Dark Future
Prologue:
The U.S.S Voyager was cruising through space at warp 6.3. It was 0400 hours, and Ensign Kim had the bridge. Suddenly the bridge shook. "What was that?" Ensign Kim asked.
"We've dropped out of warp sir. I'm picking up a massive distortion ahead," replied the Science officer.
"Captain Janeway to the bridge. On screen." The space in front of the ship seemed to be swirling.
"What is that Ensign?"
"Sensors show it to be some sort of fold in space. I can't tell much else sir. The anomaly is deflecting most of our scans."
With a hiss the turbo lift doors and Captain Janeway stepped out, suppressing a yawn. "Care to explain that little bump Ensign?" She asked.
"An anomaly pulled us out of warp captain. We haven't been able to identify it."
"Tuvok, send a class one probe. Let's see what we can find out," she ordered.
"Probe away." A few seconds later the signal was lost. "Captain, the probe has been pulled into the anomaly."
Suddenly the ship gave a massive shiver.
"Captain, the probe appears to have generated a graviton wave when it entered the anomaly. Voyager has been caught in it. We are being pulled into the distortion," Tuvok reported.
"Full reverse," Janeway ordered.
"No effect. Contact with the event horizon in five seconds."
The trip through the anomaly was surprisingly smooth. It looked like Voyager was traveling through a blue and white tunnel, almost like the inside of a wave. After a few minutes they were out.
"Report," Captain Janeway demanded.
"Shields down to 25, minor hull breaches on deck 12. Repair crews responding." Tuvok replied.
"Harry can you gat a fix on our position?"
"No mam, the sensors don't recognize any of the stars nearby. Even astrometrics can't tell much."
"Captain, I'm detecting weapons fire two light years away."
"Set a course, maybe someone there can tell us where we are."
Ok, I need some advice. Should Voyager encounter:
A) a Rouge Trader
B) a space marine battle barge or
C) an imperial battle fleet on a crusade
As soon as I get some responses I'll post the next chapter. Until then may the Emperor guide you.
