The bump seemed to be a precursor to a far greater sudden change as the ship’s power began to fluctuate across the ship lights dimmed and brightened so much that it hurt to look at them. Consoles turned off and some exploded as the ship seemingly was taken control of by some forces unknown, the whole scene shifted and changed as the Leviathan started to cross the threshold of the anomaly the ship and the people inside it began to contort and stretch, speech, light and noise seemed to elongate into a low pitch.

Until finally the Leviathan was engulfed into darkness.

As the crew would begin to recover emergency lighting would turn on, anyone near a a port window would see they were no longer where they were, or even there was nothing.

Ensign Miller moved quickly through the ship, helping people as she could by pointing them in the right direction or picking them up onto their feet but ultimately she’d been ordered by the XO to go and see what was happening in engineering. She had tried different consoles and her comm badge through her journey to see if she could make communication with the CIC or engineering but neither responded. Eventually she came to the doors of engineering, like the turbo lifts which were working but painfully slow the doors slowly opened enough for her to squeeze through into the dark room.

“Chief Durheim?” She called out not being able to make out the faces of the engineering officers who were working by torch light, some had even managed to get the portable spotlights out of storage and working, it really took her some time to get here she thought.
