The bio-ship is retreating. Our maneuvers were entirely defensive. The pilot may have understood this and acted accordingly.

Commander, our presence has been detected by the Borg. An incoming Cube has locked targets on our ship.

Dialogue
The Cube has sustained heavy damage in the conflict with Species 8472. If we target those critical hull breaches, we may be able to destroy the Cube.

Dialogue
Commander, something is wrong. Sensors have detected residual warp trails, and Voyager is nowhere to be found. They may have been pursued by hostile forces.

Dialogue
The identity of their pursuers remains to be determined. However, be they Borg or Hirogen, Voyager may be in danger. We must intervene.

Dialogue
Taking calculations extrapolated from the detected warp trail, then cross referencing these results with known star charts, Voyager seems to be heading in the direction of Karuna.

Commander, sensors have detected several Borg units engaged in combat with an unknown entity. I am unable to scan the enemy combatants. Their vessels are impervious to our scanners.

Readings suggest that the Borg appear to be manipulating a quantum singularity in order to create some type of interdimensional rift.

Dialogue
The unknown combatants are emerging from this rift. Wherever the rift leads, they must be defending it. The Borg may be the aggressors in this conflict.

Just in the nick of time, Independent. You seem to have a knack for showing up at the last minute.

Dialogue
We were attempting to intercept the Captain’s shuttle when our systems suddenly started going haywire. Next thing we knew, we were caught in the middle of all of this.

Dialogue
Commander Chakotay, we understand that the Borg are conducting an assault on an unidentified enemy combatant. Our scanners are unable to penetrate their hulls.

Chakotay
Dialogue
This isn’t our first time encountering these beings. While we don’t have a formal identification for them, we’ve come to know them through their designation assigned by the Borg – Species 8472.

Chakotay
Dialogue
This is all too familiar. This isn’t the first time that the Borg have attempted to force their way into fluidic space. Only it didn’t go so well for them last time.

Dialogue
We are unfamiliar with the concept of “fluidic space”.

Character
Chakotay
Dialogue
I’m afraid an explanation is going to have to wait, Independent. Right now, I’d be more concerned with the fact that we’re caught up in this skirmish. We need to distance ourselves from this at once.
Objective ID

Dialogue
That may be difficult, Commander. One of the unidentified vessels has engaged an intercept course with our ship.

Character
Chakotay
Dialogue
Dammit, that’s an 8472 bio-ship. It’s an organic-based vessel, Commander; It’s composed entirely of organic material similar to Species 8472 themselves.

Character
Chakotay
Dialogue
They’re highly resistant to conventional weaponry. If we don’t completely destroy that ship, it will only regenerate. We need to think defensively.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Chakotay
Dialogue
Species 8472 are defending their home. They must think that we’re aligned with the Borg invaders. Destroying a bio-ship will only reinforce that suspicion.
Objective ID

Phase

Character
Chakotay
Dialogue
Defend yourself, Independent, but don’t destroy that bio-ship. We’re going to clear a path through the Borg lines and find a way out of here.

It’s good to see you made it out in one piece, Independent. That very nearly wasn’t the case for Voyager.

Lieutenant Torres, status report. I want to know when we can get back to our search for Captain Janeway.

Dialogue
It’s… not good news, Commander. The warp core’s magnetic constrictors are out of alignment. It must have happened during our encounter with the Borg.

Torres
Dialogue
The misalignment caused a plasma overload in the warp core. We were able to vent this through the ship’s nacelles, but–

The warp coils have been damaged as a result.

Torres
Dialogue
Right… Same as last time. Unless we can find somewhere to dock and have those warp coils repaired, then Voyager is going to be limited to impulse engines only.

Independent, Voyager can’t stick around here any longer. We’ve broken the Borg lines, but we need to move now if we’re going to get out of here alive.

Chakotay
Dialogue
Whatever is going on between Species 8472 and the Borg, we’re in no fit state to intervene. We’re plotting a course back to the Zahl system. Meet us there.

Commander, fleet repairs and modifications to the holoemitters have been completed. We should be adequately prepared for our return journey to the Delta Quadrant.

We parted ways in the Elor system, a known Hirogen hunting ground. Commander Chakotay requested that we rejoin them in Zahl instead.

Dialogue
In addition to the dangers presented by the Hirogen, there is now a distinct possibility that Voyager is being pursued by Borg forces. We must return to them at once.
