in the crawlspace, [[Vitor Silveira|LT Silveira]] fires his phaser to make the Changeling release her, but in response to his hostility, the Changeling changes tactic and turns into a Gorn. Deploying the tried-and-true tactic of kicking a Gorn in the face, [[T'Ama|LtJG T'Ama]] manages to knock the Changeling out, and the two officers manage to drag the Changeling out of the Jefferies' Tubes before it can liquefy. In a stroke of mad genius, [[Vitor Silveira|LT Silveira]] and [[T'Ama|LtJG T'Ama]] seal the rapidly deconstructing Changeling in a tupperware container, just as [[Talos Dakora|Lt.Cdr. Dakora]] resummons them to the Bridge. The Cube is powering up.<br><br>
| |
| While combat against the Cube goes about as well as could be expected - considering that the weapons systems have been repaired - it is painfully clear that the ''Artemis'' is outgunned in a major way. As a couple of attacks from the Cube hits the ''Artemis'' hard, the tuppered Changeling, brought along by [[T'Ama|LtJG T'Ama]] starts to break out of its containment, making matters worse for the already tense bridge crew.

| |
| Heading into the Cube itself, [[Addison MacKenzie|Cpt. MacKenzie]] leads her team to Transporter Room One to outfit themselves with the necessary equipment. En-route, [[Gila Sadar|LtJG Sadar]] recounts the exploits of Lieutenant [[Sheila Bailey]], the then-Assistant Chief Medical Officer of [[Starbase 118 Ops]], who spearheaded the development of a new anti-Borg medication when attempting to cure the assimilated crew of the [[USS Nimitz|USS ''Nimitz'']]. While the medication is years old at this point, and thus there is a very real possibility that the Borg nanites has adapted to it, the medicine is added to the first aid kits of the two Medical Officers. Upon arming themselves with weaponry and other essential equipment, the group is then transported to the Cube itself.<br><br>
| |
| Arriving on the Cube, the away team is concerned upon discovering that there are no lifesigns in the immediate vicinity, and indeed, for quite a distance. It looks - as the scans claimed - inert and abandoned, but [[Savel|LtJG Savel]] urges caution. Nothing seems visibly wrong with the Cube, so surely there'd be no reason for the Collective to just abandon it in this way. Concerned by the fact that none of their tricorders register lifesigns despite the Cube having only appeared in the Badlands a few days ago, [[Addison MacKenzie|Cpt. MacKenzie]] orders the group to descend onto a lower deck to locate an access node, so they might get some answers. En-route, the team has a brief stop prompted by an unclear registration of an intermittent lifesign, but with no conclusive evidence, there is little to be done. On the lower deck, however, the team happens upon a lone Borg Drone wandering erratically along the corridors, but most alarmingly: the Drone's lifesign is not registered.<br>

A Smorgas-Borg!] - SD 240106.09}}<br>As the team stealthily moves towards an access node, Doctors [[Gila Sadar|Sadar]] and [[Quentin Beck|Beck]] attempt to configure their tricorders in a manner to be able to register the Borg lifesign, but their efforts are unfruitful before the [[Addison MacKenzie|Captain]] manages to locate an access node. Upon accessing it, the [[Addison MacKenzie|Captain]] reveals that the drones seem to be in a sort of 'hibernation', awaiting a trigger that will eventually activate them again. What that trigger is remains a mystery, so the [[Addison MacKenzie|Captain]] deems it pertinent that the team head further down into the Cube to locate a peculiar power signature. Barely has the team started moving before [[Gila Sadar|LtJG Sadar]] manages to find the necessary settings to register the masked Borg lifesigns, prompting a cascade of newly registered lifesigns. Not only is the Borg Cube not abandoned, but rather teeming with hibernating drones. She attempts to contact the ''Artemis'' to alert them to the required alterations to sensor settings, when her attempts at communications are met with silence. The away team has officially lost contact with the ''Artemis''-A.<br><br>
| |
| 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. 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>

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...

| Coming face-to-face with colleagues from another quadrant, the Officers from Amity find themselves running for their lives as thousands of Borg Drones continue their pursuit of the Artemisian intruders. [[Robin Hopper|Lt.Cdr. Hopper]] - the Acting First Officer - reveal that they were likely pulled to the Cube as a result of some Changeling infiltrators, who had snuck into Amity Outpost's restricted laboratories to retrieve a curious artifact, though for what purpose, they don't yet know. Realizing with some alarm that that Changelings and Borg have joined forces, it soon becomes apparent that they need to devise a proper plan for getting off of the Cube - and fast - but with the recent arrivals, the group is simply too large to effectively maneuver in the Cube. Even more alarming is the revelation that a number of the crew eventually come to: the Drones are ''herding'' them.

Hopper]] leads her team into the heart of the Cube to locate the conniving Changelings and hopefully in teh process distract the Borg enough for the Shield Sabotage Team to be able to do their task in peace. Their journey leads them through the oppressive corridors of the Cube and into a peculiar chamber filled with alcoves occupied by Borg Drones. ''Dead'' Borg Drones. Eager to move on to their destination, the group is ushered through the large room, only for a pair of Drones to bar their progress. Erecting a forcefield to trap the Officers within the chamber, [[Vailani Zoyara|LT Vailani]] realizes that the Borg have changed tactics. They're planning on cutting off life support to the room they have trapped the Officers in. While the Engineers and Security Officers work on foiling the Drones' trap, [[Gila Sadar|LtJG Sadar]] and [[Quentin Beck|Ens Beck]] are ordered to examine the deceased Drones in the hopes of discovering what the function of the room is, and what killed the Drones still locked into alcoves.
