“Stand by sir.” The NE at the science station said, she tried the transporter again. “Sir, I can lock on the coolant sensor, but the device is interfering with the transporter. I am attempting to compensate.” The NE was inexperienced at this, but was trying her best. “I am trying to beam the whole thing into space.” She said strained as she attempted to work the transporter.

“I think I got it!” She exclaimed as she continued to work the controls.

Dvorak stood (if he wasn’t already) and took two steps over to the science station to watch what the officer there was doing.

OCC: I looked back and wasn’t sure if you are sitting or standing, I’m going to assume that the Captain is standing for this next part.

IC: Everything that happened next happened very quickly. Dvorak heard the NE shout “I got it, transport in progress.” as the words came out of her mouth, someone else cried out in warning. “Captain!” Before Dvorak could even process was the was going on, he felt the brunt force of a tackle, the wind nearly getting knocked out of him as he hit the deck. He felt the weight of someone else land on top of him. The sound of a phaser firing near where he was standing. He heard a scream from the NE at the science station. He heard another phaser blast hit a console. The console exploded and a body hit the deck. Someone else on the bridge returned fire at who ever fired first. There was a muted flash on the bridge, then silence.

Damn, Dvorak thought. He didn’t see who had tackled him, or why, but he didn’t need to in order to know that his life was probably still in immediate danger. There was no time to remain planted on the deck face first, or ask whoever was on top of him–Did they fall? he wondered–to move aside.

He tried to draw the type-1 hand phaser that he kept inside his uniform’s waistband with his right hand, while simultaneously pushing against the deck with his left in an attempt to flip himself over to face whatever the threat here was. The hope was he would have some sort of shot, if only for an instant, if he needed it.

The body that Dvorak pushed off of him was NE Weaver. He had a phaser burn on his back shoulder, he was alive, barely. The NE at tactical was holding his type 2 phaser towards the Engineering control station. The science console had been hit with a phaser blast, the NE at the science station was on the ground, console burns and shrapnel on her face and upper body.

“Captain, are you alright?” The NE at tactical said, running over to him. He helped him get NE Weaver off of him.

“Yes,” he said. Can’t have been the shooter, he thought regarding the man moving towards him. Aiming the wrong way. He thus decided not to fire his own phaser and instead focus on getting NE Weaver off of himself.

“I’ve got that,” he said as he lifted himself off of the floor, giving Weaver an unceremonious shove in the process. Sorry, he thought. Please don’t die yet.

“Where’s the one at Engineering?” he asked.

“I don’t know sir, the crewman at the engineering console raised his phaser at you. He hit NE Weaver then fired at the science station before vanishing in a muted flash of light.” the tactical NE said as he looked around the bridge.

=^= Bridge are you seeing any changes in the coolant flow up there?=^= She asked =^=It appears the device has been successfully transported away.=^= She added remaining where she was because she didn’t trust that it was actually gone just yet. Not aware that there had been an incident on the Bridge.
