Act 1 - Scene 1

Act 1 - Scene 1

So it begins

The first scene opens with a fully staffed bridge aboard a Federation Starship. Amongst the senior staff, multiple redshirts are in the background, not moving. The dark blue viewscreen paints an almost hypnotic pattern upon the entire bridge, the crew is bathed in a eerie blue that seems to emulate the tension in the room. As the Starship floats about Planet Trihs, the senior staff begin a rescue mission.

Senior Medical Officer - “Captain, the entire base went of the grid at 0900 hours.”

Captain - “I see...”

The captain looks at the screen thoughtfully, his dark brown eyes full of doubt.

Senior Security Chief - “Captain, I recommend sending down an away team to investigate.”

Captain - “Yes, that seems wise. This mission is incredibly dangerous though... Hm... Generic Redshirts 1-17, get to the transporter bay, this is your moment to shine!”

Suddenly, the Redshirts on the bridge move as one, saluting the captain. Each redshirt is unremarkable as the last.

Generic Redshirts 1- 17 - “Aye captain!”

Senior Medical Officer - “Captain, why did we have 17 Redshirts on the bridge?”

Captain - “Well, you know how we're always attacked and people usually end up flying around the bridge when a torpedo hits and such? Obviously we can't lose any of our senior staff, so we put like 20 redshirts on the bridge at a time to... cushion the explosions.”

Senior Medical Officer - “I see, very wise of you captain.”

Captain - “I thought so too.”
