       I can confirm that they are Benzite's. The ship looks to be a
       small freighter of some kind. The interference is too much to
       say exactly what kind of freighter. I also can't tell if there
       is anything wrong with the ship through the interference." She
       finished, struggling to get much more information. "To get a
       better reading we'd need to get even closer." She added.

       Maura turned to face the Chief of Ops when he spoke to her and
       thought about his question, everything until they approached the
       edge of the asteroid field had appeared normal apart from the
       odd glitch but put that down to where they are. " Nothing major
       Lieutenant, there was a couple of glitches but I compensated for
       those as we approached the asteroid field". When Captain
       Anderson then spoke she turned round " Aye Captain " she said
       turning back " reversing engines now " she added moving swiftly
       until the ship responded and reversed to a safe distance. As she
       did that she heard Lieutenant Dyson behind her " What about a
       shuttle rather than risk taking the ship in ?" she suggested.

       "Aye Sir" B'Ozian answered the Captain before nodding towards
       the helm in acknowledgement. He reached forward and opened the
       comms channels =A=This is the USS Churchill, we are picking you
       up on our sensors are you in need of assistance? =A= he hailed
       as ordered and repeating the message on multiple frequencies as
       he tried to make contact.
       "Captain, Either they are not getting the message or unable to
       answer but i am not receiving any response" he looked briefly
       over to the Captain and wondered about the idea of taking a
       shuttle into the field.

       The whole situation was odd to say the least, why was a Benzite
       ship tucked in amongst the rocks. The only thing he could
       imagine were the magnetic forces had pulled the ship in, but
       would that have kept the ship in one piece? He took a breath and
       thought about the situation some more. "I don't understand this
       situation at all, a freighter in the asteroid field and yet she
       seems to be in one piece despite these magnetic forces." John
       said. So why was the Churchill suffering from some kind of
       affliction?

       'A shuttle' The words rung out in the Captain's head.
       The Benzite ship was clearly much smaller and more compact than
       the Churchill, that could possibly in Anderson's eyes make the
       Benzite vessel safer in the belt. "Opinions people, could a
       smaller ship survive longer inside the belt, with the magnetic
       forces?"

       "Understood Lieutenant." Anderson replied turning back to the
       viewer and observing the ship visually.
       The Captain didn't have to be an Engineer to know how magnetic
       forces could affect the transporters, that gave the shuttle idea
       more credit. "X.O." Anderson called.

       "Sir. I don't know if it would be a good idea to send a shuttle
       in. The Churchill has a stronger force to pull away than the
       freighter, but a shuttle is much smaller than the freighter. If
       there is something holding the Benzite freighter in place then
       sending something smaller in may endanger the people in the
       shuttle..." Maria paused and shook her head then continuing "I
       don't understand the situation at all and although it may be
       dangerous, sending a shuttle in may be our only option." She
       finished waiting for other reports.

       "I don't understand either Lieutenant, a shuttle might be the

       sitting himself down. "The asteroid field is too dense to take
       the Churchill into." He turned his seat right to face Brown.
       "I'd value your opinion here Commander?"

       John stood at his station and listened to the officers around
       him and kept a close eye on the unknown ship. He already had
       weapons and shields on standby incase the order was given or iff
       they were surprised. John remember during the war the Dominion
       would use unknown vessels from the Gamma Quadrant ambush
       Federation ships. He did not believe that was what this was but
       he knew they should be ready. He missed the days growing up when
       Starfleet would get to expolor without every having to arm
       weapons for ships they only had to destory asteroids. He longed
       to know what that was like, but since the war you could never be
       to careful with the unknown and he hated that fact.

       Maria rattled her brain trying to think of an alternative, but
       since they could not use the transporters to get too and from
       the ship, it looked as though the danger may have been their
       only option to get a closer look and Maria had a feeling that
       the risk would be worth it, but that all depended on the CO and
       XO's decision.
       Looking over the information on the screen, the pilot of the
       shuttle would be able to navigate through, but they were
       probably going to have to do it without the help of the computer
       systems, depending on the interference. Though to be fair Maria
       had no idea about the helm so she could have quite easily have
       been thinking wrong.

       Anderson nodded in agreement to Brown.
       "Assemble your away team Commander, take Commander Howell with
       you. If that ship is in any kind of trouble, he should be able
       to get her moving if possible."
