Author: Commander Bono
Subject: Gone (New Sim)

"Gorgas here. Sir, we're on approach to Starbase 206."

=/\=Understood Mr. Gorgas, I'm on my way.

Bono excused himself from the others and headed for the nearest turbolift. "Bridge," he said as the turbolift doors slid shut behind him. The turbolift came to life and Bono's mind was filled with things to do now that the Excalibur had returned to StarBase. The repairs alone would probably take a week at least. As all these things were going through his mind, he could not help but feel slightly light-headed. "It must be the bloodwine," he thought. But the feeling grew stronger and stronger until he passed out.

On the bridge of the Excalibur, the turbolift doors opened...but there was no one inside the turbolift.
"That's odd," muttered Gorgas. Then suddenly he too was overtaken by a bout of dizziness. Gorgas got up and headed for the Ready Room, not wanting the junior officers to see him in distress. He just managed to get to the Ready Room without anyone noticing his increasing discomfort. He took a few steps towards the couch and disappeared without a trace.

In Ten-Forward confusion and fear reigned as one by one, each member of the senior staff had collapsed and vanished into thin air. S'Kott, K'Tal, Diven and Teams all gone.......


Bono awoke in a small room. He was lying on a small bunk and he was on a planet -- Azura to be precise -- although it would not have helped him, since neither he nor anyone else from the Alpha Quadrant had ever heard of Azura. In the same room and on their own bunks were Gorgas, S'Kott, Diven, Teams, and K'Tal. Bono was about to check and see if they were alright, when he noticed another presence in the room. A small child was waiting for him, and now that he had awoke gestured to follow him.

Bono did so and was lead into a large room filled with creatures similar in appearance to the small child.

"Welcome to Azura," said a small man seated at the center of the group.
"Who are you? What have you done to my people? And why have you kidnapped us?" shouted Bono.
"We are the people of Azura. Your friends are unharmed and we did not kidnap you," answered the small man.

Bono tapped his com badge, =/\=Bono to Excalibur, please respond.=/\= There was no answer.
"What have ou done to my ship?"

"We have done nothing. Come, sit down. We will tell you all you need as soon as your friends wake from their slumber and join us. It will take a little bit of time, you see. You were the first to be brought over, the effects have worn off on you but not yet on them. Come, sit," said the little man as he gestured towards a small stool.

Bono was unarmed. Yet that did not trouble him. If these people wanted him or his senior officers dead they would have already done so. Against all his instincts, Bono sat down and waited for the others to wake up and join him, he could not do anything else. There was something about these aliens, something that would be revealed soon, but what he could not say.

OOC: This is the start up to the new sim. For the time being all you need to know is that we are unarmed and on a planet many thousands of light years away from Federation space. Also, these aliens are not the enemy.
