| The freshly recommissioned USS Aurora, complete with it’s new command and senior staff, departed SB118 on a combination shakedown and patrol run. Her orders were to head out to the border of the Romulan Neutral Zone and keep an eye out for unusual or suspicious activity there, as well as investigate any out-of-the-ordinary happenings that may have occurred in the wake of the Hobus supernova. With the crew still in the process of getting to know one another, the ship underwent a number of tests of it’s systems – including one rather creative experiment involving the sensor grid and it’s own emissions – but reached the Neutral Zone without incident. Almost immediately upon arrival,the Aurora detected signs of unusual levels of rather exotic radiation in the area, and has begun investigating… with no idea what the crew’s actions are about to trigger.

| Without warning, the anomaly responsible for the radiation opened up, engulfing the ship and depositing it roughly 750 light years on the other side of the Romulan Star Empire. The ship received some damage but nothing too serious that the repair teams and medical team couldn’t handle. When recovering the sensor capability, the crew discovered a D7 Romulan ship floating in space, apparently without energy or living signatures. Having in count that the D7 class was last produced more than 200 years ago, it’s worth investigating, so an away team was sent in a shuttle due some damage on the transporters. After an easy ride, the doors of the Romulan ship opened and once inside they’re received by a group of Romulans who’s leader was named Lakacl. After an offer to repair the ventilation system of the ship and some diplomatic talks, the Elder Lakacl accepted to interview with Captain Vetri on the Aurora while the away team remained on the Romulan ship.

| As if being surrounded by tension from the crew of the Romulan D7 they are trying to help wasn’t bad enough, the USS Aurora’s away team find themselves caught in the midst of an attempted coup against the ship’s leaders, triggered by the arrival of the Aurora and the promise of a potential way home – something not all of those aboard the Romulan vessel want to take. This struggle also manifests aboard the Aurora itself, where the visiting dignitaries are themselves split, resulting in an armed confrontation in the conference room. Luckily, things are resolved with a minimum of trouble on the Starfleet ship, but only in time for it to find itself falling prey to another hazard of the area they have found themselves in – a space-borne crystalline object that begins draining the Aurora of power at a dangerous rate.

| Having helped those loyal to the leadership regain control of the D7, the away team then proceed to help the Aurora out, using the Romulan ship’s weapons to disable the entity, allowing the Aurora to break free and begin working out just what it is. Now, with those Romulans that wish to return home safely aboard, the Aurora’s crew can focus their efforts on making sure the anomaly that brought them here can get them back again – and the fact that a Starfleet shuttle got dragged through it to their location is a fair indication that it might just be able to do it…
