snip“Well Lieutenant, if the probe is destroyed then it is destroyed. Our mission here is not to explore this anomaly. Our mission is to deliver this package, and try and teach the cadets as best as we can.
“What we can do if the probe is destroyed is pass the information along to Command, and they can determine if they want to send another ship out to look at the anomaly.”
In some ways though, Max was kicking himself for being the one using common sense. What had happened to the guy who used to jump into a mission head first, and ask questions later.
Cmdr. Harkness - XO
Just as predicted by the Helmsman, someone should give him a promotion, the probe appeared exactly where it was supposed to, exactly when it was supposed to, unfazed if a little gooey. Space dust dangling about it slowly dissipating. “The probe is waiting for us sir. Should I bring it aboard or just download the data directly to the Science Labs?”
GM
“Bring it aboard, we don’t want to leave any evidence that we’ve been here.” The Captain stated. “Science, once the data has been collected give me the results.” Weir doubted that they’d find anything useful in there, but it was better to be safe than not.

“Perhaps Captain we should start on our way to rendezvous for the drop off. We can always swing back through this way on our way back if there is something we need to investigate.”
Cmdr. Harkness - XO
The helm worked with science to bring the probe aboard and stashed it in one of the hanger bays as per protocol. Carefully he tapped in some cordentants and turned his head back towards the commanding officers. “Well, shall we sirs?”
GM Wombat
“Helm, set our heading for our rendezvous, warp 7,” Max said towards the helmsman before turning to the Captain. “Captain, shall we?”
Cmdr. Harkness - XO
Weir nodded at his XO. “Engage when ready.” The Captain stated. Harkness was correct, they did have a deadline to meet and it would have seemed fishy if they didn’t arrive close to schedule. He was a bit curious to what the probe found, however.
“Science, take a look at the probe and update us if anything seems out of the ordinary.”
Weir (CO)
