WARPED STARFIELD AS WELL. SHE IS ALSO DRINKING A CUP OF COFFEE.
CUT TO: INT-ENTERPRISE, MAIN SICKBAY. THIS IS A LARGE CIRCULAR ROOM WITH TEN BIO-
BEDS ON EITHER SIDE OF THE WALLS. AT THE BACK ARE THREE SURGICAL BEDS
CONNECTED BY THEIR HEADS. DOCTOR DYA PROUSE IS ASSEMBLING THE TRIAGE STAFF.
CUT TO: INT-ENTERPRISE, BRIDGE, CLOSE ON CHAVEZ.
CHAVEZ: NOW ENTERING THE RENZILLIA 7 SYSTEM.
MACGREGOR: DROP TO IMPULSE POWER.
CUT TO: EXT-SPACE. THE ENTERPRISE DROPS OUT OF WARP OVERHEAD. IT FLIES BY, INTO
A LARGE ASTEROID FIELD. AS IT MOVES AWAY, THE WARP NACELLE OF A SOVEREIGN
CLASS STARSHIP FLOATS BY.
CUT TO: INT-ENTERPRISE BRIDGE. MACGREGOR ACTIVATES THE COMM PANEL ON HIS CHAIR.
MACGREGOR: ADMIRAL JANEWAY, PLEASE REPORT TO THE...
AT THAT MOMENT, JANEWAY ENTERS VIA THE TURBOLIFT.
MACGREGOR: ...BRIDGE.
JANEWAY: REPORT CAPTAIN.
MACGREGOR: WE HAVE JUST ENTERED THE RENZILLIA 7 SYSTEM. SHIP IS ON YELLOW
ALERT. WE ARE MAINTAINING SENSOR SWEEPS OF THE AREA, NOTHING SO FAR,
STARFLEET OR ALIEN.
FAWKES: SIR, I THINK I MAY HAVE FOUND SOMETHING.
MACGREGOR: WHAT IS IT LIEUTENENT?
FAWKES: FRAGMENTS SIR. SIGNATURES MATCH THAT OF THE WOLVERINE, M.L.KING AND
THE REMINGTON.
MACGREGOR SLUMPS INTO HIS CHAIR AND STAIRS AT THE FLOOR BLANKLY.
JANEWAY: MICHAEL, I'M SO SORRY.
MACGREGOR: I..I CAN'T...
TOBAL: SIR, SENSORS ARE SHOWING A BIOMASS MOVING TOWARDS THE SHIP OFF OUR
STARBOARD STERN.
MACGREGROR SNAPS OUT OF HIS STUPER.
MACGREGOR: PUT IT UP!
TOBAL PRESSES A FEW BUTTONS ON HIS PANEL. THE SCREEN ACTIVATES. OUTSIDE, ONE
CAN SEE LARGE AND SMALL ASTEROIDS, PIECES OF METAL, THE STARBOARD NACELLE AND
A SMALL, AMBER COLOURED OBJECT MOVING TOWARDS THE SHIP.
MACGREGOR: MAGNIFY!
THE SCREEN ZOOMS IN ON THE LITTLE OBJECT. MACGREGOR'S WORST FEARS ARE
REALIZED. THE OBJECT IS A BIO-SHIP BELONGING TO SPECIES 8472.
MACGREGOR: GODAMMIT!! RED ALERT! ALL HANDS MAN YOUR BATTLE STATIONS!!!
FAWKES: THEY'RE ALREADY ON US!
MACGREGOR: BRACE FOR IMPACT! BRACE BRACE BRACE!!
CUT TO: EXT-SPACE. THE BIO-SHIP MAKES A RUN FOR THE ENTERPRISE'S PORT NACELLE.
THE BIO-SHIP OPENS FIRE. THE BEAM LOOKS LIKE A STREAK OF YELLOW FIRE. THE BEAM
HITS THE ENTERPRISE'S SHEILDS. THE BIO-SHIP MOVES OFF.
CUT TO: INT-ENTERPRISE, BRIDGE. EVERYONE IS STUNNED TO SEE THE BIO-SHIP TAKE OFF.
MACGREGOR: I'VE NEVER SEEN THEM BE DETERRED LIKE THAT BEFORE.
JANEWAY: THEY'RE UP TO SOMETHING.
THROUGH THE VIEWSCREEN, ONE CAN SEE THE BIO-SHIP BECOME NOSE TO NOSE WITH THE
ENTERPRISE. THE BIO-SHIP BEGINS TO SHIMMER.
JANEWAY:(QUIETLY) OH NO. (LOUDER) MOVE US OFF HELM, NOW!
TOBAL LOOKS TO THE CAPTAIN.
TOBAL: SIR?
MACGREGOR: DO IT ENSIGN!
TOBAL: AYE.
CUT TO: EXT-SPACE. THE BIO-SHIP IS CENTER FRAME AND STILL SHIMMERING. THE
ENTERPRISE BEGINS MOVING OFF.
CUT TO: EXT-SPACE. THE BIO-SHIP STOPS SHIMMERING. IT IS NOW ABOUT ONE METER

DARTS TOWARDS THE ENTERPRISE.
CUT TO: INT-ENTERPRISE BRIDGE. MACGREGOR LEAPS TO HIS FEET.
MACGREGOR: ENSIGN TOBAL, EMERGENCY WARP!!
