“What do you think?”

 

“Looks good. I’m impressed.”

 

Murray wandered around main engineering, taking in the repair job that Commander Cazorla and his engineers had done. It had taken 10 days for repair, only a few more than estimated. And what a repair job it was. Not only had they done the repairs, but they also did some systems upgrades.

 

He entered Prell’s office and looked around. “Wow. This is really good. The Chief will be happy to have an office again. It looks so knew he’ll think that the ship had just arrived from the shipyard.”

 

Cazorla smiled. “Well, the whole office needed to be redone. The damage was quite extensive, so we figured we’d take the extra time and start from scratch. Not that we had much of a choice, but it was better than retrofitting an office from one of the decommissioned ships.”

 

Cazorla exited the office and stood before the pool table. “The master engineering systems station has been removed and replaced with the newest model. Physically it has attached seating that can swivel underneath the table so that they’re out of the way when not in use. Designed specifically for this class vessel, this model has enhanced remote abilities that allows for better monitoring of the situations and activity on the bridges and the other two engineerings. The stations have also been replaced in the other two engineering rooms.”

 

Murray took the padd that Cazorla was offering to him. “This padd contains all of the details of the repairs and upgrades.”

 

“Thank you, Commander. Tell your people they did an outstanding job.”

 

“Of course, Lieutenant. Good luck. And no offense, but I hope never to see you again.”

 

Murray laughed, then smiled in such a way that Cazorla was unsure if was joking or if he knew something that Cazorla didn’t. He left confused and a little frightened.
