“Stewart, scan for signatures or anomalies, Conlon, search for signals and hails and try a general hail, anything that someone might pick up.” Marceau said, and then used the comm system to page engineering: =/\= “Bridge to engineering, I need a power status. Is there any way we can move faster?” =/\=

~ Capt Renault

“Scanning, sirr.” Stewart said as he had already been scanning and watching for anything out of the normal.

~Lt. Commander Alexander Stewart CAO

Sickbay sent confirmation to the Comms station that Rachel and her small staff were ready to receive any potential injured as well as read to head away at a moments notice.

Dr Grey- CMO

[O]Faster Captain? I’m an engineer Captain, not a miracle worker. We’ve already got one of the fastest ships in the fleet. How much faster are you wanting us to go?[O]

Lt. Paige Garrison - CE

“Aye, Captain,” Aiden replied. “Sickbay reports full mission readiness.” He set the system for a wide-band transmission. “Civilian Vessels, this is the Starship Sojourner. Please Respond.”

Ensign Aiden Conlon
Linguist/Comms Officer

“I want to reach the first coordinates quickly. We don’t know how many supplies the ship had left.” Renault said into the comms. He nodded to Conlon’s notification.

~ Capt Renault

OOC: I read back .. we are doing our max cruising speed of 3.8. Can do 3.9 for up to 12 hours and 4.0 for 3 hours. We’ve not been upgraded yet to post Xindi upgrade. Gene

Natalia was humming quietly to herself at the Science station as she listened and waited.

Commander Natalia Petrenkov, XO/CSO

OOC: thanks, Gene.

IC:

“Helena, bring us to warp 3.9, try to cover some more ground.” Marceau said.

~ Capt Renault

“Aye, Sir.” Her hand moved over to the throttle, slowly bringing the ship up to 3.9. The hum of the engines increased, Helena could feel it in her hands on the controls and through the soles of her feet. She loved the feel of how smoothly the Sojo responded to the controls.

Lt. Laursen, Helm/Navigation Officer

[O]Bridge, Engineering here. You’ve got about…12 hours before our systems start to over heat and shut down. Then we are definitely going have slow down Captain.[O]

Lt. Paige Garrison - CE

No one answered the hails and no anomalies were within sensor range. The Sojourner had been at maximum warp for almost nine of the twelve hour shut off time. It was beginning to look like they’d need to slow down and vent the engines soon. But… a faint transmission was received though it was full of static.

~Creeping Dread

“Transmission coming in, Captain. Trying to clarify.”

Ensign Aiden Conlon
Linguist/Comms Officer

“Can we tell where it’s coming from? It could tell us which direction to go.” Marceau said, looking around the bridge.

~ Capt Renault

The engines were going to start showing the extra work that had been placed on them. Helena spoke over her shoulder, “We’re reaching the nine of twelve hour mark for the engines, Captain. Should I drop to impulse to vent the engines while we search for a signal?”

Lt. Laursen, Helm/Navigation Officer

Only fragments of words were coming through. Nothing that could be made sense of. Any attempt to triangulate the signal would conclude that their course needs to turn to port 23 degrees but distance is still undetermined.

~Creeping Dread

OOC: I am returned from LOA. Had a great vacation!
IC:
Stewart immediately began to triangulate and scan in the area where the signal was coming from to see if there any ships in the area.
