Mission: Vipers and Scoundrels
Location: USS Victory Bridge

The patrol had been progressing without incident for some time until Bertrand started to get a transmission through.

"Sir, I am receiving a distress call. It is on a Federation Ambassadorial signature, but it is being carried by a Cardassian carrier signal."

The Captain turned around to Tactical. "What the bloody hell?" He got up and proceeded to the Console. "Can you determine the location and authenticity?"

"The code checks out, though it is a little old," Bertrand responded. "I have coordinates, but it is just past long range sensor range, and just outside Federation controlled space. They are reporting engine failure and requesting engineering help from any available ships."

Satele had reservations about going anywhere near a Cardassian vessel, mainly because they typically have Cardassians onboard. Even though her father was one, she knew next to nothing about them besides what she'd been told by her family and at the Academy.

"Probe loaded, and readied" Mickey said as he prepared a long range probe.

Elijah shook his head. "Forget the Probe Lieutenant." Elijah said as he looked at Ops. "Inform the CDS Gravvelor that we will be late to our Patrol Route to deal with an emergency." The Captain then paced over to the Science Console. "Luckily Cardassian Space isn't totally defined eh Lieutenant?"

"CDS has been notified of our situation" Mickey said as he relied the message

Valeria gave Elijah a smirk, "It is rather difficult to draw precise borders in space, since all the landmarks tend to move."

"Satele, take us to their Coordinates." Elijah said with a nod to Helm and then moved back to his chair in the middle of the room. "Hopefully we can try and get in and out before we overstay our welcome."

The Victory sped towards the coordinates and soon a Cardasian Groumall Class freighter appeared on sensors. it was indeed suffering engine failure, and from its age and condition it was not surprising.

"I am reading rolling power blackouts around the ship. She has power to her life support systems but little else. No sign of battle damage," Bertrand reported. "I am reading 33 life signs."

Elijah got up. "Very well, if you don't mind XO I would like to lead this Away Team." Elijah said looking at Michelle.

"Bertrand, Mickey, you're with me." He said as he looked to the two officers.

"Aye, sir," Bertrand nodded to a security officer to take his place. It was amazing how there was always a spare junior officer who happened to be nearby when the Captain suddenly ordered command crew to an away team.

Tapping his Commbadge, "Cor, Dereing, Kilbane meet me in Transporter Room 3."

In the heart of Engineering, Cordale gave a tap on his comm badge. "This is Cordale, on the way." and then made his way to the appointed room. "Thux on the move."

"Come Mr.Aladdin, it's time for our first mission" Mickey said as he went to join the captain.

"Oh boy! My very first Mission" Aladdin said as he walked with Mickey to the turbolift

Bertrand scowled, but he always did, "Mickey was ordered to come, not you. I understand you are under my orders to monitor him 24/7, but the Captain can override those orders for the sake of a mission. If I were you, I'd stay very quiet and hope he doesn't notice."

"On my way" replied Hood. She picked up her med kit on the way and headed out of the door. She had spent the last hour meditating in her quarters and felt relaxed and ready. She stepped into the the turbo lift ad the doors closed silently behind her.

"Transporter room 3 please," she asked.

Tapping his COMM badge Kevin replied, "Acknowledged."

Aladdin jumped on mickey to tap his combadge and he called cor =A=Hey, Cor! I'm coming on the mission=A= Aladdin said over the com.

"Umm, great! Make sure you bring Mickey." Cor replied over the comm as he made his way through the halls of the ship towards his destination.

"Damn, i keep forgetting how strong he is" Mickey said as he rubbed it off

Bertrand followed the Captain to the transporter room. He checked his phaser was set and powered. He hadn't felt any hostile intent from the other ship, but there was some high level of anxiety over there.
