The ship had kicked into Warp 9 and Ang could see on the charts they had altered course. A quick communication message to helm confirmed they were on a mission and were racing to a destination.

“Ok, everyone. Looks like Captain wants max from this baby. We’re on a rescue mission, folks. And heading to an asteroid field. I want everyone at their stations. You two,” she glanced at two nearby cadets. “You two, Thorne and Townsend, need you to man monitor station six. While there, run a diagnostic on the weapons’ systems as well as the tractor beam system. We need to be sure we are prepared for everything.” She pointed to another pair. “You two, you know your place. Hit those antimatter chamber checks. We don’t wanna be slamming skulls cause warp drops from us not paying attention.”

She handed out assignments to everyone else and shooed them away to get to work. She, herself, went to the main console table and began playing with the asteroid charts to be able to suss out what they would need once they were on location.
