Scene: Main Shuttlebay | |||
“I know how you got stuck with this crap detail but I don’t know why I’m here!” Crewman Bennis whined for at least the third time in the last fifteen minutes. | |||
Corey Campbell bit his tongue as he had done every other time and continued to wipe down the interior of the shuttle NIMITZ. | |||
“I’m not even in this department!” Bennis complained. “I’m a warp technician. This is not work for a work technician.” | |||
“You’re a warp technician assistant.” Corey was getting to his breaking point. “Third class.” He added as he paused to wipe the sweat from his forehead with the back of his arm. “And as for why you’re here it’s for the same reason I am. You pissed off the wrong people.” | |||
“You heard what happened on this shuttle didn’t you? Something crazy went down on the planet. Something unnatural.” | |||
“Like what?” Campbell asked. He had of course already hacked into the ship’s logs and new exactly what had occurred. But he was curious to see what the grapevine had invented. | |||
“I don’t know exactly.” Bennis leaned forward. “But I do know that some of the officers were possessed and they had an exorcism on this shuttle.” He pointed to one of the benches. | |||
“A what?” Corey laughed. “Buddy you’ve been watching too many vids.” | |||
“Why else do you think they beamed aboard this shuttle first. They had to make sure they drove out the evil spirits. I heard that planet was some sort of alien death camp.” | |||
Corey was laughing so hard he had to sit down. “You’re right that’s what happened. I can see it now. The senior officers all cramped together in this shuttle. They’re all holding hands and chanting while the unlucky possessed one is spewing curses and damnations. All while Dr. Corbett is standing in the back his tricorder held high as he mutters religious incantations and orders out the evil spirits. Ya, that’s exactly what happened.” | |||
“You can laugh all you want but I talked to someone and they always have the scoop. And who knows where those spirits went to? What if they’re still lingering.” He looked around nervously. “Do you want to be possessed?” Bennis demanded. | |||
“If it gets me off this detail, sure why not!” | |||
