A Brief Flare of Temper

[Cmdr Ayers 0]

          Nick is pacing the confines of his office as he mutters darkly under his breath.  He can understand why Mogg would take what Nick was doing personally as it was his neck on the line.  It was even understandable coming from Muon as Starfleet's justice system was based on the old adversarial system set up long ago on Earth.  The unfathomable anger was the anger from Images.  Surely the young doctor knew that it was part of Nick's job to discredit him as a witness and to impeach his testimony.  Nick didn't like doing it but he had a duty to carry out and that was part of it.  

 

      The other unfathomable part was Image's insistence that Mogg could be treated for his trauma while living on a station that at any one time had no small amount of Cardassians on it.  That would be like Images trying to help Nick with his deep rooted hatred of the Borg while on a Borg Cube.  Whatever would happen it wouldn't be good.  Though at least, unlike Mogg, Nick knew better then to let his personal feelings get in the way of his duty and responsibilities.

 

      Nick continues to pace the confines of his office as he resists the urge to try and put a fist through the wall.  Finally he says "Computer, send this memo to Dr. Images' quarters.  It should read "Doctor, I wish to have a discussion with you regarding some concerns.  Let me know when it will be convenient to you."  Nick pauses in thought momentarily then says "Computer, send to Dr. Images as soon as the Station log makes note of rendering of a decision in the Ensign Mogg court martial."  

 

      He isn't about to throw a bone to Muon in giving her a reason to claim interference with a witness.
