The morning of July 11th, 1969 finds members of the crew split going about their days - only to be interrupted by an Earthquake. Aria, Elijah, and Cadfael - on a train bound for New York City, find themselves in train car turned to its side which is sliding toward the side of a cliff. The three attempt to keep other passengers calm and safe as they deal with minor injuries to themselves. T'Lea, Shark, and R'Kala are caught in the antique store even as a fire rages, caused by the earthquake which might serve the proprietor's aims. Riassa, Han, and Fiorr are taking shelter at the library - seeking refuge from falling pillars, books, and other items. Jansen, Tierney, and Indobri - in Orrey's diner, take shelter as the building threatens to come down around them. | The morning of July 11th, 1969 finds members of the crew split going about their days - only to be interrupted by an Earthquake.

Unbeknownst to the | Unbeknownst to the crew an Unknown organism has attached to the Juneau and begun spreading itself through the ship, attaching to consoles, the ship, and other key systems. The entity's intrusions seem to be responsible for the Earthquake, and for several members of the crew seeing small signs that some things are wrong with the world they are living in - recognizing prosthetics, asking for med-kits, referring to alert statuses, and other slips. | ||
== Part Three - July 20th, 1969 == | |||
Worried about the Earthquakes and fires, the citizens of Sunrise - the crew - have gathered in Orrey's diner for an impromptu town meeting to compare notes and to watch the moon landing. The events of the moon landing are quickly overshadowed by the reality of the USS Juneau bleeding through to Sunrise. Various members of the crew begin to experience sounds and sights of the real world, including red alert sounds, images of crew slumped over their consoles, and more. Several members of the crew - mostly those with telepathic abilities - experienced memories of their time aboard the Juneau and communications with other crew members. | |||
After repeated breakthroughs into the real world one group - led by Aria - headed for T'Lea's Antique's store, which the crew deduced was a stand-in for the Juneau's Main Engineering. Another group, headed up by Orrey stayed in the Diner to distract the Unknown, to give the smaller group cover. After detective work on both group's part, and not insignifigant effort on the Telepaths' parts, the group lead by Orrey was able to break through the delusion and assist the Engineering team to do the same. | |||
Both groups are now attempting to do make contact with the Unknown and to repair damage done to the Juneau. | |||
