SNIP

Siobhan had been humming and not heard the initial exchange between the other two. But when a question of readings came up, her ears twitched and she looked up. “Huh? Oh, Well, we were moving to fast to get much but I managed to get a few sensor readings where the creature ‘jumped’ thru a wormhole. I’m guessing the anomaly ahead of the Genesis is a similar hole and probably one that jumps them back and forth into this section of space for laying eggs, so to speak.”

She absently reached for her tea, no longer steaming hot, and took a sip before setting it down. Styffling a yawn she went back to the data. “If we can figure out the out side of the other worm hole, we may be able to track these things down to where they usually are between breeding cycles. We could possibly even log more of the creatures and their familial or herd style behavior. I wonder if they act more like whales and dolphins, or more like bees? I mean, are they family pack oriented or merely a huge pool of… whatever they are.” She laughed and looked at the XO. “I guess we should think of what to call it, huh? I mean, if we are the first to log it, it’s our privilege.” She smiled and looked back down once more.

Magnus laughed at her question “You’re very right, I’m afraid that my previous comment suggesting it might be the Big Bird of the Galaxy may have been incorrect” He joked “Wormhole aliens is far too vague and already taken” He leaned back, throw another piece of apple in his mouth and considered “Ideas Ben?” He asked the Tactical officer.”

XO

“What do you think about a calling it a rabbit hole creature?”

Park

Magnus turned to Park and gave him a perplexed expression “Are there creatures that live in rabbit holes besides… well rabbits?” Suddenly the thought of a creature hatching like a cuckoo but inside a rabbit hole than leaving once grown entered his mind. It was an uncomfortable thought.

XO

“The way I look at it is the creature is entering into what I presume to be dark opening and the further it goes the darker the creature becomes. I read it in a book somewhere.”

Park

The runabout was about 90 minutes from the previous jump position and Park noticed that they were just several minutes from the next place where the creature made its jump.

GM

“Commander it looks like we’re close to the rabbit hole where the creature had disappeared into.”

Park

Magnus stood up and walked to the nose of the Runabout “Alright, let’s get some scans as we pass, relay everything to Genesis” He cut another piece of his apple “Who knows, perhaps we might learn something more about this interesting creature.” He started stretching a little “It’s been a while since I’ve been on a runabout for a mission like this, It’s nice to get off your ship and float around the nothingness”

XO

As they passed, the sensors detected two unknown particles, and tachyons and tetryons. The patterns showed that the ‘hole’ was somewhere between a subspace rift and a subspace corridor. From the data obtained, it was possible to begin thinking about an engine that could make use of subspace to go even faster than warp.

GM

Siobhan laughed at the rabbit idea. “I don’t know what book you refer to, but the analogy is more or less correct. But I think we can come up with something better.” Her mind started to go over possible scientific and layman terms to describe it.

When Park mentioned the hole, she tapped her PaDD and made note of the location and time so she could look over the information later. Her stylus danced over her PaDD as she started to mess with derivatives of their names.

Siobennus Polyphaga

“How about Siobenus Polyphaga? Siobhan, Ben, and Magnus… you were here and deserve some credit.” She wondered if it was too crazy a proposition. “A Acanthamoeba polyphaga is an ameoba. This thing was akin to that in my mind. Perhaps it’s a good name?” She winked at Park. “We’ll call it Space Rabbit between us if you like.” She laughed lightly and went back to making more name ideas in case they chose to laugh at the one she came up with.

It was uneventful in the shuttle as they were travelling rather slowly. The only bits of excitement was the news and video feed from the Genesis which showed how the creature managed to evade the tendrils from the tear and enter into it. Even the closing of the tear, which took seven minutes, seemed better than the monotony of travelling at warp towards the Genesis.

GM

Magnus smiled “Sounds like a stellar name lieutenant” After a few minutes he seemed to fall in his chair “I’ve seen a lot in my time with the fleet but I then that knocks all of my experience out of the park. And mind you I organized a prison break from a Dominion prison. Completely worth it” He had a face of utter bemusement and awe. Even if he wasn’t a true scientist he did marvel at the wonders the galaxy threw at him.
