Before his eyes the inside of the Hippocrates small transporter room disappeared, only to be replaced with the much larger one of the Ogawa. Dr Jarvis tensed slightly as the process of his molecules reassembling themselves finished. He was not a fan of such methods of transportation. At least not for organic beings. Trusting a computer to break you apart and then put you back together exactly as you were left much to be desired. Contrary to popular belief, computers sometimes made mistakes. Stepping off the transporter pad at the behest of the operator, Jasper filled in with Counsellor Pope and the pair of security officers. With any luck, he would soon be free of this irritating entourage. Free to move about under his own direction. At the door, another pair of phaser touting louts waited

“Welcome aboard the Ogawa, Counsellor. If you would follow us, Captain Taylor will see you in the conference room,” one, a human female of about 5’ 8” with burnt orange hair said.

“Thank you, Ensign,” Pope replied, following the woman through the door and to the nearest turbolift.

Jarvis rolled his eyes but said nothing. While trading one institution for another would not rid him of such rigidness entirely, he would hopefully be able to get some time away from it. If only when alone in his own quarters.

The group entered the turbolift and the Ensign spoke to the computer, “deck four.”

They rose steadily for a few moments before coming to a stop. Jasper glanced around as they were led out and through a short corridor into a large room. Inside he took in the long oval table with its many chairs. Out of a window he caught a glimpse of a planet, Carraya IV, he assumed.

“The Captain will be with you shortly, “ the Ensign said. “As you may already be aware, Counsellor, Commander Walker has already beamed aboard

Pope nodded and the woman left. The pair stood and waited for the Captain.

While the newest visitors of the ship were being led to the conference room Willow sat in her office before a computer terminal looking aghast.

“WHAT!” She more or less bellowed at the grey spikey haired man on the screen who did not look too happy at being adressed as such. “You cant be serious!”

The man scowled. “Mind your tone Captain Taylor, mind it well.”

“Im sorry Admiral Davies…but…Mark for the love of…what on…i dont want someone like that on my ship! We are a medical ship not a rehabilitation outreach programme.”

“Will…” the man began and rubbed the bridge of his.nose. “Look its not up to me, i made sure you got the best for the chief of staff positions twice now. Do you know how many ships would have killed for even half your medical department let alone the rest of the crew.”

Willow pursed her lips, her jaw clenching. “Jarvis is a good.doctor if a little off the rails. He should be utalised and given what you are.going into you need all the medical experts you can get.”

“I am not letting that man near a laser scalpel.” She said. The admiral shrugged.

“As is your choice for now but there are other officers and people guilty of genetic manipulation who were not punished as you well know.” He raised his eyebrows at her and her heart skipped a beat, mouth suddenly dry she licked her lips and shook her head.

Admiral Davies looked apologetic suddenly. “Im sorry that was uncalled for. Listen…your father and i were good friends Willow…id never do anything that might…”

“Thank you Admiral. I understand perfectly and will ensure that Jarvis has something to do on board. But i want it on record that i do not agree with this placement and will be filling in my XO and chief of staff as to the nature of this immediately.”

Sensing the conversation at an end Davies tone became slightly cooler. “As you wish Captain. I will send you Jarvis’s information shortly. Counsellor pope will answer any further questions.Your concerns are noted. Davies out.”

Willow watched as almost immediately the information began appearing on her screen. She put her head in her hands and sighed deeply. She sat like this for a moment before the chirp of the comms interupted her.

=^= NE williams to Taylor. Just to let you know our guests are waiting for you in the conference room.=^=

Willow scowled. Her head hurt. She reached for her badge and pressed it with the tips of her fingers. =^= Understood. Have someone bring them something to drink oh and have a medical division uniform replicated. Ill be there presently.=^=

She looked again at the information on the screen and then downloaded it to two seperate PaDDs.

=^= Taylor to Onuru and Walker report to my office immediately =^=
