“Would they not find the probe as they are looking for us? Is there a way we can disguise the signature of the probe?” Stovik asked.

Ooc: my apologies for days. The move went well minus a hiccup or two.

Ic: A deep rumble would give them the answer they needed. Whether they knew the ships location or not, it would seem that a few phasers strikes against the shell of the asteroid had happened. Large chunks of rock broke free from the walls and started floating around the Chernov, occasionally tapping the hull, causing ringing noises in the ships corridors.

Andrea wanted to curse, but she held her tongue. “Their sensors must be more advanced as ours, ” she began to say but then checked something on the console “Ugh, the plasma.... we seem to be venting some from the nacelle. It probably wasn’t too hard to realise, we took cover in the asteroid field. As far as i can see it’s spreading though, so our exact location might still be a bit of a mistery to them.”

Using a shuttle to call for help was for now out of the question. They would see it imediately and just shoot it out of the sky.

Will looked at the Security Chief with a concerned look “If we get main power back will we have enough functionality to fight them off?” He asked concerned “We still have the torpedoes we had prepared I think.”

Stovik had been sitting in his command chair pondering options. They had to try to get the upper hand and there were not a lot of good options. “From your scans of their ship, do you think we could beam a small party on board without them knowing it?” He asked Stone and Will. They had to get the beamed crew back and one of the only ways to do that was go get them. He could send Givens and Stone to head the strike team. Perhaps they could do some damage to the Cardassian ship on the inside as well.

“If we managed to lower their shields, we can attempt to beam over. We would need only a couple of moments for that. Once inside we could locate our crew with the use of tricorders. The Cardassians appear to be different enough for us to isolate our DNA’s. It’s hard to say what internal security they have. Their weapons and shields don’t look much different. If internal is similar as well, then finding us won’t take long at all. But if we are lucky they might have no internal intruder detection system on their ships.”

At this point a lot was guessing. The enemy’s capabilities were largly unknown. Not until a full ship scan was done or they managed to gain access to their systems could they know for sure.

“We could mask our presence, but in order to do that, we’d need to capture one of them first and make a DNA scan.”

An NE from over in the corner thought for a moment. “What if they are like us and drop shields when they believe there is no perceivable threat? Like if they truly believed we were destroyed?”

Stone nodded. “Most likely they do. They require huge amounts of power. However since they are firing on the asteroids, I belive we haven’t fooled them compleately. Perhaps by the time our own repairs are somewhat finished, they’ll grow bored and drop them. I’m afraid if we wait for too long though it could all be for nothing, if they called for reinforcements. But judging by how persistent they are… I have a feeling they want to capture us on their own. I’m sure they’ll earn some kind of reward or recognition if they capture us.”
