After an unapproved attempt to access Amity's classified research database is registered, a team led by Lt. Cmdr. [[Robin Hopper]] gains access to the Restricted Laboratories filled with Borg technology from when the station was previously known as Copernicus Station, an anti-Borg research facility. There, they discover the ex-Borg (xB) Drone, LtJG [[David Flint]], outside the doors as well as a biochemical compound on the access panel. Meanwhile, on Earth, Cpt.

Aboard the ''Artemis'', the efforts to counteract the sabotage continues, but this close to victory, the infiltrating Changelings grow more confident, soon taking the visage of the two most senior officers - Lt.Cdr. [[Talos Dakora|Dakora]] and Cdr. [[Genkos Adea|Adea]]. While the Adea-Changeling is unable to fool LT [[Hallia Yellir|Yellir]] and Ensign [[Jaseb Chevalier|Chevalier]], prompting a firefight near Main Engineering, Ravicz - the Changeling masquerading as Lt.Cdr. Dakora - successfully lures Ensigns [[Gnai]] and [[Kel Solas|Kel]] to the Shuttle Bay before sabotaging the forcefield separating the bay from the open vacuum outside the vessel. The Ensigns who commenced investigations of one of the shuttles are now in a struggle against rapid decompression, while LT [[Vitor Silveira|Silveira]] and LtJG [[T'Ama]] has a desperate face-off with a Changeling-turned-Borg in the Jeffries’ Tubes.<br><br> | |||
Meanwhile, on the Cube, Cpt. [[Addison MacKenzie|MacKenzie]] picks up a peculiar energy signature in the belly of the vessel - seemingly the focal point for the wandering drones - and suggests the team head that way. Upon arrival, the team is met with a true flood of drones all surrounding a strange artifact emitting a powerful green light. Before they can gain any meaningful information about the artifact, a sudden change in orders is disseminated through the Collective, and the group of Officers find themselves escaping from a horde of Drones now intent on capturing and assimilating the intruders. Their mad dash is soon interrupted, as a bright light manifests before them. When the light dims, they see another group of Starfleet Officers, who are far away from home… | |||
<br><br> | |||
'''USS ''Astraeus'''''<br> | |||
Frustrated with the amount of red tape and falsehoods littering their information and assistance from Starfleet, and indeed their fellow taskforce vessel the ''Intrepid'', numerous senior officers aboard the ''Astraeus'' attempt to gain access beyond their stations. Lt.Cmdr. [[Esa Kiax|Kiax]] lead a team in a rogue - and highly illegal - attempt to hack into Starfleet communications, but after countless failed attempts, change tack and instead work on gaining unredacted and unfiltered access to the Intrepid’s logs. Meanwhile, on the Bridge, the crew is able to utilize a new tracking algorithm penned by Lt.Cdr [[Timothy Alentonis|Alentonis]] and Ens [[Gwen'ora Tasen|Tasen]] to track the ''Titan''’s most likely destination, in spite of numerous false trails: The Daystrom Institute. The ''Astraeus'' attempts to get in contact with the Institute, when they learn that the Institute had suffered a recent theft. The details are too classified to provide details, but two things are clear: the theft was commutted while the ''Titan'' was in drydock, and the stolen object is dangerous.<br><br> | |||
As the ''Astraeus'' sets a course for the Institute, an explosion occurs near Strategic Operations, which floods the area with theta radiation and traps Lt.Cdr. [[Esa Kiax|Kiax]]’s team inside. Cpt. [[Mei'konda Delano|Mei'konda]] starts to suspect that there are rogue elements aboard his vessel, as rescue teams are dispatched. While the Doctors work tirelessly to rescue the numerous officers in Ops, the revelation that transporters are down - thereby making site-to-site transport of the wounded impossible a makes the Bridge abuzz with theories and accusations. In order to put a lid on a tense atmosphere that he deems could be damaging for crew morale at this crucial junction, Cpt. [[Mei'konda Delano|Mei'konda]] secretly orders three of his senior crew to conduct a covert investigation to ascertain the likelihood of treason and sabotage.<br><br> | |||
