"They’re a little too close to home. Especially when you factor transwarp into the scenario. I’m sure the proximity to the fleet gathering for Frontier Day is far from a coincidence… But of course, there’s another problem."- Captain Addison MacKenzie

Teaser

Aboard Amity Outpost (which previously served as Copernicus Station, a center of anti-Borg research), Borg tech is stolen from a classified research lab. Their investigations leads them to an unexpected collaboration with the USS Artemis-A on the other side of the galaxy, which has discovered a strange sensor reading of a cube-shaped structure hiding in a nebula.

Meanwhile, the USS Kitty Hawk and USS Astraeus have returned to Earth in preparation for Frontier Day before the USS Astraeus then receives orders along with the USS Intrepid to hunt down a rogue Starfleet vessel.

Cpt. Addison MacKenzie- Be Careful What You Wish For - Part 1 - SD 240106.01

Late at night, Captain Addison MacKenzie is summoned to bridge by the Delta Shift Overseer, Lieutenant Alexis Edgington, who reports that the officers on duty has found strange signals within the borders of the Badlands. The Captain orders them to find the source, but is stunned with surprise when they discover a Borg Cube - seemingly inert - within the volatile area of space. However, the Borg Cube is estimated to have only been here for a couple of days, and with most Starfleet vessels across the galaxy returning to Earth for the Frontier Day Parade, the Captain is reluctant to consider it a coincidence. She attempts to brief Starfleet Command on the Cube's presence, but when the communications array fails to function, another piece of an alarming puzzle is revealed: A saboteur is aboard the Artemis, and has silenced her. Filled with alarm and righteous fury, Cpt. MacKenzie summons her senior staff to the Bridge for an emergency briefing.

Gathered on the bridge, with the additions of Ensign Beck of the USS Ronin and Lieutenant JG T'Ama of the USS Constitution-B - both guests of the Artemis hitching a ride back to Sector 001 - the crew exchange their concerns about their current situation. Fulfilling his duties as XO, Lt.Cdr. Dakora enacted the newly established Wildfire Protocol - a contingency plan aimed at combating internal threats to the vessel - making clear how serious the situation was. The Artemis had received a full set of repairs, ensuring it was in tip-top shape for the Parade in Sector 001, so it was all but guaranteed that the sabotage to the communications array occurred after their departure from DS9. Which in turn could mean only one thing: the saboteur was still aboard. The senior crew were split into teams, with a larger group heading to the Cube itself in order to discover the reason for its presence this close to Federation Space, while the remainder of the crew remained aboard the Artemis to repair the damage and locate and apprehend the saboteur.

Heading for the Communication Array, what meets them is an utter mess. LT Yellir orders standard repair efforts - if expedient - but the sabotage is thorough.

Locating the Saboteur

Cmdr. Genkos Adea
Chief Medical Officer
Ens. Kel Solas
Security Officer
Ensign Gnai
Science Officer

In charge of locating the saboteur, Cdr. Adea and his team head into the bowls of the ship, the Betazoid fatigued with concern about the danger they're in. While they still have no evidence beyond the saboteur's handiwork, Ens. Kel carefully voices the theory that either the saboteur has access to very advanced technology or has intimate knowledge of the ship's systems. Either option is distressing, but not so much as the third voiced theory. This close to DS9 and the main staging area of the Dominion War of years past, the questions poses itself: What if the saboteur is a shapeshifter? Elsewhere on the Artemis, an Internal Security Sensor register PO3 Domingo Martinez, Ens. Marcus Li and Crewman Toro Nubar in the Secondary Sensor Control Room, performing their designated tasks. Ens. Li relieves PO3 Martinez, before producing an unknown object from his bag and going with Crewman Nubar into the restricted area with the sensitive sensor equipment. Moments later, an explosion sounds, and only Crewman Nubar exit the room again, disappearing out-of-view of the Security Sensors.

Minding the Bridge

Settling into their positions on the Bridge alongside the Delta Shift crew, LtJG T'Ama ensures that the viewscreen provides the Bridge with a video feed inside of the Cube, piggybacking off of the signals from the away team's tricorders. With their primary focus on assisting the away team with their own scans and maintaining a transporter lock, tension is high, but it is nothing compared to the alarm that occurs when suddenly, an explosion occurs in the Secondary Sensor Control Room, rocking the Artemis and killing the sensors.
