LNS-Forgotten
(A ghost ship)

Actual name: LNS-Forgotten Class: Liberty Dreadnought Status: Ghost Ship Equipment: scrambled Crew: scrambled

Short story:

The name was LNS-Arizona. It was commissioned some centuries ago and vanished after the Dallas incident. After the incident, the ship jumped somewhere else than Liberty. In the Omicron Worlds. Some of the previous crew were diseased by an unknown virus due of an evolution of alien organisms. And those who survived, turned into something else that we name currently: Infected.

Arrival in Omicron Nu

The LNS-Arizona was one of the rares who survived from the Dallas incident. It was the beginning of the nightmare. There was no way back and unknown signatures came up to greet them. Nomads. The fighters who survived were destroyed by the Nomad fighters and gunboats. The LNS-Arizona had had a docking bay but the doors were damaged. It was impossible to dock. The gunners assisted the fighters as much as they could, but their mates went down like flies. The zone was free and the captain of the Arizona ordered to exterminate all alien ships. A long fight but victorious, the battleship patrolled the system alone. When aliens showed up, they were exterminated. Even huge nomad vessels appeared and did critical damages on the ship. Making some passages unuseable and more. The hangar was not functional anymore.

After this awful day, the crew was tired and the ship just traveled half of the system. They spotted a planet where they could land. Planet Marshall. The analysis of the planet showed a possible chance that life could survive there. Even if the little chance of the analysis revealed to be false, they had no choice. It was surviving or dying by doing nothing. The battleship launched the landing sequence with success even if some damages were made again but this time because of the atmosphere. Ship landed, and one volunteer went out and found water. Days passed on the planet and some contracted a strange illness. Fearing the worst, the captain ordered the crew to be ready to leave the planet and to prepare the battleship for a tour in space. However, it was just the beginning.

The crew began to be sicker and sicker. Some went crazy and died from their craziness. Some survived but were different. The captain did not know what to do… He was infected too, but not enough to develop any symptoms yet. He decided to isolate himself from his office and think about what to do. For hours and days, he stayed there. But in the ship, where Ryan Rockwell was, it was complete silence. He was alone in his room and very sick. Rockwell did a last move and it was to send a signal with a message but he fell on the ground and died. The ship remained in space for centuries. Many essential equipment ceased running. Only the weaponry system, live support and the engine was still running with no problems. The communication was something else... It would need to be fixed.

828 A.S

On November 1, the 46th fleet of Liberty received a strange signal located in Omicron Nu. Once they arrived at the source of the signal, they saw a battleship. A wreck from what we could see. The transponder ceased to function decades or centuries ago. They did not know the name so they dubbed it LNS-Forgotten. They needed to explode the hangar to get through and they visited the abandoned ship. Inside of it, they found old badges and old equipment. They even found corpses. One thing was clear though. They managed to get a log from the captain’s room. The message said basically that the crew was decimated by a virus because they landed on Marshall. But it was far from the truth.

Suddenly, after the log, an electronic voice warned them that the shield would be online in ten seconds. In panic, they ran to their ships and got away. The ship moved and shot to any direction before jumping somewhere where any of them could know. The ship was classified as a ghost ship. If any ship would meet the LNS-Forgotten, previously named LNS-Arizona, it would be at his own risk.

Rumors

The rumors of its disappearance say that the ship is filled with spirits or ghosts. And other rumors say that the ship can appear from nowhere. Other rumors within the Omicrons say that the ship was just a myth and nothing more.
