Mission: The Race for the Lost Treasure
Location: Starbase Typhon

Thirteen of Twenty was wandering the promenade. This, in itself, was an odd concept. She hadn't really seen the need for unnecessary exercise, nor the invitation to a social event, that a shopping complex apparently implied.

However, she came across two things, that were somewhat distressing, causing a glitch in reasoning protocols, which she would have to repair, before she could think straight again.

Firstly, She bumped into Commander York, who had apparently been promoted to Captain, and Secondly, Captain York did not recognize her, in the slightest detail.

"Ma'am, I'm Ensign Thirteen, Assistant Chief Helm Officer?" Thirteen asked. "Are you well? Do you require medical attention?"

Sam was spending the afternoon wandering around the promenade before meeting Damon for dinner. She'd been to Typhon once before, but she'd barely had time to look around as that was the same time she'd been given the Calypso.

"Hello, Ensign. I'm fine, thank you. Are you assigned to the starbase?" Sam asked.

"Ma'am? Perhaps I should call Doctor Prefect." Thirteen said. "You appear to be having memory issues."

"My memory is fine, Ensign. Thank you anyway. Are you new to the Starbase?" She still hadn't answered Sam's question. Maybe the Ensign was the one who needed a doctor.

"Captain York, your memory is apparently faulty. We serve together. On the Jefferson." Thirteen said, with a quirked eyebrow. She stopped. "Biological scans complete. Quantum Signature Error detected." She said softly. "My apologies. I seem to have come across something restricted by several regulations. If you'll excuse me, I find myself with new data to attempt to process."

Sam watched her in surprise. Quantum Signature Error? There was something definitely odd bout the woman. Were her Borg implants misaligned? Sam had never even heard of the Jefferson. It must be new.

Sam watched the other woman walk away. She was talking to herself. As far as Sam knew, Borg didn't talk to themselves. Even reclaimed Borg. Maybe she was here going through treatment? It would explain a lot. With a shake of her head, she turned and continued on her way.
