- Medical Bay –

Back down in the Medical Bay….

"Have you had a chance to decode the medical files you found?" Sterling asked Cahill.

"I am not sure if other crew members can be revived but I order Engineering to keep power going to the ones that have power just in case. I have logged all my information about there into the main computer and have sent that much to Starbase 39 Sierra. They are bringing others that have more experience with them than I do. It may be they have found other ships and have kept it under wraps to do research."

*Pause*

"I have found that the tubes have a delay feature in them to allow for someone to activate it and then have time to enter it. It appears to have up to a 10 minute delay window as I show her the controls that operate it. It does appear to that if put into a cryo-tubes and a problem occurred in say Engineering it would open the tubes of personnel to make the repair to that section. I also notice the shields over them offered some resistance to phaser fire for example but could be penetrated with several hits in the same place. "

*Pause*

"They were also able to be opened automatically to allow different crew members to get up and relive the ones that was on duty to rest. Or if attacked to awaken all crew members to be able to defend the ship if necessary." Doctor Cahill finished.

Tapping her Commbadge =/\=Sterling to Captain Somers=/\=

=/\= Somers here Commander =/\=

=/\=Captain the Nimitz is in tow we are on course for star base 39 Sierra at 1/2 impulse power we should arrive with an ETA of two weeks at present speed. Lt Sheela and a damage control team are still on board restoring what systems they can. =/\=

=/\= Understood Commander, thank you Somers out =/\=

- Captain’s Ready Room –

Jasmine had returned to her Ready Room and had been taking the quiet moment to catch up on her paperwork, she was also looking at the transfer requests that were on her interface, there was currently two. A species she had encountered only once before during the mission in the Hydaransz System, she looked over the names and was about to monologue when her Commbadge sounded, she tapped it to make the connection.

=/\=Sterling to Captain Somers=/\=

=/\= Somers here =/\=

=/\=Captain the Nimitz is in tow we are on course for star base 39 Sierra at 1/2 impulse power we should arrive with an ETA of two weeks at present speed. Lt Sheela and a damage control team are still on board restoring what systems they can. =/\=

=/\= Understood Commander, thank you Somers out =/\=

After that she closed the Commbadge down and studied the names again.

“Hmm a Lieutenant Ira Walon who was a Isiseian humanoid, a species that looked for the most part human, but were shape changers” Jasmine began a monologue.

She had read an Intelligence report of one that was reportedly working with a Gary Seven back during Kirks time, the Aide to Gary Seven vanished when he did, now here was one with qualifications in Counselling, she saw the bio and service record and she signed off on that one, then came the Krazokian male a Lieutenant Krezak.

“Hmm.. I think I will put him as Chief Tactical Officer, not had one of his species on this ship for sometime, will scare most of the crew” She said to herself and also signed off on his transfer. With that done she returned to her other paperwork and got herself caught up on it, she felt a slight lurch.

“Ah we are underway” She said and left her Ready Room and entered the bridge, the fact that Maia had got things moving so quickly while not on the bridge impressed her greatly as she sat in the center seat. “Mr. Barker what is new status on Starbase 39 Sierra ETA?”

Without looking the Ensign answered “Current speed and accounting for the extra weight we can do warp two max and thus are about two weeks from said Starbase”

“Thank you Ensign” She turned to her Comms Officer “El tee update the Starbase on our ETA and let them know what we are bringing in, I have no doubt that there will be masses of Techs and Scientists waiting to go over the Nimitz with a fine tooth comb” She said then pressed the button on her chair arm.

=/\= Somers to Sterling =/\=

=/\=Sterling here=/\=

=/\= Arrange a fitting funeral for the dead of the ESS Nimitz, it will take us two weeks to get to the Starbase, we will give them a burial in space, we will be passing a blue giant in four days approximately, we will halt long enough to do the funeral then we return to Starbase 39 Sierra =/\=

=/\=Understood Captain, I will take care of everything.=/\=

=/\= Thank You Commander and yes let Commander Oda and her companion know of what is happening, the dead need to be laid to rest, Somers out =/\= she said and closed the link, she was about to speak to Barker when the man spoke.

“I have that blue giant on long range scanners Captain, it will be done” He said without looking back.

Jasmine looked at the back of his head with an evil glare, it seemed she was becoming too predictable.

- Lower Decks – USS Tomcat –

Four days Maia thought. She would enlist the help of Commander Oda as she didn't know any of the crew personally. Maia wondered exactly how many bodies were on that ship.

Maia pressed the COMM button to sick bay.

=/\=Sterling to Cahill=/\=

Tapping her Commbadge =/\= Lieutenant Cahill here, what is it Commander? =/\=

=/\=Doc were gonna need to get the bodies off the Nimitz to give them a proper burial in space we are four days away form a blue white giant. Get a team together and have them transported to the cargo deck, do you have any idea how many there might be?=/\=

=/\= Understood Commander it will be done, Cahill out =/\= after closing the link with Lieutenant Commander Sterling Cahill got to work.
