       "Yes Captain I'll inform you straightaway " Morgan replied
       wondering what had happened as Sickbay hadn't been that busy
       lately and now they had a patient with an as yet unknown disease
       and the new Security Chief on his way not that it was her place
       to ask but to simply treat their patients and give them the best
       care possible.

       On a display screen at his station, Ensign Oskin watched a
       visual feed of the Type 7 shuttle being towed out of the main
       shuttlebay on deck 4 by a workpod that had come over from
       Starbase 378. He watched as it cleared the area between the
       massive warp nacelles of USS Atlantis before the replacement
       shuttle arrived on its own power and keenly manoeuvred into
       view, then approached the main shuttlebay as directed shuttlebay
       operations. Even though it had been looked over by personnel at
       Starbase 378, once it was aboard, technicians from USS Atlantis
       would give it an additional inspection before it would be placed
       on the active service roster.
       Sliding the visual to one side, Alexander focussed on other
       resupplying tasks. Once USS Atlantis was under way again, she
       would have the theoretical capability to remain on mission for
       up to three years independently without having to resupply.

       Oskin Alexander reviewed the information available to him on his
       console. The past 72 hours had been used efficiently to resupply
       and to achieve more comprehensive maintenance on certain system
       than what would have been possible in deep space.
       Notwithstanding the fact that the crew had not actually been
       briefed on a new mission or their next destination, the general
       sense onboard was that departure was imminent. Alexander glanced
       again over his shoulder and narrowed his eyes at the First
       Officer and the injured Lieutenant Harriman, then he looked back
       at the plethora of scheduled tasks on his console.
       "Commander Edwards," he spoke out, addressing the First Officer.
       He hesitated a moment to speak his mind, but he turned around
       again and the sight of the gold-collared Lieutenant and the
       lingering impression left by the scuffle that had occured
       earlier hardened his resolve: "Will this incident..." his eyes
       darted towards Lieutenant Harriman, two senior Security Officers
       had been compromised and it was plausible that this would hamper
       the operational abilities of USS Atlantis, "...postpone our
       departure?"
       He waited half a second and indicated towards his console, "If
       so, we could make optimal use of our stay at Starbase 378 and
       perform more maintenance tasks."

       Brooke looked away from Lieutenant Harriman when Ensign Oskin
       addressed her and spoke of his concerns regarding the incident
       that had just occurred and it's effect on the ship. " We're
       still scheduled to depart within the next 48 hours Ensign, I
       have every faith that maintenance tasks will be completed by
       then" she replied with a small smile " As for what has just
       happened it will be dealt with before we leave".

       Ensign Oskin watched the first officer as she spoke and nodded
       at the end of her explanation. "Understood, Commander."
       48 hours was ample time to clear many of these tasks on the
       schedule without incapacitating the ship through intensive Level
       1 diagnostics or physically taking the ship half apart for
       maintenance. He scrolled through the list and prioritised some
       items that could resolved automatically. Others required
       sentient supervision in order to achieve acceptable results.
       "Bridge to Commander..." upon selecting one of the tasks, he
       opened a channel to the Science lab but he suddenly realised a
       new Science Officer had been assigned to USS Atlantis and he had
       completely forgotten the man's name. Alexander quickly looked it
       up before continuing, "Tekin." He took note of the ethnicity of
       the Science Officer's name, "We would like to commence
       calibrations on the long-range sensors through the Astrometric
       lab. Is your department in a position to coordinate?"
       While he waited for a reply, he caught Ensign Kelvan in the
       corner of his eye. Realising what other maintenance tasks
       remained outstanding and that he could use some help, he
       motioned him to come over, whispering, "Do you have a moment,
       mister Kelvan?"

       Bridge
       Ensign Kelvan had decided not to appear distracted all through
       the altercation.  He only turned his attention momentarily when
       Lt Harriman was attacked.  But once Lt Shepard was
       incapacitated, he simply returned his line of sight back to his
       LCARS terminal.  Of course, his keen sense of hearing had picked
       up every conversation and movement.  As a junior officer, it was
       not his business to know the internal machinations of those
       above him in rank.  He tucked his less-dominant arm behind his
       back and finger-danced across the surface.

       Kelvan turned sideways to look, not recognizing his room mate's
       voice due to the lower tone.  From the corner of his eye, he
       locked his screen and then stepped down to where Ensign Oskin
       was.  "Ensign Oskin, may I be of assistance?"

       As he continued his conversation with Commander Tekin, Alexander
       indicated a display on his console for the Vulcan engineer to
       review. Most of the firing protocols for both phaser and torpedo
       systems had received software upgrades and Lieutenants Harriman
       and Shepard had been about to run diagnostics and calibrations
       when the incident happened. It seemed in the best interest of
       the ship and its crew to continue with these tasks despite both
       those officers having been incapacitated.
       He pointed at these tasks in the list on his console and then
       indicated towards Kelvan, then the Tactical station behind the
       Captain's chair and changed his body language to a pleading
       "Could you?"

       The Vulcan nodded, "consider it done Ensign." He walked back up
       and settled himself at the apex of the waist-level 'arch' of the
       bridge.  He input his authentication codes.  A few seconds
       later, the interface faded grey and an authorisation warning
       message appeared.
       Warning: Insufficient privileges to perform task.  To override,
       input overriding officer's IDENT code and stand by...
       Ensign Kelvan retrieved a list of all authorised personnel and
       selected Oskin, Ensign Alexander.
       A few seconds later, the request was redirected to the Bajoran's
       station.  Kelvan watched, noting the operations manager's
       reaction to his request.  Almost an instant later, the response
       came back and the tactical console was accessible, though only
       just the sub-routines that he needed to perform his task.  The
       first thing to do was to establish the extent of Lt Shepard's
       progress.  He found the tactical officer's command entry log and
       determined that Mr Shepard had initiated several... unusual
       command sub-routines, most of which were seemingly unrelated to
       the firing protocols, or even tactical systems.  This meant that
       he had to initiate the task from scratch.
       =/.= Ensign Kelvan to main engineering, I am initiating a
       preliminary status assessment of the firing protocols to
       determine integrity of the recently upgraded software.  Once
       this is done, I will proceed as per Atlantis software
       installation specification SYS-SPEC-A-15.  Please acknowledge.

       Docking Bay onto USS Atlantis
       Reava had just gotten the news of being assigned as the new head
       physician temporarily. The moment she entered onto the ship she
       was to report to sick bay immediately. Not one to waste time she
       walked quickly and soon started jogging as she could read the
       troubled minds of those on the ship, for it was hard not to due
       to the stress and worry they were all going through and while it
       was not a habit of hers to pry she couldn't help but overhear
       surface thoughts. Which that explained the temporary hike in
       position.
       Sickbay
       Entering through the doors of sickbay she saw that the staff
       were already busy and went up to one of the nurses and instead
       of introducing herself Reava immediately fell into the role of
       doctor. "What do we have?"

       Ensign Morgan looked up from the PADD when a woman in teal
       approached her and asked about their patient, she didn't
       recognise her but was aware that there had been an influx of new
       officers and immediately replied. " Lieutenant Knowdi Shepard
       one of our Security officers was brought in sedated after
       causing an incident on the Bridge, we believe its some kind of
       Klingon disease affecting his mentality but so far we haven't
       been able to identify which one" she said offering the PADD. "
       We're also waiting for the person he attacked Lieutenant
       Harriman to arrive and be checked over".
