"All Fleet ships this is Captain Melanie Woodcroft, TFXO. Form all around the gate and protect it! Agamemnon and Braveheart aft of the gate, Independence and the rest forward! Protect those fighters as well! Lets move!" she ordered sitting in her chair. "go to formation!" she added. " I also want a count off of all ships in the area! Open comms to all!" she ordered.
"You heard the Lady," said Zack as he sat down in his Command Chair. "Mr. Haven, send confirmation to Captain Woodcroft that her orders are recieved...Mr. Kingsley, take us to the front of the line. Mr. Skal, full scan of whatever it is we're facing."
Zack waited a moment for his crew to carry out his orders and get him the requested information. The Ops Chief put the signatures on screen, but it did not really help because of how far away they were. He just hoped that the sensors would be better at identifying this possible threat.
"Captain," said Ensign Skal from the Ops console. "We have eleven distinct signatures, along with some unusual tachyon readings. The vessels warp signatures make them out to be Cardassian warships."
Great, thought Zack. The return of the Spoon-Heads. How in the name of Gre'thor did they get the location of this deeply classified facility?
"Hailing frequencies," said Zack, getting up from his chair.
"No response," said Skal from Ops.
"Will they receive if we transmit?"
"Yes Captain. They can hear us, they just choose not to respond."
"Open a channel, Ensign."
"Open, Sir."
"Approaching vessels, this is Captain Zack Gillibrand of the Federation Starship Independence. You have entered restricted space. Reverse course immediately or we will be forced to retaliate. I repeat, reverse course immediately or we will retaliate. This is your only warning."
"No resopnse," said Ensign Skal after waiting several seconds.
"The Cardassians should have learned by now that the Federation likes to keep its best toys a secret. Coordinate defensive pattern with the Thunderstorm tactical officer. And bust out the quantum torpedos...if the Cardassians want to play hardball, the Independence is ready."
