Chapter 2/Secret base discovered

(Beta Quadrant, sector 889)

The Enterprise, Intrepid, and the Kingston both drop out of warp and approach the Klingon starbase.

(USS Enterprise, main bridge, red alert)

Intrepid are you picking up any bio-signs on the starbase? Captain Martin says as he activated the com system.

Yes, three Humans and ten Klingons says Typhuss on the com system.

Can we transport them out Mr. McCabe Captain Martin says as he looks at the tactical officer.

Matt looks at his console.

No, sir the area where the life-signs are coming from at protected by the Starbase's shields Commander McCabe says as he reports to Captain Martin.

(USS Intrepid, main bridge, red alert)

Sir, I think I have an idea I've been reviewing Voyager's Delta Quadrant mission logs and there was one log entry that involved an Android that had a ship and it crippled Voyager when they tried to punch through the vessel's shields to transport Commander Torres out Commander Curtis says as she looks at Admiral Kira.

As I recall Tom used a shuttle to punch through the vessel's shields and beamed B'Elanna aboard, you want to do the same thing here says Typhuss as he looks at Commander Curtis.

I think I can tune the phasers to punch through their shields Commander Curtis says as she looks at Admiral Kira.

Its risky Commander, the Klingons might not give you a chance to get through their shields they could destroy the shuttle says Typhuss as he looks at Commander Curtis.

Typhuss I think I can get through with a Puddle Jumper I've been reading Voyager's mission reports and there was a mentioning of the Kazon punching through Voyager's shields allowing a shuttle to piece the outer hull, and that should be enough to get a strike team on the Starbase Captain Martin says on the main viewer.

Typhuss then agrees.
