Ever been chased in your dreams?

Mission: Ill Tidings
Location: Quarters - Starbase 332
Timeline: midnight

[ON]

Humans often experience common events during their sleep dreams. Being chased is one of them. Corrine tossed and turned in heavy perspiration near the midnight hour. She didn't see much in her dream, but heard voices, including her own.

"Wake up, Harbor Control. You're not reporting traffic in my zone."

=/Your zone is clear, Steiner.\=

"Not it's not! I've got contacts!" A shrill radio squeal sounded. Corrie whispered, "They're jamming me!"

The starbase's powerful transmitters punched a gravelly voice through the buzzing static, =/Harbor to Steiner! If you can hear me, make a run for the planet! We're vectoring patrol your way! Repeat, run for the planet!\=

Corrine woke up with a gasp. Breathing hard, she sat motionless for a few moments. Before she forgot, she replayed every detail back in her mind. Eventually calming, she shook her head, "Ferengi pests? Sojourners wanting base data? Fleet black ops?" She realized that with the multitude of flights she made during her daily duties, it wouldn't be practical to ask for a fighter plane to baby sit her. The frightening part of this was, she didn't see or hear any detail which hinted at when this orbital blanket party was scheduled. "What can I do?... What can I do?"

She then smacked at a manual activation by her bed, "Computer!"

==ONLINE==

"Query. What is the fastest, most high performance shuttlecraft available to this starbase?"
