Johnson looked around the shuttle bay. “Status report, everyone.”

-Captain Johnson, CO

Aliss had her tricorder out. “Residual chroniton readings but nothing specific. The portal is gone, sir.” Her nose curled at the smoking hulk of the shuttle. “And one casualty in the form of a shuttle.”

Snapping the tricorder away she moved to a wall to find a fire suppressor unit - bay sized - and began to unroll the hose assembly. It was meant for large scale blazes, usually in a great deal of emergency equipment, but she figured this worked with a lot of small blazes.

Aliss, Eng

Ang managed to get to her feet and headed towards the door to the bay. “Thank you,” she nodded to Aliss as she fetched a suppression unit, two other NEs helping her with the hose and console. She moved to the CO and smiled, though the look on her face was one of such fatigue as was seen after two days of no sleep and trying times. “England, with luck, is safe, Sir. And I have pretty good reason to believe the console that created the rift is destroyed and unusable.”

“That’s good news, Lieutenant,” Johnson said. “Once we sort out everything here, I’ll want to get a full debrief of what happened over there. Did our time-travelling guest stay behind?”

“Yes, Sir. He did. He said he’d see to the destruction of the console that side.” And nodded, brushing stray hair from her face.

Taking a deep breath, the Chief Engineer moved to the bay’s console beside the door and began typing furiously. She could collapse later. Right now, she was an engineer on a ship that needed an engineer. “I’ll get the status of the bay integrity, Sir. You… I’m sorry I don’t know your name,” she hollered to Aliss. “What can you tell me ‘right now’ about hull damage outside this room, or damage beyond the shuttle,” she nodded towards the fires they were putting out. Even without knowing who was who, she would figure out how to pull herself up by the bootstraps and worry about everything else later.

“Aliss, Chief,” she said. She wasn’t a large girl with vague Asian features, but she hauled the hose like a pro. “Warp drive is shut down due to the random power fluctuations from the creatures. Their energy arced like lightning with no clear path but disrupted systems, power and blew out other systems, but the hull is intact. We’ve just got a lot of little repairs to do for a while. And put Humpty back together again,” she said, her thumb hooking toward the shuttle.

Ang furiously typed at the console a moment to verify there was nothing beyond what Aliss had told her. “She’s right, Sir,” she piped up a moment later and looked at the CO. A smile was on her face though her once regulation coif was now half tumbled loose around her shoulders, the hair no longer ‘up in regulation manner’. Her face was stained with grease and dust from being wiped with her dirty hands or from her final slide across the bay floor.

One eyebrow raised slightly in jest as she looked at him. “So ‘this’ is how you test your new Chief Engineer, Sir? How’d I do?” There was a hint of myrth to her voice as she waited for his reaction. She had barely checked in a few days prior and only ‘just’ got medical and psych cleared when all hell broke loose. She hadn’t even seen her office or engineering yet.

“I thought time-travelling adventures were part of the engineering manual for Discovery-class starships,” Johnson said, although the exhaustion was creeping up on him. “Have a fresh team of engineers come in here to take over, Lieutenant. I want you to report to Sickbay to make sure there are no adverse effects from your trip. Check in with me afterwards. I’ll be on the bridge.”

-Captain Johnson, CO

And managed a smile despite her own fatigue matching the Captain’s. “Part of the manual… Ooops. Knew I shouldn’t have cheated on that last exam.” She winked at him and nodded at his order.

“Yes sir.. I’ll see you shortly. ” She headed to assist with the fire suppressions even as she tapped her comm badge to call for reinforcements.

With a full damage control team there, and the engineers on hand, the shuttle bay fires were put out. It looked like a war zone, however, with the walls marked and pocked by the blasts, sooty from the fires and ratty where panels and bulkheads had blown - not to mention the mess of the shuttle. “Was it a good trip?” Aliss said to Ang. “Did you feel anything in passing through there?” She was rolling up the hose and looked a fright with her uniform dirty and smelling of smoke. Her face was smudged and her hair had come out of her pony tail. Still she looked like she’d just come off the roller coaster and wanting another ride.
- Aliss, Eng

Ang laughed at Aliss. “Wow, don’t we look a fright,” she said as she caught her reflection in the shuttle main window. She bit her lip a moment as she thought about the portal. “To be honest, I don’t remember. I think there was a sensation, but other than vertigo on the other side, the first time,” she recalled wanting to lose her breakfast, “I guess that’s about it. But I was so scared and busy I wasn’t really paying attention.”

She helped roll up the hose and glanced around. “I should get to the CO. I don’t imagine ‘tomorrow’ is on his list of ‘soon’.” She sighed and shook her head. “And I still have to go to medical, first.” She glanced around and then smiled. “Make sure medical checks you out as well before coming to work in the morning. Let the next shift clean up in here, got it?” She smiled at the woman as she wiped her hands on her pants and started for the door. “Same for you,” she pointed to the NE engineer who had been helping clean up as well. “Medical check up to see no fumes were detrimental, then rest till morning shift!” She smiled and headed into the hall.
