===Act 2 - Scavengers=== | |||
Ninety-six days trapped in this reality, the ''Gorkon'', finding itself very low on supplies, arrives at a large starship graveyard. They know the pickings will probably be small, but they have little choice. Two teams are sent to a derelict ''U.S.S. Galaxy'' and ''U.S.S. Okinawa'', while Captain Reynolds takes another team in the Captain's yacht to explore the graveyard a little more. They don't get very far when they are impacted by an unknown object; speculations include simple debris to a cloaked Dominion probe. | |||
The ''Galaxy'' team, led by {{nrank|Lt. Commander|Ayiana Sevo}}, discovers a sealed-up section of the ship; possibly a final stand by the crew. They manage to salvage some valuable technology and food. On their return to their cargo shuttle, they find it had mysteriously been launched or floated out of the ''Galaxy's'' shuttle bay. The team manages to jury-rig the bay's old tractor emitters to pull the shuttle back in. It was never discovered exactly how the shuttle got out of the bay, nor why the section of ship was sealed up. {{nrank|Commander|Alex Blair}}'s ''Okinawa'' team doesn't fare as well. During their brief exploration of the ship, however, they are attacked by a Changeling; one of the last to survive the virus that killed the rest of the Founders. They manage to disable the changeling before escaping, leaving it's fate unknown. | |||
Back in their home universe, the clandestine group miscreants board and steal the ''U.S.S. Yarahla'' from Astrofori One and escape before they can be pursued. As they make their way to the ''Gorkon's'' last known position, they pick up a distress call. Changing course to investigate, they discover it to be a heavily damaged freighter. Debate rages on the bridge if it is a genuine crisis or a potential pirate ambush. | |||

===Act 3 - A Bad Deal=== | |||
[[File:DSX_view.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Creshan'na Riyas]]The ''Gorkon'' spends the next several months in increasingly desperate situations. They had to fight Cardassians and pirates, nearly getting destroyed a dozen times, and scavenging from abandoned bases. Too many funerals were attended; the ship sustaining more and more damage despite the crew's best efforts to patch them up. Most of the senior staff took to camping in the conference room behind the bridge when the turbolift system finally gave out for the last time. | |||
On day two-hundred and fifty-five, Captain Reynolds has a surprising but potentially welcome meeting with Romulan Commander Dharvanek. He offered a trade: a cloaking device for a "favor." His son had been captured by the Dominion and sent, along with his shuttle, to a nearly abandoned star base deep in the Menthar Corridor. If the ''Gorkon'' was able to rescue him, Dharvanek would give them a cloaking device - a much-needed tool to evade pursuit in this hostile universe. | |||
