"Paul, have a seat." Jack said with a warm smile. "There is water on the
table if you'd like some." Jack said with a warm smile.

Walking into the office Sleeford sat in the chair opposite the desk,
crossing his legs he pulled his jacket down, reaching forward he poured a
glass of water.

"I know that the last two days have been rather trying, but know this is a
safe place. This office, our staff, we're here for you."

Smiling Sleeford took a sip of water and nodded, "Thank you, so where do
you want me to start?"

"I guess, I could start in a variety of different places, but why don't you
walk me through the events of last night, in your own words. and please
feel fee to share how you were feeling during that particular time. Though
I apologize, as I might interrupt from time to time."

"Not at all Counsellor, feel free to interrupt at any time."

"Now then, are you ready to begin?"

Taking a breath Sleeford cleared his throat, "We where in the Ops office,
analysing the voices that had taken at the time of Commanders Tyko's death,
Erin thought she'd heard the voice earlier in the evening. It was getting a
little crowded what with Commander Braken, Lieutenants Williams and Cortez,
Commander Merek and myself."

Sleeford paused and took a sip of water.

"we'd played the sample a couple of times and where discussing ways of
detaining the identified voice, when ..when we're where on the holodeck.
Well Cortez, Williams, More, Clark, Hammerhead,  Wakeman and myself. I
assume the others where still in Ops office. "

Couching Sleeford paused and thought back to last night, his blood running
cold as he remembered the events.

"Anyway, the thing that called herself Maxine sat at the front on some kind
of throne, with a click of her fingers had us all held in a field. The the
torture began."

"her first action was to kill Clarke, for no other reason then she thought
he was boring"

"She started with Ire Williams, why she started on him I have no idea, she
produced Greta, no that's not right, it was a holographic Greta. She made
Ire fight her to the death, his or Gretas, she didn't care which. "

"I stood there feeling like an useless lump of, well the Klingons would
probably have a word or three for it. She made Ira Kill 'Greta'. She moved
on to me, I expected to have to fight my father or another member of the
crew, instead she filled the space I was in with water, i had time to take
a couple of deep breaths and calm my mind as much as i could.  I was there
for a minute, felt like  a lifetime. "

"While she toyed with me, she turned  to More, Cortez, Hammerhead and
Wakeman. They all refused to play her game and she chose to kill Cortez as
a way to prover her mastery of the situation. "

"I'll be honest I wanted to kill her, to make her pay for her actions. I
worried that if a rescue team managed to get in then she'd have fresh meat
to play with and we'd be forced t fight until there was one man standing,
exhausted, demoralised and willing to do anything to make her stop."
