*Riker*

"Doctor, let's get started. I will inform the crew that a pathogen has been detected on the ship, and that all crewmembers must receive a complete physical. Start with the senior staff. Inform me when they have been cleared."

*Exits the ready room, and enters the bridge"

"Mr. Worf, put me on the intercom."

"All hands, A pathogen has been detected aboard the Enterprise. While it has not been determined as to whether it will pose a threat to the crew, all crewmembers are required to undergo a complete physical. You will be contacted by Dr. Crusher with your assigned examination times. Riker Out"

Still in Ready room.

*Beverly glanced over at Deanna as if to say `I got this one'

DELRONE

Lieutenant Delrone walks a corridor and clasps his head in pain.

"Argh!!"

Loses balance and slams into a wall. Delrone regains footing and accesses a wall control panel, deleting more files...

Deanna***

*Beverly and i walked out of the Captains Ready Room entered the turbo lift and continued to Sick Bay where I would Moniter all of Beverly's Patients*

"Bev, i sense something odd.. no in here.. but somewhere in the ship"

DELRONE

Delrone walked into Ten Forward and took a seat with his friend who asked where he'd been the past hour. "...Uhh, I can't seem to remember for some reason." Delrone took a sip of his drink, confused. "I don't get it, I can't remember anything in the past hour."

*Guinun* and Ro who are near them, hear this conversation, and both turn and give each other puzzled looks

DELRONE

"Maybe you'd better get checked out in Sickbay," his friend suggested.

"Good idea. This could be related to that pathagen that was detected." Delrone gets up and heads for the doors, but stops at where Guinan is. "Hey, Guinan, can I talk to you for a second out in the hall?"

*Riker*

"You have the Bridge Mr. Data. I will be in sickbay."

*Enters the turbolift and goes to sickbay to get the examination over with.*

*Guinun*
in response to Lieutenant Delrone; "of course, why don't we take a little walk?"
Drelone and guinun walk outside ten forward

DELRONE

"Thanks Guinan. You know the advice you gave me last week on Arlene? Well I told her how I felt, but lately she hasn't been returning my messages. She says I almost attacked her one night, but I have no idea what she's talki---" Just then Delrone blanks out. Guinan notices gills on the back of his neck before he grabs her shoulder and shoves her against the wall, violently.

Captain Picard recieves a message in his ready room... with a temporal signature...

*RIKER*

*Enters Sickbay and heads toward Crusher and Troi in Crusher's office"

Beverly and Deanna look up at Riker.

*Riker*

"How are the examinations going?"

Bev- "So far nothing. But Deanna sences something is wrong on this ship, and we are going to find it."

*Riker*

"Well, let's get this examination over with then you should make sure that the rest of the senior staff has been cleared, including yourself."

*Guinun*

Down in ten forward:
as Dreone was blanking out, a large group of people, including had come out of ten forward and see him and guinun, they rush over.
Ro taps com badge ''medical emergency to ten forward"
Everyone is trying to restrain Drelone, who is making violent movements. Ro goes over to Giunun, who is now unconsious on the floor

DELRONE

Delrone, who is being restrained by a crowd of people, quickly spins one of them around into another person. Space is free for his foot, which he lifts and kicks into two more people on his other side. Those two are knocked back one after the other as he then turns and jumps over Guinan, passing Ro, and makes a run for it down the next corridor.

*Guinun*

as a swarm of people jump over guinun and Ro, guinun slowly comes round
to ro, who is kneeling besides her , she says "What..happned.." (slowly sits up) "I can't ...remember (with difficulty as though in pain) last thing... I remember I was... talking to you in ten forward...
Ro begins to answer, but notices something on strange on guinuns neck...

DELRONE

The group of six Officer's chase Delrone down the hall until he hits a deadend. One Officer grabs for him, but he quickly dodges to the side and grabs the Officer's arm. He pulls the Officer in, tripping him, so that he falls into two more Officer's on Delrone's other side. Those three tumble to the floor, where Delrone leaps over them and jumpkicks another Officer away. Delrone turns and punches right-cross, one Officer, and left-cross, the last Officer out. He then escapes through nearby doors, entering Sickbay. There, everyone notices him, surprised.

