Alicia managed to pick up an answer from a strange anomaly up ahead, it appear to be a signal from herself and the intrepid. responding to her distress call!
The communications were intermittent due to the anomaly storm from which the ‘Other Intrepid’ was responding. Alicia explained that the ship was without power and had no time for the drives to recharge before all life support has run out.
Meanwhile, Popkiss picked up a signal on the edge of his sensors, it appear to be a large ship. The signal kept disappearing.
Lt Peridot reported that the replication of the antidote was still processing, delayed by the power shutdown, but the ship’s power will be depleted before the antidote will be complete.
The ‘Other Intrepid’ from the anomaly said they were working on a way to reflect energy through the anomaly but they had no way to direct it.
Captain Fang, ordered that the crew manufacture drones with reflective panels so they can be sent out and reflect the energy to the Drive Recharge receptors.
Popkiss. picked up the signal and with Bruuks’ help, managed to scan the vessel. It appeared to be a Polarian Oblivian. The largest class of starship to exist, only a few were made. However, its spec showed an amalgamation of different tech.
Jag reported that the Drones were ready to launch. At this point suddenly the large 4km Oblivion scanned them and sent a message over their comms. ‘Biological forms, we seek the Central Overseeing Binary Assigned Logic Terminal. Slow your vessel and prepare to be eradicated
With no power to raise shields or arm weapons, Captain orders all remaining power to the engine and started to make their approach towards the anomaly.
The Slow moving Oblivian began to speed towards them in a race against time before the colossal vessel was within firing range!
The drones were launched, The ‘Other Intrepid, managed to construct a reflective generator and started to transmit the energy through the anomaly. With clever drone control, the crew started to recharge the Intrepids Engines. With seconds to go, The captain ordered a jump out of the system.
The remaining two days, saw the crew receiving the cure for the infection, and the bodies of the space spiders were incinerated along with any who did not survive.
The Captain gave orders for the crew to rotate light duties and they spent the time developing their characters.
News reached them of evolving civil war within La-Zar spae the newly appointed President and her family were all assassinated. Also, a La-Zar warship destroyed a Felor Civilian transport attempting to leave the war zone. The Felor have responded by amassing their armada.
As they approached Aurian space to collect the crew and receive some repairs. Bruuk was contacted by her cousin who invited her to view a spectacular anomaly that only happens once a century. The Captain was also invited with 2 guests of choice and 1 security guard.
The Captain chose Jag and Kroom as guests and Popkiss as security detail.
A shuttle arrived and collected the guests on arrival into the system. They were taken to the party ship where thousands were gathering to enjoy the spectacle of the solar flares.