CUT TO: EXT-SPACE, THE ENTERPRISE DOES A BARREL ROLL AND IS AIMING TO GO TO
WARP. BUT THE BIO-SHIP CUTS THEM OFF. IT OPENS FIRE AGAIN, THIS TIME IT IS A BLUE
BEAM. IT CUTS RIGHT THROUGH THE SHIP'S SHEILDS, HITTING THE PORT NACELLE. THE
ENTERPRISE LOOSES CONTROL AND BEGINS TO TUMBLE. IT HITS MANY SMALL ASTEROIDS
ON IT'S WAY. ALL THE ASTEROIDS, HOWEVER, STRIKE THE SHEILDS INSTEAD OF THE HULL.
CUT TO: INT-ENTERPRISE, BRIDGE. MANY PEOPLE ARE THROWN FROM THEIR POSTS.
MONITERS EXPLODE IN PEOPLES' FACES, SMALL FIRES START EVERYWHERE. THE CAPTAIN,
WHO HAS FALLEN TO HIS KNEES, QUICKLY GETS UP WITH THE HELP OF HIS CHAIR.
MACGREGOR: REPORT!!!
FAWKES: INJURIES REPORTED ON ALL DECKS! MAIN WEAPONS ARRAY IS DOWN! THE
STARBOARD NACELLE HULL HAS BEEN BREACHED! WARP DRIVE IS DOWN! SIR, SHEILDS
ARE AT 95%.
MACGREGOR IS DUMBFOUNDED.
MACGREGOR: WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT!?
AS HE IS SAYING THIS, MACGREGOR IS ALSO WALKING TOWARDS FAWKES.
FAWKES: I DON'T KNOW HOW IT HAPPENEND! THEY JUST CUT THROUGH THE SHEILDS.
MIKE, I THINK THAT FIRST SHOT WAS JUST TO TAKE A SAMPLE.
MACGREGOR: WHAT DO YOU MEAN "A SAMPLE" ?
THE SHIP ROCKS HARD AGAIN. FAWAKES AND MACGREGOR ALMOST LOOSE THEIR
BALANCE.
FAWKES: HULL BREACH ON DECK 39!
MACGREGOR: WHAT DO YOU MEAN "A SAMPLE" !?
FAWKES: I THINK THAT THE FIRST SHOT WAS TO ASSESS THE STATUS OF OUR SHEILDS!
TO, GAIN AN ADVANTAGE! NOTICE HOW, AFTER THE FIRST SHOT, THEY STOPPED AND
ADAPTED?!
MACGREGOR: YEAH I SAW.
THE SHIP ROCKS AGAIN. MACGREGOR WALKS OUT TO THE CENTER OF THE BRIDGE.
MACGREGOR: MR.FAWKES, RELEASE THE HOUNDS.
FAWKES SMILES AND ENTERS A FEW COMMANDS INTO HIS WORKSTATION.
CUT TO: EXT-SPACE.SIX SAUCERS DETACH FROM THE SIDE OF ENTERPRISE'S ENGINEERING
HULL. THEY FLY BACK, FROM THE SHIP AND ESTABLISH A PURSUIT FOR THE BIO-SHIP.
CUT TO: INT-ENTERPRISE BRIDGE.
MACGREGOR: LOCK TARGET AND FIRE!!
CUT TO: EXT-SPACE. THE "HOUNDS" LAUNCH A MASSIVE BARRAGE OF PHASER AND
TORPEDO FIRE. EVERY SHOT HITS THE BIO-SHIP, BUT NONE HAVE ANY EFFECT. THE BIO-SHIP
SUDDENLY SLOWS DOWN TO GET BEHIND THE "HOUNDS". THE BIO-SHIP OPENS FIRE. ONE
SAUCER IS TOTALLY OBLITERATED. ANOTHER IS JUST CLIPPED. THIS SAUCER IS SENT
SPIRALING BACK TOWARDS THE BIO-SHIP. THE FIREY WRECK OF A "HOUND" SMASHES INTO
THE BIO-SHIP, CAUSING VERY SERIOUS DAMAGE TO THE BIO-SHIP.
CUT TO: INT-ENTERPRISE, BRIDGE. ALL ARE REJOYCED AT THE SIGHT OF THE CRIPPLED BIO-
SHIP. JOY, HOWEVER, TURNS TO CONCERN WHEN THE DAMAGED BIO-SHIP BEGINS
SPIRALING TOWARDS THE ENTERPRISE.
MACGREGOR: GET US OUT OF HERE NOW!!!
TOBAL: WE'LL NEVER MAKE IT!!
MACGREGOR: ALL HANDS, BRACE FOR IMPACT!!!
CUT TO: EXT-SPACE. THE BIO-SHIP SPIRALS DOWN TO THE ENTERPRISE. IT PHASES
THROUGH THE SHEILDS THEN PLOUGHS RIGHT INTO A SHUTTLEBAY ON THE PORT SIDE OF
THE SAUCER. THE BIO-SHIP RIPS THROUGH THE ENTERPRISE'S HULL AND EMBEDS ITSELF
DEEP INSIDE THE SHIP. WHEN THE BIO-SHIP STOPS MOVING, ONLY ITS TAIL IS STICKING OUT
OF THE HULL.
CUT TO: INT-ENTERPRISE BRIDGE. MOST OF THE MONITERS BLOW OUT, MANY PEOPLE ARE
THROWN TO THE FLOOR, MANY FIRES BREAK OUT. ADMIRAL JANEWAY FALLS AND HITS HER
HEAD ON A BANISTER. SHE HITS THE FLOOR UNCONSIOUS. ALL THE LIGHTS ON BOARD GO
OUT. THE ONLY TIME ONE CAN SEE, IS WHEN THE ALERT LIGHT FLASHES. ALL IS SILENT ON
THE BRIDGE.
CUT TO: EXT-SPACE THE ENTERPRISE DRIFTS SILENTY ALONG. IT SLOWLY EXITS THE
ASTEROID FIELD.
