Sara called some engineers to help gather the scraps they needed. “Let’s make this as quick as possible, in and out with the components we need and nothing else. Any questions or business before we disembark?”

-Cmdr Sara Kiernan, XO

“Didn’t Mr. Zank offered whatever he could to the Commander so long as his ship was brought along off the planet?” asked an NE.

GM

“Technically true. But I don’t wish to leave him with any less than is necessary.”

The Chief Engineer arrived and nodded once to the XO. “If I may, I have compiled a list of what to look for.” and he held out a piece of paper with a truly long column of needed materials. When he heard the NE speak of the other vessel being brought along, he looked a bit surprised and said “Wait… we are fixing two ships?” and looked at the XO for confirmation.

Si’Rek, CE

“Mr. Zank only expects his ship to be tractored, sir,” said the NE, “At least that is what I heard from my friend in Security said after Mr. Zank broke down to find out that he and his wife has been technically dead for years. The ship’s all he has left of his financial wealth… kind of makes you sorry for him.”

GM

“It does. A Ferengi’s wealth is everything, let’s try to preserve a little of his wealth and dignity. Chief, how long do you think you’ll need to assemble what you need to get the Asimov running?”

-Cmdr Sara Kiernan, XO

Si’Rek responded with “Mechanical and hardware components can be replicated, albeit slowly. With our current energy production, I couldn’t even begin to guess how long. Once we have consistent and stable power generation, I will be able to give you better idea. The main issue will be the recompositing of the dilithium crystal matrix to bring the warp core online. I simply don’t know if we will be able to do that at all yet. And without that, we have no chance of returning… let alone towing another, larger ship.”

Si’Rek, CE

“Well. Let’s get over there then and get what we need to get repairs underway.” Sara said with a smile.

-Cmdr Sara Kiernan, XO

The small group of Starfleet officers arrived at Zank’s ship, and found his very pretty and very beautiful wife. She was Risan, apparently, but she was mostly clothed. “Zank, honey! We have guests!” said his wife. She ran into the ship, presumably to fetch her husband. Zank came out a minute later, without his wife.

“Ah, Commander Kiernan, was it? What can I do for you?” asked Zank.

GM

Sara greeted him kindly. “Mr Zank. Pleasure to meet you. I have brought a small group from my ship over to acquire the necessary supplies to get up and running.” She indicated the CE and the rest of the team. “I’m given to understand that the deal we have struck is parts for a tow. Once the ship is running properly, or near enough to it, that should be simple enough.”

-Cmdr Sara Kiernan

“Let’s hope so, Commander. Months on this forsaken rock was nice at the beginning but without modern conveniences, it’s more like a prison than a vacation. Do you know what you’ll need to savage from my ship, Commander?” asked Zank, “I’d be happy to lead you to the appropriate parts of the ship – granted, my ship’s damage was far more extensive than yours, but we were fortunate that our quarters remained intact. The engineering section of my ship was heavily damaged, but I had sufficient power until we used most of it to save yours. Life support in certain sections of the ship were disabled to save power, so the air is likely stale in parts of the ship. My wife and I built a little generator out of spare parts which uses the nearby stream to generate some electricity, but not enough to power replicators. It was sufficient to run life support in small sections of the ship. I’d have to re-route life support power accordingly to the areas of the ship you’d want to explore, unless you might have some power to spare?”

GM

Sara offered Zank the supply list assembled by the CE. “This is generally what we need. As for power…” she turned to the engineers. “Chief! Do you think you could do anything for the power supply on this ship… at least for a while?”

-Cmdr Sara Kiernan, XO

Zank reviewed the list. “Hmm… yes, I believe this would be possible… but your engineers will have to supply their own plasma cutters to cut the materials needed in the unused sections of the ship.”
