2x02 - Returning Past

General Summary

With a bloody fight and few dead Dabarani bodies on their backs, the crew of the Drunken Bitch left Shepard Terminal , travelling toward the edge of the system. Few hours after the departure they had their first surprise: a confused and battered man popped out from nowhere, wandering aimlessy through the corridors of the ship. They soon learned the identity of the misterious intruder: Idrisi ibn Ayyub, a man who's claiming that this was his grandfather ship, and he was trying to recover some data from a secret disk somewhere in the AI network. Or that's what he's saying.
Not really trusting the newcomer, but not wanting to eject him in the middle of the space, the group decided to conscript him for this job. After that.. who knows, maybe he will be a valuable asset after all.

Few uneventful days later, the passive scanners disrupted the serenity of the ship: an unidentified object was detected on collision course. A ship, apparently abandoned, no energy detected, was soon put on visuals. Or that's what the first appereance: the ship suddenly came alive, the engine signature matching [the ambush that greeted them in the system entrance  A fight erupted, but the results were quickly drawn: a couple well-placed hits and the enemy ship was disabled, weapons destroyed and energy cutted off.

"Hello crew! This is Javed Maniad of the Drunken Bitch. I believe we won this time, sooo... please surrender your ship or we will be forced to destroy you. For good"

The answer was chilling: a long static sound filled the Drunken Bitch cockpit, interrupted time to time by a chilling echo of voices, babbling random words. Any saner mind would have destroyed the ship, but the curiosity was too strong for the team, and finally they decided to board the enemy vessel, trying to figure the mistery. What's happening? And what they want from them?
