    The Manticore is enroute to Statiak Prime, soon to be a new member 
    of the Federation.  A9 has been given the mission to covertly 
    investigate the Statiak people in advance of the induction, as some 
    in the Fed Council have serious suspicions about the society.

    The Manticore has returned to Federation space and are faced 
    with the same Fed Klingon efficiency expert as before we were 
    pulled into the black hole's event horizon.  He beams onto the 
    ship to let us know we "passed the test."  This is quite a trick, since 
    he died when we entered our hyper subspace bubble.  To add to our 
    confusion, he tells us he is from the future and showed up to keep us 
    safely on the right path. Doubling down, he pauses in reverence when 
    he sees Karl at TAC to beg for a touch of the cranky Sec officer's 
    hand.  Reading this briefing over, it sounds more than a little crazy.

    Following an amazing throw of a metal pipe through a Gorn Warrior

    The Manticore was pulled through a black hole just as we jump 
    started the warp drive and got stuck in a pocket of Hyper Subspace. 
    It protected the ship while allowing us to travel at unbelievably high 
    speeds and great distances.  We "popped the bubble" with a photon 
    torpedo and found ourselves in unknown space.  After a terrible 
    explosion, all Sci personnel on duty in the mail lab were killed, leaving 
    just T'Prise, Bren Faliver and SciGuy.  We finally started to move, only 
    to find a group of ships containing the Gorn!  Our warp engines 
    knocked out, so we continue to evade and attempt to find our way 
    home, under cloak and running silent.  After an engineer's SNAFU, we 
    jumped to warp, lost our cloak and shield for a moment and got boarded 
    by a Gorn warrior (or was that second word redundant?)  Kansas is in mid- 
    fight with our new guest in the cargo bay.
