On the shore of a beach bathed in moonlight,a boat - which seems to be covered in some sort of throbbing,red seaweed - pulls up and lands with a thud.Then several fiures jump out of the boat,followed by some scurrying.One figure stays in the boat and pulls off again.

The shapes start moving.They seemed to be resting their heads on their shoulders.The scurrying sounds continue once more.Then,a moves into a patch of briht moonlight,and something stops beside him.

Then we see the horror that has been unleashed on this world:

They had gained control of a Nomad Cruiser.All hell was about to break loose.The infection form had clamped onto a space pod blasting off into space,crawling into the vents and shafts as to not get burned.Then when the pod docked,all hell broke loose.The laborers were the first to notice something wrong.A slurping sound was coming from the pod.

When one went to investigate,he dissapeared screaming into the darkness,and a gush of blood sprayed out of the vent.The others ran away,screaming.Then something scampered out,drenched in blood...

A technician was the next victim.He was just working down near the vents close to the bridge,when a giant tongue sucked him noisily up and a crunching sound could be heard when his bones broke from the force of the jaws.Finally,the thing reached the bio-engineering section.The cloning room,to be more precise.Within the hour,almost every human on thw ship was dead.
