With the team returned to the Boudicca, the parameters of the original mission shifted to a rescue and recovery operation. In this case, the crew not only had to provide aid to any survivors remaining on the planet, but also to locate their own missing away team.

Before the entire plan could be put together, however, a sudden, unexpected power failure began to appear in various systems throughout the Boudicca. The first couple of occurrences were minor problems, but as time progressed the severity of the situation and occurrences began to worsen. 

The first serious failure took place in the shuttle bay of the Boudicca. unexpectedly the outer doors of the shuttle bay cycled open and the emergency forcefield failed. In this single instance, several crew members from the engineering and science department were sucked out into the cold expanse of space. Although the system rebooted quickly, the harm had been done and no one who had been in that compartment survived the decompression and freezing cold.  

During this time, The beast managed to make some sort of Empathic contact with [[Rank|Yeoman]] [[Meggan Puceanu]]. The contact caused the young woman to slip into her normal nearly incomprehensible native slang, and to also begin to suffer impressions and visions associated with the Earth book, [[Alice's Adventures in Wonderland]].
