Author Info :None Description :Holodeck Adventure Series Volume #1 - DireStraits Enter HoloDeck to escape deadly energy scan on ship. Locate Holodeck exit and return to ship. Secure ship. Plot History Aboard a starship, you and your maintenance crew of 25 remained to repair some of the systems, while all of the other crew members beamed down to the planet of Zyraph to enjoy its bountiless servings from its restaurants, brothels, merchants, and recreational forums. Suddenly, a searing electrical force rips through the ship. All communications and most other systems are down. Using the remaining scanners that are operational you detect the force. You discover that it was caused by fluctuations of the time space continuium activated by the garbage jettisoned from the starship a few weeks prior. You also learn that another much larger electrical force will hit the ship in 15 minutes. This force has the power to destroy the ship and you unless you act quickly. You and your crew work hard to bring the shields back on line. However, the modulation required for the shields to save the ship when mixed with the electrical force will create a bioflux throughout the ship killing all living matter. Your only chance is to operate the untested and unprogrammed holodeck by teleporting your crew through the holodeck as pure energy. Then after the electrical force passes the ship, you will exit the holodeck, recall your crew, complete the repairs, contact your superiors, and have a beer.
