Roman had to cover another grin. Rand learned fast. They’d spent three days on Kelmao and she remembered the camping protocols as well as the information given to her by his atmosphere expert, an NE in his department. “Which direction does our trail point us?” He asked, taking out his own tricorder to search for the warp trail after a quick glance to be sure no one was around. Then he gave a small sigh. “You’re right, we’ll freeze down here. Wind’s already getting chilly. Let’s contact the ship and perhaps we can spend the night aboard and then beam closer instead of walking for two days.” So, he took out his communicator, flipped it open and tried to contact the ship. =C=Landing party 2 to Sentinel, this is Alden. Can you beam us aboard for the night? We’re not quite interested in camping with no gear, nor are we in walking for days. Perhaps we can be beamed closer once travel is safer.=O=
~ Lt Cmdr Alden, XO/CSO
Roman’s communicator would vibrate indicating that Shirley was attempting to contact him discretely. She did this to avoid any kind of detection from the pre-warp civilization and to allow him ample time to get to a discrete location to reply to her vocally.
- Captain Shirley Rogers
Roman gave another quick look, then pulled out his communicator and flipped it open, putting it close to his mouth as he spoke: =C= Alden here. =C=
~ Lt Cmdr Alden, XO/CSO
Shirley raised the communicator to her lips, her face was expressionless, her tone was direct and to the point: =C= Number One, there has been an incident on the Sentinel. Gather the landing party and return to the ship immediately. We have guests to meet with up there. =C=
- Captain Shirley Rogers
=C=Understood Captain. Beam us up when ready.=C= Alden replied, glad to have an excuse to get off the planet.
~ Lt Cmdr Alden, XO/CSO
=C= The Sentinel should be locking onto your team’s signal now. I will gather my party and join you shortly. =C=
- Captain Shirley Rogers
Roman looked up and to the rest of the party, “Prepare to beam up. Make sure nothing is left behind.” Then he raised his comm again and said =C=Prepared to beam up when ready.=C=
~ Lt Cmdr Alden, XO/CSO
Once everyone had their things readied a swirl of transporter energy engulfed the team and they were soon back aboard the sentinel.
