(USS Exeter – Shuttlebay - Shuttle Michelangelo - (Spc)- Comp. Ops.  Ensign
SG. Zot -1008)


Zot entered the shuttle and removed his hard cased backpack pack and sat it
on his lap,as he took a seat. In his bag were several devices capable of
interfacing with known and some slightly unknown computer technologies. He
hoped he brought the right equipment. He looked around the interior of the
shuttle. Taking note of the fine details.

=/\= All crew and passengers of the Shuttle Michelangelo, this is your
pilot speaking. You may or may not be aware, we just received
correspondence from our detained First Officer, she managed to sneak a
second set of coordinates, that are not her own and some schematics to a
device bigger than a console. We have enough brain power on this shuttle,
give it a once over and discuss it, by the time we land we’ll need a
preliminary plan on how to deal with it. We brought the explosives, I’m
going to leave that in reserve as a last resort. Drink and snack service
has been suspended for this flight, we have less than five minutes before
take off,=/\= the Lieutenant said over the comm.

Zot turned to the Engineer known as Vosi

" I did not think the flight would be long enough to consume refreshments
anyway. That is of course you are not concerned about blocking your airway
with edible treats."

(Reply Vosi)

" I am sorry , I am finding myself nervous. I tend to rumble...no that's
not right ...I tend to ramble ...yes ramble is the term , I tend to ramble
when I am nervous."

(Reply Vosi)

Zot pulled up the schematics to the other set of coordinates on the
terminal to his left.

Suddenly the display on the terminal started changing rapidly. Zot tilted
his head. As he watched the various subroutines being accessed without
being prompted by them. Before he could say anything the power went out.

They were sitting in near darkness, the only light coming in from the
windows.

Zot opened the pack on his lap and jumped out of his seat and ripped the
wall panel next to the terminal off. " Lieutenant Merek" He yelled."Someone
hacked our systems "

( reply Merek)

Zot pulled a blue luminescent cord from one of his devices and plug it into
the isolinear plate frame.  The shuttle rocked and jerked around. "
Whomever hacked the system isn't in it anymore. " He said loudly his eyes
focused on the information readout on his device.

( reply any )

" I have access to the system, but they backdoored and circumvented various
programs, causing startup sequences to be out of sync. I can restore power
to the emergency transporters and that's about it. As time isn't on our
side." Zot declared. Knowing if there was any chance of saving the shuttle
an engineer would have to spring to action.

( reply any as the shuttle is free falling)

( reply Vosi, Merek, reply any)
