The search for the freighter commences in earnest with Lt.Cdr. [[Alieth]], LT [[Kammus Corelli|Corelli]] and Ensigns [[Luxa Lorana|Lorana]] and [[Marty Tucker|Tucker]] setting to work on improving sensor efficiency, as well as making a workable grid for probe deployment. Numerous runabouts are also dispatched along the probes to improve the ''Ronin'''s chances at locating any freighters in need. While reading the data being collected by the probes, the science team locate a pair of warp signatures, with one likely originating from the damaged freighter, as well as a garbled, but strangely anomalous, distress signal that Ensign [[Luxa Lorana|Lorana]] suggests patching through to the Bridge. | The search for the freighter commences in earnest with Lt.Cdr.

Meanwhile, Lt.Cdrs. [[Toryn Raga|Raga]] and [[Kirsty Lee Carpenter|Carpenter]], Lt. [[V'Len Kel|Kel]] and Ensigns [[Maverick Kenmore|Kenmore]] and [[C'iri Mingan Hopkins|Hopkins]] congregate in Cargo Bay 5 to examine the debris that had been brought on board. Upon closer examination, however, they realize that the located debris does not originate from just ''one'' type of vessel, but multiple different kinds. More notably, however, is the fact that the damage to the debris does not correlate to conventional weaponry, and all the debris is not hull debris, indicating internal damage to the vessel(s) the debris originated from. Upon closer examination by Lt.Cdr. [[Kirsty Lee Carpenter|Carpenter]], a piece of the debris crumbles into dust in her hands when she applies pressure, and this brings forth a troubling question: | {{Quote box | ||

Then, the teams are interrupted by Cdr. [[Karrod Niac|Niac]]'s voice on the intercom, calling all Senior Staff to the Bridge. The ''Ronin'' has encountered a peculiar vessel, a [[Tholian]] one, and this one is definitely ''not'' in distress. It starts approaching them as the ''Ronin'' staff discusses how to approach this development, when all crewmembers start to feel an odd and uncomfortable sensation building up. Just as the Commanding Officer recalls his former host's discovery of Sencha Radiation, and how it felt in her final moments as it killed her, the ''Ronin'' is violently rocked by a weaponized pulse from the Tholian vessel. Cdr. [[Karrod Niac|Niac]] is wounded in the attack as he calls for Red Alert, and the Tholian vessel breaks contact and departs the system. | Then, the teams are interrupted by Cdr.

|quote =''XO...since I suspect the Doctor is about to order me to sickbay you have the conn. Keep us at red alert until we're certain that was the only enemy vessel in the system. ::Karrod winced as he stood and threw an arm around the Doctor's shoulders for support.:: <br>Find that freighter and keep us in a defensive posture until we figure out our next move. They sucker-punched us in the first round. I don't intend to let them do it again. Check in with your people and make damage reports to the XO. It'll take more than a shove to take the Ronin out of this fight. Starfleet wanted us to find out what's going on out here...looks like we'll have a lot to tell them.''|source = [https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-ronin/c/g75JUldQC5Q Cdr.
