PART ONE

It was a beautiful morning, a beautiful sunrise, a beautiful sky.
The sky was colored in purple and red and birds flew over the green hills. Wild horses crossed the river with clear blue water, and a silet breeze swept over the grassy hills.
The sun shined warm on his body. Suddenly the sky became dark, and it was night. In a moment, several strange creatures came up from nowhere and moved towards his way. They screamed like terrifyed children.

Ryan Miller woke up after another one of his strange nightmares he had lately. All shook up he went to the sink and washed his face. Another morning at the HSS Midnight Sun.
After that he headed for the Ship Psychiatrist again, he had been there six times before this.
Well in there, he got the usual questions about the dreams, and how he felt. He always gave Dr Ilya Ahriman the same answers, as usual.
Nothing strange, as he knew Ilya didn't have an exam in pshyciatric treatment, but someone had to take the role as the psychiatrist.

When he got out from the "Health and Sickbay" sector he went to look if his engineering team was ready to go working on the broken teleporter.
Whitout the teleporter they couldn't get in any supplies, and the nearest station was many lightyears away.



It all began twenty years ago, when he and 120 other highly trained men were asigned to the new project. It was about reaching planets to find intelligent life.
Their first stop would be mars, wich already had been colonized by human research corporations.
After that they would be going to the army space station Ticonderoga, the station farest out in the solar system. It was located nearby X-32, five planets away from pluto.
When they passed Ticonderoga they were free. Free to discover new worlds, free to discover new species. They were very excited about it, who shouldn't?
After a couple of years in outer space the strange things began to happen.
Several men of the maintenance crew had dissapared and many of 'em had gone nuts.
Nobody understand what happened. The ships leaders, Captain Reed and Admiral Hayzen, had sent out two marine security squads to find the missing ones. All marines was lost, and there was no trace after them.

PART TWO

As Ryan got to the ECS (Engineering Crew Section, all staff personell ahd itäs own sections with their rooms and bathrooms etc.) he found all his companions asleep. This wasn't unusal, and he woke them all up.
First Elisha Alyon, a very good looking woman but still she got the brains. As he had a crush on her, he always had it, he was very gentle when it came to wake her up.
After her, he went for Thomas O'Reily, a huge man loaded with muscles. To gain respect he woke him up very harch and with dicipline. Then it was time for Eric Brewster to wake up. He was the smart one, and Tyrael Alyon - Elishas brother.

When all was woken, they went to the Main Cafeteria, a large hall where they served breakfast, lunch and all other meals.
Ryan sat next to Thomas who ate his food in an abnormal rate. He turned to Elisha and looked into her eyes, she looked another way.
Ryan rose up from his chair and opened his mouth.

"Today, we get in a new guy. An old marine..."

Everybody in the crew stopped eating and looked at Ryan with large eyes.

"Yes, you heard me. A marine. According to the information i've got, he got hurt on something or by something. They didn't say much, but that's how i got it, anyway, he is well trained in ships engineering."

The others nodded and all seemed to be pleased that they got a competent guy for the job. They had heard about the Health and Sickbay's Crew and how they got in two marines who said they were trained in medical aid and psychiatry. It was a catastrophe.

As they returned to the ECS (or commonly called "home" by Enigneering crew) there the new guy was waiting for them. His name was Bruce Spooner, he was tall and had a well trained, typical army, body.He was very unsocial, didn't almost speak at all.

Today they were having a planning day on howto fix the teleporter. They went trough many different ideas and suggestions.

PART THREE

The next morning, Ryan woke up afdter another of his nightmares. This one was even worse than the one before. He decided not to go to Dr. Ilya today, bu t to wait til tomorrow. Today he and his crew was to fix the teleporter. He started conuing his men to look if everyone was in their beds.
Elisha, Thomas, Eric, Tyrael and...where is Bruce?!
He woke the team up and asked them top hurry as much as they could and go to the teleporter section ASAP.
As he ran down their alone, with his men in the ECS, he met Dr. Ilya who stopped him.

"I know what you are going to do, please don't" Ilya said

Ryan just gave him a strange look and ran off towards the teleporter. He feared Bruce went earlier and maybe he wasn't that trained as the Captan had said.
Another man got in his way and started to talk to him.

"You must not break them, you can only follow them. If you don't you will end up dead....do you really want that Mr Miller?" The strange man said

Ryan had never met this man before, how could he know his name?
he ran futher down in the ship and reached the teleporters central. In there, he saw Bruce with his computer conencted to the main teleporters computer central (MTCC). He quickly turned around to Ryan.

"No, wait....i have to fix this. Otherwise they will note take me back...you see?" Said Bruce

"Take you where!?" Ryan said

"Home....to the green hills and the birds. The purple and red skies in the rising sun. Can you imagine, ryan?"

He didn't understand. He had never told anyone about those dreams he had with the green hills and the purple skies. The rest of his team came rushing into the conversation.

"What is going on here? Ryan? Bruce?" Elisha said

No word were spoken. Totaly silent. Suddenly, the room got all dark. The monitors showed an explosion in the teleporter. A strange sound came creeping trough the whole ship. What happened?
Soon they saw how Dr Ilya among others simply fell to the floor.
They looked back onto the monitors and saw that there was no explosion, it was the teleporter in use. But by who? Several strange, dark,gestures and shadows showed up on the monitors around the teleporter. An alarming radio message came into their Personal Transmitters.

"This is Admiral Hayzen. We have been invaded by an uknown force. All marines and security personell abck to Marine HQ. All other personell try to get to the Health and Sickbay's section! may god be with you.

Ryan fast understand that without the main power they wouldn't be able to call for help in case of a major invasion. So he told the team that they would have to get up to the Main Power Sector of the ship. It was a far way to go, but it was all they could do to help themselfs and the hundreds of other humans aboard the ship...
