Yeager Colony Episode 1: "A new beginning"
A team was sent over to the SS Rook, to not only try to save the computer core of that ship, but also to set a plan in motion to get the Odyssey out of the rift they were in: if the Rook would start up its warpengines and create a warpfield in the configuration that only the Rook could create, the rift would expand again. But prior to that, the rift would lose coherence, and the Odyssey *might* just get through by destroying the Rook before the rift could expand.
Unfortunately, the Rook was in very bad shape. The team which was sent over there had to do whatever they could to repair as much as was needed for the warpengines to engage. On top of that, they needed to move the Rook, so that the explosion -caused when the Odyssey's photon torpedoes would impact with the vessel- would have the maximum effect.
Back on the Odyssey, things didn't really go according to plan. In the middle of this crisis, one of the Rook's pilots escaped: she was confused and felt threatened. Nobody found her yet, but as always, being trouble, she will appear whenever she'll be least needed.
On Yeager Colony, everyone has been preparing for the climate changes that might or might not occur as a result of the rift. With a rather powerful storm heading towards the crashed ship of Captain M'Tress, the team which had gone there, needed to speed up repairs if they wanted to survive...
