Shortly before shore leave's end, Captain Oddas Aria summoned the crew of the ''Eagle'' to a customary ceremony. Used to honor achievements and hard work among the crew, awards were typically presented in these situations. However, in the moments leading up to this particular ceremony, an enormous explosion rocked the Spike, causing enormous damage to the station and wounding or killing dozens of the ''Eagle's'' crew. Rescue efforts began immediately, and forensic analysis pointed to a rather primitive but effective homemade explosive as the cause. Now with evidence that the detonation had been an act of terrorism, ''Eagle's'' crew was anxious for answers. A distress signal from the Mithgiln put a hold on their investigation. The ship was boarded, along with members that had been wounded but insisted on coming along, including chief of security Irina Pavlova. Pavlova, who insisted on rushing through her recovery process, suddenly collapsed on the bridge, and was later pronounced dead, to the shock and horror of the ship's compliment. Despite the passing of one of the senior staff, ''Eagle'' continued. Soon, a Mithgiln ship was encountered, along with the unrecognizable crafts attacking it. ''Eagle'' joined the fight, driving away the assaulting ships, and attempted to understand why they were firing on the Mithgiln. The Mithgiln captain explained that a cult worshiping the Pah-Wraiths, of all things, was operating in the sector, praying on innocent ships that did not meet their standards of "purity". Incensed, Captain Oddas contacted the cult, which was operating on an abandoned Nor- Class Cardassian station. The leader of the cult responded, and charmingly invited the crew to meet him. Once their, an away team beamed down, led by Shayne. Shayne was given preferential treatment by the leader of the cult, but was still assaulted and relieved of his weapons. Meanwhile, a psyonic attack had begun to affect the away team and members of the ship. Irritability and fury were symptoms of a greater goal- the mental subjugation of the ''Eagle's'' crew. As they valiantly resisted, Shayne effected an escape with the help of some well-timed distractions. To his astonishment, he ran into Commander Ash MacKenna, deep undercover in the bowels of the cult's ranks. Delighted to see his partner again, Shayne and MacKenna kept their jubilation to a minimum and instead returned to the away team. As the away team slowly overpowered the effect of the attack, which was discovered to be the work of a previously unidentified Orb of the Prophets, the leader of the cult (Colonel Jabt, formerlly of the Carassian military), began displaying signs of abject madness. Just in time, the away team was beamed out, and the superior tactics and firepower of ''Eagle'', managed to bring the station to its knees. That said, in an act of vengeance for the loss of her wife, Captain Oddas proceeded to order that the station be destroyed, with all the cultists still on it. While it was true that they might have again presented a threat to the region in time, Shayne was appalled by the decision, and decided to confront her about it in private after the mission, leading to some tension between the two for some time. | |||

Shortly after the conclusion of the last mission, the ''Eagle'' was tasked with a simple milkrun- delivering bio-neural gel packs to the far-flung colony of Saldhana. The unusual and violent nature of the atmosphere of Saldhana made the gel packs necessary, as no antimatter devices could function due to the magnetic interference to be found there. Upon the delivery of the packs, a large storm forced ''Eagle'' to prepare for take off quickly. Just before the ship launched, a member of the colony desperately chased down the ship and begged to be let aboard. Suddenly, a cataclysmic explosion destroyed the colony, and ejected ''Eagle'' into orbit. Despite suffering serious damage, primary systems were restored. An almost immediate hail from Starbase 821's Admiral Byrn Valcose brought chaos. In a single message, Oddas was unfairly relieved of duty. The admiral was convinced that Oddas was the cause of the destruction. Shayne was placed in command, and grudgingly obeyed the order. Oddas was escorted to the brig as the investigation into what had caused the explosion continued. Eventually, evidence of tampering became apparant, and Valcose's attempts to stall their efforts grew suspicious. Soon, Valcose was the primary suspect to the ''Eagle'' crew. Marines were detached from the starbase to take command of the ship, but more significant problems- namely, an infestation of Altarian spider birds- convinced the two teams to work together. Soon, the leader of the marines was convinced that it was Valcose behind the incidents of spider birds and the explosion of the colony on Saldhana. Now targeting ''Eagle'', "Valcose" revealed himself to be a deep cover operative of the Obsidian Order, abandoned when the organization fell thirty years ago. Desperate to complete his mission, he had taken these bold steps. Now, only desperate action would save ''Eagle'' from destruction. Using some remarkable maneuvering and predictive abilities, the senior staff was able to avoid further damage to the ship while the marine contingent from the starbase attempted to capture "Valcose" and his aid- the individual that had run to the ship from the colony. Though the aid escaped, he was intercepted by the Starfleet vessel, and shortly afterward, command was returned to Captain Oddas. | |||
