Mission 5 - Alternate Enemy
Stardate 2391.04.12
The question from the FO of the alternate ship, to join the maquis was just
a trick. Her true intentions became clear when First Officer Holmes barged
in, and was taken hostage by Ms. Von Klinkerhoffen. It was a situation that
could have escalated quite easily. So Dr. Vok and XGO Underhill let the 2
go, out of sickbay. They didn't have any choice.
The 2 commanders, however, were followed by a new arrival to the Station:
Ensign Nel. He had seen what happened, and took it to himself, to find out
what was happening. He called down a security detachment, and 'entrapped'
Ms. Von Klinkerhoffen.
Like a caged rat, von Klinkerhoffen realised there was no way out. The
people at Main Ops showed this, when they transported Holmes away, together
with the phaser von Klinkerhoffen was holding. Although the Alternate
Commander didn't have a weapon anymore, she did almost escape. In this
escape, a civilian reporter, and a PO security officer were hurt. But thanks
to a quick reply from Ensign Nel, more casualties were spared.
In the next few hours, the prisoner was turned over to the alternate maquis
ships, who were waiting outside the station. Captain Janssens said goodbye
to his alternate self... with the knowledge that maybe... just maybe, this
alternate self would come back some time...
Mission 6 - One Hour at Transwarp
Stardate 2391.04.16
A few days had passed, and things were going their usual way again on
Pandora Station. Until Starfleet had decided that the crew of Pandora could
take the Epimetheus, the ship Pandora Station was refitting with a
transwarpdrive, on some sort of shakedowncruise.
Of course, the crew of Pandora happily accepted this, and began to get
ready. It wasn't long before Pandora's docking clamps were released, and the
Epimetheus went to warp, to get out f the system. Once they were out, the
transwarpdrive was engaged. And, to everyone's relief, it worked perfectly.
It's taking the crew an hour to get from Pandora to Earth, for some well
deserved shore-leave. In this time, lots of things have happened. The crew
had been busy with their daily routines... investigating a new disease,
giving tours to a reporter, investigating the sudden hysteria from another
crewmember, declaring love for each other, and playing a modified
childs-program in the holodeck, to name a few things.
Now, the Epimetheus is less then half an hour away from earth, where the
crew will enjoy their shoreleave. But will the crew even make it, or will
they be too stressed because of all their daily activities...
