A Flaw in the Net

[Bill Gamble 0]

Bill was sitting in his office, he could feel the vain in his forehead pulsating, an obvious sign that he was not happy. He couldn't really concentrate on the protein re-sequencer report that sat in front, since it appear that the problem would more than likely be handled by Engineering, and that was something that really did not fascinate him, as a matter of fact, it was boring to him. But then again, he was not an Engineer, now was he is.

 

What was really baking Bill's noodle was how a Suliban managed to sneak aboard the ship. Granted that the Enterprise reports had mentioned that the Suliban could mostly sneak onto a ship without anyone noticing, due to the technology that they had, but according to the sensors the Suliban had been in Engineering for several hours just creeping around. "Several Hours!?" he repeated to himself "He could have destroyed the ship easily with all the time he had, but he didn't..."

 

He was simply engrossed with the thought that was a flaw in security, and Bill would accept nothing less than the best from his security force. He knew that after the mission to Acamar III that there had to be work done with the security crew. According to the duty logs, thanks to Marks and M'rrisha, security had been in Engineering a good amount of time while the Suliban was there. What Bill wanted to know was what they were doing that would have caused this, what would become, fatal mistake in there patrol. But as Bill said, this problem would obviously have to be rectified after the mission to Acamar III, and it would be dealt with appropriately.

 

For the time he'd have to obviously concentrate on the problem at hand. While the food re-sequencers would more than likely be taken care of by Engineering and/or Science, he would have to deal with the investigation to see if the Suliban had tampered with them as a form of sabotage. Bill tapped his fingers on his desk, he was in deep though. He would have to decide which of his two assistants he could trust with this work. Bill quietly thought to himself, he was considering that he could use this assignment as a test for one of his assistants, something he had been waiting to do, but he didn't knew w which one could handle it, the problem could wait for the time...

 

"What a hell of a way to start a mission" Bill thought to himself for a moment. "We have our work cut out for us, cause it's all downhill from here."
