Mission: Azimuth Horizon: Crusade - Chapter 3: Preparations
Location: USS McKenzie, Engineering


Walking into engineering Sorripto looked over as the engineering crews lined up for quarters and their underway assignments. Grabbing a PADD off the desk Sorripto began to call out tasks leaving the names to be filled in by the crewmen who knew their qualifications and skill sets.



"We need a level one diagnostic of all internal containment systems. I need a level three diagnostic of the transporter system. We need a level two recalibration of the Heisenberg compensator on transporter pad two."



As Sorripto read off the assignments the engineering crew walked off to complete their underway tasks.



"I have some work to do on the power relays if anyone needs me you know where to find me."



Glancing up Sorripto continued.



"Chief Reichman you are with me."



Walking over to the power relay Sorripto began to pry open the panel from corner to corner.



"Chief we need to talk. I pulled every string I could muster to get you assigned to this ship. Even back when I was the Science officer I knew I wanted you here and now more then ever I know you are someone I can trust."



As Sorripto continued Chief Reichman nodded in understand.



"Some friends of ours are out there and will expect things of us when the time comes and more then ever we have to be ready for them."



"We sir?"



"The McKenzie has to be ready Chief. An old friend is counting on it."



Pulling off the panel Sorripto began to remove chips and calibrate them for a diagnostic glancing over Sorripto noticed a lone crewman who had clearly heard some of the personal conversation. Flaring up Sorripto yelled.



"Move along Davis you have tasks at hand."



Removing the final chips Sorripto began the diagnostic scan.



"Computer. Estimate time remaining for diagnostic."



"Twenty seven minutes."



"Perfect. Chief you should come with me there is more work to do and we still need to talk."



Sorripto let his eyes wonder observing his crew busy at work prepping the McKenzie for her upcoming mission. Making mental notes of the tasks still at hand Sorripto turned his head and motioned for the Chief to follow him. Grabbing his PADD and tool kit Sorripto and chief Reichman walked to the ladder and climbed down echoes of them talking could be heard as the large Cardassian climbed down and faded from sight.



Reading over the possible tasks at hand Sorripto mumbled angrily under his breath.



"All that work on the shields and now we have to recalibrate the frequency again."



Tapping his combadge Sorripto spoke.



"Captain this is Sorripto in main engineering. I am reading over the specs for the anomaly. Our current shields are going to be insufficient and based on these reports from Mister Sangliar he seems to be using a similar modulating frequency like the shield frequencies I helped develop when we fought the borg."



Entering some information on his PADD Sorripto continued to speak.



"Sir with your permission I will have to reroute power from several internal secondary subsystems to provide the power needed to install and configure the shield modulations. At worst sir it will set our schedule back three hours but we should be able to get underway and join the fleet on time."

Crist tapped his console in his ready room, "Crist here, do what you need to do Lt Cmdr. I want this ship ready for whatever we encounter."
