Captain Shayne begins begins the conference, and reveals the signal emanating from Theta 122 has been intensifying and starting to interfere with power systems in the area. Unfortunately, the signal has also attracted the attention of the Sheliak, who have issued an ultimatum to evacuate the planet and cede control to the Corporate. The one hour deadline is cut short with the early arrival of a Sheliak vessel, armed to the teeth, and the immediate commencement of orbital bombardment. Collins, DeBarres, Wilde, and R'Ariel are dispatched to begin evacuations from the surface, while Shayne, Serinus, Waters, Caden, Alvarez, and Ander work to beam up as many as possible from the ship. | Captain Shayne begins begins the conference, and reveals the signal emanating from [[Theta 122]] has been intensifying and starting to interfere with power systems in the area.

Matters are complicated for the ship crew with the re-appearance of the pirate ship ''Razor's Edge'', and even more so with the discovery the signal from the planet is interfering with transport... | Matters are complicated for the ship crew with the re-appearance of the pirate ship ''Razor's Edge'', and even more so with the discovery the signal from the planet is interfering with transport. Operating on the guess that the arrival of the Sheliak or their firing of the weapon has triggered the change in behavior of the signal, Alvarez, Ander, and Caden are tasked with tapping into the Sheliak communications, using prior research by [[Jana Zicv|Ensign Zicv]]. Shayne orders Waters to set a collision course with the Sheliak vessel, aiming to provoke some kind of response from the Sheliak. | ||
On the surface, the away team discovers things are both good and bad. A number of ships have already safely departed, making good on a hasty evacuation. But still a number of less fortunate ships are still marooned on the surface, as are most of the staff of [[Atlas Base]]. The air is charged with some kind of energy, either a product of the signal, the weapon, or both - creating problems with transporters, communications, and tricorders alike. A ship fails during takeoff and breaks apart in the atmosphere, debris falling much to close for comfort. | |||
