USS HORIZON
CO: Captain James Burke
GM: Nina
******************
Lt Epona O'Leary is piloting the USS HORIZON. They are close to the
Telmarc Cease Fire Line, the two mystery ships are still tailing them. A new
contact is identified as the 'luchrupán', a small vessel formerly
encountered by Epona. The new ship is placed between the HORIZON and the
other two ships, which keep their distance to the luchrupán. Epona thinks
that the luchrupán might be here to protect the HORIZON. Captain Burke
decides to leave an observation buoy at the CFL with permission of the Crown
Prince to keep an eye on all three ships. Then the HORIZON enters Deserte
space.
LtCmdr Vymora Einicrox strongly suspects that the luchrupán is interested
more in Epona than in the HORIZON, but she keeps these thoughts to herself
for now. She is reminded of the infamous Gary Mitchell and the Galactic
Barrier. Vymora suspects that Epona might have something similar ahead of
her as Mitchell had.
In the lounge, Akeen Ghorev is mulling over the Vymora-problem when he is
visited by two people from HORIZON's security force. They offer Akeen a deal
profitable to both sides. They don't notice that they are being overheard by
the Ferengi barkeeper.
The observation buoy is launched. Crown Prince Jehune Tamal invites Cpt
Burke and his senior officers to be his guests on Deserte. Burke accepts and
asks Epona and Kallesin to organize the arrival on Deserte.
Later, Epona is in her quarters packing her bag when suddenly she has a
vision of a tall furry man and a wild stallion. The hallucinations trouble
her and she suppresses them. In the lift to the shuttlebay she meets the
counselor, Gendry Lockhart, who quickly notices that something has happened
to her. Lockhart insists on travelling on the Captain's yacht which Epona
will be piloting.
Suddenly there is an attack on D-level. The officers on the bridge are
unable to raise the Crown Prince or any of the assigned security teams there
over the intercom and begin to evacuate D level as life support is failing
there. At the same time five warships from Deserte appear on an intercept
course and threaten to stop the HORIZON and the illegitimate ruler, Prince
Tamal.
Epona and Lt William Greyhawk at OPS do their best to evade the warships
and counter any attacks so that Vymora is free to coordinate the search and
rescue of Prince Tamal. Vymora wonders if both the internal and the external
attack were coordinated, but she is too busy to think about it. She worries
about the safety of the Prince and has transporter control beam up all
Deserte natives currently on the HORIZON and then deposite each in a
separate holding cell in the brig. In addition, she has more security teams
stand by to enter D level.
LtCmdr Kallesin n'Galeda leaves the bridge to fix life support. Down inside
a Jeffrey's tube he finds electronic chaos and the remnants of a bomb. The
damage is extensive and will take hours to repair. As he reports this to the
bridge, the captain orders him down to D level to help search for the crown
prince.

USS NIGHTINGALE
CO: Captain Pol Canon
GM: Marco
**************************************
Captain Fisher, Hanson, Austin and Park are forced to participate in a
holodeck scenario going up against a Bird-of-Prey aboard Parks´ Firemoth.
Mao'Syllis notices a strange Azure color that she identifies as a second
intruder. On the holodeck Lo'sh'vo'ra' ri'to'pa' ta re-powers the already
beaten Bird-of-Prey for the challenge to continue. Only when the
NIGHTINGALE crew nearly destroys the Bird do they get a chance to leave
the holodeck again. In the meantime Syllis finds David Karides and also
finds that the man is not as much in control of the situation as everyone
believed so far.
The respire on the holodeck is only brief however, after a moment Fisher
and Comp find themselves back in the engine room of the Firemoth as
Romulan shock troops are beamed in. During a short fire fight Fischer
notices a strange colored fog that begins to spread in the engine room.
Austin reads electrical activity, reading similar to humanoid brain wave
patterns in the fog. After a few minutes the fog finally dissipates and
the NIGHTINGALE crew is able to leave the holodeck.
Mao'Syllis in the meantime manages to speak to Karides. Apparently he
found an alien intelligence adrift in space and intelligence that evolved
and that now controls both him and the strange events aboard the
NIGHTINGALE. Still Karies has enough free will left to help Syllis in a
plot to drive the alien entity off.
They manage to drive the being Syllis calls "the Azure" off the ship but
David Karides dies a painful death, trying to correct his earlier
mistakes.
The cleanup aboard the NIGHTINGALE begins.
Suddenly an unknown ship shows up, claiming the intruder was one of their
probes. They request and are granted permission to board the GALE to
remove the program that is still hiding in the ships replicators.
Afterwards Captain Fisher comments his old / new crew in his log entry as
various crew members go about their normal lives again and prepare for a
meeting.
