Summary
After returning home to the correct time line the Pacifica began the slow process of transporting the USS Noble to Starbase 74. On the way to the Starbase the Noble's crew were debriefed by the Pacifica's Counselor Lieutenant Commander Vanessa Baron who discovered that a number of the Noble's crew were suffering from memory loss. Even with the assistance of Doctor Connie Morgan they were unable to discover the cause of the memory loss. Meanwhile Lieutenant Mark Kirkwood continued his repair work on the Noble and discovered a strange energy source coming from inside the Noble's primary reactor. Being unable to scan the energy at all, he called for Commander Buzz Polaris who came and took a look for himself only to find that the energy source had completely disappeared which allowed the primary reactor to come online for the first time since the ship was salvaged. From this point Commander Buzz Polaris headed to the bridge of the Noble and began to act strange and on returning to the Pacifica he was spotted crawling around a number of the ship's jefferies tubes. He eventually returned to the Noble where he unleashed an attack on the [[USS Pacifica|Pacifica with the Noble's phasers damaging the USS Pacifica heavily before withdrawing towards a nearby nebula.
At a loss to discover the reasons behind Polaris' actions the crew began to investigate and eventually after extensive work by Doctor Morgan and [[James Harris|Lieutenant JG Harris the reason was eventually discovered. [[Buzz Polaris|Commander Polaris had been possessed by an alien force like the Noble's crew before them. With this new found information Lieutenant Akaris Venn lead a runabout mission to catch up with the Noble while the Pacifica's crew continued with repairs. The recovery mission proved to be quite dangerous as the alien changed bodies a number of times, it eventually became trapped inside the mind of Second Lieutenant Rogal Dorn due to his mental abilities. With the alien captured inside of an injured Dorn the runabout crew returned to the Pacifica.
Upon more study and with the help of a abandoned cat that [[James Harris|Harris had discovered on the Noble they were able to discover that there was another alien onboard the Pacifica. The crew managed to track the alien and stopped it from gaining access to the Pacifica's computer. When confronted by Ensign Adam James the alien in a possessed crewman crewman's body attacked the ensign before it transferred into James' mind leaving him injured and unconscious. A tired Doctor Morgan and the rest of the Pacifica's medical staff managed to treat James' injuries.
While James was unconscious, he successfully made first level contact with the alien inside of him and was able to learn more about the lifeforms. With the help of the alien inside of him James was able to overcome the sedatives he was under and woke back up in sickbay, where he served as the aliens liaison to the crew giving them a means to send the aliens home peacefully. After heavy discussion by the senior crew Butterworth allowed the mission to get the aliens home to commence. The mission involved taking a runabout into the nebula and allowing the alien to recharge themselves while the Pacifica's engineering teams repaired the USS Noble so that it had enough power to cause a heavy explosion which would open a gap in the fabric of space that would allow the aliens to return to their home. Ensign Francine Hart was chosen to lead the runabout mission with Dorn and James.
While Kirkwood and the Pacifica's new Assistant Chief Engineer Lieutenant Junior Grade Marcus Cesarian began to ready the Noble for it's part in the mission. Ensign Hart got the runabout mission under way and after a bumpy ride in the nebula the aliens recharged themselves and some how mangaged to stablise the nebula. After repairs were completed on the Noble Commander Polaris flew it into the nebula and met up with the runabout. He beamed himself over to the runabout as it flew out of the nebula and the Noble exploded taking the aliens back to their home.
