Story:Star Trek: The New Generation/Nightmare in Space/Prologue

(Federation Space, Zeta Retculli System)

The Civilan Science Vessel Auriga is conducting studies on the dangerous Xenomorph species.

(Science Lab One)

In the Science Lab a group of Xenomorphs are in the force field just standing there as their being studied by the scientist when Ellen and Amanda walk into the room.

Are you sure you should be studying these creatures they took out my crew and my friends as well as an entire Starfleet Marine squadron and a Colony, Commander Ripley says as she looks at Doctor Roberts.

Doctor Roberts looks at her and her daughter Amanda.

You two shouldn't worry they're behind a level 15 Force field and they're not gonna get out so I suggest that you sit back and let us doctors do our job which is to learn about these things, Doctor Roberts says as he shews Amanda and Ellen out of the Lab.

As the Doctors are working on them there's a huge power surge that cripples the force field and the Xenomorphs run out killing everyone in the lab or capturing them for harvesting as a Marine squad runs in and fires their Phaser rifles at the oncoming Xenomorphs but are killed easily, as Ellen and Amanda close the forward compartment and lock it off with a level 17 force field.

Mayday, Mayday this is the science vessel Auriga we've been overrun by Xenomorphs we're request that no Federation or Klingon crew board this ship, I repeat no one will board the ship just destroy it at all costs, Ellen says as she sends the distress call and gets ready to defend herself along with her daughter against the Xenomorph onslaught.
