Flowered Journey:
The Nirvana arrives at yet another planet tampered with by the Harvest
fleet, as its inhabitants are unable to survive the air and have all
caught a disease that is fatal, with no cure. On a mission of mercy,
Duero and the rest of the crew stop at the planet in order to ease
people's suffering and help them, and Bart befriends a little girl
named Shirley, also bedridden with the disease. However, yet another
enemy attack threatens the crew's only attempt to create a clean
environment for the inhabitant's babies to be born in, and a reluctant
yet determined Bart must leave Shirley to fight for her life while he
fights to defend the planet from attack.
Everything:
The Nirvana comes upon another Mission, though the inhabitants are
decidedly hostile and use a law of "take what you want by
force" in order to survive. Hand to hand combat is the only way to
prove the Nirvana crew's strength, and BC, as the highest ranking
officer on the away team, chooses to fight in order to prove the
Nirvana's good will. The enemy, however, isn't about to stop for a
simple fight, and the Mission becomes infested by Harvest fleet units.
With energy weapons useless against these new enemies, Barnette's
antique gun selection using old fashioned "bullets" may be
the only thing to keep the Mission from being harvested, although an
old acquaintance may make an appearance as well...
