A steady beeping from the command console awoke systems from their slumber. Tracking and targeting data began to light up across the bridge as holographic displays sprung up plotting courses and interception arcs.

Electrical charges were run through the freshly defrosted liquids, as it sort to restore life to that which had been lifeless. And one by one the pods slid open, spilling their contents on the deck.

Hacking and choking people, spewing up liquid from their lungs as they crashed to the deckplates, each one finally aware that they were alive.
