Then turned to Rainn, “..So I was told..” She said eyeing the two NEs. “..Ensigns do either of you got something to say for yourselves?” She asked the two NEs.

”..We’re scared ma’am. I know you say we’ll find a way home but we just don’t see how that’ll happen.” NE Bills said.

”..Ensign Bills, you’re aboard a Mythology class ship, you were specially trained and expected to possibly perform your duties on extended missions. I know a situation like this is possible extreme but it was also an envisioned possibility to some degree..” Drudoc said.

NE Wills interrupted. “..But ma’am, we’re not even in our own galaxy or....or remotely close to it!” Wills said.

”..I am aware Ensign. But we’re all in this together, going off the deep end like this only causes problems to the morale and well being of the rest of the crew.” Turning to Rainn as neither seemed willing to reply any further she said. “..Take both to the holding cells, then get one of the counseling NEs down there to review their psychological health. They are then to cool their heels there for two days while cleaning out the holding cells to a spit and polish shine. Questions?” She asked anyone present.

That was all? Rainns anger amplified. These ensigns had disrupted his schedule, the Captains, and the engineering department’s, threatened to kill themselves, and tampered with ship equipment, for what? To tell the captain they were nervous about being flung across the universe? Did they think their anxieties were unique in that way? His fists, were clenched, his eyes were like daggers, stabbing at the souls of the NE’s.

Then came the Captains verdict, two days? just two? Rainns nearly exploded. As calmly as he could, he turned to Logan, “Get these miserable deckhands out of my sight.” He ordered, “Take them to the holding cells.” He held up his finger to the captain in a manner that implicated he wished for her to stay a moment after the rest departed.

Once everyone had cleared the room, he took a deep breath, attempting to calm himself. “Captain,” he began slowly, “Two days is not long enough, those two ensigns should be sitting there for at least a month, a slap on the wrist is not going to be enough to stop future mutiny like that.” Rainns knew he had just used a loaded term, but he felt it was proper. Two nobodies, demanding an audience with the captain, and threatening to kill themselves and damage the ship, was mutiny.

“Yes Lt. I will do so. Come on you two knuckleheads. You’re coming with me.” When the ensign took the other two ensigns to the holding cells and locks them up in there //^\ holding cell to the captain and Lt. Rainns. They are now secured in their cells and they will not get out. As a suggestion we should deactivate all transporters just to be on the safe side just in case if they try to escape sirs //^\ she then tapped her combadge from the communications then left the holding cells.

With the problem of two irate NEs solved the security staff could return to their usual patrols and duties.
