The virus quietly spread though the ship, but it caused no panic for no one knew of its existence, no alarms blared, no warning was given. Its effects were instant and devastating: the crew lay unconscious on the floor. Andromeda stared at her crew in horror but there was nothing she could do in her holographic form, and her avatar lay on the floor with the rest of the crew as well as all her bots. Powerless to do anything she just watched willing her crew to wake up.
What happened next shocked and terrified her; the ship was stormed by unknown attackers. Andromeda activated her internal defences or at least that's what was supposed to happen; nothing did. Andromeda found that she no longer had control over ships systems her holographic projectors appeared to be the only thing functional other than gravity and life support.
The attackers made their way though the ship to the bridge where the crew lay defenceless. The attackers brutally kicked Dylan, wither in an effort to assure his unconscious state or just out of brutality was unknown, Andromeda knew that a blow that hard could trigger internal bleeding.
The attackers picked up the limp bodies of Dylan, Tyr, Becka, Trance and even her avatar, and carted them off, to where she could not tell with out her internal sensors.
Something flicked in the back of Andromeda's mind, Harper, Harper was missing, how could she have missed this? Harper had been fixing a blown coolant pipe with any luck he would be hidden in the access shaft; maybe the attackers had missed him.
Seconds passed and Andromeda heard a noise that could only be the sound of the of the attackers vessel leaving the ship, she only hoped it wasn't with her crew but the fear that penetrated her told her this could well be the case.
Time passed, how long Andromeda could not tell, but her fear had long since began to mount as she had heard no word from her crew, and her systems were still off line. What had happened to Tyr, Trance, Becka and her android self? Her fear for Dylan was even greater he had been injured was he still alive? Where any of them? And where was Harper? Did the attackers have him too, or did he avoid capture? So many questions which she had no answers to, she was a all seeing all knowing, powerful High Guard warship, yet she was unable to help her crew, she had failed them.
Suddenly console lights flickered into existence Andromeda could feel her sensors coming back on line; could that mean. "Harper", Andromeda almost yelled with relief as soon as she felt his presence, but relief was short lived his was the only presence she could detect; they were alone. As she feared the crew had been abducted and were by now well out of senor range; she couldn't even detect the other ships trail they were gone along with her crew, disappeared with out a trace.
The end for now.
