Although angry at [[Bernice Summerfield|Benny]] for undermining his reputation by telling stories about his childhood whilst [[inebriation|drunk]], [[Peter Summerfield|Peter]] asks for her assistance with the ''[[Vesuvius (ship)|Vesuvius]]'', a [[CoreTech]] [[spacecraft]] that left [[Clantis VII]] yesterday but, according to a [[radiation scan]], is 5,000 years old. It is heading towards [[Legion City]] and he wants her help determining whether it is safe to destroy it. She and [[Ruth]] join him in boarding the ship and find a dozen [[cryo-unit]]s.

The trio find the body of [[Sheira Rynn]] and the automatic resuscitation system begins. They take [[Mortan Hardak]] and [[Rickard Karne]] to the [[medical bay]], but Peter, believing that one of them is a [[murderer]], refuses to take them to Legion City until they find out what has happened. When Rickard finds out that Sheira is dead, he accuses Mortan as he was the last to enter [[suspended animation]] and tries to get the [[computer]] to show the last recording of her, but the footage has been corrupted and he orders the ship to enter [[lockdown]].

Benny separates the two crewmembers and they explain to Ruth and Peter that the ''Vesuvius'' passed through a [[wormhole]] and [[temporal shift|went 5,000 years back in time]], so they entered suspended animation. Mortan admits to loving Sheira, but she entered into a relationship with Rickard; Rickard, however, says that Mortan was in [[love]] with him. Benny attempts to find out what happened to the security recordings and learns that they were last accessed a year after the crew were supposed to have entered cryo-sleep, but Sheira's final [[journal]] entry survives. Benny performs an [[autopsy]] and watches the journal entry, which shows that she was using [[cellular-regrowth spore]]s for a bad [[ankle]].

Using a security feature, Rickard gives Peter an [[electric shock]], takes Peter's [[gun]] from Ruth and threatens to kill Mortan, but Peter incapacitates him before he can do so. He admits to lying about Mortan being attracted to him and Mortan confesses to having had [[sex]] with Sheira after she and Rickard had an argument. Ruth discovers that one of the pods had been active shortly before she, Benny and Peter came aboard.

Ruth discovers that one of the pods had been active shortly before she, Benny and Peter came aboard.


Benny, having found a draft journal entry recorded by Rickard, enters and reveals that Sheira was never murdered; Rickard discovered that Sheira was an industrial [[spy]] for [[SinoCore]], so she set the ''Vesuvius'' to fly into the wormhole, killed Rickard and used spores to make herself look him and to make his remains more like her. She was assisted by Mortan, who was also a spy, but he is no longer of use to her and she kills him. As the ship nears [[meltdown]], [[Jack (The Kraken's Lament)|Jack]] informs Peter that the ''Vesuvius'' will destroy Legion City's dome and Peter orders the ship to be destroyed.
