Checking the security locks she found they were still engaged. Checking the video logs she found curiously that the cameras cut out about for two minutes before Andrea’s arrival and the departure of the night shift. Just before they shut down things seemed to be a’ok and running fine, then they registered a scan loss for that time period before coming back on with the results before them. No sign of what had caused the loss of scanning seemed on record.....it was almost....magical!

Sharah wasn’t quite ready to call security into this one yet. =^=Fayth to Bridge. We’ve had an incident down here in the arboretum. The security feeds were cut off for the time we are looking at and then the ships scans cut out at the same time as well. Before I get security down here, is there anything going on I should know about?=^= If this was some sort of traditional thing for the crew she didn’t want to cause trouble. But if someone was breaking into the Lily’s habitat and wasn’t aware of safety protocol that was dangerous. While she waited she also checked to see if the security locks went down at the same time or if they stayed intact.

Over the comms the music of Andy Williams ‘It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year’ was playing. Drudoc unable to turn it off on her end yet, replied. =/\= It seems we’re also experiencing some holiday ‘cheer’ up here on the bridge. Run a diagnostic see if there’s any cause of malfunction before alerting security, try a backup database rebuild from the tertiary core. =/\= She said.

Checking the locks there was a record of their being disengaged without the normal passcode when the scans and cameras went down.

=^=Aye Captain. I will let you know what I find out.=^=

Sharah looked at Andrea, “Alright I’ll get to work on this. Check the rest of the arboretums. Make sure all the plants are okay. But first double check the Lily make sure the environmental controls are still set.”

Sharah headed back to the science labs and started to call Gerard and remembered he was on the bridge for the day. She walked into the general science labs. “Okay people we’ve got a problem. I need my computer science people, now.” She walked over to the main lab area for the computer science team. “We need to run a diagnostic on the arboretum systems and on the sensor and security footage systems for those areas. Someone cut all the systems off and we need to find out if it was someone, a mal function, or something else.” She turned to NE Vulrex, “See if you can reinstate the database from the tertiary computer core. I’m going to go check the rest of labs to make sure there are no issues there. Let me know what you find.”

First she headed into her office to check the main display screen at her desk to see if anything else showed awry there, then she would move to through the labs one by one.

=/\= Lt. Marshall to Lt. Fayth - could you stop by Sickbay when you have a moment? I need to show you something.=/\=

Sharah skidded to a halt on her way to check the labs. =^=This if Fayth, doctor. I’ll be there as soon as I can. Fayth out.=^= What in the world?

=^=Lt Fayth to En Riley. I’m needed up in sickbay. I need you to check all the labs on the ship to make sure everything is working right. Make sure their security measures and data have been recording properly for the last 24 hours.=^=

There was an alarm from the upgraded systems on the Lilly’s enclosure As the flower began to thrash about now noticing the “decorations” It began to thrash about Not liking this it, of course, started snapping at the decorations something would have to be done quickly

Sharah walked back in as the alarms started going off. She jogged the rest of the way to the enclosure and watched feeling a little helpless. “Yeah Bad Boy I wouldn’t like it either.” She turned to Andrea, “Can you go down to Arboretum 3 and set up a quarantine area. There are some plants from the medical lab coming down and until I know what happened to them I don’t want them around anyone or anything biological.”

Andrea nodded more than happy to let the CSO deal with the extremely violent Frost lily.

Sharah stood there watching. It was never going to let her climb up there and remove the stuff. She grabbed a tricorder and entered the airlock. She suited up, having forgotten the nasal inhibitor and fought with her gag reflex for a moment. Then she entered staying near the door. She used the tricorder to try and get a reading of the lily along with the ‘decorations.’ Dodging the angry thing that was simply lashing out every which way she got the readings and then backed out the door. The way it was thrashing it was going to break the walls.

She removed the suit, waited for the airlock to pressurize to normal temperature and then exited. =^=Fayth to Jackson. Chief I’m sending some readings to your console. The first is the last normal readings for the Frost Lily habitat. The second is from just now. Someone has decided to throw holiday decorations in there with it and it’s not safe to go in and actually physically remove them. Do you think you could compare these and try to beam the stuff out?=^=

=^=I can try Lt. Stand by=^=

Lt jg Fayth, CSO

Attempting to restore back ups from the third core was a success, playing the logs showed a time red-white plump suited figure phase into the arboretum in a flash of light then in another flash the decorations appeared on the plants. Then looking at one of the cameras on audio was picked up ‘ho ho ho happy holidays!’ the mystery figure said.

Thankfully scans of the decorations were easy to isolate and it would be child’s play to beam them off the plants.

OOC: I’ll make another thread for the lab checks!

GM CockRoach
=^=Jackson, if this works, send that stuff straight to the recycler. It’s covered in Frost Lily nectar and it’s caustic. It will burn through most things. So get rid of it. It won’t be safe to use anywhere else.=^=

=^=Aye Lt. Thanks for the heads up.=^= Jackson replied. Grateful for the warning before that stuff hit his transporter pad. Chief Jackson input the two scans made some adjustments and a moment later the blue shimmer of the transporter engulfed the Frost Lily and then the lily reappeared no longer covered in holiday finery and then sending what was left to the recycler where it was safely consumed and stored as replicator rations.

Sharah watched the Frost lily to see if it was going to calm down now. If it didn’t she wasn’t sure what she would do. Maybe a forcefield to stop it from destroying the habitat until it wore itself out. She wasn’t sure. While she waited to see what would happen she checked the security feeds. Oh crap. =^=Fayth to Andone. It appears we have either a talented prankster or an intruder on board. I’m sending the file to Trainor’s station on the bridge now. I’m on my way there.=^= She sent the security feed to Trainor.

She looked around and motioned to NCivillian Snowman, “Keep an eye on the Frost Lily. Do the best you can with it. I have to go to the bridge.”

The moment the decorations were removed from the Lilly it began to calm down though it was still clearly very agitated Maybe an Early Hibernation was in order
