“Ooompff.”  Jack grunted as a blue and red tidal wave knocked him out of the path of the phaser discharge.  He didn’t have time to thank Gar because as they both hit the ground they were forced to roll out of the way as HOOD’s security chief continued to fire his phaser.    “Rick!”  Steele shouted as he rolled back into his cell knowing that he was placing himself into a dead end.  He hoped it would only be figurative.
Commander Gar had been able to roll in the opposite direction and as Rick Payne stumbled forward one hand in front of his face as if it to block out something while he continued to fire his weapon at the captain with the other.  He didn’t seem to notice the prone body of the Andorian engineer his face intently searching out Steele. Eventually he strode by Gar who lashed out with his legs and brought the security officer down.  Jack had been waiting and immediately leaped into the fray.
The struggle was brief and was broken up when Rick seemed to return to his senses.  “Captain?”
Jack and Gar traded a look before turning back to examine Payne.  “Did you want to perhaps explain yourself commander?”  Jack asked breaking the bewildered silence.
“I’m not quite sure captain.  I was in my cage and then my phaser suddenly started to work. I took down the forcefield and I stepped out into the corridor.  Except it wasn’t the corridor.  It was some frozen wasteland.  I was walking through a blizzard and then I could suddenly see this large animal charging towards me.  I started firing my phaser and a few seconds later I returned here.”
Jack loosened his grip and then returned to his feet.  “You never left.  The animal you  thought you were shooting at was me.”
“You sir?”
“Some sort of mind control.”  Gar reasoned.  “Does your phaser still work commander?”
Rick powered down the setting and carefully aimed at the floor.  It fired.  Jack and then Gar tried theirs with the same result.
A sense of impending disaster began to descend on Jack as he began walking down the corridor towards the cell that Zade and Stile were in.  He was relieved to see the forcefield was deactivated while at the same time concerned at the implications.  As the three HOOD officers strode into the cell they found the doctor and navigator standing and staring at each other.
“Dr. Corbett?”  Jack asked not expecting and answer.
Gar picked up Stile’s medical tricorder and quickly ran it over both of them.  “Lifesigns are stable, brian function elevated as are their stress levels.”
Jack reached out to grab the doctor’s shoulder.  As he did the scene changed.
“Welcome to the Alamo sar.”  Stile said after a brief pause.  He nodded to Gar and Payne.  “I wonder if you are all real or a further figament of my imagination.”
“Real enough.”  Jack answered as he took in his new surroundings.  “The Alamo?  Texas?”  He grimaced as Stile nodded.  “I hate westerns.”
<<<NRPG>>>
Ugh that was terrible.
Too bad we don’t have nameless Red Shirt who can get killed to ‘prove’ this is real.
Well lets see we’ve gone from ‘The Corbomite Maneuver’ to ‘The Menagerie’ to ‘Spectre of the Gun’.  I wonder how many more episodes we can cover here.  I guess you could even make a case we briefly covered ‘All our Yesterdays’

[ORIGINS] USS HOOD: A New Reality

by Andy Catterick

SD: 2261.188

Scene: Unknown

“Ooompff.” Jack grunted as a blue and red tidal wave knocked him out of the path of the phaser discharge. He didn’t have time to thank Gar because as they both hit the ground they were forced to roll out of the way as HOOD’s security chief continued to fire his phaser. “Rick!” Steele shouted as he rolled back into his cell knowing that he was placing himself into a dead end. He hoped it would only be figurative.

Commander Gar had been able to roll in the opposite direction and as Rick Payne stumbled forward one hand in front of his face as if it to block out something while he continued to fire his weapon at the captain with the other. He didn’t seem to notice the prone body of the Andorian engineer his face intently searching out Steele. Eventually he strode by Gar who lashed out with his legs and brought the security officer down. Jack had been waiting and immediately leaped into the fray.

The struggle was brief and was broken up when Rick seemed to return to his senses. “Captain?”

Jack and Gar traded a look before turning back to examine Payne. “Did you want to perhaps explain yourself commander?” Jack asked breaking the bewildered silence.


“I’m not quite sure captain. I was in my cage and then my phaser suddenly started to work. I took down the forcefield and I stepped out into the corridor. Except it wasn’t the corridor. It was some frozen wasteland. I was walking through a blizzard and then I could suddenly see this large animal charging towards me. I started firing my phaser and a few seconds later I returned here.”

Jack loosened his grip and then returned to his feet. “You never left. The animal you thought you were shooting at was me.”

“You sir?”

“Some sort of mind control.” Gar reasoned. “Does your phaser still work commander?”

Rick powered down the setting and carefully aimed at the floor. It fired. Jack and then Gar tried theirs with the same result.

A sense of impending disaster began to descend on Jack as he began walking down the corridor towards the cell that Zade and Stile were in. He was relieved to see the forcefield was deactivated while at the same time concerned at the implications. As the three HOOD officers strode into the cell they found the doctor and navigator standing and staring at each other.

“Dr. Corbett?” Jack asked not expecting and answer.

Gar picked up Stile’s medical tricorder and quickly ran it over both of them. “Lifesigns are stable, brian function elevated as are their stress levels.”

Jack reached out to grab the doctor’s shoulder. As he did the scene changed.

“Welcome to the Alamo sar.” Stile said after a brief pause. He nodded to Gar and Payne. “I wonder if you are all real or a further figament of my imagination.”

“Real enough.” Jack answered as he took in his new surroundings. “The Alamo? Texas?” He grimaced as Stile nodded. “I hate westerns.”

Ugh that was terrible.

Well lets see we’ve gone from ‘The Corbomite Maneuver’ to ‘The Menagerie’ to ‘Spectre of the Gun’. I wonder how many more episodes we can cover here. I guess you could even make a case we briefly covered ‘All our Yesterdays’
