With everyone present on the Vermin the shuttle was ready to launch. They had a limited window to pick one of five random hunks of an alien spaceship to search for 1-3 possible life signs. The first chunk seemed to be an outer hull chunk of the alien ship in some shape. The second chunk looked like it might be part of the uppermost and either forward or rear most area of a ship. The third chunk seemed to be a center inner hull section. The fourth seemed to be a lower forward or rear area again. With the fifth one looking like an outer hull with possibly remains of some kind of sublight engine module partly still hanging on it.

“Alright, gentlemen let’s board and prepare while we wait for the Doctor.” Cross led the way onto the shuttle. “Falz, take helm, Ezeami co pilot and Security. Dr. Spenn can take Science and Soral and I’ll sit in the back.”

Counselor Alex Cross

Soral nodded in acknowledgment to Alex, afterall he was now a Diplomatic Officer so didn’t have anything that was in his job description to do on the shuttle.

He boarded the shuttle and immediately took his seat

At those orders Hegush looked up from his scans of the shuttle and faced, “Yes, sir” he said. He took a brief look down at the reading and seemingly satisfied that the shuttle bay crew had done a good job, he slipped his tricorder into his belt and boarded the shuttle to get himself settled in the pilots chair.

Spenn entered the shuttle at that moment. “Pardon me for my tardiness,” He said, “An ensign from ops had questions regarding a rather concerning rash. May I get an explanation as to why I was called here?”

Lieutenant Spenn Chief Medical Officer

“Quite alright Doctor, I have a hazmat suit here for you. We are going to look closer at some ship debris.” Cross said as he handed over the suit.

Riley started the engine system to the shuttle and started the sub systems.

“Is everyone here I am closing the ramp and sealing us up”

he said as his hands danced over the controls. Riley only enjoyed flying even a shuttle.

Commander Riley O’Nell (XO)

Chief Engineer Waryn’s voice came over the comms in the Counselor’s shittle. =/\=”Vermin, this is Rodent… have you determined which chunk you’ll be investigating first?”=/\=

Lt J.G. Izak Waryn - Chief Engineer - U.S.S. Ark Angel

Cross activated the comms to answer Waryn. =^=Vermin to Roedent. I think we’ll take that second chunk, it looks interesting. Good luck on your own!=^=

Ollie took his place next to Lt. Hegush and checked over the console to make sure it was configured the way he liked it. He turned to the lieutenant with a grin, “Nothing like a little stroll out into the unknown, radiation heavy, remains of space junk eh lieutenant? I do love a good tan.”

Lieutenant Commander Ezeami - COS

“You could use one,” Falz joked, “I’m looking forward to playing chicken with the junk and test my pilot skills out. Might even treat the team to a couple of flips in this baby.” He leaned sideways toward Ollie and dramatically whispered, “Just don’t tell Counselor Cross I’ve never flown a shuttlecraft before.” Then gave a good-natured laugh so Ollie (and anyone who might have heard) knew he was only joking.

Lt. Hegush, COO

“Ready, whenever you are, gentlemen” Cross said to Hegush and Ezeami.

Counselor Alex Cross

“Aye, sir” Hegush nodded, tapping at the panel in front of him as the doors to the Shuttlebay began to open and the scenery changed from cold sterile doors the the expanse of space and stars… And the ship wreck they were heading towards.

Lt. Hegush, COO

With the Vermin clear of the Ark Angel the shuttle began its vectoring to approach the 2nd ship chunk. On their approach they passed tinier fragments that were utterly burnt out and useless. Scans also were still a mess due to the radiation and residual left overs of the ion storm from a week ago, coming up on the large second fragment they could see it spanned maybe about 2 deck sections and possibly part of a 3rd near the bottom. Sensors showed some faint power across the whole chunk but couldnt make out much details other then it was an unstable power source. They couldnt though confirm nor deny if a life sign was present here, but thankfully due to its size it would be easy enough to land on the outer hull of the fragment near the top then walk a few feet to pass inside it using their eva suits to begin their search

“Is everyone’s EV suit adequately prepared for this endeavour?” Asked Spenn, “It goes without saying that radiation exposure is quite harmful, and the recovery is a lengthy one.”

Chief Medical Officer

Sorel nodded to the CMO in acknowledgement, he wasn’t too worried about the radiation, Vulcans could withstand more than Humans, though he knew he would still succum to radiation sickness eventually
