Voyager settled into orbit. Below them was a small, seemingly deserted
planet.
"Report Mr. Tuvok" Commanded Captain Janeway, who sat in the captains
chair.
"There are no life signs captain" replied Tuvok, "Although, there is a
small energy source occurring on the East Side of the planet."
"On screen" Said Janeway.
An image appeared on the screen, showing a mountain range stretching for miles, an opening could just be seen towards the center. "The source is coming from within the mountain" Stated Tuvok. "Prepare an away team" Said Janeway looking at Chakotay. "Yes captain" replied Chakotay, at which point he, Harry Kim, Tuvok and two other crewmembers stood and left the bridge.
Once prepared the away team entered the transport room. "Five to beam down" "Aye sir" replied the ensign standing at the controls. The team walked across the room and stood on the transporter, moments later their bodies seemed to disintegrate and they were gone. On the planet below their bodies reappeared. Chakotay touched his star- fleet badge on his chest; "We're outside the entrance, following the energy signal." "Understood" said Janeway.
The away team entered the cave. It seemed normal enough, wet, cold, dark. Kim flicked on a flashlight and a soft light swept the walls. The team started forward, Chakotay leading the way. After minutes of walking through the same mind numbing scenery Harry's torch lit up a metal wall with a door in the middle. "Finally" muttered Harry, Chakotay smiled. Approaching the door they saw it was a standard lock easily broke by a small phaser charge. Tuvok lifted his phaser and a stream of light hit the door. The lock broke immediately and the door swung open. Inside, the room was full of boxes and chests, Harry guessed it was a storage room. On the far wall there was a huge door, which looked like a vault. "Captain, we have found a sort of storage room, full of boxes. The energy source is coming from a very heavily secured door" Chakotay explained. "Bring the boxes back with you, they might gives a clue as to what's behind that door, we might not like it." Said Janeway. "Oh, by the way," She continued, "you'll need to carry the boxes out, the transporter can't penetrate the mountain." She smiled, although she couldn't hear it, she knew they were all groaning.
The away team entered the bridge, clearly tired. Janeway smiled, "Sorry guys." She said. "Its ok" Panted Harry. "What did you find?" "Nothing valuable, clothes, items, personal belongings by the looks of it and video tapes" "Video tapes?" Inquired Janeway. "Yes, it allowed us to date them at the 21st century."
Upon hearing this, Lieutenant Tom Paris' head hot up, he was obsessed with the era. "They should be viewed, I believe we have the facilities. Away team, you rest, I'll give someone else that job." She saw Tom Paris' longing look. Laughing, she said, "Mr. Paris, would you mind?" "Not at all captain." He replied grinning. "There's a lot of hours added Harry. "Even better" said a smug Paris. "You may begin straight away," said Janeway. "Thank you Captain" he said. Tom stood up and left the bridge with away team.
