Captain Chris Pike is in front of me in a large, metallic room, illuminated softly from above. An accessway is to my left. I sense that an alarm may be going off somewhere though I don't hear anything. I do feel the room shaking and I suspect the ship is in damger.

Suddenly the thick deckplate below my feet becomes translucent and glows with a bright white light. I can't even imagine how much energy it would take to cause that to happen but I suspect it's incredible. It pulses slightly and a whooshing sound fills the room, much like when Jodi Foster is about to take her voyage in the machine.

The energy waves pass through both of us and I can see Pike is visibly affected. He skaes a bit and I realize he is becoming ultradense, impermeable and strong. I am likewise affected but I can't seem to move from the spot I'm in. Nothing I cna do will prevent what's happening.

The knowledge that Pike is changed fills me though I can't yet see any reason why it should. I realize he is angry, about to commit horrible crimes, and it will be up to me to ultimately defeat him, though it may come at the cost of my own life.

And that's all I recall right now.
