Act One

---

After an extended shore leave at Deep Space 26 for extensive repairs after the ordeal with the Kam'Jahtae at Arndall, the USS Blackwell has been assigned to travel to the planetoid P-409 in the Rettan Province. A lifeless planetoid which is emitting a strange energy signal from below its surface. The mission is to collect data that a probe which passed by couldn't because of the hazards native to the Par'tha Expanse. This mission is also a corroboration effort with the Klingon vessel, gik'tal, sent because of the fear that the Kam'Jahtae, or Hur'Q as the Klingons know them to be, is returning despite Starfleet's assurance that the Kam'Jahtae will not be. An away team comprised of Lt. Commander Adyr, Lieutenant Krindo Pandorn, Doctor G'Renn, and Ensigns Lewis Little and Hal Mika will go to the surface of the planetoid to retrieve the data accompanied by a party fron the gik'tal. Lt. Commander Shayne, Lieutenant Junior Grade Mandak will act as liason between the two vessels, Commander Rior and Ensign Kortar will try to find out the Empire's plans now that the Kam'Jahtae have returned. Lt. Commander Ezo, who decided to stay after being recovered from Arndall, and Councilor Rune Jolara will handle the diplomacy aspect of the mission. Will the two ships work together, or will it be a competition? Only the data on P-409 can tell...

Act Two

---

Upon arriving at P-409 Sigma, the USS Blackwell and gik'tal encounter a strange anomaly in the vicinity of the planetoid. The strange nature of the anomaly was not apparent until the away teams dispatched to the surface vanished apparently of a temporal displacement. The survey mission became one of rescue as both ship try to determine what the anomaly was and how to recover their crewmates.

As for the away teams, they were trapped by the anomaly and sent back to a time where the planetoid was not so dead. The remains of an early Federation starship the USS Fortwith was discovered half-buried in the now live soil. Upon investigation, the away team discover survivors of the crash and after a tense standoff on the bridge, the two crews now attempt to find out what and why they were sent to this particular place and this particular time.Time, which is a concern for the Blackwell crew as they wrestle with the Temporal Prime Directive. What will they tell Captain McMillan and his crew?

Act Three

---

After tensions eased somewhat, the crews started to formulate a plan to rescue all on the planetoid's surface. Lieutenant Krindo Pandorn and Commander Flores worked together to set up a working relay to pin point the anomaly, which was closing rapidly. They succeeded in getting the exact location of the anomaly, but also in slowing down the degrading anomaly, but not by much. A rustling in the woods nearby produced two surprises, a creature with natural cloaking abilities which was stunned before it could reach the anomaly and destabilize it, and two new arrivals. One was the Klingon Commander Merzan and the other Commander Luna Walker who purposely came from the Blackwell in the future with a plan to get them all home. Lieutenant Commander Thoran finally told Captain McMillan and Commander Flores as much as can be told, what needed to be done to be rescued.

On the USS Blackwell, sensors picked up an anomaly at the northern pole of P-409 Sigma. New science officer Ensign Carl Ramirez set up an antiproton beam to reveal what is hiding there. This was after a tense moment when the gik'tal started to move aggressively towards the anomaly, which was quickly stopped by a "convincing" of the present commander of the Klingon warship. What is hovering over P-409 Sigma, and will the plan on the Fortwith work?
