As the distance to the temporal anomaly closed, odd things began to happen. Chronometers seemed to count backwards briefly, and members of the crew started having eerie feelings of déjà-vu, as events occurred that they could have sworn had already happened.
In the corridors, names on quarters changed. Some wall panels began to look older and more worn, while others remained almost-new.
Most of these phenomena could be brushed off, but as the ship edged even closer, they could no longer be ignored. Crew were suddenly wearing uniforms from the mid-2370s, and their reflections were no longer their own. The habitable areas of the ship no longer seemed to be a nearly brand-new Yeager-II class, but rather an Intrepid-class that had seen better days.
And the ship was at Red Alert, juddering under multiple weapons impacts.
