"YUS" said Lena, who just randomly appeared.

So the crew prepared for departure... except for science officer Frank, as ordered by the captain.
"Good luck guys!" Frank called out as the exploratory pod disengaged and headed down to the planet

It landed on the planet, and Toz, Tug, D11, TGC, and several people in red uniforms got out.
"Who are they?" TGC asked.
"Oh, those are the redshirts." Toz explained. "Their job is to basically be dumb muscle for us, and die if necessary so we, the actual important characters, won't."
But little did they know that up on the Dragoex, where Frank was all alone, the red shorts were plotting to overthrow Frank and strand us all there...

Unfortunately, they couldn't figure out how to enter Frank's lab and quarters, so Frank had some time for now.
"So guys; what's it looking like down there?" Frank asked through his microphone; he was to input data into his lab's computer so it could process it and make sense of this unknown world.

Suddenly, five Red Shirts burst into Frank's quarters, having cut through with a xaser (combo laser/phaser/taser).
"Oh, crap!" Frank grabbed his xaser and shot, killing a redshirt, but the others pinned him down and took his xaser away. He was escorted to a broom closet while they decided what to do with him.
A red shirt whose outfit seemed somewhat more mauveish than the rest took the helm and plotted a new course out of the solar system. The mutiny was successful.
Back on the planet, Toz was examining a large land-going whale-like creature that was surprising friendly, D11 was getting attacked by killer moss, Tug was picking alien flowers, and TGC was on the other side of the ledge examining alien rocks, when the red shirts got into the exploration pod and flew off, leaving them stranded...

Frank found himself on his own on the ship; he had to take it back if he was to have any chance to make it out of here.
Grabbing a wrench, he forced his way out of the broom closet, and took down the red shirt that was guarding it.
"Let's see... there were five on the ship when there was a break-in, and I killed one, and took down this one... so there is three left.
Frank needed an advantage though. He sneaked to the engine area, where he saw only one. While the Red shirt was turned away, Frank went to hit the "emergency shutdown" button. Everything suddenly went dark as the ship came to a stop.
"Time to take back the ship from these damn traitors" Frank thought to himself.

"Oh, please. You think there's only three of us?"
Frank turned to see about fifty Red shirts, armed, with a redshirt leader, Scarlet Shirt, in front of them.
"Under Orange Shirt's lesdership, we have assembled thousands of rebels to take you down. You can't win, Frank."
Cardinal Shirt and his band of red shirts came up behind Frank. He was surrounded.

"Fire!" The leader said.
With it being so dark, the redshirts could not see Frank had ducked and wound up firing into each other.
Frank was forced to crawl out of the engine room and made his way to the ducts. He realized he was going to have to get crafty if he was to take back the ship.
In the engine room, by the time the Orange shirt had figured out what was going on, 1/3 of the people in the room were dead or wounded.
"Just great. I ask you guys to do ONE THING and you can't even do that" he grumbled.

"We're just generic soliders. We have no choice."
"Not any more. You're Rob. He's Ben. That's Leroy. She's Allie. He's Jesús. She's Sue. That's Rose and Mary at the conn. You all have names now. You're less likely to die. Much less likely."
"But sir, you don't have a name." Sue pointed out.
"I'm Orange Shirt. I have a title. I don't need a name." He replied. "Neither do my generals, Scarlet Shirt, Cardinal Shirt, Crimson Shirt, Ruby Shirt, Rose Shirt, Brick Shirt, Red Shorts, Reddish Shirt, Light Red Shirt, Dark Red Shirt, Medium Red Shirt, Very Light Red Shirt, Very Dark Red Shirt, Deep Red Shirt, Pink Shirt, Salmon Shirt, and of course, Mauve Shirt.
Suddenly, Frank burst in and began shooting, but found he couldn't hurt the bridge crew.
"No! They're named characters now! They aren't generic mooks to be mowed down! GAHH!"
They knocked him out, stuck him in an escape pod, and launched him into space.

