Frost Storm became conscious. She could not move or speak. She was lying supine on a cold, hard surface. She was nude. Around her was darkness save for three large transperent boards close to where she was.

Then, two men with purple skin and glowing eyes came into view. One was clean shaven with a bright green Mohawk style hair cut. The other had a dark blue full beard and hair.

The screens came to life with several images. Most looked like they were internal images that Frost Storm couldn't make out. She did see an overhead shot of her naked body.

The bearded one spoke. "This is a more rare specimen, an Andorian Shen. This one is a warrior." He spoke as he looked over a PADD hovering near is face. "She has survived energy weapon shots and several burns." He motioned to her shoulder. "She was even bitten by a large carnivorous creature."

"Oh, this is interesting, she suffered from a temporal distortion." He told his companion.

"She will make a fine specimen to work with Master Nuhlwrath." the other man stated.

"I would like to but I think she will be missed." Nuhlwrath replied. "We will harvest gametes from her and from two of the human males. We will keep one of humans for further research."

"But why not keep her?" the other man asked. "This one is a fine specimen from her race. Are you not capable of cloning her?"

"Fool! Do not insult my talents!" Nuhlwrath snapped at the man. "Of course I can clone her. The issue is all of her rare injuries. They would take time to recreate in a clone." Nuhlwrath told him. "No, I have enough of her gametes for my needs."

Frost Storm tried to cry out but all that came out was a pathetic wheezing.

Nuhlwrath looked down at her and smiled. "Ah yes, always the race of warriors." He told her. "I'm sorry my brave little lass, no one can hear you."

Suddenly a second figure walked slowly over to Froststorm, upon closer inspection it was Rachael Yamaguchi, she was wearing a tank top and a pair of panties, very little for the environment she was in. "Ryi." she said gently. "They can't see me... I exist only in your mind... the crew of the Roanoke are looking for you... but you have to hang on... I will be here with you.."

Frost Storm tried to communicate with Rachael but found that she couldn't."

"Don't talk so loud... they'll think your insane.." Rachael smiled as she stood next to the table that Froststorm was lying on. "Unfortunately I can't free you.... I'm not actually here..." as she gently cupped the Andorian's face.

Frost Storm tried to react but couldn't.

Nuhlwrath spoke up again. "Stop resisting. This is just a brief examination." The alien smiled at Frost Storm. "Soon enough you will be back with your own kind. I still need you alive as bait."

"Ignore him... he's an asshole." Rachael smiled. "Ugly fucker... isn't he?" she smiled down at the Andorian. "We will get you out of this Ryi.... one way or another."
