Transwarped across thousands of lightyears, a group of crew from the far-away [[Amity Outpost]] - led by Lt. Commander [[Robin Hopper]] - appears before the confused Artemisian officers, just in time to join the hasty retreat away from the Borg Drones. Lt.Cdr. [[Robin Hopper|Hopper]] informs them that they followed some Changeling infiltrators who had managed to gain access to the restricted laboratories in the basement levels of [[Amity Outpost]] and steal some classified technology. Realizing that there's a very real chance the Changelings and the Borg are cooperating, the now rather sizeable contingent of Starfleet officers split up into two groups: one to locate a way for them all to get off of the Cube, and one team to track down the Changelings and discover the plot unfolding before them. Once more, as though the Wheel of the Universe itself aims to break her mind, Gila is put on a direct collision course with disaster, as she joins the team pursuing the Changeling saboteurs further into the Cube itself.<br> | Transwarped across thousands of lightyears, a group of crew from the far-away [[Amity Outpost]] - led by Lt.

While giving chase to the Changelings, the team happens upon a strange room in the Cube filled with alcoves manned by dead Drones, seemingly restrained immediately prior to their demise. The team is locked within the room by a couple of Drones barring the exit with a forcefield, and while the others work on disabling the forcefield and dealing with the Drones beyond it, Gila and [[Quentin Beck|Ensign Beck]] work on identifying what had happened to the dead Drones. Gila note a peculiar disk-like contraption that seems foreign to the Cube's technology, but despite finding it oddly familiar, she has a difficult time pinpointing where she's seen it before. Soon - sooner than the two Doctors are able to identify a cause of death for the many drones in the encoves - the team moves on, eager to catch up to the Changelings. But the team is met with more than they bargained for when they locate the Changelings in the Borg Queen's Antechamber. The group attempts to listen in on the discussion without being noticed, but the Queen's mastery of the Cube's systems proves unparalleled and the group of Starfleet officers soon find themselves at gunpoint by dozens of Borg. The Queen attempts to reassimilate [[David Flint|LtJG David Flint]] - an ex-Borg serving on Amity Outpost - causing enormous stress to the Starfleet officers as they're escorted away by their former friend and the other Drones.<br> | |||
Realizing that she and the other officers have limited time, Gila decides on a gamble. The Borg Serum was a powerful neurosedative aimed at quieting Borg Technology, so if she administered too much to the partially assimilated Lieutenant, he'd be knocked out cold and unable to assist them. But if she managed to alter the dosage just right, he could utilize his updated knowledge on the Borg's plans and systems to turn the odds in their favour. As the Drones started drawing biological samples from Gila and a number of the other officers, her panicked mind hastened through pharmacological calculations, as she made the gamble of a lifetime. The dosage turned out to be just what [[David Flint|LtJG David Flint]] needed, and managing to tune out the assimilating properties of his Borg implants, he sets to sabotaging the Borg from the inside-out.<br> | |||
With the Borg shield matrix compromised, the group of Starfleet officers manage to escape from their impending demise, and in a last-ditch effort to sabotage the Borg Cube and open a window for the ''Artemis'' to exfiltrate them, the group decides on a massive gamble. By pouring Anti-Borg Serum directly into the Cube machinery, they could trigger a massive explosion which would serve as quite the distraction for their escape. Volunteering for the dangerous task of administering the serum to the internal machinations of the Cube on account of him self-administering the Anti-Borg Serum for fear of assimilation, [[Quentin Beck|Ens Beck]] completes his task and is almost consumed by the explosion, if not for the timely intervention of the ''Artemis'' transporters.<br> | |||
Back aboard the ''Artemis'', Gila rushes down to Sickbay alongside most of the complement from Amity Outpost in order to tend to their injuries. Chiefest of priorities is the cranial surgery of [[David Flint|LtJG Flint]], for whom the Anti-Borg Serum has reduced his implants to dust and rust, leaving the transponder in his brain to causing major bacterial infections if not attended to. Performing major surgery while on a Ship actively engaged in combat with a Borg Cube is easier said than done, but thankfully, the talented Doctors of [[Jansen Orrey|Dr. Orrey]] and [[Quentin Beck|Dr. Beck]] are able to reinforce her in the zero-gravity suite, and the surgery goes off without a hitch... Just in time for the ''Artemis'' to follow the transwarp signature of the Borg Cube towards Sector 001, the Sol System... | |||
