SD: 2262.028 | |||
Scene: Airlock, Deck 6 | |||
“Lieutenant Ngyuen to the bridge.” | |||
[Gar here. What is it lieutenant?]. The Andorian was clearly perturbed at the call. | |||
“I *told* you not to call the bridge.” Ensign Sommers, Nguyen’s partner whispered. | |||
Tom waved him silent. “Commander I think I’ve made a discovery about the station out there.” | |||
There was a long pause which caused Sommers to wince before shaking his head. [You think?] | |||
“Excuse me sir. I *have* made a discovery. There is what appears to be a WAYFARER class merchant ship that has impacted on the station. It appears to have internal power.” | |||
Another pause. [Mr. Ngyuen given the Metrons have shut down communications and all external sensors how exactly have you discovered this?] Tom looked over at his friend with raised eyebrows, the tone was still not exactly warm and fuzzy but it had definitely softened. | |||
“Well commander I’m in the Deck F starboard fore airlock and I’ve been using a telescope to examine the station.” | |||
[Stand by.] | |||
“Oh that doesn’t sound good.” Sommers groaned. “Not good at all.” | |||
Less then 90 seconds later, much faster then Nguyen had thought possible, Commander Gar stepped into the compartment. “Let me see.” He ordered. He stared intently into the telescope for more then a minute before turning back to the two junior officers and cursing under his breath. “I’m taking volunteers to lead a rescue mission.” | |||
“That’s me sir.” | |||
“Understand me lieutenant. The priority is to get HOOD out of danger. If there is any possibility of that I will do so. If that means leaving you and your team behind I won’t hesitate. We’ll of course do whatever we can to get to you but you need to know the consequences, so will the members of your team?” | |||
“I understand commander.” | |||
Gar stared at him for a few more seconds before his face softened. “We still have several hours before the Metron deadline expires and I don’t anticipate anything changing. All the same I would suggest expediency.” | |||
“Yes sir!” Ngyuen replied before trotting down the corridor to assemble his team. | |||
<<<NRPG>>> | |||
Was just remembering at the start of the mission it was a one man merchant ship that ‘discovered’ the station. Just giving us something else to do. While Stile and Bray cook up their cure. | |||
Respectfully, | |||
