The Tomcat finally dropped out of warp and approached SB39 Sierra on impulse, she looked to Sh'Shaaqir "Lieutenant, contact the Starbase and get us permission to take up the orbit of the Starbase, if they ask why simply tell them we have come to investigate the abduction of a Federation Ambassador and we have one of his guards who will be leading the investigation" she said to the Andorian.

"Yes, ma'am," Thyra started and then said, "Hold on Colonel, is the starbase not aware of our arrival?" She looked confused.

"We are here ahead of schedule Lieutenant," Somers said to the Intelligence Chief, then she looked at Parker "okay Commander, take Lieutenants Ze & Hawksley, a Science officer and Lieutenant Winchester, he has Security experience, all are to take directions from you," the Colonel said looking at Winchester at the helm.

"Aye Captain," Parker said as he stood and made his way to the airlock to meet the others. Winchester was the only one he was familiar with from his time aboard the Tomcat. He armed himself with a standard small phaser, as Diplomatic Security he always kept one with him. Standing ready at the transporter he waited for the others to arrive.

Ze stood from his post "Understood captain" he said as he grabbed his phase rifle, tricorder and everything else he would need from his office, rounding the corner to the airlock "Commander Parker it is an honour to serve with you" he said falling in next to Parker with his rifle slung over his shoulder for good measure.

Hawksley was in Engineering =/\= Aye, Captain on my way. =/\= He prepped with a phaser and an engineering tricorder On this way to the main bridge, leaving Engineering to Lt. JG Haze a spartan staff now only remained.

"Oh thank you, Colonel, I was hoping I would not be stuck at Helm," replied Paul as he was pleased to be going on an away mission.

Now that they were in orbit with the Station Colonel Somers stood up "You have the bridge Number One and coordinate with Commander Parker's away team as and when needed" she said.

"Aye, Ma'am. I will maintain continual coordination with Parker's away team." Dodd replied and he stood while the Colonel gave the orders.

With that, she went into the CRR and pulled up crew service files, her cousin may know who is who on this ship, but she did not, she looked at the personnel files "K'Ruuras, Caitian Security and an Ensign, hmm not long returned from wherever he had gone, good I will take him, as she signed off she tapped her Commbadge =/\= Somers to Hawksley, Lieutenant Arderne has some experience in Engineering, I think she is computer systems trained, could you please find her something to do in engineering while you are on a mission? =/\= Somers asked.

Stopping in the corridor from Main Engineering, Leland paused at the second communique from Capt. Somers. Lt. Arderne. Last he knew she was a Counsellor on the Tomcat. Perhaps her computer skills would indeed come in handy. =/\= Captain Lt. Arderne's skills will come in handy in Engineering. I am joining Lt. Commander Parker's away team as we speak. Hawksley out =/\= Leland picked up a backpack with the station's PADD information and the second set of weaponry such as a hand knife, and an Engineering kit.

=/\= Excellent, thank you, Lieutenant, Somers out =/\= she signed off and exited the CRR, and looked around the bridge "Lieutenant's Silver, Sh'shraaqir, you are with me. " She said then tapped her commbadge =/\= Colonel Somers to Major Donovan, Lieutenant Haze, and Ensign K'Ruuras, meet me in security =/\= she said.

=/\= Aye Ma'am On my way. =/\= Lt JG Jorel's voice sounded over the comm. He handed the station he had been working on to the engineer on the stand-by station and grabbed an engineering kit along the way headed to the designated location.

C'Tirr's head shot up from the PADD he had been reading at the Lieutenant Colonel's request. He was on his feet from sitting cross-legged on the floor quickly and smoothly as he tapped his comm. =/\=On my way Sir! Any required gear Sir? =/\= He asked as he laid the PADD down. He grabbed a small bag that contained a pair of brass knuckles as well as some Caitian hunting make-up and was out the door. The rest of his away mission gear was stored in Security to get what he needed when he got there.

=/\= All items are in Security Ensign =/\= Somers said in response to the Security Officer's questions.

=/\= Aye sir! Already on my way. =/\= C'Tirr said as he entered the turbolift and headed to the meeting in security. He hadn't been back a week and was already on an away mission. The only thing he was worried about was his sister was on another mission on the Roosevelt. He hoped that she would stay safe.

S'arila was in the rifleman mess enjoying her downtime when the Colonel called she tapped her Commbadge =/\= Affirmative Colonel, meet you there, Donovan out =/\= she responded closed the link, finished her drink and went to get changed into combat gear, if this Alexandria Somers was anything like her Alex Somers then combat outfit would be required.

With that, she looked at the CIO and DCSO "Okay Ted, Thyra get your rears down to Security, but first copy all the data on that anomaly and Terran outpost to a PADD" she said.

“ Yes Captain,” Ted replied

Ted did as Somers asked. Then he logged off and calmly began to move to the turbo lift. But on the inside, he wanted to do a victory run of the bridge. High-fiving everyone. He was going on an away team with the Colonel. But Ted kept a straight face.

"Yes, Colonel," Thyra said, "I get right on that grocery list." She was just joking a little. But there were a lot of recordings and data she collected. She was curious though about what Silver found.

Meeting Lt. Commander Cody Parker on the main bridge, he stood next to Lieutenant Ze, Leland saluted Parker. "Sir." Leland one-off saluted the man. "Lt. Hawksley reporting. I am packed and ready for your orders." Leland had not planned on leaving engineering let alone it becomes so barren while he was gone, he trusted Lt. Arderne though.

Parker returned the salute, "Alright Team I believe this is all of us, let us go see what is afoot, Shall we?" He said as he left for the transporter room.

Looking at Parker "okay Commander good luck on all accounts" Somers said to him as he got his team members together and prepared to leave the bridge.

"Thanks, Commander," Parker replied as he turned and walked away.

When Parker had gone Somers turned to first Silver and then Sh'shraaqir "Lieutenant's anything new on that anomaly and Terran Outpost we detected?" she asked the pair.

“ At the moment the readings are steady. Which is strange as there should be some deviation. The outpost may hold the key to this” Ted said

Thyra looked concentrated on her console. "I have intercepted some messages that were supposed to go through the anomaly, but I may need to decode them. I am just going record them and analyze them later."

"Keep at it Lieutenant," she said to the Andorian before looking at Silver "Mr Silver see what information you can get from sensors on that anomaly, then Lieutenant's a hunting we will go, so whatever information you gain put copies onto your Padds," she said to both the CIO and DCSO.

"Yes, ma'am," Thyra replied as she continued her work.

Teds hands ran over the console.

“ Being done as ordered ma’am” Silver replied.

Now it had become a waiting period for the crew.
