Mission: To catch a thief
Location: Deck 1- Bridge

ON:

"Captain the scattering field is coming down," Daniel reported from the science station."

"Full scan of the ship, what's going on over there?" Taliserra ordered, she'd been gritting her teeth for the last while hoping everything was going alright on the pirate ship.

Daniel turned the Wolffs sensors onto the pirate ship finally penetrating through its hull to scan its insides. "I can pick up six life signs, one is very faint. All six match up to the away team."

"Only six," Taliserra said turning to face Daniel. "where are the rest of them?" She'd sent the team to secure the ship and bring some of the pirates into custody, not kill them all."

"I can't pick anyone else up there," Daniel turned back to the science console for a moment. "Captain there is a massive power build on the ship its warp core is overloading, the self destruct must be activted."

"What!" Taliserra exclaimed. "Get a transporter lock on them. Quickly."

=/\= Barron to Wolff =/\= Came Amelia's voice over the comm system.

=/\= Go ahead, what's your status Lieutenant? =/\=

=/\= Requesting emergency beam out, the crew were less than helpful and set the ship to self destruct. We have..=/\= she paused as she looked over her shoulder to the countdown on the ship's consoles =/\= Three minutes. We have also tagged some equipment to be brought back and some bodies. They might not be able to talk but the doc's might find some clue in an autopsy.=/\=

=/\= Understood, we will energise as soon as we've locked on. =/\=

=/\= Start with Ensign Turell and Chief D'Anconia, they need to go to sickbay as they were injured while over here. The rest of the team is good to go. =/\= Amelia replied as she waited to see the columns of light take the two injured crew and prepared herself for transport.

=/\= Understood =/\= Taliserra changed the comm channel =/\= Transporter room 1, lock onto the away team, transporter room 2, sweep the ship for transporter tags. Beam them onboard as soon as you have a lock.=/\=

=/\= Aye Captain. =/\= Came two responses from the transporter rooms.

"The overload on the pirate ship is reaching critical mass Captain," Daniel reported. "She's going to blow any second now."

"Lt Samson, raise our shields." Taliserra instructed knowing the bigger peices could easily cause damage to the Wolff if they hit it.

"Aye Captain," Lt Samson responded and quickly bought the Wolffs shields online. "the research base still has no shields showing, they may sustain damage from the explosion debris."

"She's going Captain." Daniel suddenly blurted out.

"On screeen."

The viewscreen changed to show the pirate ship, a series of explosions rippled across the small ship and it quickly came apart in a shower of debris.

Taliserra snapped into action dictating her instructions to the various stations. "Bracca, move us next to the base, as close as you can. Binea put auxillary power to the shields and extend them around the base when we're close enough."

"Aye Sir." Bracca quickly tapped out a sequence on the helm console and the Wolff smoothly but rapidly closed the gap between itself and the research base.

"Samson, use our tractor beams to move anything that our shields might not stop out of the path."

"Understood, engaging tractor beams." Samson had already scanned the debris for its larger peices and had several targets ready to be tractored.

"We're in position." Bracca announced, bringing the ship to a halt as close as he dared with the time he had.

Binea tapped at the ops console. "Extending shields, boosting power."

Streaks of flaming debris flew in all directions some of it being deflected by the tractor beams some of it smashing against the shields of the Wolff.

"Shields are holding." Samson announced.

After less than a minute the remainding debris had disintergrated or had its momentun stopped by the tractor beams.

Binea let out a slight sigh of relief. "I think that's all of it Captain."

Taliserra let herself relax a little, any immediate danger was over. "Status report."

"All systems fuctional, shields are at 80%, no damage or casualties reported." Binea reported after a few seconds.

"Good. Stand down yellow alert." Taliserra ordered and finally relaxed. "Lt Samson, corral the remaining debris into a cluster and have some bought onboard. See if we can glean anything useful from it."
