Commander, our scans of the vicinity have detected a stranded Starfleet vessel. It appears to be the USS Merrion. The ship has sustained heavy damage and cannot move in its current state.

The readings from the Merrion are highly unusual. Although the ship has sustained critical damage, all escape pods remain onboard, and there is no sign of the ship’s log buoy.

This is indeed unusual. Lifesigns?

None detected yet, but with deeper scanning, we could– wait. Commander, a number of hostile vessels have been detected emerging from warp nearby. They appear to be targeting the Merrion.

Lieutenant Saavik
Dialogue
Scavengers. Their trajectory shows that they intend to claim salvage over the Merrion. They are likely to be hostile and will not allow us to approach the ship.

Your suspicions have been verified, Lieutenant – a number of their ships have broken formation and have engaged an intercept vector with our ship. They intend to attack us.

As you can hear, Commander, the transmission has been severely corrupted. However, we were able to triangulate the transmission’s point of origin to somewhere in the Ophiuchi system.

Come now, Mr. Spock. Under most circumstances, I’d share your apprehension. However, there’s no better chaperone than our good friend here. I think this could be a mutually beneficial arrangement.

Well, you are the senior officer on board, Lieutenant, and, since it’s safe to say that this is no longer a typical training mission, you must assume control of the ship.

Alright, I’ll try… The Merrion was deployed on a routine training mission to the Ophiuchi system. The mission was designed to allow Ensigns to gain practical experience in performing field maintenance.

A number of us were moving from Main Engineering to the Warp Core when a red alert was initiated. The Jefferies tubes were sealed, along with us inside them. By the time we got them open…

Correct. We would have been taken along with them if we weren’t locked in those service ducts. It’s just myself and a few other Ensigns left onboard now. If we stay out here, who knows what–

Dialogue
Lieutenant Saavik, a vessel has emerged from warp in close proximity to our ships. Its current trajectory suggests that it intends to intercept the Merrion.

Calm yourself, Ensign Tapert. Return to the Jefferies tubes and inform your fellow Ensigns to assemble on the bridge at once. We will take care of this hostile in the meantime.
