Day Four. Night. March 28th, 912 CY
The star-faring shaman says, "No... the invaders aren't giants. They're man-sized... evolved from the Reptila class I believe... perhaps distantly related to the Gorn. They're all identical... to our eyes at least. And there are a lot more than six."
"Look. Thank you for answering our distress call. I have a lot of questions about who you are and where we are, but I should get to Engineering if I can. Will you come with me?"
The questers of The Kirk are honored to accompany the magical healer to the mysterious Engineer Ring.
Chaka the ape-boy asks the healer about the steel piece on his simian skull.
"Experimental brain surgery? Barbaric..." McCoy mutters ruefully.
Monique Quan proclaims, "YES! I too am with the fleet of stars!"
"Really? You're out of uniform, "Lieutenant"," McCoy says good-naturedly.
The star voyager gathers more wondrous artifacts for the journey. "We may not be coming back this way," he says ominously.
Then McCoy grimaces. He doubles over and a groan tears from his lips. "...something's wrong..." The kindly healer clutches the edge of a table with his hands, knuckles whitening. His face becomes a mask of agony as he trembles violently from head to foot.
McCoy collapses to the floor, screaming.
Suddenly, a splatter of blood explodes on his chest.
McCoy writhes and spasms and the crimson fabric of his shirt is ripped open... from the inside! Bursting outward in an eruption of blood!
McCoy's screams reach their harrowing crescendo as a ghastly creature emerges from the fluids and gore of his sundered body!