'''Amity Outpost & USS ''Kitty Hawk'''''<br> | |||
On Amity Outpost, the team enters the restricted area to find a lab filled with old borg tech and deactivated drones. Guided by their scans, LT [[Vailani Zoyara|Vailani]] suggests that there might be a transponder nearby sending out a signal, but before the team can look further into this idea, a call comes to them about activity on another level of the lab. Splitting the party and trying to gather their thoughts on how to proceed, a piece of borg technology activates - seemingly unprovoked - and they are all caught unawares when Mr. [[Arthur Summerside|Summerside]] - an independent journalist who’d been trapped behind the ‘red tape’ - clobbers a security officer before stealing the piece. He makes a run for a peculiar piece of technology - a ‘transwarp conduit’ - hovering in air in the center of the lab, emitting a vibrant green light. Then, before their very eyes, his features shift and change into that of a Changeling.<br><br> | |||
Meanwhile, on the second level, Crewman Emmonds assaults LtJG [[Kaito Moore|Moore]] before they can assist the team on the lower deck, starting a tense confrontation, but faced with three and a half capable Starfleet officers, the Changeling is soon seen slinking away into the dark. The distraction, however, has been efficient, as Amity’s sensor tower is rocked by explosions dismantling it entirely from the station, while the senior officers face down the Changelings in the restricted labs. Faced with the possibility that the overloading transwarp consuit might explode - taking Amity with it - Lt.Cmdr. [[Robin Hopper|Hopper]] allows the two Changelings to pass through it before starting what she hopes is the shut-down procedure. However, her efforts are not very successful, and instead, her entire team is sucked through the conduit and deposited elsewhere… Soon, they’re face-to-face with Cpt. [[Addison MacKenzie|MacKenzie]] and her band of Artemites.<br><br> | |||
Meanwhile, the makeshift crew of the USS ''Kitty Hawk'' scrambles to address the numerous issues with their vessel, while still trying to suss out the location of the renegade USS ''Titan''. Captain [[Roshanara Rahman|Rahman]] suggests the possibility of a saboteur, and appropriate measures are taken to catch them, though not in time. A Crewman by the name of Nuva passes by the two senior Engineers and mere moments later, the ''Kitty Hawk'' finds itself adrift in space. While hoping to mitigate the damage, LT [[Nathan Richards|Richards]] and LT [[Scotty Reade|Reade]] are pulled away from Engineering, when LtJG [[Harrison Blackwood|Blackwood]] pleads for help over comms after getting seriously heard on an upper deck. Heading up to assist him and escort him to Sickbay, they are joined by Ens [[Annamae Barberra|Barberra]] mere moments before Nuva appears, starting to shoot at them and accusing them of sabotage. However, not everything is as it seems.<br><br> | |||
In one of the Science Labs, a group of senior officers are brainstorming to ascertain the most logical location of the ''Titan'', but with the vessel operating on emergency power only, their options are limited. In a daring move to force the saboteurs' hands, Cpt. [[Roshanara Rahman|Rahman]] makes a radical decision: in one hour, the ''Kitty Hawk'' will self-destruct. | |||