Celebrating their take over of the ship, they were suddenly confused when the ships engines stopped, everything went dark and the artificial gravity failed.
"What, what's going on?!" Commander orange shirt said. Then the communication screen lit up with Frank's image.
"Greetings traitors. If you are watching this video, then congratulations, you're sailing on a disabled ship now. You were so eager to get rid of me, you failed to take a few things into account. While you were regrouping in the engine rooms, I had gone to the master computer terminals in my lab and programmed a virus that disabled the ship one an escape pod containing my DNA was launched. Don't bother trying to reactivate the ship, the virus has made it that if anyone other than me or one of my friends tries to reactivate the ship the reactor will overheat and explode. Also, my lab has entered a fail safe security defensive measure; if anyone who isn't me tries to open the doors, all airlocks on the ship will open. You think you're clever, trying to get rid of me, but it came at a heavy cost. Oh and one more thing- with CO2 exchange systems down, you've only got two weeks of air left. Make it last. Goodbye traitors, you earned this." And the video screen went down.
"Damn it all! Is anyone here good with computers?!" Orange shirt said
"Bennington was" one guy said.
"Excellent! Where is he?" Orange shirt asked. The red shirt pointed to a dead body.
"Well, that's a rather size able setback. Anyone have a plan B?" Orange shirt asked.

"Well, I've sent a distress signal out. Hopefully whoever gets it is friendly."
Mwanwhile, Toz, Tug, TGC, and D11 where still stranded on that planet.

The continued their searching of the planet, while just above, the escape pod, which was meant for 8, was orbiting the planet as Frank regained consciousness.
"Ugh, that is the last time I go "action movie hero dramatic fight" style; "Secretive shadow silent attack" style is more my thing" Frank thought. Then he got himself oriented.
Back on the planet, the crew were trying to make due.

Just then, Frank remembered something.
"WAIT A MINUTE!" He called out as everything froze in the story.
"We said on page two or three that there was only us half a dozen or so guys on the ship, and no one else. So how could there be red shirts to throw a mutiny?" Frank said, realizing the massive plot hole present.
"Uh oh" Orange shirt said. Suddenly, all of the "red shirt" characters began disappearing from existence, as Frank's pod reattached to the ship And Frank reappeared in his lab.
"We'll... Be... Back!!!!" Orange shirt screamed as he continued fading away.

"Funny how plotholes work" Frank said, getting a can of Squirsca soda (Not an actual soda, btw)
Meanwhile, on Arthine "I've breached the security system, we should be able to mine into Arthine and possibly get to where CGT's planet is sucking up Arthine, and cause a chain reaction destroying the barriers on CGT's planet that are used to take the rock on Arthine, after that the Captain of Arthine can activate the weapon systems and possibly break through to CGT's planet's core, destroying the whole planet." TGC said. "How are you able to come up with a plan that fast?" Toz asked. "I know how CGT operates. He is my evil insane side that steals souls, just as the Valeyard is the Doctor's evil side that I believe does not steal souls. And you know how you work, right? If someone was most capable of overthrowing you, then it would be you, because you know you, better than anyone else knows you, except someone with amnesia." TGC said. "God I'm turning tonto Sheogorath here, anyways, activate your pocket sized drills in your Biggerontheinside(TM) pouch on your left hip" TGC said.
Back on the ship, Frank was trying to find something to do after his plot with the redshirts turned out of be a plothole, he soon decided to...

Suddenly, he realized that without the redshirts, the ship was careening out of control.
"Oh no!" He yelled, running to the controls and trying to stabilize the ship.

Just then, time slowed down around Frank, as he began thinking to himself "how did I get in this mess anyway?"

The explosion at the lab... where he was created. It was the greatest secret Frank hid from everyone else. See, he was not "created naturally," rather he was the result of an experiment to "grow humans" if you will, without the need for a natural womb. Born from a test tube, and raised in a gray, colorless world, he was treated more as a test subject than a human being. They created him to test the limits of biotechnology... but regarded him as "test subject 6-18-1-14-11" and nothing more. He knew little of the outside world. Then there was... the break out. Having spent all his time learning the sciences, he figured out how to use the scientists technology against them, and get out of the lab. ...... When he finally got out of his haze, he just barely managed to keep the ship steady, and had it go into a steady orbit around the planet. "I really should tell the others the truth... then again, they would never believe it" Frank thought to himself. (Bet you didn't see that coming  ) |

(Time to come out of the closet and *angry protesters attack D-11*)
Meanwhile, Diesel 11 was having his own problems.
"Goddamn it! I told them plainly, 'Don't put mustard on my sandwich!' People these days!"

D11 had breathed in the fumes of the albrescus flower of the planet; he was completely hallucinating as the others looked on, concerned.
"Should we help him?" Toz asked.
"Nah, our priority is getting off this planet, just leave him" TGC explained.
