=/\=Exeter, this is Bracken. Request generator assault target gps
522548.72N-015557.00W. Command Order Radio silence.=/\=

" Captain…"

"You know what to do Crewman."

" Coordinates are in Captain "

"Transfer it to OPS and Helm."


Moments later another communication came through.

=/\=Confirm target plus receive tricorder file Bracken 099.Command
authorisation. Bracken - six - kappa - nine - omega. Vibrate crystal to
confirm receipt. Radio silence Bracken out=/\=

Trip sat silently in a moment of thanks that his best friend was still
alive, doing her best to try and let them know where to find her.

"Sir?"

"Yes ensign."

"File has been received. Shall I forward it to you and vibrate the crystal
as requested?"

"Do it."


Trip then sat silently looking at his console, reviewing the briefing from
Merek, something clicked, something he had read the day before. Sensor
reflective hulls on escape pods. Perhaps there was something out there in
the wreckage that could be catastrophic if it fell into the wrong hands. If
Merek's briefing was accurate, he was going to need to double back at some
point, but it didn't necessarily need to be the Exeter that investigated.


"We're approaching orbit of the Lt. Bracken's location." Came the chime
from the OPS officer, an ensign Rodriguez who had come on to fill in for
Ensign M'Rurrh.


"Ensign Frost, drop us out of warp."


(Reply Frost)


Trip then tapped his commbadge, "Master Chief Brown, Ensign Page, and
Ensign Alexander, please report to main shuttlebay."


(Reply Brown, Page)


Billy looked at his cousin from the back of the bridge, nodded, and went to
the turbolift.


Trip then tapped his commbadge again. "Bridge to Lt. Williams, have the
shuttle bay prep the Michaelangelo. Ravok's team can take the Leonardo,
Merek's the Michaelangelo, I need you to take the Broken Bow along with
Master Chief Brown, Ensign Page, and Ensign Alexander. Go back to the spot
where we fought the Interceptor and check the wreckage. I'm sending you
Merek's briefing. They probably have escape pods coated with sensor
reflective hulls which will make them hard to locate, but I think the four
of you can do it. Find whatever you can that you think is important to
salvage and secure it, but be careful. This group has been known to place
explosive devices in escape pods."


(Reply Ire)


"You are clear for departure as soon as your team is ready."


(Reply Ire)


Finally Trip made one last call, "Lt. Merek, Lt. Ravok, I'm sending our
coordinates for Lt. Bracken's location to the Shuttlecraft. Stay safe, do
your best, as soon as your teams are assembled and ready, you are clear for
launch. Bridge out."


(reply Merek, Ravok)


Trip then sat silently in his chair. "Yellow alert!"


(reply Frost, Page, Brown, Ire, Merek, Ravok)

and Rob. Just getting this out so that as soon as they are done you can
