Cameron led the Challenger’s CMO through to the airlock and they made their way up to Ops, which didn’t take long. He really didn’t have a lot to say, though it was probably obvious that he thought this was a waste of time. And for him it really was. After all, he had other things he should be doing right now, and scanning for something he knew without a doubt wasn’t on the station was far low on his list of priorities.

When they arrived, he gave a wave to Captain Alshoi who was talking with one of the science Lieutenants. She gave a nod of her head to acknowledge them, though for the moment went back to her conversation. She was half-Betazoid and an empath and knew that there was nothing urgent, though she did note the undercurrent of irritation from Russo. She felt for the officer with him as he could be… difficult at times, but was remarkable at his job.

CMO Rahm Vesta wracked her brain and tried not to stare as she followed Russo through the space to Ops. She clutched her earworn copy of Terror in Gallitep to her chest reflexively. Things had progressed a long way from her retrieving this book from the Cargo Bay and trying to snoop on the area where a crate had sent a crewmember into a picket dimension in her predecessor CMO Dr. Frankenstein’s last cadet cruise.

“Alright,” he said as they came to stand in front of the main operational bank of consoles. “I’m going to start a scan for the three variants you mentioned. Anything else we should look for while we’re at it? A scan this big is going to take time so we might as well do it all now.”

“If you’re going to search for trilithium, tekasite, and protomatter, you might as well include strange instances of dilithium as well–since it can be refined to trilithium. I’m talking areas where one wouldn’t normally find it.”

When Vesta took over the CMO’s Office from Dr. Frankenstein, she read all of the previous doctor’s logs and had mentioned to several crewman that it was strange how a ship like the Challenger of all places would experience such unusual events.

She paused. “Lieutenant Commander. And this is just a hunch, but scan for any anomolous readings of tetryon radiation, too. If thats alright. Let me know if I can help and jump on a station.”

She muttered, “I was Resistance, after all.”

Russo shot her a look, though whether he heard her comment or not was hard to tell. “Depends on what you mean by anomalous. There is an experiment going on on the station that does generate tetryon radiation, but that’s highly supervised and contained. Even if there was small leakage, we have sensor alerts set up in such a case.”

Vesta’s heart thumped in her chest. Maybe it was just a coincidence. Tetryon radiation experiments on a science-sentric part of a station weren’t unheard of–but the coincidence of it all… Frankly, it un-nerved her.

He gestured to the station beside him. “I’m going to start the full scan. I’ll start it to scan key and sensitive areas first and then fan out from there. If you want to scan the immediate areas around the station, that should cover all our bases.”

“Absolutely,” Dr. Rahm said. She approached the station and eased into the console with a few unsteady taps.

“I admit, this system is a little newer and more sensative than some Bajoran systems we used back in my time. It was practically two tin cans, aluminum foil, and fourteen ions strun together with some hope. Scanning Operations and Storage first.”

She pecked the screen with two fingers.

“So does Jupiter Station have a… working relationship with the Challenger often, Lt. Commander? Say, do we often do passenger transport or, say, cargo drops to the station?” she asked innocently. “This is my first mission aboard. Scanning the Labs as well, just in case.”
