YE/D01 - Bridge

[Arwen Qi]

The discovery of the distress signal had launched the bridge into a flurry of overlapping chatter. The ship was old. Based on the limited sensor data available, it had likely been stranded for decades or longer. They were unlikely to find any survivors aboard. Still, it was their duty to respond.

And yet, something still wasn’t right. If this ship had been broadcasting a distress signal for that long, why hadn’t someone noticed it before now? This region of space was remote by Federation standards, but the Cardassians weren’t known for their lax border security. A stranded ship was perfect bait, daring the Federation to cross the line.

He shook his head. He would figure out the strategy later, once he knew what game they were playing.

“Sending the heading to the nav console now. Also scanning for anomalies in this region of space. I’d hate to scratch the paint on the Yeager’s first mission,” Qi replied to the captain. He queried the probe for any additional data, looking for radiation, subspace disturbances, and other hazards.

Our ship should be sturdier than an antique, but we should still make sure we don’t get ourselves stranded as well.