WHile Beverly Checks u out Will I will Have the rest of the Senior Staff called down to be checked..

Beverly and Will look up at Delrone..

DELRONE

As Troi was heading for the doors, she bumps into Delrone who places his hand on her shoulder, intrusively. "Not so fast, Councillor..."

(be-beep)
Picard to Counsellor Troi. Please report to my ready room.
(be-beep)

The Captain sips his tea while going over a report, waiting for Troi to arrive.

DELRONE

In Sickbay, Delrone grabbed Troi and spun her around. He placed his fingers on her neck, insterting a viral agent. "Uh!" Troi cried.

Riker and Beverly were shocked.

Beverly looks at Riker and then pushes a few buttons.. Seconds later a silent message is flashed across all the screens 'Get out!' Every one slowly and silently retreats from sickbay threw the other door.. Riker and Crusher are just out the door..

Bev- "Well we found him. Now what do we do, he has Deanna we won't be able to find out who else he might of infected."

omni'X thank you for getting it going again..

(ba-bleep)
Picard to Dr. Crusher. Please report to my ready room, immediatly.
(ba-bleep)

Beverly looks at Will, "On my way. Will can you uh handle this?"

*Riker*

*Taps combadge*

"Riker to Security. Send a team to sickbay immediately."

*Beverly nods and starts walking down the corridor she stops and looks back at Riker then continues on..

Beverly arives at Picards ready room and pushes the chime..*

Picard, "Come."

*Beverly walks threw the door.*

The Captain spins his monitor toward Beverly, displaying the image of a young female commander.

Captain Picard, "Beverly, do you know Commander Janeway?"

Bev- "Yes, why did somethng else happen?"

Picard, "I've been receiving a number of chronoton com signals... from an Admiral Janeway, claiming to be from 10 years into the future. She's the one who's imformed me about the return of these parasitic aliens."

Bev- "Maybe she can help us, in the mean time Lt. Delrone is the carrier and he just got to Deanna. Who knows who else he could of got to."

*Beverly walked around his desk and sat on the edge.*

Bev- "Don't ware yourself out." Beverly smiled down at him.

What?? You knew I was going to add something like that..

Picard's desktop monitor chirps and an older Janeway appears.

Admiral Janeway, "Captain, I have urgent news!"

Captain Picard, "Yes, Admiral?"

Admiral Janeway, "Starfleet Command has been completely overrun by the aliens!" *phaser fire sounds* "Dang, we have a security breach!" *channel begins to break up* "Trust no one captain, there's only one way to prevent this disaster, you have to... my go..." *transmission ends*

Captain Picard just stares at the monitor with a cold, blank expression.

Beverly looks at Picard with her mouth hanging open..

Bev- "What are we going to do?"

Picard looks up at Beverly, "Find Riker in person, scan him to make sure he's not infected, then alert him of the situation. Tell him to take us to red alert. I have other business to attend."

Picard stands up, tugging his uniform downward.

"Keep me posted."

Beverly nods, smiles sweetly, stands and heads for the door..

Picard, "Beverly..."

The captain gives her a concerned expression.

"Be careful."

Bev- "You too."

*Bev leaves*

DELRONE

Meanwhile, Security Guards quietly sneak into Sickbay. Troi is leaning against a biobed, exhausted and in pain, and Delrone is at a wall control panel sending out a Subspace Transmission and trying to deal with his own infectionious pain. "Argh! --Must resist--"

He quickly dodges back as a phaser blast passes over his chest and cracks the wall. He attacks the other Security Guards.

*Riker*

*While Delrone is distracted by the security officers, retrives a phaser from it's storage and fires hitting Delrone who falls to the floor.*

"Get him in a restraint field before he wakes up."

*Taps comm badge*

"Riker to Crusher. Medical emergency in sickbay"

"I'm on my way."

DELRONE

Delrone lied unconscious on the floor as a forcefield went around him. His subspace transmission was sent out to somewhere.

*Riker*

*Taps Combadge*

"Riker to Captain Picard, you might want to come to sickbay, we have a problem."

The Captain exits his ready room.

"Mr. Data, you have the bridge."

Picard enters the turbo lift next to his ready room.

"Deck 8, Sickbay."

DELRONE

"Ugghh... help..."
