“AHHHHHH!” Kai screamed like a girl - then realizing that she was actually a hologram and that everyone in the safe zone were looking at him, Oliver tried to hide his red blushed face and whispering he said “sorry.”
“Ah-Ah ah… ah! See? It is a hologram. Nothing to worry- Ah…!”
luckily for Kai he hadn’t any heartache and was still survivor of the pretty funny situation.
“No one advised me we had a hologram onboard!” He raged

Ensign Kai O. Kingstone - Scientist

“And no one told me that hologram is a girl I know. She helped deliver my baby and informed my husband he was a baby daddy ten minutes before I was going to walk down the aisle,” Lexi summarized her interactions with the persona of the hologram in about twenty words. “Anyway that is not the issue,” she waved her hands about. “The issue is getting this situation under control before the next kaboom. It’s like we are taking two steps backward for every step forward. We need to find some way to get ahead of the situation,” Lexi let out a long breath through her lips that showed her frustration level.

“Well can’t we beam it out into space now that we know the boom cycle,” Jensen scratched his chin. “I mean it is just slime for the next eighteen minutes and twelve seconds.”

Lexi

“Probably we could. So… I’m going to prepare the transporter, should I?” He asked to Lexi, when an improbable a new figure appeared and joined them. He was called Vladar, someone that Kai never saw, but seemed young as him. He wore the classic yellow uniform, and his ranks were the same as his.

In a newly minted Starfleet uniform, Dan came to the problem area Captain Bordeaux had directed him to investigate. “Oh what fresh hell is this?” he came up behind the scientists. “Vladar. Security. You didn’t call, but… clearly you need help. What exactly is this stuff, what does it do, and is anyone injured?”

-Ensign Dan Vladar, Security

“Worry not, Mr. Vladar, I say correctly? Uhm… this is kinda a weird experiment.” Kai said with some goo everywhere as he crouched and searched for his tricorder in the mess “No one is injured - I-I mean for now.”
Jensen was right behind him and his head was still a bit shaky from the explosion he previously experienced. To avoid denying his mate affirmation he just faked to be alright, thinking still “welp… My head still hurts.”

Ensign Kai O. Kingstone - Scientist

OOC: WHOOPS made a confusion! I’m scientist not a CSO. Sorry MotherHen for stealing your title for a minute. Ehehe Mr. Sean and Ari confused me.

Dan leaned over Kai, making his full 6’5” present. “For now? No one is injured for now? What did you make?” he looked around at the mess of a room. “It already looks like some sort of grenade went off in here!”

-Ensign Dan Vladar, Security

“Some girl named Kate but she really didn’t get hurt because she a ship’s hologram. I’m Lexi Robins,” she stuck out her hand answering the rhetorical question of who is hurt.

“As to what is going on,” Lexi looked at Kai. Sighing deeply she made a gesture towards her fellow science officer. “Wanna take this over,” she let out a small laugh.

“To be honest,” Kai spoke thinking “I don’t know very well the origin about this… stuff.” He appointed looking Vladar with his hands on his waist “as you, fellow mate, I was walking down this corridor to take my check-in and they just put me in this situation. Oh oh, what a damn and tremendous situation.”

In the meanwhile he went over a console and was typing stuff already. Whether they were going to transport that thing somewhere out the ship or find another way to toggle that goo, Kai didn’t wanted to lose time between any action, and so he programmed a transporter beam that would have transported the goo, and probably some items of the lab, out of the ship if Lexi and the crew wanted “we just know, that this slimy… organism? Explodes within 20 minutes, reacting to sounds and when it KABOOM, we have more of it. Also it is good for the skin.”

Ensign Kai O. Kingstone - Scientist

“It does. It really does,” Lexi agreed rubbing her hands a bit. ” They were super soft, like baby soft. Aside from the exploding from the jar every time you opened it someone could make a mint if they sold this.”

Lexi Robbins

“Ahahah! Nice this one. Weirdly enough this situation remembers me something happened with my grandma. She found a tribble somewhere stuck in her house,” Kai giggled “and when she decided she wanted to keep it, she probably gave it some food. Then time a day or two, you would enter the house full of tribbles! Ah! I love those animals.”

As he ended typing the code in the computer, Kai gave a look at the time on his PaDD: T minus 3 minutes - “Okay guys, we have three minutes! Then everything gets Kaboom again. So I’ve prepared the transporter and whether you want to expunge this stuff, it should do! Also, if I find a way to avoid those thing exploding, I might make a lot of profits… Hmmm”
Space Green Goo Cream, a nice natural product, that will help your skin to shine again!

Ensign Kai O. Kingstone - Scientist

“You’re right,” Lexi said running across the room to get a sample jar. They knew how to make more so they only needed a tiny amount to sample that wasn’t going to get beamed into deep space. Scooping up a sample the was way too small for the container she tightened the lid and moved to the safety zone Kai had created earlier.

Looking at her colleague she shrugged. “We need to keep some and there is more than enough room to contain the kaboom. Then we have twenty minutes to get it to the main science lab, slap it in a sound dampening field, and then we can study it safely this time. Valder,” Lexi motioned him to her side. “I would come over here or you will be picking goo out of places you might not want to mention,” she pointed at the timer ticking down from thirty seconds.

Captain Kelly Bordeaux

Dan moved into the safe zone. “I’m used to doing this with grenades, not gelatin.”

