Jeph searched Stellar Cartography. His tricorder showed nothing unusual. He hoped that if in fact Affity's powers were being blocked, that the source of the block would register on the tricorder. He completed deck 30, and started down to 31 when he got his first imprint from Affity - 'search of deck 4 complete, you okay?' God, he thought, she's ahead of me! He replied and continued his search.

Down on the surface of Romulus, Ty was very worried, she had lost contact with her first officer and her ship. She & the team were stranded. She turned to Chandler, his eyes giving nothing away, for the first time in her life, she had no idea what to do. "We must continue." she said to her crew, "at all costs, we must succeed."

Jeph had completed his search of deck 40. Nothing. He reached 41 - engineering. When he steped into the main hallway, he felt Affity scream, and before he could turn around, she was standig in front of him. "What the hell happened?" he asked.

"I found Ocett. Only..... it's not Ocett. There's no time, to explain, come with me" She grabbed him, and the medallion and they dissapeared from engineering, and reappeared in sickbay.

"What is that?" Jeph asked pointing to a large black object on the med-table.

"That." she paused, "That is Ocett. Or maybe it would be correct to say, WAS Ocett."
