Ranlei nodded to Shore just before transport. She hadn’t had anything to do with him up till now as they were on opposite duty shifts.being a Greene Orion her checklist evaluation was of course to check out his physical assets before looking at more practical things like did he look competent. Her evaluation at a glance prompted her to say, “Do not touch anything till it has been determined that it’s safe to do so.” He gave off a fresh from the academy vibe that made her nervous. Shecould be wrong but better safe than sorry.

NE Al’ways Re’ady nodded. “..Away you all go then!” He said with a flourish transporting the trio.

As sight returned to them they found themselves in the aft computer/enginerring room for Shanok’s Vulcan science ship. The ship normally had a crew of 10-12 so having only ran into Shanok was quite a mystery of why even a solo minded archaeologist like Shanok and the Vulcan Science Directorate only sent one scientist to dig up an entie ruins site. Even one person equipped with various tools and rigs to do the work himself.

The ship was in low power mode, like a sleeping beast awaiting the return of its master. The air was stale but breathable, only dim standby red lights allowing faint sight in the room. Said room was taking up the larger aft quarter of the ship a small TOS-era Class IV warp core arranged nearby vertically. Two control stations to port and starboard of it. The rest of the room was taken up by an old dutronics era computer core ranging a deck and a half in height along the front of the room in a square cluster. Like much of Shanok’s dig it seems the Science Directorate had given him a ship straight out of the early-mid 23rd century!

=/\= NE Al’ways Re’ady to away team you guys get in ok? Or need anything else beamed over? =/\= the NE asked. As the second round of transport brought the trio over the rest of their equipment like the bomb disposal kit and such.

=^=”Roger that NE We are fine for now keep a lock on us though the moment I or any of my team signal Beam us out”=^= she replied she began focusing on her heightened senses of smell hearing and eyesight to try and pick up any signs of danger

Miz’uki

=/\= Aye ma’am, lock is secured! =/\= Al’ways Re’ady replied.

Smells of the area picked up stale air, but nothing alarming off hand, hearing only picked up the breathing of the away team and the faint beeps of computers and systems on stand by and the creaking of the ship in spots but again nothing alarming, sight too was the same nothing stood out as threatening or off kilter to Miz’uki’s senses.

OOC: Pasting in Ranlei’s split!

Ranlei started scanning as soon as she was aware of her surroundings, NOthing about this was right. Vulcans would never send one scientist alone on a job like this, They most certainly would not send a ship like this out under crewed. That was just asking for disaster, “Chief? Who told us Shannock was here exactly? Everything about this is wrong. Ships a antique almost a century old. Must be a very fussy lady needing extensive repair schedules. One person couldn’t run this ship alone. Certainly not Shannok. He couldn’t even repair that sonic drill. Half the connections were connected to the wrong inserts. “, and she bit her lip and continued scanning for boobytraps, and possible scan blocking technologies. It wasn’t hard to block scans or feed a wrong reading to a scanner but if you looked for the actual blocking equipment itself it was near impossible to mask.

As Miz’uki recalled the Ark Angel had just been exploring the unexplored system as far as they knew when they ran into Shanok’s presence and no sooner had they contacted the somewhat surprised Vulcan of their arrival when the Gurdians had interrupted showing up. Scans for boobytraps showed nothing off hand not energy or mechanical based, same for scan blocking technologies.

“Looks clear so far.”, Ranlei said she moved over to a control mpanel and scanned it again before entering commands to bring lighting and life support up to standard levels.
She still didn’t trust Things completely but comfort and seeking it were it seemed built into the Orion mentality. Built for pleasure was her usual thought on why she dispite being raised by humans seemed to be as self indulgent and hedonistic as all accounts said her race was.
