The Hidden Memory
Log File 10120
While maintaining our geo-synchronous orbit opposite the PK Gammak Base (see Log File #10119), Moya went into full labor rendering all her propulsion systems -- including starburst -- effectively inoperative. Even if the Leviathan had been able to move, Crichton was still Scorpius' prisoner in the base and no one in our crew (except perhaps Dominar Rygel) was prepared to leave him at the mercy of that hybrid Sebacean's memory-stealing Aurora Chair.
A weakened Aeryn, not fully recovered from her paraphoral nerve graft, insisted on leading D'Argo and Zhaan in a rescue mission. Officer Sun infiltrated the underground compound while the others fortified the surface, preparing for their rapid escape.
The presence of Captain Crais on Gammack Base was not something any of us had anticipated. Evidently, the PK Captain was summoned when Scorpius' torturous mental probing of Crichton revealed Crais' vendetta against the Human. With both Scorpius and Crais watching him, odds of rescuing Crichton seemed especially low.
But with the PK Tech Gilina's ingenious manipulations of the Aurora Chair, Scorpius came to suspect Captain Crais himself of harboring hidden memories and proceeded to turn his mental probes on the PK Captain. While Crais and Scorpius preoccupied one another, Aeryn managed to free John and his cellmate Stark from captivity.
As, Gilina continued to sabotage the base's systems, Moya was having severe problems with her own birthing systems. The child had formed covered with weapons; a feature no Leviathan had ever possessed. These armaments prevented the baby from exiting the birthing canal normally. Unless Chiana could guide it clear, the confused baby would begin blasting its way out.
When Scorpius realized that he'd been tricked, he sealed the base and began a systematic search for Crichton. Trapped in the compound, the escapees needed to find a way to the surface before the legions of PK guards found them. But even if they somehow made it out, there was no guarantee that Moya would be there upon their return. For despite Chiana's best efforts, our newborn Leviathan was still trapped in the birthing canal, and now fully primed and ready to open fire on its own terrified mother.
