“Computer set display screen to whiteboard mode” Ella ordered as she moved over to the largest of display screens. It turned white and offered several options, she began by drawing a large circle in the middle and in the centre writing “Temporal Events” Starting with the Ice Town she began to a branch of with the Date, Environmental conditions, effects, methods before she had the first branch of her mind diagram complete. She highlighted key parts such as Plasma Energy. She did the same for the remaining two topics before she finally had a fully formed diagram. Stepping back she placed her hands on her hips. “Interesting.” She explained

“Well, there’s plenty of similarities between what we’re experiencing now and what these have in the past see here…” She started another branch and labelled it ‘Synthesis’ Plasmatic Energy, Raised shields and The Warrens. She then drew lines from the other branches towards Plasmatic Energy. “Computer detail further studies into temporal travel by means of using Plasmatic Energy as an initiator to rupture a hole through space-time either through time or reality.”

Gavin was en route to one of the science labs to search for the CSO when he was told they’d probably be found in the temporal lab. While the sciences were never Ensign Stacey’s forte, he was curious to see what progress they’ve made so far and how his discovery could further their quest for answers. Unfortunately, Gavin also knew his findings could bring about more questions than answers.

“Lieutenant Belmont!?” Doctor Stacey called out as he entered the lab. Upon seeing the whiteboard the Ensign stopped in his tracks and stared with amazement. It appeared that the science crew had come up with many possibilities, hopefully, his clue would be more helpful after all. After gazing over the whiteboard for a few seconds, Ensign Stacey noticed that the Counselor and another officer were also in attendance. “Excuse me, but I think I’ve found something you’d want to take a look at.”

Najjar observed the new comer’s surprise at the information on the whiteboard. “It was all them. I can’t take credit for any of it.” She said, wondering what the Ensign was going to contribute.

Gavin pulled the PaDD from his back pocket and waved it at the officers. “It might help with… with that.” The Ensign added, gesturing to the whiteboard.

“Don’t be so hard on yourself Lieutenant your presence is enough to keep us all inspired” Ella smiled at the chief counsellor, as an Elasian she had no real preference and mostly all her words and action came of seductive, though woman were immune to her Elasian Chemically charged tears she was still elegantly pretty. Having waited long or in this case short enough he turned her attention to the new comer, “So, what have you got for us? We’re running out of ideas, but were close if you’re right this could be the missing piece to our temporal puzzle.”

Mykl shrugged off the inclusive comment. She knew her limitations, but was interested to see what the doctor had brought for them to see.

Gavin was surprised to hear that their ideas were running out, given the amount of work they’ve completed so far. “You must take a look at this!” Ensign Stacey exclaimed as he hooked his PaDD up to a nearby computer station. The Doctor didn’t wait for the data to finish uploading and continued to explain himself.

“I was doing some scans on the Synthesis’s crew, well the ones that actually had uncorrupted data, and I found something extremely unusual,” Gavin stated, pointing to the scans on the monitor. “You’ll see that the crew is in normal health....” He said as he waved off that portion of his findings, “But then you’ll see that some organic anomaly has infiltrated the Synthesis’s computer core, here!” Gavin added. The young doctor took a step back as the zoomed-in portion of the computer core appeared on the screen so the science folks can take a look.

“Now that’s something I could shove in my dad’s face,” Gavin said, whispering to the Counselor; a subtle clue as to his view on his father.

Sure enough, there was something organic in the computer core. “Well, that doesn’t belong there.” Even she could see that. “Is there a way for us to get a sample of it?” Running scans would be the quickest way to get information. If they were left to guess what the material was, they could hypothesize for days and still not land on the right answer.

—Najjar, CNS

Ella would end up looking at the data, “..Given how brief it was, sensors won’t tell us much more. It would probably be more likely to get a sample by having someone on the Synthesis away team go their directly to look for anything for us..” She said. “..That said, looking at what we did pick up, brief as it was, seems like it is organic as we can surmise, but the oddity is it seems like it’s directly making up the Synthesis’s computer core. That shouldn’t be possible on a ship of this age and design. So it has to be something from the Warrens itself somehow. We may want to alert the captain and security of this finding. Have them check our own systems for any anomalies like this ship wide. It might reveal something who knows?” She suggested.

=^=Belmont to Temporal Lab. Greetings my hardworking scientists, how are things going over there on the AA? Have you been able to uncover any new information?=^= V’alura paused, waiting for her team’s response.

Lt JG Belmont, CSO

=^= Doctor Stacey here, Lieutenant.=^= Gavin stated when the comm came through. =^= If you have your PaDD on you, I’m going to transfer some data to you.=^= The Medical Officer stated. Gavin clicked on the data transfer option on his PaDD and found the Science Chief’s name.

=^= I was running some scans on the Synthesis crew and found that there was some type of organic anomaly in the computer core!=^= Gavin exclaimed as he started the transfer process. =^= If you do have your PaDD, you should see the data I’m sending to you. It was a brief occurrence, but long enough to see that something was there.=^=

Ens. Stacey Medical

=^=This is quite the find. Thank you for your report, En.” V’alura said, her tone calm and casual. =^= Keep me updated and if you would, please relay this information to our engineering team here on the Synthesis.=^=

Lt. JG Belmont, CSO

=^= I copy, Lieutenant.=^= Gavin called out, ending the communication. Now that the CSO was informed, the doctor pressed his comm badge once more.

=^= Doctor Stacey to Chief Engineer Miz’uki, I have an update for you.=^= The Ensign stated excitedly. =^= Do you have your PaDD on hand?=^= Gavin went back over to where his PaDD was and began to transfer the data he collected over to the CE.

=^= You’re going to find, hopefully, some sort of organic anomaly in the Synth’s computer core, Lieutenant.=^= Doctor Stacey announced. =^= I’ve already informed our science chief, but she asked me to give you a heads up as well. =^=.

As the team was back and forth discussing things, NE Helpful spoke up by another console, “..Um, sirs? Maybe we should also alert the bridge of this? Maybe even the security department? Just to make sure no issues are cropping up on the Angel too?” he suggested.

GM CockRoach

Gavin nodded in return. The NE was correct, they did need to inform the Bridge of their findings. Doctor Stacey walked the short distance over to the computer terminal and unplugged his PaDD from the docking port. “Counselor, I’ll head to the Bridge and explain the situation up there.” The Medical Officer stated, placing the PaDD into his back pocket. “I didn’t think of the possibility that this anomaly could spread to the AA’s systems as well.”

There wasn’t much that Doctor Stacey could do in the meantime; the anomaly had been noticed and both Chiefs Engineer and Science Officer have been notified. Before exiting the lab, Stacey turned. “Thanks for the assistance, Counselor!” Gavin then turned and disappeared into the corridor.
