Young and naive, Shermeen is the perfect target for Vindrus. He needs her to steal a portable nuclear generator to power the unit that will bring his people back.	Helena and Ben attempt to restrain the fever-wracked Maya as Alpha passes through a space warp. While off the Moon on an exploratory flight, Koenig and Tony are left 5 light-years behind.
The creatures of the planet Sumin are mov- ing backward in anti-matter time toward their destruction. Their leader, Vindrus, tricks botanist Shermeen Williams into helping him bring his people into the mat- ter world. As Koenig, Maya, and Fraser ex- plore the apparently lifeless planet, Vindrus leads Shermeen into a strange tem- ple guarded by Thaed; a huge bipedal liz- ard. Inside, Vindrus instructs Shermeen to bring a portable nuclear generator back to the temple to power the machine that will bring the Sunimians into the matter world. What Vindrus has not told Shermeen is that for every person transported, an- other must be transported into the anti- matter world. Koenig must then find a way to get Shermeen back when she is exchanged for Vindrus, who intends to use all the Alphans to return his people. Shermeen Williams: LYNNE FREDERICK Vindrus: STUART WILSON	While Tony and Koenig are away from Moonbase investigating a derelict space- craft, Alpha goes through a warp in space and is hurled 5 light-years across the galaxy. Eagle 1's only hope is to find the warp through which Alpha has passed. But back on Alpha, Maya has contracted an illness Helena cannot cure. In her delir- ium she attempts to reach an Eagle so she can return to Psychon to save her father. She changes from creature to creature, unstoppable by laser guns and anaesthetics. As Maya's Eagle lifts off from its under- ground hangar, it bursts into flames and she is rescued just barely in time. While Koenig and Tony explore the derelict in the hope that they may find some clue to the position of the warp, Maya turns into a powerful monster and starts tearing the base apart.
