       the CSO.

       At that moment there was a loud shrill the echoed in the bay and

       John followed the XO phaser out andlooking around the whold time

       briefly as the loud shrill whistle sounded through the

       be, Maura thought the noise seemed familiar but until they got
       further into the ship or something was detected on the tricorder
       she couldn't be a hundred percent certain. " It reminds me of
       the forward manifolds when they overheat and malfunction but I
       could be wrong" she offered wanting to be useful.

       it is, but I think it's best we find out before too long, incase
       it's something that could harm us."

       John listed to both of the officers and looked at the XO and
       spoke. "Sir I agree with Ms. Sharpe, it maybe a Manifold like
       Ms. Stewart suggested or it could be somthing else." he said
       still looking around but staying close to the group.

       the Captain arrive. He looked some what scruffy as he had his
       sleeves rolled up and the zip slightly undone on his uniform
       jacket, a typical engineering thing. He was also quite surprised
       that the Captain was somewhat blunt about the situation. Jumping
       down from the roof of the lift, he replied "Captain, I am sure
       about these components, I don't know how old they are, but I can
       tell you they aren't a month old." Picking up a bracket from the
       turbolift floor, he showed it to the Captain continuing in a
       much softer voice, so only Captain Anderson could hear him "This
       bracket latches the bolts and runners to the cables. This is one
       of the components that broke and caused the lift to decent
       rapidly. I'd expect to see this on a ship that was probably
       nearing it's 5 yearly service."

       Deck 12 - Section 21B
       Anderson had noticed the Chief's breach of regulations, when it
       came to the wearing of his uniform. However John wasn't a fool,
       he knew how hot an Engineers job could be, especially cramped
       into a confined space. Likewise there'd been times in his own
       career, where it was impractical to wear the uniform properly.
       That said the Captain made no comment to Dan's appearance, as he
       understood it was 'one of those times'.
       The response from the Chief brought both of their attention to a
       component, that Howell had obviously removed from the turbolift.
       It didn't look quite right even to Anderson, who was not an
       Engineer, he couldn't put his finger quite on what was catching
       his attention. However the Chief was adamant about its condition
       and for all intents and purposes he was the expert, so that was
       enough for the Captain to take him at his word.
       Keep an equally low voice, John replied. "Is it just that or are
       any of the surrounding systems in a similar condition?"

       Chucking the bracket back into the turbolift, Dan maintained his
       low voice replying "Well I found what looked like a couple of re
       conditioned isolinear chips, which would explain why the
       magnetic distortion affected the computers."

       Maria was tempted to say something about Mr. Harriman calling
       her Ms. Sharpe, but decided now wasn't the time, so she just
       turned to Commander Brown.
       "Whatever it is, we should find out what it is." She stated. "I
       would possibly recommend splitting up into two teams, and then
       uniting in the middle, keeping comms open." She finished, hoping
       to help the Commander.

       Mess hall
       Josh walked into the mess hall of the Churchill. It's been a few
       days since the Andorian quarantine violation and the verdict
       that demoted him to the rank of Commander and put the Atlantis
       in drydock under strict quarantine.
       Captain Shepard in regards to you saving another vessel and her
       crew from death,  you put yourself and your crew in harms way.
       You safeguarded your alien crew,  however this does not change
       the fact that you disobeyed a direct order and violated a strict
       quarantine. You are hereby demoted to the rank of Commander. You
       are assigned to the Churchill with what ever posting she has.
       This is only temporary until either the Atlantis is cleared, or
       another ship is available but this punishmentwill last for a
       minimum of six months.
       Josh walked over to the replicator and sat down.  He thought he
       could see people watching him,  at one time he thought he heard
       someone laugh at him for the demotion, but he thought best to
       just let it go for now.

       Anderson sighed at what the Commander had said, he reached up
       and grabbed the bridge of his nose. "This doesn't sound good, I
       hope there is a reasonable explanation, such as some kind of
       spatial anomaly." Letting his nose go the Captain added. "Please
       do what you need to here Commander, I want a detailed report
       including the fitting logs of these parts." As the CO turned to
       walk back to the turbolift, he said over his shoulder. "This
       stays between the two of us for now Dan." On that he was gone.

       Mess Hall
       Brooke had spent the last few days in a kind of haze as she
       tried to adjust to what had happened although one thing was for
       certain and that had been her determination to stand by her
       former CO and to keep her family together. Nothing would keep
       her away from her husband especially now that she was almost 6
       and a half months pregnant and she didn't feel any guilt or
       anger towards those higher up and saw this as an opportunity to
       return to what she did best and rebuild coming back stronger
       than before. With Jacob being busy and her cravings on overload
       she had decided to grab something to eat before starting her
       shift on the Bridge. Walking into the mess hall she headed for
       one of the replicators and ordered a burger with all of the
       works, fries and fresh orange juice then as she picked up her
       tray smiled when she saw Josh at one of the tables and went over
       to him. " Mind if I join you ?" she asked.

       Josh looked up when he heard Brooke's voice asking to join him.
       "Of course comm...." he had to stop himself.  "Of course
       Lieutenant." Josh knew she should only have been brought down to
       Lieutenant Commander, but there was no available positions on
       the churchill for that rank and with her being pregnant she
       wanted to be close to her husband.  "So how's everyone adjusting
       to my mistake?" Josh asked with a bitter sound in his voice.

       Josh smiled back at her.  "I just hope that the Atlantis will be

       years.  It's a strange adjustment. How is Jacob taking his new
       role as assistant chief engineer?" Josh asked before taking a
       bite of hours burger.
