The Rock On Star Trek: Voyager の小説・ストーリー

she declared, her voice barely above a whisper. With a few swift, practiced movements, Eira's skilled hands probed the rock face, seeking the hidden catch. Her fingers slid into a narrow crevice, and a soft click echoed through the air. The sound resonated through the stone, a vibration that seemed to awaken the ancient mechanism. A section of the rock face slid open, its massive slab grinding against the surrounding stone. The sound rumbled, a low growl that shook the ground beneath their feet. A dimly lit tunnel beckoned, its entrance shrouded in shadows.

It was a voice, amplified by the very rock of the mountain. ​You carry the mark of the Weaver. You carry the Architect's logic. But you fly a ghost of the Sentinel. ​The dome began to retract, revealing a massive landing bay filled with a soft, orange light. ​Enter the Forge of Vulcan, the voice commanded. And pray that you are who the planet says you are.

"The rocks don't talk to you. They only talk to people who love the dirt." ​Rowan reached into the pocket of his hoodie and pulled out the ordinary stone he had shown Vane. He didn't throw it. He dropped it. ​The moment the stone hit the concrete floor of the loading dock, the entire building groaned. A massive, jagged crack ripped through the foundation, separating Thorne from the truck. ​It wasn't magic. It wasn't a frequency. It was a Geological Fault. ​"He’s not a King," I whispered, watching my son. "He's a Trigger."

"Status?" "I just came from the cells," Valerius says. "Rohan talked. They tried to kill him to shut him up and he decided our side was a better bet." "What did he say?" "The Eclipse is the deadline for the Invitation," Valerius relays rapidly. "But Ryker isn't waiting. He’s moving a heavy asset tonight. Something called the Void Stone." "A Void Stone?" Kaleb asks, stepping closer to listen. "Rohan says it’s an amplifier. They need it to tear the wards down. Marcus’s voice isn’t enough. You have to destroy it. Charlie, they’re moving it from the rail yard right now."

seeing it as a sacred growth rather than a cold machine. Ten years later: Hope is forty. She stands at the base of the "Thorne-Vance Spire," a structure that stretches past the clouds. She hasn't married. She hasn't rested. Her romance is with the vacuum, and her heart is a clock ticking toward a reunion. The Message from the Rim On the eve of the Spire’s first atmospheric breach, Hope’s terminal chirps. It’s a signal from the Voyager probe—the one that had been shattered but now seems to have Re-Assembled itself in the Oort Cloud.

No larger than a coin. Its center glowed faintly. "This is a Starstone," Caelum explained. "It remembers the sky above every place it has been." They placed it in Noah's hand. "When you reach the valley..." they smiled, "...it will remember that sky too." Noah held it carefully, as though it were made of dreams. "Thank you." The Wayfinder rose gently from the silent waters. As it sailed away, the bridges remained shining behind us. No tower stood alone anymore.

I came back to the room on my knees, the paper crushed in one fist, my other hand pressed flat against the carpet like the floor might also disappear if I let go of it. "Aurora." He was already in front of me. I had not felt him move. He did not touch me. He crouched instead, close, watching my face with the particular stillness of someone holding himself back on purpose. "What did you see," he said quietly. "Stone." My voice did not sound like mine. "A cave. There was a symbol carved into the rock. The same one as the disc." I pressed my hand harder against the floor. "I have been there. I do not know when. I do not know where it is."

The Oort Cloud relay was not a machine; it was a testament to a cosmic arrogance that defied the very laws of physics. It loomed out of the absolute dark of the outer solar system like a skeletal cathedral built from frozen starlight and solidified shadow. A massive, rotating spire of violet crystal, miles long, it pulsed with a slow, rhythmic heartbeat that echoed in the marrow of my bones. This was the gateway. The throat of the universe. "The resonance is off," Nevan whispered, standing beside me in the command deck. He had Leo strapped to his chest in a tactical harness; our son was quiet, his eyes fixed on the gargantuan structure. "It feels... familiar. Too familiar."

"I need you to lift me up there." Without a word, he walks away from me. He returns momentarily rolling a huge granite rock. He steps on it before crouching. He lifted a questing brow at me. Oh yeah, he was waiting for me to climb on. I eyed the rock he stood on and the hand on the rod steading him skeptically. This fall was going to be worse than any I have had today, I just knew it. Hopefully, the crystal would be in place before that happens. With me on his shoulders, he rises and now, I’m much closer to the triangle. Reaching into my pocket, I removed the crystal and put it in. I had to turn it to find the right groove, but immediately it set in, it fit like a glove.

Then he looked at River. "You can sleep there," Ethan said. "It's safe. I checked." River looked at the nest. He looked at the cape. "And here," Ethan said. He reached into his pocket. He pulled out his worry stone. The smooth, grey rock Dr. Chen’s friend had given him. He held it out. "It holds the ground down," Ethan explained. "So you don't fly away." River stared at the stone. He took a step. Then another. He reached out and took the stone. He gripped it tight in his small fist.
