*Duker decloaks his ship as he emerges from a wormwhole. Activates
the comm and sends a general message...* Uchhh humm...hello???...Is this
thing worki...*Gets a loud feedback* Umm...what exactly happened here.
I leave for a little while and everybody thinks they can just go kill everybody
with a war. I really don't see the point of all this, but if it must happen...*wispers
out of the side of his mouth* Which side is winning so I can join it. I'm
just dying to try out my new weapon I have been working on. It creates
a doorway that allows little gnomes to visit our galaxy to cause unholy
hell on the enemies technology.

*Looking around his new BoP* Wonderful. Now all it needs is a name
and a crew. *A spider speaks up: "We have the crew taken care of." A closet
opens up and several human-sized mechanical skeletons walk out and man
the controls, and so the skeletons in the closet become a skeleton crew
for the undead Klingon's Bird of Prey. (Awful-y punny, aren't I?)* Cool.
And I will name it the "ghaytanHa'".

Hmmm, because woodlice have trouble speaking Klingon they have decided
they shall call the BoP "Geoffrey"...

In a large discarded metal suitcase marked "Magic Plot Reset Button
Technologies, Inc.", there is a box-shaped depression in the moulded shock
absorbent foam padding. The Genesis Device it used to contain is now in
a partially disassembled state in Leroy's workshop. For days, everything
seems inert. Then a hole a millimeter in diameter is cut through the top
layer of padding. A pair of tiny ruby eyes peek out.. Seeing that all is
clear, a newly assembled Class 5b Scavenger hops out.. followed by a few
dozen more. The size of a letter 'O' in a typical printed page, these simplified
non-sentient micro-spiders go about searching for the critical raw material
to proceed on the next phase of its inbuilt Basic Survival programming.
Spreading out under the cover of shadows and miscelaneous junk, they scour
the Jolly Roger's cargo hold for vital supplies, and gather what they can
carry back to the suitcase. The suitcase's extensive security electronics
had been gutted by the Class5D Precursor Emergency Survival Reflex nano
from the 'teardrop'. (Size of bacteria) As more material is brought back
to the suitcase, it seems that it couldn't possibly contain the scraps
of insulation, bits of techno-junk, shreds of plastic and whatnot that
the scavengers have harvested. Which is true. The suitcase is empty. In
it's bottom, covered by the foam padding, is a tiny hole burrowed into
the deck. This entrance branches out inside the Jolly Roger's ship systems,
resembling a termite colony in both structure and feverish activity. In
a small space between pipes, the first Class 5 Arbeiter has been assembled.
With a start, it 'wakes up'. Until now, all the activity of the lower level
Class 5s were instinctive survival programming, with *zero* sentience.
The new Arbeiter, colloquially named 'chrome spider', only semi-intelligent
by itself, attempts to log onto the spider-net... and succeeds. With log-on,
it has become part of the distributed spider-net hive-mind, and becomes
sentient.
