Valentina shook her head. Looking around, the woman wondered first, where she was, and second, why she was ‘waking up’. She glanced to her right and saw the pilot of the shuttle just shaking himself awake as well. “You ok?” She asked, her hand reaching out to touch his arm to be sure.

“Yeah… didn’t hit my head? I think we docked ok. But no idea what happened. You ok, Ma’am?” He shook himself to clear his head and looked down at the dark console. “The shutdown was run. So something happened. I just hope we are on your precious ship and not some Klingon war bird.” He laughed.

“Not a warbird, Lieutenant. Too clean. Look.” She nodded out the front screen to the hull wall they were facing. Definitely Federation ship. “Stay here and run diagnostics. Make sure you can get out of here if you need to.” She got up and grabbed her bag. Dropping the rear ramp of the shuttle, she noticed two NEs sitting up on the floor near the door. “You guys all right? Stay here. Watch the shuttle and help the pilot. I’m heading to the bridge. Something’s not right.”

She went straight to the bridge, rushing thru the halls so if she did see anyone, chances are they were swift ‘hi’ exchanges and that’s all. As she stepped out of the lift, she dropped her bag to the right of the door and looked around to see what the status was. “Commander Bellini reporting. What’s going on?”

The ship was empty..not a living soul aboard. The red alert klaxons were sounding their annoying whoop whoop. The ship itself looked to be undamaged, just unmanned. The normally busy bridge was completely deserted and eerily empty and the only sound was the red alert. Something had indeed gone very wrong. But there was no indication by just looking around what that something was.

Valentina went to the nearest console and turned off the klaxon. “Lords and stars…” she whispered and realized she hadn’t remembered passing anyone in the halls. She had just assumed she was so focused, she had missed them.

Moving to the Captain’s chair she called up the last comm and data entries to try and figure out what had happened. “Computer… how many personnel are aboard the ship?”
