Editing The Machinations of Erebos (section)

==The Attempt== 

[[Mil Nicolae]], in the meantime, under the control of the parasite, acquired a runabout from the station and proceeded to put his assassination plan into action. He maneuvered the runabout close to the Hades, which was docked. He then modulated his [[transporter]] to allow it to pass through the Hades [[Deflector Shields]], using knowledge from the host's mind. Once those preparations were ready, he managed to locate the Captain and transport her aboard the runabout.

There he planned to kill her with a [[phaser]]. interestingly enough, however, Mil managed to wrestle with the parasite for control, and in an extreme force of personal willpower, fired upon himself with the phaser. The weapon was set to kill, but despite this, Mil was only seriously injured. this was a mystery that helped the science teams develop a more comprehensive theory concerning the cause of the abhorrent behavior.

When a Marine rescue team arrived aboard the runabout to rescue the captain, they took Nicolae into custody and returned to the Hades.
