	Two hours after intercepting the mysterious distress call, the Black Hawk arrives at Nebula G87-4M to find the USS '''Tiburon''' adrift, its impulse engines powered but inactive, with no warp signature, deflector activity, or response to hails despite ten lifesigns still being detected aboard. Commander Madelina Barnes confirms all ship systems are ready before ordering the vessel out of warp and briefing Captain Geisler as he arrives on the bridge to assess the situation. Sensor scans reveal no obvious external damage and no telemetry from the '''Tiburon''', deepening the mystery surrounding the vessel’s condition. After reviewing the evidence, Captain Geisler entrusts Barnes with handling the rescue operation, prompting her to assemble a search-and-rescue team led by Commander di Pasquale with Lieutenant Frex joining the away mission. As the senior officers depart the bridge for the transporter room, Geisler orders heightened sensor sweeps of the surrounding nebula, convinced that something about the situation is deeply wrong.		Two hours after intercepting the mysterious distress call, the Black Hawk arrives at Nebula G87-4M to find the USS '''Tiburon''' adrift, its impulse engines powered but inactive, with no warp signature, deflector activity, or response to hails despite ten lifesigns still being detected aboard. Commander Madelina Barnes confirms all ship systems are ready before ordering the vessel out of warp and briefing Captain Geisler as he arrives on the bridge to assess the situation. Sensor scans reveal no obvious external damage and no telemetry from the '''Tiburon''', deepening the mystery surrounding the vessel’s condition. After reviewing the evidence, Captain Geisler entrusts Barnes with handling the rescue operation, prompting her to assemble a search-and-rescue team led by Commander di Pasquale with Lieutenant Frex joining the away mission. As the senior officers depart the bridge for the transporter room, Geisler orders heightened sensor sweeps of the surrounding nebula, convinced that something about the situation is deeply wrong.

			Commander Barnes assembled the away team in Transporter Room Two, where the discovery that only ten of the '''Tiburon''''s expected eighty-nine crew members were still alive weighed heavily on everyone. After equipping themselves and dividing into three teams under Commander di Pasquale's direction, the officers transported aboard the Tiburon, with Barnes and Camila heading for the bridge, Frex leading a team to Engineering, and Shay Mitchell accompanying Ensign Larado to investigate Security. As Shay and Larado searched the overheated ship, they discovered abandoned uniforms with attached combadges but no bodies, suggesting the missing crew had somehow vanished from their clothing. Their investigation of Security uncovered evidence that the entire crew had been studying the mysterious nebula, along with bizarre clues, including replicated giant kelp, damp sand, and seashells, that pointed toward an aquatic environment, leading them to the hydroponics bay. There they found several frightened, unclothed survivors, evacuated the injured back to the '''Black Hawk''', and subdued a feral, transformed crewman that attacked Shay before transporting him to the brig, leaving the team with more questions than answers about the strange fate of the '''Tiburon''''s crew.

			Lieutenant Frex led his engineering team through the eerily silent corridors of the '''Tiburon''', where they rescued two surviving crew members trapped near a turbolift and transported them safely back to the '''Black Hawk''' before continuing to Main Engineering. Once there, Frex restored portions of the ship's main power and began working to bypass critical system lockouts, though someone (or something) appeared to be actively blocking access to key engineering and security functions while emergency bulkheads began sealing sections of the ship. Their investigation took a deadly turn when an unknown large, green, scaled creature ambushed the team, seriously wounding Ensign Becks before dragging him away into the corridors. Becks was successfully emergency transported to Sickbay, while Frex alerted the rest of the away team that Engineering had come under attack.

			Commander di Pasquale and Commander Barnes climbed through freezing Jeffries tubes after the turbolifts failed, discovering the bridge locked in subzero temperatures with three dead officers, frozen blood, and claw marks indicating a brutal animal attack. While Camila investigated, the engineering team led by Lieutenant Frex rescued two surviving crewmembers before restoring partial power, only to be ambushed by a fast, reptilian creature that severely wounded Becks and forced the team to retreat after reporting the attack. Back on the bridge, Camila and Maddy checked in with the other away teams, learning that Shay had uncovered increasingly bizarre evidence in Security while Frex confirmed an unknown creature was loose in Engineering. The officers then forced open the captain's ready room and discovered a massive bipedal white tiger—still wearing the captain's torn uniform and pips—feeding on a dead officer, convincing them the creature had once been Captain Greer himself. After stunning the transformed captain and ordering him transported directly to the '''Black Hawk''''s brig, Camila and Maddy ordered all away teams to abandon the '''Tiburon''' and return to the '''Black Hawk''', ending the increasingly dangerous search-and-rescue mission before more lives were lost.
