Posted by Fleet Captain Drudoc Andone (Commanding Officer) in Main Sim - Bridge - Return To Starbase 243
[snip]

An hour later the Ark Angel docked at Starbase 243, immediately Drudoc ordered security to urgently but politely round up the Browns Town crew and have them debark to the Starbase as quickly as they could for the sake of moving things along. In the meantime Drudoc left Trainor in charge of the bridge while she went to discuss orders with those at HQ about the situation.

While the Captain was away, Trainor began looking at the data the probes were sending back. Hopefully, they would find some useful information.

Trainor

Trainor’s scan results came back. They had found that not one but BOTH systems they had targeted contained presence of the Orion pirates, the first still unnamed and unsurveyed system had a small orbital outpost and three ship docking facility setup around a class M moon of the forth gas planet in the system. Three Orion Wanderer blockade runner frigates and a single Lightening class fast cruiser were present. In addition the orbital platform had armaments of disruptors and photon based weaponry of assorted types. All in all an impressive setup to say the least and no small feat of engineering and support for a Pirate organization like the Syndicate. The second system had only one planet with no atmosphere, but like the first system an orbital facility this one a bit larger and holding six Orion Wanderer blockade runner frigates and two Lightening class fast cruisers were in the docking ring, this orbital facility though wasn’t armed though did show signs of heavy armor plating and shielding systems above and beyond its expected system size. Again no small feat of engineering to setup and maintain for the Syndicate.

The first system was about half a light year out of unclaimed space between the region of the Bolay Military District and Federation Neutral Zone between both major powers, the second system was a quarter of a light year out in the same area of space. Which if either of these held Starr and/or Trax was a mystery though.

“Practically a fortress…” Lieutenant Commander Trainor murmured to himself. =^= Computer, can you locate the Captain and Lieutenant Starr>=^= The Ops Chief called out. This was definitely an important find, but Tenzing knew it might be difficult to search for one person in both systems.

=/\= Fleet Captain Adone’s current location is Starbase 243, Operations Office. =/\= The computer replied.

Lt. Frogue turned in his final report from his scans and waited further orders.

Frogue

It was a half hour later when Fleet Captain Andone returned from Starbase 243. She did not look pleased or stood as one who had gotten news for a rescue being approved. Looking to Trainor as she came onto the bridge she said more or less calmly. “..Report, any findings from our probes?” she asked.

“Nothing more than what my written report indicates sir…there was no real trail from our ‘guests’” replied Frogue
