Plague on the Discovery

While returning to Earth after one of your undercover missions, your superiors told you to try and find the Discovery, an exploration ship that went missing just a few days ago. You managed to find it floating adrift near the asteroid belt between Jupiter and Mars. You tried contacting the ship, but there was no response. Why did no one answer your calls? Where was the crew? Where had the ship been the last few days?

You then contacted your superiors on Earth to notify them of your find and they instructed you to conduct a rescue mission. You carefully approached the Discovery, docked your ship, extended the pressurised boarding tunnel and entered the Discovery through the airlock. As soon as you did, a group of security droids opened fire.

Unable to understand what was going on, but moved by your survival instinct, you sought cover and hid in the semi-dark docking bay. As the droids were now searching for you, the only way out seemed to be a metal ladder. Beyond the ladder, you might find more trouble, but this was not the time for indecision. The droids were on the hunt!
