It was almost a month later since the crews R&R at Earth. Currently the ship was out patrolling along the border of the Triangle once more showing the Orions and other pirating never do wells that the Federation was keeping up their part of the Klingon/Romulan/Federation agreement to keep the Orion led forces in check that the Merrimack crew had helped usher in only a few more months prior. It was a lazy patrol so far only getting brief scans of Orion merchants doing their deals in their own space, while theM Merrimack was creeping into unexplored areas of space when at comms the board lit up! It was a Priority One Distress Call, Audio Only!“Sir, putting a distress call through, audio only.” Tinga said to the bridge officer.
“Thank you,” replied Captain Glen. “Please pinpoint the location of the call and calculate headings.”
The location of the call was about 3 light years distant from their current heading, making for a system beyond known space as the Yoki system a scanned but not deeply cataloged yet system just beyond claimed Federation space that lay within the Triangle region.
A static filled audio message came through =/\= This is Captain Rogers of the USS Avenger to any friendly ships in range. We....Static..eed assistance =/\=
=/\= This is Captain Glen of the USS Merrimack. We can assist you Avenger. Can you state the nature of your problem? =/\=
It was a long moment before the call got returned =/\= Too dangerous to explain ov–static –ooms being tracked. Merrimack if you read us please intercept as speedily as possible. Will meet in the Yoki system on a heading of 034 mark 119 static –tch out for Orions, Klingons, and Romulans from within the Tri static gle! =/\= Rogers said.
=/\= Acknowledged. We will comply. Glen out. =/\=
“The Yoki system is beyond Federation space,” stated the Captain. “Do we know, is it claimed by any other power?” Glen asked the Bridge in general, but expecting that William or Tinga to be best qualified to answer.
A computer library check would show no one known claimed the system. It lay close to Federation space but was not claimed by the major power yet. A rough library check on the make up showed two planets both uninhabited and mainly composed of nickel and iron ores without atmosphere. The interesting thing of the system was the swarms of comets and asteriods of all makes and sizes within the single solar body system.
“Set a heading 034 mark 119. Take us to Warp 5,” Glen instructed.
“Sir.” the Security Chief rumbled from his station. “Suggest we go to yellow alert. If there is a vessel in distress, odds are great we may have hostiles to deal with when we drop out of warp.”
“Aye. Take us to a Yellow Alert,” agreed the Captain.

William opened the library files on the Yoki system. He was largely unfamiliar with this sector of space. “I’m checking our records for the system but I don’t recognize it from any Klingon or Romulan controlled systems in the region” He informed the Captain.

Tinga was culling her memories. Being in the Andorian military one learned interesting things and her family traveled extensively. Hopefully something useful was in those memories.

At the time Cross was in her office when she heard and saw the yellow light flashing in sickbay.The doctor contacted bridge =/\= Cross from sickbay ..why have the ship gone on yellow alert ?’‘ she asked hoping someone would enlighten her of the situation.
Cross Dr.
About this point NE Sleepy got the Merrimack going to warp 5, at their current speed they would intercept the Avenger at the Yoki system in 10 minutes.

Nkosenye keyed the comms. [O]Bridge to Sickbay. responding to request for assistance from another vessel. Recommend you prep for potential incoming wounded. Bridge out [O] To the point, no fluff… as Mthunzi was when he was working.
