USS Republic Admiral’s Log Stardate 51503.30

USS Republic Admiral’s Log Stardate 51503.30

 

Computer, begin recording, Mission log Admiral Errrika BluRox.

 

I can’t believe that we’re going through this again. Not just the fact that several of my crew have been personally assaulted and treated with a mutagen, but that it’s coming from the same ‘whacko’ that we thought we had locked away close to 17 years ago. In fact, we had thought that the crazed terraforming specialist, H’riss J’Rom had been killed in the Breen attack on Earth during the Dominion War. The attack had all but obliterated the detention section where he had been housed that it had been presumed that all the prisoners in that section had been vaporized. Evidently, somebody was wrong. Very wrong.

 

We have been investigating the lack of contact from several deep space listening stations, a few small colony worlds and controversial transforming locations, and what we found will shock and confound those in the Federation for years to come. I’d dare to say it’s shock those from outside the Federation as well, that something like this could occur.

We are waiting for our security, science and engineering teams to complete transferring records and samples found on the planet up to the ship so that we can see if there is any way to help restore not only our own people, but as many of what appears in rough estimates to be close to 1700 others that had been experimented upon as well.

We have contacted Star Fleet and have requested Priority One assistance with medical and science teams, to make all attempts to help these people. I cannot imagine what may happen to those that we are unable to help. Currently we have teams isolating them in their barracks locations and locking them in with force fields for everyone’s safety.

We have found murder, sabotage, cannibalism and heavens knows what other types of atrocities that we’ve yet to uncover. There is no way that J’Rom could have done this on his own, and his accomplices are either still on the planet, or were in the ships we either destroyed or….the one that got away. Yet..we do have a trajectory for it, and there is nothing along its path, it will eventually have to turn back, and then either the Republic, or another of our fleet will deal with them in the most harsh of manners. I intend to find all that were responsible, all that had even a bit of complicity. Those facilities had to be built somehow, supplies stored and received. We will find them, they will pay.

 

The fact that this ‘animal’ for lack of a better term, has brought so much harm and death to so many is confounding. The fact that he apparently was obsessed with my First Officer still, after what harm he did to her those many years ago, angers me to no end. Yet, there is no recourse at this juncture, as he now will hurt no others along the way. From Will and the others have reported to me, after he had injected Captain Kwai and began transforming her, he somehow lost control of her, and in her rage, she has put an end to him. Literally. From the preliminary reports I briefly received, it seems in her enraged state, along with her mutated size, form and strength, has ripped his head from his shoulders.

 

My main concern at this moment however, is how this will affect Rian when, or perhaps I should say ‘if’ we are able to help her and reverse this terrible change. It appears that he’s taken the time to ‘perfect’ his method, it’s much more complex than before from what Holly has reported. She stated that multiples strains of DNA were used, and were inserted at various linkages that it will be much more difficult to change her back than the last time, when we just used the transporter to use her medical and DNA scans to replace the abnormal DNA. This time, it substituted in phases and is much more complex, but the crew is working on it. Many of the others, do not seem to be so complex, it’s as if he had made a special concoction especially for her, as his preliminary notes are noting, that he had planned to regain her somehow, and make her the head of his new race.

 

As for the others, it seems Jax was spared the treatment, but was injured in an altercation with another of the mutants. Will concerns me however. He received the same treatment as did the young medic they brought back, himself mutated into some sort of lizard. Why has there been no change in his cells? We must question if Will may suddenly begin to change as well, the implications on the safety of the crew and if not, then why? Could it be a side effect of all the earlier mutations he had been subjected too?

As we are still short on medical staff, having been off the ship for a symposium and then being called to a medical emergency on Daltos 5, our junior staff has been overworked and Holly says that the young doctor they returned with, seems to have all his knowledge retained, if not his form. His service record noted he would be promoted to Ensign upon returning from this field duty, and I’ve seen that it’s already been processed, granting him a field promotion to full Ensign.

 

I hope to read the reports from the rest of the away teams once I return to sickbay to check back in. I also need to go back and check on Rian. I hope that we will be able to help her, and as smart as she is, I worry that if she too retains her knowledge, she may be able to escape that confinement field and cause grievous harm to others. Out of precaution, I’ve taken the step to revoke her command privileges for the moment, and Commander August Robinson will have to assume the post for the time being.

I want to try to comfort Rian, but I know if I enter that field, that I will only end up like J’Rom, until we can find some way to reach her. Someway to make her understand and calm down. Holly is the only one that can actually interact with her, and I know that Holly already makes Rian on edge.

 

I do not know how this will turn out, I can only pray that the stars will shine some light on the answers. Computer, end log.