Aboard the ''Artemis'', a Spider-man worthy stand-off occurs in the hallways, when Cmdr. [[Genkos Adea|Adea]] comes face-to-face with his own double. LT [[Hallia Yellir|Yellir]] demonstrates quick wit as a game of ‘21 Questions’ outs the imposter, and the Changeling makes a quick getaway. Deliberating on what to do now, Cmdr. [[Genkos Adea|Adea]] realizes that the two Ensigns are in deep trouble, and the trio heads towards the Shuttle Bay to intercept. Meanwhile, the aforementioned Ensigns are trapped in a shuttle with a malicious Changeling-Dakora outside, intent on taking vengeance on the Starfleet that’s wronged him so. Catching onto the deception, the two Ensigns manage to use the internal shuttle controls to vent the Shuttle Bay, sending the Changeling to his untimely demise in the vacuum of space. On the Bridge, Lt.Cdr. [[Talos Dakora|Dakora]] - the real one, we hope - resummons LT [[Vitor Silveira|Silveira]] and LtJG [[T'Ama]] (and a Changeling-Borg in Tupperware) to their station, as the Borg Cube is powering up. Combat soon ensues, and while they are all aware that the odds are stacked against them, the Artemis is adamant. They are leaving no one behind.<br><br> | |||
On the Cube, the crews of the ''Artemis'' and Amity Outpost fuse together, as Lt.Cmdr. [[Robin Hopper|Hopper]]’s complement is transwarped across quadrants. Dropped onto a bustling Cube gunning for their Beta Quadrant colleagues, the sizable group splints into two teams, one aimed at hijacking Borg transporters and getting the team back onto the Artemis, and one aimed at crippling the Cube, which is powering up and about to engage the disabled Starship in combat.<br><br> | |||
Lt.Cmdr. [[Robin Hopper|Hopper]]’s team makes their way towards the inner parts of the Cube, trying to make a reasonable strategy for dealing with the Changelings and the artifact they stole. En-route, the officers encounter numerous concerning indications that the Borg of today are very different from the ones of yesteryear, and by the time they locate the Changeling infiltrators, they are approaching the antechamber of the Borg Queen herself. Listening in on this meeting of evil, it becomes apparent that what is planned does not bode well for Starfleet at large. Before they have a chance to escape or make a surprise attack, however, the Borg are alerted to their presence, and while the Starfleet officers attempt to enact defense, the Borg Queen uses her unequaled mastery of the Cube to entrap them and bring them before her. And then, re-assimilate LtJG [[David Flint]] - ''Nine of Twenty'' - into the Collective.<br><br> | |||
'''USS ''Astraeus'''''<br> | |||
With the medical emergency still occurring in the Operations Center, the first responders divvy up the responsibilities. Cmdr. [[Serala]], LtJG [[Sylvie Doucet|Doucet]] and Ensigns [[Sevantha Saa|Saa]] and [[Gwen'ora Tasen|Tasen]] are working on reaching the senior officers trapped in StratOps, and LT [[Wyatt Ral|Ral]] alerts Ensign [[Sevantha Saa|Saa]] about his suspicions regarding a saboteur, using their telepathic abilities to communicate the necessity for the Captain to be briefed. LtJG [[Sylvie Doucet|Doucet]] realizes that the senior officers cannot be moved manually to Sickbay - on account of a large piece of shrapnel piercing the abdomen of Lt.Cmdr. [[Esa Kiax|Kiax]] - and calls for assistance in clearing the air of radiation, so the transporters can be utilized. Ensign [[Gwen'ora Tasen|Tasen]] manages this before Lt.Cmdr. [[Esa Kiax|Kiax]]’s condition can worsen, and the medical team and their patients are transported directly to Sickbay. Meanwhile, Ensigns [[Divya Tam|Tam]] and [[Kris Fianna|Fianna]] head for the Environmental Control Centre to find the source of the radiation leak, and are met with a disturbing revelation. An Engineer - later identified as Chief Davis - is found murdered and stuffed in an access tunnel. This confirms beyond reasonable doubt the presence of saboteurs aboard the ''Astraeus'', a development which the [[Mei'konda Delano|Captain]] is made aware of.<br><br> | |||
On the Bridge, measures taken to attempt to identify the saboteurs are being taken when the ''Astraeus'' finally reaches the Daystrom Institute. Cpt. [[Mei'konda Delano|Delano]] calls for his crew to prepare for combat as he takes the center chair, and the ''Astraeus'' drops out of warp kilometers away from the Institute. The rogue ''Titan'' is not immediately visible, but they are soon flushed out from their hiding place, and herded in the ''Astraeus''’ direction. Cpt. [[Mei'konda Delano|Delano]] has a crisis of duty as the rogue Starship gets within phaser range, but ultimately disobeys orders and orders his crew to stand down. Receiving a call from the Andorian CO of the USS ''Cole'' in his ready room, the Andorian expresses disappointment with the [[Mei'konda Delano|Captain]]’s unwillingness to parry orders, and he hints that it might be time the ''Astraeus'' has a change of leadership... Just as the fleshy form of a Changeling slinks into the Ready Room from a grate and attacks the [[Mei'konda Delano|Captain]].<br><br> | |||
