======= Main infirmary, SB 234: UNITY

It took me almost five minutes continuous work with the
dermal regenerator on LT. Wargrave to remove all the nastry
scratches from his back. He came in half an hour ago, with
his back looking like one of a hedgehog. His explanation was
funny and I had to do my best not to laugh. He was with his
gf in holodeck 24, enjoying a wild western (Earth) scenario,
when she jumped on him in a romantic rush … and he landed
with his back on a really big cactus plant. Who said that
love hurts?
The entry door hissed open and a man clad in command red
walked in, followed close by a couple of marines armed with
phaser rifles. His uniform was tipped with gold edges – a
flagg officer's uniform. There were just two flag officers
stationed on UNITY and General Sharpe was a marine and off
the station. It was of course Guzman who entered the
informary and walked through the place like he owned it.
{Well} I thought. In a certain way, he really owned the
place, being the Task Forco CO, but admitting the truth, I
never liked the man very much. It must be said that I know
Guzman for several years, in fact from the times he was just
a mere Commander and XO of the USS Chimera. He seemed always
somewhat distant and conceited, with his expressions
announcing that 'he' is the boss and 'you' are just a common
crewman.
Most of the visitors in the infirmary wait for a doctor to
address their need, but not Guzman. He walked straight to
the biobed of LT. Mumacik and only once arriving there, he
looked for someone to address. He wasn't far from me and I
could walk over and offer assistance, but honestly, such an
action was reserved for those wanting to
climb-the-rank-ladder then ordinary guy, so I just went on
with my work on LT. Wargrave and watched the events.
Finally, doctor T'Vel walked towards Guzman.
"Good day, Admiral" T'Vel said, "how can I help you?"
"Greetings" Guzman replied, "is Commander Summers here?"
T'Vel shook her head and replied: "No, she isn't on duty
this morning. Shall I call her?"
{Of course} I thought, {when THE Admiral ask for someone,
the phrase not on duty isn't an answer. Like anyone here
would be here just to please him}
Guzman shook his head and said: "No, do not bother. I am
here to see after LT. Mumacik. How is he?"
T'Vel showed Guzman closer to the biobed and explained: "He
suffered major burns and inner organ injuries, as you know,
sir. All his injuries were addressed and heal with great
speed, far better then medical science would predict. Exact
reasons are unknown for now. But there is one problem we
have not been able to address yet …"
The doctor was interrupted by Mumacik. I have to admit that
LT. Mumacik is yet an another officer that was not up to my
taste. He was the Chief of fleet level security and
effectcive the Chief of all security on UNITY and he was
{when I should believe all the tales told) a real pain in
the ass for many on board. He was a real beaurocrat and
sticked to the rules like a probe of slime mud on a wall.
One was missing a single signature on a list of 20 pages
length and he would send you off to get that last signature
without any mercy. Archibald from science told me once that
a friend of his from Aldebaran send him two bottles of
Romulan ale and Mumacik send a whole security team to
confiscate the bottles and to question him about possible
connections to Tal'shiar for half an hour.
"Good day, Admiral Guzman" Mumacik said, "can I please
inquire about the status of the explosives cargo bay three
investigation?"
A smile appeared on Guzman's lips and he said: "We are
working on it, Lieutenant. Captain Rogers identified a
possible cover organization of those terrorists".
I knew what to expect to come next and looked away. It took
Mumacik just a moment to say:
"Good day, Admiral Guzman" Mumacik said, "can I please
inquire about the status of the explosives cargo bay three
investigation?"
This time, Guzman looked quite puzzled and he replied: "As I
said, Captain Trent has a hot clue and is working on the
case."
It was T'Vel who said: "Admiral, I have to inform you that
Lieutenant Mumacik os suffering ftom …"
She was interrupted by Mumacik was asked again: "Good day,
Admiral Guzman" Mumacik said, "can I please inquire about
the status of the explosives cargo bay three investigation?"
"… repetitive short time memory losses." T'Vel ended, "We
still do not know the reason for this condition"
"Damn" Guzman cursed, "I hoped to have him back on duty
soon"
"Good day, Admiral Guzman" Mumacik said, "can I please
inquire about the status of the explosives cargo bay three
investigation?"
T'Vel shook her head: "I am afraid it wont be possible, sir"
she said.
