===== Deck 3, USS Gott =====
+TAPS+ Guzman to cadet C'el, find me Commander Palmer and let her escort down to deck three, Science labs. Guzman out +TAPS+
Only then he noticed that a majority of the third deck looked quite damaged ... and he remebered that it must have been this deck where 2LT. Scott met his unfortunate end in battle with the X!Chi. Turning to Oriana he said: "Lets see what's left of the science labs ..."
When Terek finally got aboard the Gott, It gave him a little trouble to find where what is. In fact he felt like first week on the Chimera, when he unvolunteerily strode one into the engineering and once to transporter room, even when he was looking for the Astrometrics. Now he had a same problem. He was looking for the science labs, because he expected that he would find there his supperior officer. But when he for a fourth time strode into empty quaters, he sighted... {Damn... I hate this...} But then he realized that probably it will be some sign from the prophets, so he used the opportunity for a very quick sonic shower and then used replicator to recyclate remains of his uniform and replicating a new one. {Ah, this is perfect, finally it won't be cold around here...} He thought as he put on his new green shirt and jacket for both of them were suffered very badly on the Chimera. After a short smile in a mirror he went of the empty quaters looking around if !
noone had sen him. With a bit satisfaction he asked computer where the science labsa are and then went to turbolift to get there. When he exited the lift on the designated deck, he had to stop for a moment as he thought that he's back on the Chimera, because several forcefields were active and whole place looked like after someone was playing with the explosives. {Dear Prophets, what has happened here? } he thought as he walked the damaged corridor. In one bend he saw group of engineers working on something.
"Hey, hello..." He said with smile to them. "Mind if I ask you what happened here? I've just got here from Chimera and this is a bit of shock..."
One of the engineers interrupted him. "Hey buddy, Well it is said that someone played with some 'toys' here and it went out of control, but most of the systems is all right, so don't worry."
"All right, thanks."
He answered and continued his way to the labs. After a few minutes he was in place. Surprisingly, he's found Alex in there, completely in a new dress. Seems that he wasn't only one whom Prophets gave that idea. After a warm welcome from her, he asked.
"Do you know where Lt. Oriana is? We should report to her for orders."
"I have no idea, I've been waiting here for her. It is the best I can do now. When we transported, we've began with checking the lab equipment and database entries to find something about that temporal studies the Gott was performing, but it seems that all have been encrypted and are available only to senior officers."
With those words she gave him PADD with some info. Terek read it and nodded.
"All right, I think we should find Oriana and tell her."
And after that he left the room and went looking for his superior officer. When he exited the lab he asked computer. "Computer, locate Lieutenant Oriana." Answer came immediately [Lieutenant Oriana is in the turbolift on deck four] {Right so now in which one...} But his thought were interrupted as he saw two figures emmerging from the nearest turbolift. It was Oriana and commander Guzman. Terek approached them.
"Hello sir, madam. I was looking for you." he nodded to both senior officers. "I've just arrived from the Chimera, but Alex has been for some time and she told me that they were unable to get to most of the science logs. Authorization for high ranking officers only. It may prove usefull if we can get access to it. Oh and here is the perliminary report of the damage on this deck. People in the labs made it, but it seems that some engineers are already here and working on those problems. I've asked what happened and they said that someone was 'playing' with eps relays."
And with that he handed padd to commander and waited for response.
Shane took the PADD and glanced briefly at the content. After a little moment he shook his head. "Ensign, you see that the Gott's temporal research is marked as top secret. I dont have the authority to unlock such files and even if I would, I could not just unlock those files for everyone on board to have a look inside. This stuff is quite dangerous for anyone here present to know about." After a small pause he continued: "I think there is only one person who I believe has the authority to read those files ... Commander Palmer and only one other person is rank high enough to unlock those files ... General Bretam."
Shane's face showed clear signs of annoyance as he continued: "The General just left the Gott and Commander Palmer is not here at the moment ..." looking directly at Terek he continued, "and therefore we have to find an another way how to get this ship home"
{Wonderful, now it seems that we'll have nothing to read... Damn.. I can't sleep withou a good book...} thought Terek sarcasticly when commander said that it won't be most probably possible to get to those logs., but he jus nodded in response and then added: "All right sir, we'll try to figure it out by ourselves. But it might help if we could get a survey access to ship's monitoring systems. If there are made some modiffications we should be able to compare status of the ship's systems in present with the specifications from the original Nova class design. But for that we'll need that access. Mainly to navigation systems, deflector dish systems and we should as well know if htere has been done some unusual modifications of the ship's energy distribution systems."
When Terek saw the surprised look on the Shane's face he quickly added. "But don't worry sir, it'll be a limited access only, we just need to watch, not to play with anything..."
Shane thought for a moment before noding to the young Bajoran Ensign: "All right Ensign, I'll see what I can do for you but dont hope for anything better then a very limited access. You have passed the SSF trainig as well and you are sure aware that those data are calsified and not for your eyes, so please limit your contact with those data to a minimum" A slight grin appeared on Shane's face: "Anyway, I do expect some results from your research shortly"
Terek gave commander a short bow and then he strode off back to the labs.
Shane then turned to Oriana and said: "Well, you go better after him Lieutenant. We need to find a way home evry soon and I dont think that anything else then a joint effort of the whole science department and Commander Palmer will bring us home. And Lieutenant" Shane paused for a second, "I was not joking about those data. Its high classified and I am QUITE sure SSF Comm wont be happy about anyone of us knowking too much about their top secret research project ... so use those data as little as possible."
Shane saw Oriana noding and then added: "Dismissed Lieutenant"
