“I’m on it Captain,” Walker said as he slid into the operations station. He signaled the starbase regarding their immediate departure, and opened a channel.

=^= Starbase control this is the Manhattan. We need emergency clearance to break dock to intercept the incoming probe. =^=

WO Darach - COO

=^= Manhattan, this is Winchester, Event Horizon control, docking clamps are released, you are free to depart. Vigilante and Chisca Bay are standing by for your orders and we are preparing the Ambassadors runabout for departure through the wormhole. =^=

SGM

“Mr. Darach, plot intercept course to the device, full impulse. Comms. Hail the new arrival, all frequencies. Science, keep scanning and run all data against known Delta Quadrant species and vessels. Tactical. Shields up, weapons on standby. But no hostile actions, defense only.” and he tapped the comms. =/\= Manhattan to Vigilante and Chisca Bay. We are moving to intercept the source of the scans. Hold defensive positions and monitor for arriving craft from other vectors. Event Horizon, hold all departures until absolutely necessary. If the arrival is hostile, we’ll know before you most likely. If hostilities start with us, get the Ambassador out of harms way. Manhattan out. =/\= He then looked around and said “Ok everyone. Let’s go say hello.” and then a thought occurred to him. Looking at the CSO, he said “Lieutenant Deandres. As soon as you get a clear picture, send it to the Event Horizon Station, Ambassador’s office. They can ask the Kazon delegation if they know who it is.”

Cochrane, CO

“Aye, Captain.” Deandres nodded, running a scan through the computer systems to determine if the probe was similar to known Delta Quadrant technology. Doubting they would know for certain until they got a clear image of the device, Riali turned away from the computer. Glancing over sensors, she reconfigured them to try and obtain a higher-resolution picture by scanning for the precense of duranium-tritanium. She hoped they could get into close proximity of the probe for short-range scanning soon.

“Sir because of the high energy neutrinos being emitted by the device, detailed scans are impossible at this distance,” Celina reported. “If you wanted a deep scan, we are going to get have to get closer. I am however able to note six different sensor emissions. Lt Deandres, can you help me tease out any specific emission in this mess. I think I am reading one as the Hirogen,” Celina confirmed. After the Hirogen incident with Balian she would know that signature in her sleep. The others she would need help from the science chief.

Lt. Celina Rodriguez.

At this distance, sensors were unable to determine a power signature beneath the powerful sensor emissions. The intensity of the sensor emissions was similar to six known Delta Quadrant species encountered by the USS Voyager

• The Hirogen
• Species 6339 - No Other Designation Available
• The Sikarians
• The Vaadwaur
• The Taresians
• The Borg

While wandering the halls just to keep busy while not on duty at the moment he could feel the ship undock and walked over to a random porthole to view outside. Sure enough, they had definitely un-docked and had begun turning. The ship wasn’t scheduled to be un-docked or to go anywhere at least according to his notes for a while, so something was definitely up. His forehead scrunched wondering about the cause of it. Unsure of what it was he decided to head to the bridge to learn more about the situation. He started walking with a purpose to the nearest turbo lift to start his way to the bridge.

Ensign Tyv (Security AC)

OOC: Just as a note, the ship is at Yellow Alert.

James

OOC: Just read that after I hit enter x_x sorry, I’m slow today! I’ll still head to the bridge anyway though :P

-Mike

The young Betazoid ensign would have the same pictures flashing on his comms officer console. He felt it necessary to pay attention to he could know how to socialize with whatever was being shown to him, given his telepathy skills.

Ensign Barvan, Second Comms Officer

SGM

Ensign Barvan saw the results of Lieutenant Deandres’ search as part of his socialization. He’d then search all of USS Voyager’s records on all of the species to see what he would find. What could he find?

Ensign Barvan, Investigative Xenologist

OOC: I’m not entirely sure what you’re asking for, here, Luke. If you could clarify, that would be awesome.

Andy

OOC: I am looking for facts about these species that could be of use identifying the people we’re dealing with. Things like language, level of intelligence, common tactics, etc.

Luke P

The computer displayed known biographical and anthropological information on the species requested.

SGM

Barvan specifically looked at information on ships and tactics known to be used by the species specified. What would he find?

Ensign Barvan, Research Xenologist

OOC: Given that there are large and detailed articles on these species at Memory Alpha, I’ll avoid posting huge swathes of their data and point you in their direction.

Andy

Cochrane looked over his right shoulder at Barvan. “Ensign, I need you to leave science to the science section right now. Ship’s security should be your first priority. Ensure all sections are secured and all sensitive areas have security details deployed at this time. Thank you, Mr. Barvan.” and he then looked at the Ops Chief. “Mr. Darach, time to intercept?”

Cochrane, CO

“Copy, sir,” the Ensign said, while at the same time shifting his computer to camera scans of specific sensitive areas he’d identified when discussing the topic with the CoS. He’d also make sure to very clearly send electronic commands to petty officers to order their troops to areas potentially sensitive to a boarding action.

Ensign Barvan, Security Officer

Jack looked at the data at hand as he waited for the answer the Captain had asked. Delta Quadrant had given them a lot of challenges, nothing compared to voyager but on a level they still hadn’t expected at times. “You know from what I remember sir, I don’t like the sounds of that list of species at all. None of them seem like anyone I want to stumble into out her…” Jack said as he took a deep breath.

Creed, XO

“I don’t think we have a choice on who decides to make themselves known, Commander. We just have to play the cards we are dealt the best way we can.” Cochrane said in agreement. “And that list is a bit of a Rogue’s Gallery of Delta Quadrant species, isn’t it? But maybe things have changed a bit since Voyager was here. Who knows? Hope for the best, Commander.” and then he smiled a wry smile, “But plan for the worst.”
