Mission: [USS Ottawa]Bendy and the Dark Star Trek
Location: USS Ottawa holodeck 1
Timeline: MD001 2000 hrs.

Samantha O'Donnaghue walked up to the holoroom and tapped the console. It turned on. "Computer. Please start up TheMeatly games file 1. Bendy and the ink machine. Chapter 1." The computer tjirped. "Enter when ready." Came the monotone voice. The door swished open and Samantha went in. The doors closed behind her as she heard the violin played it sad tune as she looked around the familiar area of the Joey Drew studios. She must've played this game many times now. TheMeatly games inc., will be sending her a new holo version of the game next week. Sam was a fan. She played the other related holo games as well, so she was excited for this new version that would be coming out.

She looked around the room and then said, "Computer, set parameters. Deactivate and arch for two hours, I can only open them in emergencies. Or they can be opened by security override. Holodeck safeties on." The computer tjirped and the exit doors behind her disappeared and the studio exit appeared. She somehow felt a little sorry for the people in the 21st century, who actually played this game on a computer back then, and she now in the 23rd century was actually walk around the studio. The details were incredible. A fresh start from beginning to end. She grinned. She loved this game.

-------Two hours later-----

Samantha finished the game. She watched the demon disappear as she appeared in the last part of chapter 5. She could dream this last bit, so she said, "Computer freeze program." The music stopped. She had walked around this place so many times. Nothing new could be found, so she found it useless to go through it. "Computer show exit." The doors slide open and waited for Samantha to go through. "Computer safe progress and end program." Everything disappeared and she walked out of the holo suite.

The doors closed behind her. But what she didn't know, somewhere in the systems of the holodeck a dark entity awaken. It has been observing so many times. But this game was it. This was the one, it thought. The dark entity, that would appear on scanners like energy and to the naked eye as a black spot moved around and then went in to the system. A surge went through the entire ship. All over the ship lights went off and power went down. When the power turned back on, the lights were dimmed, some places even dark. The ship had undergone some changes.

Systems closed down one by one. Shuttles and fighters turned off. Escape hatches, escape pods, transporter rooms turned down. Some doors were boarded up. Some walls appear to have holes in them. Floors, ceilings and walls had ink spots and pools appearing, and also weird messages written in black ink.

Samantha standing in the hallways on her way to her quarters stopped when the lights turned off. When it was light again she looked around and then a soft violin was heard over the com system. Samantha's face turned white as she heard that. Uh oh, did she do something wrong. Did she hit the wrong button. What was going on? Why was chapter 1's theme song from Bendy and the ink machine playing over the com system? And why did the hallways look like had merged with Joey Drew's studio?

Then a yellow alert was given. Samantha had better head to the bridge. Maybe if she confessed she might had something to do with this, operations might be able to fix this...whatever had happened.
