Ranlei looked thoughtful. “Well it’s fortunate for you that someone in intelligence thought a Orion woman might make a good intelligence asset. Your also fortunate that after they trained me they realised the flaw in their assumptions. I realise your all under a strain and reacted to a threatening event and I am sorry for any bruised egos. It is fairly common for such devices to be linked to a timer so that they destroy themselves if they don’t report after a reasonable amount of time. So I needed answers imediately.”, she said her German accent fairly evident. “It is likely that it would of already destroyed itself if it wasn’t in stasis doctor. So good thinking there.”, and she looked over at Lt. Starr, “Did you happen to take the bomb disposal course in the academy or at any other time sir?

“Third year of my course, in fact,” Simon replied, taking a look over the device. “It doesn’t looked rigged to explode, but that doesn’t mean anything, just the act of scanning such a thing could be a trigger, but it should be safe in this stasis field, at least if it isn’t an EMP based device,” he said. Simon knew that the ship had better equipment for such things and said out. “Computer, do a quiet scan of the device currently within Engineering Statis Field 1, and report any ordinance that it contains, along with basic construction,” he said to the Ship’s Computer.

OOC: Since i’ll be using this as part of a later sim i’ll reply using computer

=/\= No ordinance is detected within the scanned device =/\= The computer replied. Showing there was no bombs in effect

“Well the good news is, it isn’t going to blow up in our faces, so let’s see what we can find out about it’s origins,” Simon responded to the computer’s answer, pulling out his security tricorder to investigate the device, looking for any commonalities in design to both Federation member worlds, and non-member worlds that the Federation knew about and had data on.

Trax looked on from a safe distance as they dealt with the device.

Ranlei began the task of learning more about the device with caution. While it had been scanned she didn’t quite trust the results a spy device really ought to be harder to deal with than this thing had proven to be so far. So she looked it over with her own eyes just in case something looked wrong. “Imay be being a tad suspicios Lt. But it seems strange that this device was so easily captured. That it does not seem to be shielded from scans at all. Either this was sent by a very ineot spy. Or it’s purpose was not really to spy but to be caught and send a message or frighten the doctor. Also lt. Star how did it get on the ship in the first place? Was it made onboard? Was it smuggled on board? Either option implies a member of the crew is possible working as a agent. “, she kept her voice low to avoid her theory alarming the CMO further.

“It could have been placed while we were docked as well, there’s many possibilities. Until we know what it is, those question’s answers have more than one possibility,” Simon replied factually in his thick southern british accent. “Once we know that, then we can think of those questions next, don’t worry - I fully intend to find out. The other question is why?” he said. “But let’s deal with these things one at a time,” he suggested.

Ranlei looked over at the security chief and raised an eyebrow. “Dawns on me that you might not want me working on this. I am new onboard, I am trained by Starfleet intelligence, and being an engineer they focused their training mostly on opening locks, demolitions and infiltration. The last because of my species sir. The doctor pointed out the the Syndicate might be involved. I suspect not as this seems far to easily thwarted. But once news gets out about this I’m going to be everyones number one suspect simply because I am a Orion. Fact is you probably ought to arrest me now. SAve me from listening to wils whispering and speculation every time I walk past someone. I won’t hold it against you if you do sir. It would hardly be the first time I was in a cell simply because my skin is Green. Funny story, well not really for me but when The Federation office od socialy services and child welfare took me on as a charge of the state they named me Ranlei Greene. Funny huh. I don’t use the Greene part of the name though. But it is a reminder that nobody is going to fail to notice me anytime theres a crime and I’m nearby.”, she had stopped smiling while saying that and had not stopped working on the device assuming her visual inspection and scans indicated no hazards she would take the access hatches off slowly one step at a tile letting Lt. Starr see her every move.

Trax felt a change in the room as he stood and heard the comments even when they did not expect him too. “Lt Starr before you decide one way or another about Ensign Greene here. I want it noted that I don’t feel any ill intent from her at all.” Trax commented to the officers. “It could be maybe a ruse to make her the scapegoat. As the CMO disappears? She gets the blame and the Orion syndicate gets away smelling like roses.” Trax commented sincerely to them both.

Ranlei just kept disassembling the thing being careful not to set off any devices that would wipe it’s memory or otherwise cause it to render itself inert. As s3he worked she spoke, “Well I appreciate the vote of confidence from both of you. But I will note that I was more thinking you need to protect me from the crew than protect the ship from me. As your aware Lt. I recently was knocked out and Transported locked in a environmental suit simply because my skin is Green.”, she stopped working a moment as a wave of panic rose at the memory. Alittle paler and starting to sweat she returned to work with a sigh then shifted topics. “In future doctor I prefer you not invade my head. Or read my emotional state. My species was genetically engineered a long time ago to have certain emotional traits easily triggered. It would be embarrassing for both of us should you react to one of my episodes. I can usually control my own responces because of familiarity with my own being. At least I can once I am aware I have been triggered. Also doctor never call me anything but Ranlei. Greene is technically my last name. But it was not the family name of anyone on the station It was and is a cruel joke that I resent deeply.”,

Ooc: details I need to know about the device.
-Metallurgy and materials used to create it and who uses them.
-how deep do I have to dig before I can access it’s3 computer, memory and logs. Qis this electronics tech used by any specific species or political entity.

OOC: Dave you can fill in these requested details for now since this is your side sim if you need help just ask me also if Dave and the COS too could join the transporter room thread there to move the main sim along that’d be great thanks

“To elevate your fears Enisgn I only read surface thoughts. I would never intrude on your main thoughts or probing without permission. And I appreciate the warning its most appreciated.” Trax said calmly knowning she was not attacking him this round. “And I do remember your condition when you arrived here and I am sorry to hear that people are so cruel.” Trax said kindl to her.

Occ: One it won’t take long to access the computer and its memory banks. Most of the tech is a common material and composites. Durable and lightweight. Micro circuitry and possible nanotech. with a camera and receiver to record information along with sensors. A mirco fusion power source and minor shielding. Here lately there being used by (open) mercenaries and some have been known to be Orion Syndicate spying and possible retrieval devices as well. with micro transporter tagging as well.

After looking for and disabling any transmitter, any secondary transmitter, sound or visual and holographic recorders. Ranlei dug deeper into the device.
Ranlei stopped her digging and hrmphed, “Someone went out of their way to use generic technologys used by pretty much everyone. I’ll go through it chip by chip, before I’m done but it’s seeming to be generic and likely not going to learn anything new based of what it’s made of sirs. We can only hope the software tells us a bit more. “, and she bypassed the usual plug ins under the theory they ought to be setup so that once mission instructions were uploaded any attempt to access would cause it to wipe it’s memory. “Have you irritated any elementary school students Doctor? I build something like this as a project at age 6 to hover over my shoulder while I did mock news reports. I had asperations of being a news reporter. Of course that lasted all of a afternoon till it was destroyed by a foster sister.”, she still took precautions as she coppied everything from the device into a pad. And handed it to Lt Starr. She checked for secondary power backups before disabling power completely. ” Computers, programing and repair were my academy focus. So if you like I can disect the program as well. I doubt anyone purposely tried to frame me. For one thing that would require knowing I have Intelligence training which is so far known only to Starfleet Intelligence. And those of you in this room who I told because you needed to know. I kind of embarrassed people in Intelligence by telling them just what My opinion of their typical mission profile for me was.So as you can Imagine I am here to get me as far from Federation Ineligence interests as possible.”, and she twirled the lock of hair that usually fell out of place round her finger then untwirlled it and tucked it behind her ear where it
