Deep Space, Protoss Research Vessel Candela 0900 Hours Shipboard Time

The Candela is on a mission to test new genetic hybrid, a particularly dangerous strain. The ship has a central lab facility, with an open area for combat trials. The creatures are let out into the area, where a bunch of droids set up painted like AIF Marines. The creatures swarm across the area, while the droids open fire with IMG rifle replicas. The creatures swarm each droid similtaneously and take them down in seconds. Multiple creatures are killed, but the droids are destroyed.

The Protoss use their psionic abilities, combined with a pulsating beacon, to move the creatures back into the cages. Clones move in and remove the corpses for study. Of course, being non combat clones, they aren't wearing armor, and when one of the clones picks up a creature, it bites him, having not been killed, merely wounded. The clone swears, draws a shock stick, and zaps it. 2 security clones come in and shoot the creature.

Main Sleeping Quarters, 0023 Hours

The clone that was bitten earlier suddenly starts convulsing in pain. His eyes are blood red, and he starts sprouting extra appendages, topped with spines. He suddenly jumps up and falls on top of the clone across the row, savagely biting into his neck. This trooper starts convulsing almost instantly, and he gets up as well, as they move down the line, more and more get up and attack the remaining uninfected clones.

The infected clones run down the hallway, taking down anyone they find and turning them. Soon, most of the crew of 350 is infected, while the rest are holed up in various locations. On the bridge, a message is frantically being broadcast:

''This is the research vessel Candela, we have suffered a containment breach of a Class 1 biological agent. Most of the crew is infected, and we can't last much longer on the bridge.''


 * Crashing noises behind. Infected spill onto the bridge behind the camera*

''They're inside. We won't make it. We tried self destruct but the system was destroyed by one of our hybrids. Do not approach the ship for any reason. If you are hearing this message, destroy this ship and all its contents. Do not let the infection sprea...Augh!''
