A Priority Mission Change

After the strange events of yesterday, the Enterprise remained at the coordinates of our disappearing duplicates. We have taken aboard a few pieces of debris from the portal-opening probe (for further analysis), and we have stripped the damaged duplicate runabout for parts, before destroying the remainder of its hull. It was neither prudent to leave it abandoned in space, nor do we have room in our Main Shuttlebay for a third runabout.

With our scheduled missions completed, we were preparing to set course for a return trip to Alamo Station, when a commship arrived. Apparently, they had been trying to track us down for the last three days. The message they carried was urgent, and immediately passed on to Captain Picard. The message was confidential, however, it does change our mission, yet again.

Now, instead of returning to Alamo Station as planned, we are being redirected to Montgomery Base, a relatively new Starfleet outpost on a planet within five light years of our present location. We have uploaded a copy of our gathered mission data to the commship, and its crew will deliver the data to Alamo Station in our stead. We are already en route to Montgomery Base, and should arrive sometime tomorrow.