'''Amity Outpost & USS ''Kitty Hawk'''''<br> | |||
After Cpt. [[Roshanara Rahman|Rahman]] activates the ''Kitty Hawk''’s self-destruct, she, LtJG [[Torvi Ylvor|Ylvor]] and Cmdr. [[Wil Ukinix|Ukinix]] goes back onto the Bridge, only to learn of a firefight having broken out on Deck 35. On recommendation from Cmdr. [[Wil Ukinix|Ukinix]], everyone involved save LT [[Nathan Richards|Richards]] - due to the necessity of bringing the ''Kitty Hawk'' back to full functionality - are transported to the Brig for interrogation. Cpt. [[Roshanara Rahman|Rahman]] opts to head towards Engineering to assist LT [[Nathan Richards|Richards]], but elsewhere, on Probert Station, the real Captain [[Roshanara Rahman]] awakens, hidden away in a dark crawlspace. Desperate to escape and alert someone about her suspicions of something nefarious occurring within Starfleet, Captain [[Roshanara Rahman|Rahman]] receives the assistance of [[Hannibal Parker]], an old friend, who reveals an uncomfortable pattern, hinting at one thing: Dominion infiltrators. The two Officers procure weaponry from a set of Starfleet Security Officers sent down the turbolift with phasers set to kill - likely looking for them - before using the Jefferies’ Tubes to reach the transporter deck. When there, they force a Transporter Chief at phaserpoint to set transporter coordinates of the USS ''Miller'' - the Miranda II prototype that [[Hannibal Parker|Parker]] had been working on - and Ensign [[Niev Galanis|Galanis]] (a recent graduate of the Academy) is forcefully brought along. Cpt. [[Roshanara Rahman|Rahman]] orders the transporter chief to come along with them, but when it becomes apparent that he is a Changeling and is attempting to bar their escape, the trio of Starfleet Officers initiate transport and soon materialize in the transporter room aboard the USS ''Miller''.<br><br> | |||
Meanwhile, on the ''Kitty Hawk'', Cmdr. [[Wil Ukinix|Ukinix]] and LtJG [[Torvi Ylvor|Ylvor]] head to the Brig to conduct their interrogations, and through shrewd manipulation and antagonizing, LtJG [[Torvi Ylvor|Ylvor]] feels that she had narrowed the saboteur down to Crewman Nuva, and the others are released just as a vessel comes out of warp by the ''Kitty Hawk'' and goes into offensive action. Cmdr. [[Wil Ukinix|Ukinix]] dispatches the others to where they are most needed, but remains behind himself to transport LT [[Nathan Richards|Richards]] and Cpt [[Roshanara Rahman|Rahman]] into the brig as well. The two of them appear wounded and bloodied, and they both accuse the other of being an infiltrator, with LT [[Nathan Richards|Richards]] stating that the Captain is a Changeling. Cmdr. [[Wil Ukinix|Ukinix]] attempt to get to the truth of the matter, and the Captain’s refusal to cancel the auto-destruct forces the situation into a tense direction. The Science Team, on the other hand, have gotten no further with their ideas as a new mystery reveals itself. Scans from the ''Titan'' indicated the presence of Thelomium-847 in some crew’s medical profiles, which LT [[Ikaia Wong|Wong]] finds peculiar. Furthermore, Thelomium-847 is registered on the ''Kitty Hawk'', indicating a possible connection to the crew of the rogue ''Titan'', despite the two Ships having never encountered each other. The team - armed with their tricorders - depart for a bear hunt just as a message comes in from Cmdr. [[Wil Ukinix|Ukinix]], calling Cmdr. [[Alora DeVeau|DeVeau]] and LT [[Ikaia Wong|Wong]] to the Brig. They arrive just in time to see Cmdr. [[Wil Ukinix|Ukinix]] fire his phaser at Captain Roshanara Rahman... | |||
