An expedition on Lava Planet 294-10-A turns deadly for our heroes!
Lt. Maia: Oh m-m-m-my! That lava dwelling beast won't let go of our Lava Skimmer!
A MOLTEN MESS! Part 1
Captain's Log Star Date 9:02.1 We are exploring the inner part of Galaxy Doge 1 on a
mission to do stuff!
The great Star Ship Enterprise blazes across space! Nothing can stop it's progress! Not
even a...
LOCATION: main engineering!
Mr. Scott: CAPTAIN KIRK! WE HAVE A WARNING LIGHT ON THE MAIN REACTOR!
Captain Kirk responds through the comm.
Captain Kirk: /WELL SHUT IT DOWN SCOTTY OR ELSE WE'LL LOSE CONTROL
OF THE SHIP!/
But it's way too late as the rockets on the queen ship of the Star Fleet start firing out of
control! Nothing can stop the engines from firing!
LOCATION: BRIDGE
Lt. Sulu: CAPTAIN KIRK! I CANNOT STOP THE SHIP!
Captain Kirk orders Lt. sulu to try to bring the Enterprise to a halt. But, it's no use!
Captain Kirk: It's absolutely no good! We're still screaming forwards! EVERYONE!
SECURE SEAT BELTS!
But just then, Mr. Spock spots a planet at the far range of the telescopic sensors!
Mr. Spock: Captain Kirk! Sensors show a planet at far range! We're closing in on it f...
But just then Mr. Scott's voice crackles over the intecom-net! The reactor's gone
CRITICAL!
The bridge erupts into activity, as the crew works to diagnose the reactor. Just as they
think they solved the problem, a loud BANG shook the enterprise, followed by
screaming as an important seal ruptured! Mr. Scott tries to eject the reactor but the eject
level is frozen in position. It just won't move! The bridge crew hears continued shouting
from main engineering until Mr. Scott rigs up a force-shield to contain the reactor!

Mr. Scott:/Captain Kirk, I've gotten everything under control down here but the
plasmadynamic seal broke!/
Like clockwork Mr. Spock fires up the spectrascope, searching the Lava Planet for
materials to create a new seal. Zip, zip, zip the dot matrix printer creates lines of tiny
dots, showing the chemical and mineral composition of the Lava Planet's surface. Mr.
Spock's brow furrows in concentration as he examines the data. His expression
changes slightly. Is that a smile on his lips? He zooms in the spectrascope, honing in on
materials for a new seal in the lava!
56 minutes later the Star Ship Enterprise is in orbit around Lava Planet 294-10-A and
the away team heads down to Shuttle Bay 1, hops in the Lava Skimmer/descent module
and heads down to the surface!
Captain's Log Supplement. We have touched down on Lava Planet 294-10-A in hopes
of finding the materials to make a new seal for the reactor!
The Lava Skimmer touches down on the surface and the away team starts scanning the
lava field with their hand-held element scanners.
Captain Kirk: Well, did we find what we were looking for?
Lt. Maia responds.
Lt. Maia: Yep! We found it alright! We really should get the stuff and head out! This
place reminds me of Mustafar from Star Wars, Episode III and I don't like it!
But just then...
Lt. Smith: C-captain! Some of the lava just moved t-t-towards us!
Captain Kirk shrugs it off but then the "lava" morphs into it's true form, a monster alien!
The alien loops to its full height, reaching out and grabbing onto the left engine of the
Lava Skimmer with its blob of an appendage. The alien grips tight. It won't let go! It
begins to shake the Lava Skimmer up and down. Lt. Maia pushes the Lava Collection
Scoop through the flexible port and tongs samples of lava from the alien's goopy
appendage. Captain Kirk hollers over the sound of rattling as everything flies around the
skimmer cockpit. His voice shakes with the vibration
Captain Kirk: Le-e-et me-e-e apply fu-u-ull thru-u-ust to get us out of this!
SFX: RRRRRRrRRrRrrRRRrR GRIIIIIND!
Lt. Maia: Got some! Got some! Oh m-m-m-my! That lava dwelling beast won't let go of
our Lava Skimmer! I'll try poking it with the collection scoop!
