After a good night's sleep thanks to the medication the nurse had given to
him, the first thing that attacked him on his shift was the gamma shift duty
officer. They had just been alerted by the computer of a fluctuation in the
warpcore matrix.
Gaalen reassured the man, saying he was taking care of it. He'd read the
report hastily and noticed that sensors could not precisely detect the fault
piece of equipment he decided that first thing was to shut down the warpcore,
allowing his team to investigate the problem further.
Secondly he called for a meeting with Xenai and Hawk Versey. He wanted her
to check the matter distribution manifolds and flow controlers with EPS
distribution checks and energy waste disposal with a team and Versey was to do
the same with the anti-matter system. Himself he knew what he would do, he just
needed to get his staff organized.
Once they where on their duties, Gaalen called up the bridge duty officer
and left a message for the ACO to be notified of the problem. He turned and saw
the engineers in his department buy at work, almost working at an urgent pace.
He grabbed a tricorder and opened the dilithium crystal chamber to verify
the alignment of the crystals. In a matter of minutes, he knew he was looking
the wrong way, there was nothing wrong.
What if his staff did not find anything out of place?
What if it was sabotage? He knew it could not happen like that, when the
previous day everything was running within acceptable parameters. He rubbed his
chin, thinking of the possibilities.
If it was, then the culprit was someone from the inside, on such a small
ship, an unknown individual did not go unoticed for long. Was someone trying to
delay their departure from Tetris II?
He chose to sit it out, try and find the source of the problem and wait for
his staff to report back to him on their findings, if any.
