After Gustav and the others had finished and was satisfied with the
simulation Gustav contacted Commander Ohmsford.

+taps+ Lieutenant Kroitzer to Commander Ohmsford

Bren was alone on the Main Bridge tapping away at the MSD display when
his combadge chirruped.

"Ohmsford here," he replied, tapping his badge. "How can I help you,
Lieutenant?"

"I'm contacting you to report that the warp drive, transporters and
tractor beam are now fully operational, and that all minor engineering
works will be completed within the hour" Gustav said proud of the
engineering team for working so hard all this time.

Bren, surprised, stopped what he was doing. "That's quite impressive,
Lieutenant. You managed to finish up sooner than I expected."

"I had a good team behind me sir" Gustav said "how are things
progressing on your end?" he added.

"The internal sensors are almost fully online. I'm busy rerouting the
available systems to the bridge and the Master Systems Display," Bren
replied.

"Great sir.....any idea when we will be able to take the ship out for
a bit of a joy ride?". Gustav asked wanting test out the new systems
installed on the drive.

"It shouldn't be too long now, Lieutenant," Bren replied as he
accessed a systems list on the MSD. "Within the next two hours she
should be ready for a warp flight test, then we can see if she's ready
for the great unknown. How does that sound?"

"Sounds good sir, if there is any way I can help seed things up then
just tell me?." Gustav said, after a week of nearly constant work he
was eager to get underway, he wanted to get back to Unity and back to
Mimi.

"I think a thorough diagnostic on the internal sensors can help
eliminate any remaining teething problems," Bren suggested. He was
just as eager to get to Unity to see Liev, who'd been stationed there
since the base opened. "Then everything should be fine."

"Copy that Commander, I'll get on it right away then report to the
bridge before we launch". Gustav said already moving to start more
work.

"See you in a few, Lieutenant," Bren said as he continued to work on the MSD.

"Aye sir" was Gustav's response as he ran the diagnostic on the
internal sensors.

After the diagnostic results showed after about an hour on the console
in front of him Gustav looked over the results "Hmmm......the sensors
power are fluctuating on deck five" Gustav said to himself while
tracking down the problem, a power relay by holodeck 2, {I'll fix that
on my way to the bridge} picking up what he needed Gustav made his way
to deck 5.

The relay had only taken about 30 minutes to fix, just a faulty
connection, after Gustav had packed his work gear up he headed to the
bridge, handing his kit to a passing engineer and asking him to put it
back in storage.

Upon entering the bridge Gustav reported to Bren and handed him his
full report of the work done on the ship since his arrival minus his
work on the power relay, {I'm glad that I added to the report every
night after knocking off my shift} he then took his position at the
engineering station on the bridge.
