Mission:
Consult the Anomaly
Location: USS Albion
Timeline: Present
ON:
Zatara: ::Finding herself utterly lost and confused at what was currently happening on the bridge she found herself questioning her reality; was this some form of an elaborate simulation? Another holodeck programme?::
#SNIP#
Genno: "Commander. I do have to endorse mister mack's request. if we are going to be under way on ISS Martin,
at least one of us needs commander status."
Andrews: "I will consider that."
(text only, your-eyes-only): =^="From Admiral Ken Gillis, Fleet Command. Yes Commander Andrews, you will consider that."=^=
/ #SNIP#
Zatara: ::Gets to her feet, laughing:: “Alright, I’ve had enough of this. What’s going on here? This entire situation is ridiculous.
Andrews: “Ensign?”
Zatara: “Sir, are you telling me that you don’t feel that something weird is going on here? This whole situation seems way too fantastical.”
Andrews: ::Appears willing to listen:: “What are your theories?”
Zatara: “The Romulans, the exploding phaser, the ISS Martin, the jail cells, Risa, basically the last 48 hours of our lives!”
Andrews: ::Rubs his chin:: “I have been unusually preoccupied these last few days… I’ve felt distracted… distant.” ::Looks over to Zatara:: “What do you suggest we do to get out of this loop of hell?”
Zatara: ::Reads the sensor displays on her helm console:: “The artificial quantum singularity at the heart of the Romulan ship is about to collapse in on itself before exploding spectacularly. I suggest we move the Albion towards it and allow the ship to be destroyed.”
Mack: ::Stepping forward:: “She’s insane! We aren’t in a simulation. This is real! Sir, you can’t consider her plan.”
Andrews: ::Looks at Mack:: “Something feels totally off with this situation. I think its worth the risk.” ::Turns to Zatara:: “Move the Albion within 500 metres of the Romulan ship and then drop our shields.”
Zatara: ::Nods:: “Aye sir, moving us closer. Sensors indicate that the Romulan artificial singularity is about to collapse.”
::The Albion moves within 500 metres of the Romulan ship. Moments later the Romulan ship explodes, destroying the USS Albion in the process. As expected the senior staff find themselves on a deactivated holodeck, completely unharmed::
Rubbletree: ::Clapping his hands together:: My friends, congratulations. Your tests are over. Welcome back to reality. For real this time. I promise.”
OFF:
Hopefully moving us along from the Inshiption plot, lol!
