[snip]Before Ranlei could say anything, Miz’uki had the Panel off. Some of the Roaches that had been sitting comfortably on the access panel, while others were moving about freely inside the machine, the ones on the panel, however, jumped out right into the felines face. There was a shriek of horror, followed by all the angry feline noises as Miz’uki ran from the grav lift, and up a stack of containers. Where, standing on all fours, her back arched, ears laying flat, tail on end and puffed up, the Chief Engineer hissed and spat angerly. “KILL THEM, KILL THEM, KILL THEM, KILL THEM, KILL THEM!!!” she shouted her voice tense with fear.

The CE’s reaction made Ranlei backpedal three steps and drop the tricorder. She groaned internally as she recognized the insects, living as she had on a colony that supplied services to a trade hub Ranlei had seen colonies of these things before. She tapped her commbadge and said, =^=Security. We have a infestation of electronics disrupting insects on board. Be advised and apply intruder countermeasures.=^=, the temptation to stomp on or phaser the bugs was near overwhelming but Ranlei did neither.
To the Ne Ensign she said “Seal the bay put up emergency forcefields if they are in one thing they are in everything in this room and likely every system on the ship. But we will hope we caught them before they spread.”, then turning to the CE she said, “Not sure how the biofilter didn’t catch them mam but this is why you never dock airlock to airlock with anyone.”

”..Aye ma’am, area secured..” said one of the NEs nearby who raised to do so. If further scans were performed no other signs of the roaches were showing up beyond the anti-grav sled.
Meanwhile the roaches inside the sled were trying to burrow away from the ligth from the open panel. The ones that had gotten out were scurrying for cover by nearby shelves. Then Miz’uki would feel something on her lower back and out on her tail. Glancing back and down she would find a smaller of the roaches riding out the frantic movements of its ride on her tail! The little green-silver eyes beady looking up at her in reply.

Miz’uki had not been paying attention to what anyone else was saying she was panicking then she felt the tickle on her tail looking back she saw her dreaded fear “THERE IS ONE ON MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!” she shrieked “GET IT OFF, GET IT OFF, GET IT OFFFFFFFFFFFF!!!!” Miz’uki began to roll around on the top of the containers which being empty began to shake about and soon were sent toppling since they were empty they were not a danger to any of the ensigns Miz’uki continued to roll around the floor of the cargo bay out of her mind with fear

The Risan Roach on Miz’uki ended up getting squished leaving a gooey dead crunchy body on her lower back and upper tail. The rest of the roaches had since fled to the dark corners of the bay but since the room was sealed they had no other way out. Getting rid of them by normal means of hand pick up would likely take forever, a more sensible recording on record was to use a series of harmless sonic pulses to corral them into one spot then contain them, then use a modified container to scope them up. Due to their bodies interference with electronics transporting was possible but it would kill them, an option to be sure depending if they felt the Roaches could be a threat.

OOC: Pasting in Ranlei’s split
Ranlei sympathised with the CE bugs didn’t bother her but the Ooze had freaked her into unconciousness. The subject of her fainting twice had become a running joke on the ship. Ah well who cares if they are laughing at me they aren’t plotting me downfall. ” HOLD STILL!”she barked at the Catain rollong about. She had no interest in command. But four years in a Military School and another four at Starfleet academy had left Ranlei with the instincts if not the respect for the military hierarchy a soldier required. On second thought it wasn’t the Ooze that had freaked her. It was what the Ooze was eating. “It’s dead mam you can relax they run from light so your safe as long as you avoid touching anything. Once we evacuate this room we can introduce a mild sporific into the environment to knock them out. Collect them then let life sciences play scientist wuth them till we find a place they belong.”, she said in soothing tones while stroking the CE’s fur in the manner her favorite Caitan toy at the academy couldn’t resist.”

It was at this point that Miz’uki tired from her panic attack she was laying on the floor of the cargo bay panting and just staring up at the Cargo bay ceiling trying to calm herself down and recollect her thoughts

Arthur entered the cargo bay at this point, having responded to the call for security. “Are you alright? How did these things get on board?”
Arthur Jones, Son of Ruk
Miz’uki seemed to calm down with the stroking and calming voice of her Junior officer “j…j…just keep them away from me…” she sobbed laying on the floor of the cargo bay right under one of the big lights
