<<Sending this for Oriana....>> ==== Sickbay, U.S.S. Chimera ===== Oriana ran along the corridors somewhere. She can`t say, where she was or where she ran, but she knew, she must run. Now! She heard it again. A hollow sound. And again. But now she knew, where it was. She turned and ran another way. The building ended with large portal unexpectedly and she was in alley. The sun shone and the air was oppressive. Now she saw him. A young Vulcan man stood in the alley and waved at her. She smiled, but the smile froze her on the lips. A ship appeared behind the man, but he did not see it. She cried at him: "Behind you," but he waved at her again and smiled. She began to run to him and continued crying. But she was slower than the ship. The man turned in the last moment. Everything slowed. Every second seemed to last an hour. Oriana didn`t know, who this man was, but his name appeared in her mind at once: "Sitok!" she cried. The ship shot off again and the whole surrounding exploded. The shock wave knocked her down , but she was on her legs again in several seconds and continued to run. She knelt beside the man and she turned him. But now it was a woman, looking as a Vulcan. "Saalin?" said Oriana surprised. She looked around her. They were on a federation starship. The sirens blared and things peeped and hissed and blinked everywhere. "Ship evacuation! The whole ships crew leave the ship. I repeat: Ship evacuation!" the voice of the ships tactical officer sounded in the corridors. Oriana took Saalin over her shoulders: "Come on, we must leave the ship." Both women went along the corridors. The whole ship was shaken by the explosions. With several meters still to go,the last explosion was closer. Oriana heard the sound of straining broken metal. She quickened her steps. The pieces of structure fell around both women. Oriana pulled Saalin to the rescue capsule. The ship shook with the last explosion ... And Oriana came around in sickbay. She felt a touch and she opened her eyes quickly. Someone in a blue uniform was near her, but she couldn't remember, who it could be. He looked at her and got frightened, when he saw, she was looking at him. He opened his mouth and began to tell something, but Oriana heard nothing, because she spotted a small gnome, who climbed onto her bed in that moment. "You do not exist. Go away!" she said and turned aside. But then she jumped from bed. All over the sickbay were gnomes and they moved to her. "Stop! Stop it please," she cried agonizingly. "Stop it," she whispered. {I know the way to stop it.} she thought and she began to concentrate her mind. Her body obeyed instructions from her mind, her vital organs stopped and she fell down in unconsciousness. ====== End Log ====== Ensign Oriana Chief Science Officer USS Chimera
