Back We Go

Mission: Gamma Quadrant
Location: Gamma Quadrant

The Sunfire had completed her essential repairs, the crew had had a chance to blow off some steam and the Bajoran colonists they had rescued were eager to return to Bajor. Captain Kaylen Rhenora sat comfortably in the centre chair on the bridge, legs lightly crossed and a cup of steaming coffee in her hand. It was time to take another run through the wormhole, hopefully this time it would be smooth sailing.

"Helm, turn us about, set course for the Wormhole and DS9. Hopefully we get through without being tossed like a tin can in a thunderstorm this time" Her voice held a lightness that cut through any tension that was present, and her less than stellar use of Earth vernacular caused a smile or two.

The mighty Sunfire took a few moments to turn on her axis, carefully towing the damaged Bajoran freighter behind her as she did so. The colonists were insistent on keeping their ship, hoping to explore other worlds in an effort to start a new colony once they had it repaired.

" Eta to the wormhole 2 hours" Ops announced as they moved slowly towards the celestial temple, not straining the engines lest they undo some of the hasty repairs the engineering team had done. Softly does it was the key this time.

" Very good, keep us steady at half impulse. Ops, send a message through to DS9 advising of our arrival time and request yet more technicians to assist with further repairs" She ordered, a smirk tugging at her lips "I'm sure Captain Kira will have them standing by already if I know her well"

Soon they would be home again, another brief visit to Bajor maybe, then back into the Gamma Quadrant to continue their mission.
