Personal Log-later still don't know what the date is? 3

Lt Cmdr Storm I did everything Trip said too & sure enough all the 'fires' lit up like a tactical display. I dispatched the returning engineers to...the major ones & my team to the rest.  Commander T'Pol must still be on the bridge but worked on the software. She must've realized what...I was doing. Major Reed hasn't contacted me yet but I sent qualified engineers to the armory. *yelling* would someone get me some ...more coffee and a sandwich. Damn I'm hungry. *alarm goes off* What now? *growls*

Major Reed The forward phase canons are down but I've got aft canons. As long as the Klingons sneak up from behind, we're fine. The Armory's control board did light up like a torch a little while ago, so things must be progressing in engineering.

Lt Cmdr Storm *accidentally triggers shipwide comm* I don't give a DAMN you don't work faster I'll claw you! I NEED Coffeee!

Major Reed Now I know why engineering is moving along so smoothly. They're avoiding getting torn to shreds by the Lt. Cmdr. temporarily in charge. I'd intervene, but I think some of those engineers need to squirm for a while.

Lt Cmdr Storm *still shipwide* IF You don't move your ass I'll give you a guided tour of the airlock. Get to the Armory maybe the Major can use you.*grr* *finally notices she's been shipwide switches it off* oh crap...*sighs* I need a break...*sits down*

Major Reed to Lt Cmdr Storm *types at a terminal* Thank you for that bit of ... entertainment, love. And for the extra help in the Armory. Perhaps you should get some coffee in the mess hall? I'm certain the engineering staff is sufficiently cowed right now.

Lt Cmdr Stormto Major Reed *looks down at blinking message* You'll probably be shooting me later for all sorts of discrepancies, love & you're welcome. Join me? or are you knee deep in repairs. I do need to eat something. *waits a bit* Hmm guess that's a no. Think y'all can working while I go for dinner? *an Ensign opens the hatch* subtle real subtle. *smirks & leaves*

Major Reed to Lt Cmdr Storm I'd like to get these blasted canons online first. It may take a while. What "discrepancies"?

Lt Cmdr Storm to Major Reed I can bring you some food & umm I'll tell you when I see you. Have you started on the 'new' canon yet? I have an adjustment to try.

Major Reed to Lt Cmdr Storm Very well. I'm in the forward canon array. There's quite a bit of damage. She knew just where to hit us.

Lt Cmdr Storm to Major Reed Okay, I'll grab us some food, sandwiches... easy to eat while working. And of course she did. *growls* *shortly thereafter leaving messhall balancing a tray* Deja vu' *sighs* I hope Tucker is okay, and that Trip talks to him. *heads towards the armory and then entering the armory with a tray of food. Puts tray down & looks around* ahh it smells better in here. *PADD vibrates*

Trip Tucker to Lt Cmdr Storm *leaves message* Just talked to your engineer. He's fine but doesn't yet know his coordinate location. I'll keep you informed if I learn anythin' else.

Lt Cmdr Storm to Trip Tucker *secure & types* thank you. He's okay that's good. Hope to hear from you soon. Engine works I didn't blow up the ship. ;-) *sends message* And then *hears banging & swearing* well I know where Malcolm is *grabs food & enters* here eat something. We can take a small break. Can't work if we pass out.

Major Reed to Lt Cmdr Storm *climbs out of the canon assembly tube* Lieutenant? Are you still around?

Lt Cmdr Storm to Major Reed *climbs out from under the targeting console* Yes, Major. Decided to stay in the armory nice and quiet, compared to engineering, and I heard Kelby made it back. *Smirks*

Major Reed to Lt Cmdr Storm *swears vehemently* The Captain is not going to be pleased. Two of the canons are beyond repair. They'll have to be rebuilt from scratch. The others will take a least two days.

Lt Cmdr Storm to Major Reed *looks at you* with me, or this? *waves hand to console* I'm working as fast as I can.

Lt Cmdr Storm to Major Reed Umm what about the one I have in the lab? while you were on planet I got bored. *grins*

Major Reed to Lt Cmdr Storm *looks up in surprise* You have another built phase canon?

Lt Cmdr Storm to Major Reed *nods* Yes, and umm the one we installed, since we didn't test it, I pulled it *looks down nervous* out..

Lt Cmdr Storm to Major Reed That's why I comm'd you...to not try it. *really nervous whispering* I'm sorry.

Major Reed to Lt Cmdr Storm It doesn't matter. I didn't even get a chance to fire before she took out what we had.

Major Reed to Lt Cmdr Storm *stands up* That's the first good news I've had all day. Get one of the MACOs to help you bring them both here.

Lt Cmdr Storm to Major Reed well I thought of an adjustment, Cmdr Tucker and I were talking and it clicked. So I pulled it out to work on it.

Major Reed to Lt Cmdr Storm *grumbles* I'll have two working forward canons by tomorrow if if takes us all bloody night to install them.

Cmdr Archer*over comm* Engineering do we have impulse yet?

Lt Cmdr Storm to Major Reed Yes Sir, Major! Permission to get coffee and tea then Sir? *serious not sarcastic*

Lt Cmdr Storm to Cmdr Archer When I left Engineering sir, Kelby was working on that! *checks her PADD* yes, Sir it is working.

Cmdr Archer to Lt Cmdr Storm Good. Thank you.

Lt Cmdr Storm to Cmdr Archer Yes Sir. *thinking to herself* that's a first.

Major Reed to Lt Cmdr Storm *nods, serious* Permission granted. You might consider a bringing a couple of hypos of caffeine.

Lt Cmdr Storm to Major Reed *looks at you* for me or you? *smirks* seriously you want anything other than tea & working canons? Food?

Major Reed to Lt Cmdr Storm Tea and working canons? *snorts* Yes, that's all I want right now. That and the Commodore's head.

Lt Cmdr Storm to Major Reed oh that reminds me. Who here do you trust to go get the canons? I 'need' to tell you something. Privately. *very serious*

Lt Cmdr Storm to Major Reed *goes to Comm* Dylan I need a thermos of coffee & one of tea. In the armory please. *comes back over* I trust him.

Major Reed to Lt Cmdr Storm *looks around, thinking* Chang and Gomez. They can take care of it.

Lt Cmdr Storm to Major Reed okay they are in plain sight we were making the adjustments on both. *gives code to Chang*

Major Reed to Lt Cmdr Storm *grabs some tools* What did you need to tell me?

Lt Cmdr Storm to Major Reed *sighs* now don't get angry with me? Intel is intel, right?

Major Reed to Lt Cmdr Storm *frowns* Go ahead.

Lt Cmdr Storm to Major Reed I contacted the other Tucker 'securely' I needed his help with the damn engines. & then he told me Tucker contacted him. So.. I asked if he heard from him again to get his coordinates if possible. *looks nervous*

Major Reed to Lt Cmdr Storm *scowls* Him! I wouldn't trust him. Not after that ale and the database. *grumbles* We can talk about this more tomorrow. Let's get these weapons online first. *makes his way back into the tube*
