Activating the generator went as planned; however, as soon as the activation was complete, the group was attacked by Reapers. Lily and Storos managed to hold off the group until power came back on ... but, as Lieutenant Clack reported, his generator was not enough to do so much. As it turned out, the Reapers had been enslaving a native race, the [[Avor]], and using them to power their technology. However, the Avor found that they enjoyed the technology aboard the ''Tiger'' - specifically, the bioneural circuitry, which reminded them of their home realm - better, and so rebelled against the Reapers. <br> | Activating the generator went as planned; however, as soon as the activation was complete, the group was attacked by Reapers.

The Reapers, with their failing technology and failed takeover, found themselves in even further: Their station was losing its grip on reality, and falling back into the alternate dimension it had emerged from. Unfortunately for the Reapers, they were also being dimensionally dragged, resulting in their expulsion and disappearance from the ''Tiger''. <br> | The Reapers, with their failing technology and failed takeover, found themselves in even further: Their station was losing its grip on reality, and falling back into the alternate dimension it had emerged from.

The Reapers' departure left the ''Tiger'' in shambles. Sickbay was overloaded, with all of its major physicians, including Hayden, unconscious or incapacitated. The crew limped the ship back to Deep Space 17, where they put in for repairs and recuperation. Lily's hardest duty, en route, was delivering the casualty list to Sidney, and then writing the letters to their families. <br> | |||

Aboard the station, Lily shut herself away in a dark depression. Initially, she'd wanted to explore the station with Hayden, but when he went out with [[Hathaway, Elizabeth|Ellie Hathaway]] and [[T'Ren]] without telling her, she slumped deeper. Even when it came time for the ''Tiger'''s promotion ceremony, she could barely dig herself out of her deep depression to attend ... and, then, she received word that Hayden was one of those promoted, and that he was being reassigned. <br> | |||
She put in an empty-hearted appearance at the ceremony and intended to retire directly after, but she was stopped by CMO [[Satscher, Vojana|Vojana Satscher]], Hayden's former supervisor. Although she didn't know everything on Lily's mind, she knew enough, and she told Lily that if she didn't go after him, she'd regret it. <br> | |||
Lily went. She found Hayden deep in his new ship, ''Antares'', about to depart, and asked him not to go, to talk to her, to think about their future. He agreed to delay and came with her back to the station, where she decided that a ceremony full of pomp wasn't necessary. They were married that night.<br> | |||
Although originally a part of the ''Tiger'''s next mission - she attended the briefings and led a team of researchers - Lily received some unexpected medical news that sent her back towards the Federation interior: She was pregnant. A small Starfleet vessel ferried Lily and [[Dickens, Marcus|Marcus Dickens]], who was taking a leave of absence, back to Deep Space 17. From there, Lily boarded Hayden's ''Antares'' for a ride to Starbase 118. | |||
