another neutrino disruption scanners are picking up an object near their last
known coordinates this is a ship major there's something inside it some kind of
life-form are the Cardassian sensors picking it up they should be back in
line right now we have to assume they know everything we know yellow alert
secure ops beam it aboard mr. O'Brien but put it in a level 1 security field
aye sir Locking on
who are you
who are you it is corporeal a physical entity what did you say it is responding
to visual and auditory stimuli linguistic communication yes
linguistic communication are you capable of communicating with me
what are you my species is known as human I come from
a planet called Earth earth this is what my planet looks like
you and I are very different species it will take time for us to understand
what is this time
first officer's log stardate 46392.7 we're preparing to launch a rescue
mission to find commander Sisko but first our navigational sensors must be
recalibrated to work under the conditions reported by Lieutenant Dax it
is no ordinary wormhole my analysis suggests that it isn't even a natural
phenomena not natural you mean it was constructed it's very possible whoever
made the orbs also created this wormhole the Cardassians are leaving the position
on the course toward the denorios belt mr. O'Brien what would it take to move
this station to the mouth of the wormhole this isn't a starship major
we've got six working thrusters to power us and that's it
160 million kilometer trip would take two months it has to be there tomorrow
that's impossible say that wormhole might just reshape the future of this
entire quadrant the Bajoran have to stake a claim to it
and I have to admit that claim would be a lot stronger if there's a federation
presence to back it up could you modify the subspace field
output of the deflector generators just enough to create a low-level field
around the station so we could lower the inertial mess if you can make the
station lighter those six thrusters will be all the power we need this whole
station could break apart like an egg if it doesn't work even if it does work
we're still gonna need help from Starfleet once we get there the
enterprise is still the nearest starship it could reach us in two days we should
advise Starfleet that we will require their assistance
you have ops mr. O'Brien lieutenant you're with me aye sir you too doc time
to be a hero yes sir
