On board the Enterprise, Serial Number NCC 1701-E
I turned to Lt. Commander Data and asked "Any sign of the Borg that we were following?"
"No sir they simply entered this system and…Vanished. I will continue sweeping the system with our long, and short range sensors until we find them."
"Very well keep me posted, I'll be in my Ready Room." And with that I turned and walked over to one of the doors off the Bridge, walked in and sat down at my desk. Several thoughts were bouncing around in my head, but the most prominent of which was what the Borg were doing out here? And also I wondered why WE were the ones to pursue them, we had just recently gotten back from our trip through time following the army of Borg that had attacked the Federation, and the Enterprise-E was fresh from it's repairs after being more than half taken over by the same group of them.
Just then there was a knock at the door, "Come in," I called
Riker strode in and immediately said "Captain, we've found them,"
"Very good," I said getting up and striding back out to the bridge. "Where were they?"
Data responded "They landed on a nearby planet, They are on this landmass," and with those words he pulled up an image of Alagaesia.
"Where are they exactly?" I asked studying the map.
"The energy signiture is strongest…Here." He responded zooming in on Helgrind outside Dras'Leona. "Unfortunately I cannot get an exact measure of how many are in there."
"What about the planet itself?" I asked "Any sign of warp flight or the like,"
"No sir, no warp traces were detected by the sensors, and no sign of any large cities."
"Very well, we'll have to send an away team down. Worf, Data, your with me. Riker you have the bridge." I turned to head towards the Turbolift then paused, turned back towards Riker and said, "Oh and Riker,"
"Yes sir," he responded.
"Try not to get the ship blown up while I'm gone." I stated with a small smile.
"I'll try not to sir."
Without another word the three of us left the bridge, met up with a security team in one of the transporter rooms and headed down to the planet's surface.
So there you go. The Enterprise is currently above Alagaesia, Can anyone guess what Picard is referring to at the end of the chapter? Review and tell me.
