As the Away Team moved to find shelter, the Avandar searched for some way to both disrupt the storm and regain contact with the team. Unfortunately, the best solution for both of those seemed to be to break up the storm directly - and hope that the crew on the planetoid were not caught in the backlash...
Regrettably, this appeared to prove a vain hope. Whilst the disruption of the storm was expected to cause some chaos, an energy release that left a crater where a mountain used to be, and even managed to propel debris far and hard enough to hit the Avandar's shields, was not foreseen. Subsequent scans of the area revealed no trace at all of the Away Team, and it was not hard to draw a rather dire conclusion about what had happened.
For the Away Team, there had been no concern about the blast since they had made a discovery all of their own: an intact, and operational, Iconian gateway. Travelling through it may not have been intentional, but it did keep them safe from harm when the storm - and the area they had been in - practically disintegrated. The downside was that they found themselves somewhere completely unknown - which, when they learned where they were, was perhaps not the best news they could have received.
Whilst the Away Team took what steps they could to stay out of trouble, having just found themselves on the Breen homeworld, the Avandar set about looking for any sort of clue as to what had happened on the planetoid. With much, if not all, of the sensor disruption now gone, they were able to get a much better look at the surface... but it was only when LtCmdr T'Lea disobeyed orders and beamed herself down to investigate that the best evidence began to come to light.
With the aid of a remote-piloted Workbee, she managed to locate the gateway - or rather the remains of it, since it had been badly damaged in the blast. At captain Vetri's instruction, she salvaged the most promising of the components so that the crew stood some chance of being able to isolate where their colleagues had been sent.
