Episode 1

"The Search - Part I"

Captain's Log Stardate 58153.7

Today marks the first day of my taking command of the USS Endeavour. Starfleet is about to brief the crew on our new mission, and I look forward to my new life with trepidation and excitement.

Admiral Dekota briefs the Endeavour senior staff on the mission, the investigation of the disappearance of the U.S.S Savoy. The ship was lost several years ago, briefly before Dominion hostilities began. Salvaged sections of the Savoy were traded to a Ferengi named Garth and acquired by Starfleet. Some of the sections included that of its warp nacelle. Samples were beamed onboard to investigate.
Endeavour is charged with finding the Savoy and if not too late, to recover its crew. Several attempts were made by Starfleet to recover the crew, however due to ever increasing Dominion hostilities, it was deemed too dangerous to risk further lives and the Savoy was declared officially lost. During the resulting peace talks of the Federation Alliance's victory over the Dominion, the Dominion admitted destroying several ships including Federation starships, however the Savoy was not declared on any list.
The Endeavour is one of the first vessels to resume exploring the Gamma Quadrant before hostilities broke out and as such has been chosen to search for the missing vessel.

The Savoy is captained by Captain Harris, a classmate of Captain Hathaway. Known as mostly a reclusive individual, he was also well known for his high intelligence and drive to succeed.

The analysis of the sections recovered:

• Science Team ran a metallurgical analysis on the ship fragments.
• Calcium Deposits and Krynodynocium metals were found.
• Tetryon & Chronoton particles were also found amongst the scans, suggesting some sort of temporal incident.

Alongside the sections of the hull recovered, we have discovered that Garth is known to trade with Karemma, so after a short detour to perform the ship's first crew manned weapons test at Antares testing grounds, we have just entered the wormhole en-route to Karemma.

Episode 2

"The Search - Part II"

The crew of the Endeavour manage to track the elusive Ferengi, Mr Garth. Completely unwilling at first to disclose any information, the First Officer along with the Chief of Security manage to gain the location of the fragments he traded to Stafleet.
Garth disclosed something else he found however, something he had held onto and not told Starfleet about. The crew were about to discover the details when Endeavour was attacked by an unknown vessel. After a fire fight, Endeavour managed to subdue the enemy. However transporters and scanners were unable to penetrate the hull, and hails had gone unanswered. An away team, lead by Commander Bates was sent aboard a shuttle to investigate the ship and why it had attacked us.
Moments after stepping aboard the ship, the comm line goes down. Repeated calls go unanswered, and an alarm rings on the bridge. Five ships, with identical markings are on an intercept course, and will be within range within minutes...

[John Hathaway]

Episode 3

"The Search - Part III"

After retreating from the fire-fight and recovering the away team in the nick of time, the Endeavour heads into a plasma stream to hide and make repairs.

Garth revealed more information via interrogation, including the planet where the aliens originate, but nothing further.

Endeavour launched a shuttle with a high warp signature to distract the pursuing vessels, and shortly after left the stream on course for the planet, intent on finding the answers to solve the mystery of the Savoy.

Endeavour was equipped with powerful external holoemitters, which were used to disguise the ship as Garth's Ferengi merchant vessel.
Approaching the planet, Endeavour was able to discover a small area on the planet's surface which was shielded from scans. Discovering our intensive scans of the area, Endeavour was forced out of orbit and on its way, but not before the Captain, CoS, CSO and security detachment managed to beam down to investigate...

Episode 4

"The Search - Part IV"

The away team attempts to blend in with the local population in order to avoid being detected. Securing transportation they head off in search of a shielded region of the planet.

The away team encounters a series of ancient ruins and eventually finds a secret scientific research facility. The team infiltrates the facility but is eventually detected and a firefight ensures in which one Security officer is killed and the CSO injured. Capturing the base leaders the away team discovers that the crew of the Savoy have been taken prisoner and held at the facility whilst being subjected to illegal experimentation.

Reviving the Captain of the Savoy the away team learns that the vessel was damaged by chroniton based weapons before later being attacked by a non sanctioned group that took advantage of the already damaged ship by attacking the Savoy and capturing the crew.

The away team is then able to make contact with the local officials and reveal the crimes carried out at the facility and they are allowed to return to the Endeavour with the rescued crew of the Savoy.

Episode 5

"The Trap"

On course for Driumus Prime, the Endeavour adjusts its course to inspect an anomaly.
Endeavour becomes ensnared in the anomaly. Unable to escape, the crew discover they are not alone in their plight.

Endeavour's crew soon realise theirs engines were creating gravimetric waves, damaging the ship. With a specially modified deflector dish, they are able to compensate and push through. Unfortunately the other ship's attempts to initiate warp, force Endeavour to punch through more quickly and sustain more damage before the massive gravimetric wave from initiating warp occurs.
Too late to reach minimum safe distance, the ship sustains massive damage. Unfortunately, more than system's damage was to ensue.
One fatality reported... Lewis Holden.

[Mikester92]

Episode 11

"Mirror Image - Part II"

After discovering that there was no rebel fleet in Romulus, the captain begins an investigation as to who could actually betray her. She asks Suder to lead this investigation, and seductively asks the doctor to find out whether or not Suder is on her side.

Surely enough, Dr. Hill decided to frame Suder and Bates so he could gain an upper hand in the chain of command. As a result the Captain suggestively, but not directly, asks the doctor to take care of them. Upon leaving her ready room, Suder then kills the doctor after receiving such orders from Commander Bates.

Upon killing the doctor, the Captain asks the bridge crew to leave the bridge so she could speak with Suder alone. She then tells Suder that she's pieced together all the clues, and accuses Suder of treason. She then asks her personal security guard to take Suder to the brig, however along the way a medical officer sedates the guard and frees Suder; starting a rebellion against the Terran Empire, which results in the Death of the captain and her supporters.

Episode 13 & 14

"Bird Flocks - Part 1 & 2"

The crew of the Starship Endeavour go about their daily business on the ship, scrubbing plasma conduits, initiating tactical scenarios and socialising in the mess hall. When the bridge picks up an unusual space faring being roaming through space however, it catches their attention and they proceed to investigate.

The creature, 50% gas, 50% energy, was generally non-corporeal in nature, as Seven of Nine later discovered much to Ms Suders' distaste. After moving the ship in closer for a more in-depth analysis, Seven of Nine altered the ship's communication pulse frequencies to match that of the pulses the creature was creating. A minor emergency ensued as the being became a little too interested in finding out what made up the inside of the Endeavour.

After the plasma vents were sealed, and Yellow Alert restored, Seven of Nine along with Doctor Jonathan Hill analyzed through visual protocol 3 that the creature was indeed creating moving images with the movement of gas particles which Dr Hill related to a flock of birds. After further investigation, including the discovery of chroniton particles and images of the Endeavour in trouble some time in the future, Seven attempts and eventually succeeds to convince the Captain to grant permission over use of a shuttlecraft. With more readings gathered, the Endeavour is ready to communicate with the use of holotechnology to transmit images to the being.

After a brief moment of amazement by the crew over the being's intelligence it slowly but steadily continues it's journey through the galaxy in search of sentient life, downloading 40 gigaquads of data into the ship's computer core in the process.

"Gateway Part 1"

Captain's Log Stardate 58983.7
