This day was going from bad to worse. The last thing he needed was for crew to start disappearing.

Capt Foley - CO

” Sir, I ran a diagnostic again to be sure, one minute she was there in sickbay, and the next gone, but there was no transport or energy signature that suggested some sort of beaming had occurred” said NE at the science station.

The Challenger was now about 1000 meters from the hull of the ship, sensor show a large opening forming in the bottom of the other ship.

Mr Centauri GM extraordinaire

Aaron sat back heavily in his seat. “Keep searching. There are only so many place a she could go.”

There was only now thing left to do, and hopefully would work. ^=Attention all hands, this is the Captain. Secure all stations. I don’t know what we are going in to, but we are Starfleet, and we train to explore the unknown. Keep your eyes open, and stay safe.=^=

Capt Foley - CO

As the crew secured the ship, and prepared for what was to come, the crew also frantically tried to get the systems back under control. The alien vessel pulled the challenger toward the bottom of the ship and eventually created some sort of soft dock with the up 5 decks. Loud clanks could be hear as something latched onto the surface of Challenger.

“Running continuous active scans of the alien vessel,” Demil reported, “10 second refresh rate. Perhaps with a docking port open we’ll be able to ascertain more details.”

Lieutenant Demil Lis
Chief Science Officer

The material is very denses, scans from the outside do not seem to be able to penetrate the hull. As Lieutenant Demil Lis searches for answers another powerful energy surge begins to build, similar to the last. Directly ahead of the ship, If the readings were correct there would be a transwarp conduit opening in the next two minutes.

Mr Centauri GM extraordinaire

“That will be a negative. I’m not comfortable opening up an airlock until we know what is going to be on the other side. Do what you can to find out what is going out there.”

“Aye, sir. Detecting another surge, estimating less than 150 seconds until another transwarp conduit opens.”

=^=Bridge to Engineering. Whoever is out there has locked onto our hull. What’s your estimate of the amount of damage we could be expecting if we had to break free?=^=

Capt Foley - CO

=/\= Embers here Captain. We just finished locking down engineering. Still sorting the EPS overloads as well which until we’ve tracked those down and ran bypasses is preventing troubleshooting most other power related issues. However, with the engines still offline I doubt the RCS thrusters got the power to break us free. I might be able to try to get us a phaser burst or two from the emergency batteries if you wanted to take a shot. Or maybe a deflector pulse to try to disrupt the tractor beam. But it could also cause more harm then good at this point…=/\= She said

Lt Ruby Embers CE

=^=Well why you are thinking that over, lock down the rest of our systems. It looks like we have another ship incoming in about 2 minutes.=^=

Toby had been trying to keep a low profile and had been taking notes on how the cadets were reacting and what the senior staff were doing. Performance was key and he was there to ensure that the standards were high and to keep an eye on any potential future agents. He had been about to head to Engineering when he was informed that the XO had been killed. Blown up by an exploding conduit. That made him the most experienced senior officer on board (aside from the Captain). Torn between his primary mission and wanting to help out in any way he could, he turned on his heels and headed to the bridge.

Moments later he exited the turbolift and headed to the XO’s chair next to the Captain. He walked over to the Captain.
“Captain, I gather you’re down an XO. I’m willing to step up, if only temporarily.” He stated bluntly.

Commander Atob “Toby” Th’kylret (XO)

Lieutenant Demil Lis
Chief Science Officer

Aaron tried not to grind his teeth, the last thing he wanted was their observer running around his ship giving orders. He forced himself to take a deep breath, the ship came first. His personal feelings had to come later, and he could sort them out after they got out of this mess. Right now he needed to get his crew back and the Challenger home.

“Fine, temporarily,” he said looking Toby in the eyes. “Take your pick, help with engineering, or see if you can track down our Chief Medical Officer.”

Capt Foley - CO

Toby nodded, suspecting how the Captain felt about having him.

“I’m running a scan for the CMO’s biosigns now Captain,” Zunara called from the Security Station.

-Lieutenant Zunara: Chief of Security-

The scans still could not penetrate the hull of the other ship and there were no signs of the Doctor anywhere. The deck 5 airlock seemed to be the first one that was inside the enemy ship perhaps a scan from there might reveal more.

Mr Centauri GM extraordinaire

“Where exactly did they connect to the Challenger?”

Capt Foley - CO
OOC: for whoever looks into it.

Basically soft dock around the entire saucer around deck 5, leaving 4 to 1 likely inside the unknown ship.

Mr Centauri GM extraordinaire

Toby pulled up the results of the scan from the XO’s chair just to assess the situation to ascertain where he was best suited to help. Noting the results he sighed.
“I’ll head to deck 5, it seems that’s inside the ship already, I’ll run a scan from there for our Doctor.” He stated and then tapped his comm badge =^= Any security cadets please meet me on deck 5. =^= he then nodded to Foley.
“I’ll keep you informed Captain.” With that he turned on his heels and headed to deck 5.

Commander Atob “Toby” Th’kylret (XO)

Aaron nodded back. “Ideas anyone? How do we get out of this mess,” Aaron asked as he looked around the bridge crew.

Capt Foley - CO

Aaron thought for a moment as he started at the screen. “Try hailing the ship. Let’s see if someone out there is listening.”

“Channel open sir.”

Talking a deep breath, he stood up. =^=This is Captain Foley of the Federation starship Challenger. Can you hear me? I’d like to talk to whoever is in charge about releasing our ship.=^=

Capt Foley - CO

Zunara leaned forward intently, watching the viewscreen for any sign of ill-intent.

-Lieutenant Zunara: Chief of Security-

At first there was nothing, like nothing like there was no signal being sent at all. Was the power working to the comms array. It checked out ok, and then they heard it. A High pitch hum, it was osculating to prefect to be noise.

Then a Giant Transwarp conduit appeared , as quickly as it opened the alien vessel went to trans warp as did the challenger now attached to it hull.

[30seconds in Transwarp]

Mr Centauri GM extraordinaire

Aaron’s eyes went wide as the ship entered the conduit, dragging the Challenger behind it.

“Lieutenant Lis, where is it taking us?”

Capt Foley - CO

“Working on a best guess, sir,” Demil replied.

Lieutenant Demil Lis
Chief Science Officer

As Lieutenant Demil searched for answers the ship was being whisked away to some unknown destination. It was hard to tell where but the current indications were that the conduit was headed to the far side of the delta quadrant maybe further.

Mr Centauri GM extraordinaire

Suddenly over the ships combadge/comms systems…

=/\=Rox to Challenger. Come in please.=/\=

Lt. Rox, Chief Medical Officer

“I’m struggling for a fix on an exact location, but we appear to be headed for somewhere in the Delta Quadrant.”

“Should I arm phasers Captain, we don’t know what kind of welcoming party we should expect.”
