USS FEYNMAN: Searching

by Melanie Pocknall 9-1-1996

MD: 7.1340 (possibly)
SCENE: Feynman Bridge

Meleah stepped out of the turbolift and saw Tarrant working at the engineering station. She assumed that he was trying to find Maril but the thing that puzzled Meleah was that what ship Maril was in. No-one had gotten around to informing her about the various things that had been happening while she was on the surface. Rather than bother Tarrant, who she presumed had only just been informed himself, she went over to Chief T'Kal who was running scans through the computer. Being half Vulcan, she knew that he would give a precise account of what had happened in a shorter time than most of the officers on board.

A couple of minutes later, being more informed than she had been when she had come onto the bridge, she was able to take her place at the second science station and scan for the cloaked BoP. Not an easy job under normal circumstances, it was even harder because of all the interference. Considering how long ago the Bat'leth was sent to look for them, coming back may take a long time. Either that, or they had run into trouble.

Just then, a piece of debris floated past the viewscreen. Straight away, Meleah focused scanners on it, just as Tarrant ordered the tactical officer to do so. After a couple of minutes, Meleah was able to make a judgement. "The debris appears to be from a small vessel, possibly a runabout. It is hard to tell but there is radiation emanating from it which may have been caused by disrupters. The disrupters were...." She paused to look at her readings. "Of Klingon origin."

"So we know that Cmdr Maril was down there somewhere. But where is he now?"

"That is impossible to calculate, Lt, especially as...." Meleah's voice trailed off as she realized what he meant. "Oh. It was a rhetorical question. In that case, I will attempt to find out."

Tarrant shook his head slightly, and turned back to his work.

Half an hour went by in relative silence. No trace of the BoP was found. Even if Maril hadn't engaged the cloak, it would still be difficult to sense the ship before it showed on the viewscreen. Then, almost as if Meleah had willed it, the Bat'leth decloaked.

"Incoming message from the Bird of Prey," announced PO Williams.

"On screen," said Tarrant, coming down to stand in front of the screen.

Maril's face appeared. "It seems that Lenart has come to the mountain after all."

Off-screen, Meleah face showed a puzzled expression until she figured out what he meant. Tamarian metaphors were harder to understand than human speech.

NRPG:

Well, it's a strange ending but at least we've found the BoP. Shall we get going?

BTW, I apologize for mucking up the mission dates. Sometimes they can be very hard to keep track of <G>.

Sincerely yours,
Lt. Meleah, CSciO, USS FEYNMAN.

Melanie.
