Chief Engineering Officer

Sky Harbor Aegis

It was doubtful that Demore's imagination was getting the best of him. He was actually quite sure, as of now. The fact was, too many things had gone wrong in too short of a time for coincidence to be the most probable event. It was speculation, but Demore felt... insecure. The station's systems, his systems, had been continuously going offline. The sensors, which were partially working about an hour ago, have sense had another complete failure.

 

Ensign Zhu has managed to map out the failure locations around the station. There were too many for a simple outage, and not enough for a cascade failure. The most likely assumption would be someone had tampered with the devices.

 

But who? Majority of the failure locations were in secure Engineering sections of the station. It was very difficult to believe that someone had gained access to these sensitive areas without anyone's knowledge. At least no one had reported any unknown personnel in restricted areas of the station, so the chances of a saboteur from outside the station's Engineering section was unlikely. Of course, I cannot believe that any of my engineers would do something against the Federation. (They may very well be against the current Cardassian political power, though.) None of the engineers have reported any supicious activity either, which makes it even more doubtful someone "inside" Engineering did this on their own.

 

Of course, it could be anyone... if they're sly enough. But, Aegis security systems are very trustworthy, and are hard to get around. (However, disabling internal sensors would achieve greater "stealth.")

 

In the end, it is possible that these events just happened at the wrong time. The likelyhood of this being the case is slim-to-none, though.

 

Put simply, I can't trust anyone... and I won't.
