Briefing - The U.S.S. Nighthawk have been dispatched to the Keh'lin Nebula to locate the U.S.S. Praxis, a Nebula Class vessel which was reported missing two days earlier. The crew has been successful in locating the Praxis, and an away team has been dispatched.

The away team, consisting of the Executive Officer, Chief Science Officer, Chief Tactical Officer, a Medical Assistant and three security guards beamed aboard, and were systematically separated - only three remain.

Attempting to battle the storm of gravimetric sheers and theta radiation, the Nighthawk crew has lost contact with both the Praxis and the Aventura, only to discover that their precious away team has been surrounded by alien life forms. No communication can get through - they are on their own. Survival of the fittest begins from this point on...
