=== Captains Quarters === Keylor sat at his desk waiting for Walsh to arrive. He tossed a spring bal back and forth between his two hands, seeming impatient in waiting. When the door chimed, he barked out, "COME!" He waited for the new officer to emerge in to his quarters. As Jack became visible, and as he approached Keylor at his desk, Keylor counted in his head to 3 and then throw the spring ball at jack. Jack had been summoned to see the Colonel, he wasn't exactly too sure what it was about, but then again subconsciously he knew. Someone had probably cried to the CO about something he'd done. As he stepped through the door Bretam threw a ball at him, reacting quickly he caught it in a rather cliche manner. "I was reviewning the ships logs form the exercises you had conducted. And I saw something I was quite puzzled by. Do you know what that is?" Keylor asked Jack. "Nothing springs to mind, Colonel..."Jack stood fast at attention. Keylor tapped on his desk consol and brought up a recording of where Jack had shot the CEO. The recording only had visual, no audio, but from what Keylor had seen with his seasoned vetrans eye, he was sure that this was no common mistake. He turned the disply on his desk around so that Jack could see it. He then pointed to the monitor, "Does this refresh your memory?" He asked sarcasticly. "That...."he paused. "Was an Error in Perception." Keylor spun the display back around and then leaned back in his chair. He found himself sizing Jack up once again. "You have experience, Right? As a security cheif? and you ahve gone through special forces training. So why in 3 seconds can you not tell the difference from the ships chief engineering officer and an intruder?" He asked in a skeptical tone. Keylor was curious to hear the new ODA commanders response. "The Area was hostile Colonel. The Recording does not have audio, where I clearly state to the Individual In question to Freeze, My Instructions weren't followed, and In Battle I'm sure you're aware that a split second or is all the enemy needs. Also, Lieutenant Blackburn was out of comission, if he wanted to leave the Games and return to his normal duties, He should have notified me." Keylor watched Jack as he expplained his actions. He tried to keep a blank look on his face but deep in side, he was not quite buying it. He then looked back and forth form the display and Jack. {There was pleanty of light, Blackburs face was clearly visable in the recording, no apparent obstructions.} A slight barely noticable frown passed over his lips. He leaned forward and shut off the display. Keylor folded his hands together and placed them on the desk infront of him. "In or out of the game, was there any cause to shoot your own crew mate? Surely the Lieutenant was not on the intruders side, and there appeared to be no evidence that he was under duress." Keylor watched Jack for his next reply. "There are always casualties in battle Colonel, I don't have to tell you that. I was clear in my instructions. My Team will back me up on that." Keylor leaned back in his chair and slid his hands off of the desk and in to his lap. "Well Captain, I would atleast suggest that you get to know more of the crew. I would not want to hear of another such incident when we are really being boarded." Keylor thought of the recent invasion of sub-space species and was thankful that all the injures were caused by the aliens and not his careless crew. "Aye Sir!" Jack replied in the fashion that had been drilled into him. === MCaptain Jack Walsh ODA Commander USS Chimera & Colonel Bretam Keylor Commanding Officer USS Chimera
