Stardates 2391.05.17 - 2391.05.19
2391.05.17:
In a standard Starfleet shuttle, Commander Jalando, together with ASTC Keening and Helmsman Ban, brought the Dholari Mr. T'hims home. T'hims had been stranded on Pandora since may 2nd, because he had sneaked on board a Venoghrian ship. And since the relationship between the Venoghrians and the Dholari wasn't all that swell, Commander Jalando and his team decided to take Mr. T'hims home themselves. After all, they might even come up with diplomatic solutions to the Venoghrian/Dholari conflict.
But something went horribly wrong. Out of nowhere, a few ships started attacking the shuttle. In no-time, the shuttle's shields and weapons systems were disabled, letting aliens in space-suits beam on board. They stunned both Lt. Keening and Mr. Ban, and abducted Commander Jalando and Mr. T'hims...

Completely unknown of what happened just the day before, life on Pandora Station continued the way it normally did. However, when, by an accident, a weather program was activated, it started snowing in the Park! This was only holographic snow, but still, it was snow. Most of the children of Pandora Station quickly came to the Park in their lunchbreak, and started playing in the snow. But not only children were there: also Security Officer Zang, Lt. Vrass, Prylar Nivas, and Reporter Darnena were there, enjoying this -probably once in a lifetime- experience. After all, how often does it snow inside a Space Station?
2391.05.19:
While Commander Jalando was captured, he was being tortured quite a lot... until Mr. Zytl, the Ythokan leader, brought him along for medical treatment. Once Jalando lay on a biobed, he was partially paralysed, so that the Doctor could treat him easily. Or would they use Jalando's inability to move as a way to get the information they needed?
On Pandora Station, meanwhile, Captain Kane was rudely woken up because of a transmission, coming in from an unknown source. This transmission stated that they had kidnapped Commander Jalando, and that they would contact Pandora Station later with their demands. Almost immediately Captain Kane ordered a staff-meeting, in which it was decided that the Solstice could at least be prepared, so that they could leave and search for the Commander, and the shuttle with Keening and Ban, whenever they knew where to look.
About an hour after the staff-meeting, Pandora Station received a message from the Huygens Array, which told them that they had received an automated distress signal, coming from a Starfleet Shuttle! So, the order was given to prepare for launch... the Solstice would go look for the missing shuttle!