-Ensign Dan Vladar, Security

“Oh, you don’t eat it. You rub it in like this,” Lexi pulled a glop off her pant leg and massaged it onto the back of his hand. Smooth as a baby’s bottom. You know we could make a male version to sell. Something with a name like Grenade Grease: It will blow years off your hands,” she joked as the transporters whisked it away from the deck before the explosion. The only residual trace of Kai’s and Lexi’s three-hour adventure was the sealed glass jar that now held a thick viscous gelatin which was reacting like lava.”

Lt. Lexi Robins Science

“Ahah! It would be funny if that hologram-kinda person, came back again. Well, I hope she does not get blown up again! Also, where are the sound dampeners, hmm…” as he took his PaDD he looked the registry of the items in the lab: Sound Dampeners Field Generator, click. “What, we have even some Marbles circuit for kids, in the lab?”
Should be there… somewhere here… “AH-AH! Ok found it, now I know where to search.”
But something blocked him from joying too much - the container I-203 was located under that whole slime mess, and was blocked there as their hope to reach it before the time.
“Oh man…” he moaned, letting his arms free fall on his flanks.

Ensign Kai O. Kingstone - Scientist

Dan pulled up his left sleeve, revealing a metal prosthesis. “What do you need and from where?”

-Ensign Dan Vladar, Security

“Oh wew!” He exclaimed “what’s that?”
Kai was so curious of that sort of metallic prosthesis. The last time he saw someone with that kind of replacement was on Tyra II. As he was told, this dude lost his leg because he accidentally used a hand laser cutter without knowing it was charged and functional. “Nevermind, ahem, so you see that kind closet?” He pointed the lowest closet of the first bench before the first entrance to the lab “I need the container labeled I-203. There are the sound dampeners devices. The problem is, that we have hundreds of kilos of slime on that bench and to be honest, it will be hard even with that prosthesis.” He concluded looking both Lexi and Vladar.

Ensign Kai O. Kingstone - Scientist

Dan quietly explained to Kai, “I was a Marine. A hand grenade landed… well, too close. When I woke up, a surgeon had attached this.”

“Yeah,” Lexi said slowly looking at Vladar’s arm. The idea of the slime blowing apart and shorting out the Borg circuitry now had a whole other meaning. If the point of weaponizing the goo was to take out electronic and bionic parts, she sure didn’t want to test out the theory on Vladar. “Okay so you are out of the retrieval,” she ran her fingers through her hair. At some point, everyone called in for reinforcements during any war. This might be the time to call in for that help.

Tapping her comm badge, Lexi took a deep breath and forced a fake smile. The man on the other end would not see it but it helped her try to keep a happy, upbeat tone. =/\= Jacen....watcha doing,=/\= she said in a slightly sing songy tone.

Lt. Lexi Robins

Jacen sat in his quarters in his evening wear as he heard the chime come up. It was lateish, his shift had ended about two hours ago as had settled for the evening. Sitting on his couch he had a holovid movie going of his favorite Christmas movie, Die Hard as he sighed deeply. “Computer pause film.” he said before he hit his combadge that was on the end table.

=/\=If you haven’t blown up a portion of the ship I don’t want to hear about it Lieutenant Robins… go round up the breakfast club of Chris, Ian, and yourself and just make redo the paint of any damaged panels…=/\= Jacen said with an eye roll. He regretted befriending Ian’s old academy friends. He certainly didn’t need more people in his life to ask him to do everything at the drop of a dime. He already created their perfect wedding so he figured they owed him.

Drayke, CE

“Wew, fast response, I guess” Kai commented. It was the first time that he actually heard the CE: from the voice he couldn’t say too much about his character, but the manly voice almost scared him as he was threatening the crew to make the ship a trap if they did not payed attention.

=/\=About that.....yeaahhhhhhh,=/\= Lexi slowly drew out the words not sure how to keep the conversation going. She knew how to set Ian in his place when he was ticked off and fixing a pissy Chris was easy. She was his wife and just used the oldest currency in the world to get him talking or forgiving her. Jacen was a different beast.

=/\=What in the star of David did you do?=/\= Jacen asked as he waited for the answer, knowing it would be coming.

Kai looked Lexi: her eyes were going everywhere and nowhere, it almost seemed as she was thinking what to say before anything could be said - which in few words… meh it has no sense.
These relationships were still unknown to him, but fortunately the CE and Kai could be whatever form of friendship.
Also he hoped that one day, he could find someone to love, like the others: the marriage stuff interested him a bit.

“Lex we are t-minus 90 seconds before we explode and increase by 3.69 cubic meters volume. The door isn’t protected so anyone coming in is going to get a face full of youth juice,” Jensen growled, “not to mention creating a slipping hazard in the hall. And if it gets in his turbo shaft, we have no idea what that kind of lubrication can do.”

“Why times smelts like butter?” He asked “it seemed nothing!”
Kai immediately tried to find a phaser, something to shoot the slime: they had not time to waste, but more he searched the more he lost - PaDD, tricorder, even his beloved ring was somewhere in the mess. Aww dammit! he thought raged and almost desperate where the heck is the phaser when we need one?!

Ensign Kai O. Kingstone - Scientist

“Probably increase the rise rate by about six times,” Roberts snickered thinking of the tube shooting up more than the required amount of floors.

“Shhhh,” Lexi waved at the two other science officers talking in the background.

Lexi

Dan sighed. First patrol.

Drayke, CE

“I brought aboard a science specimen and it …got away from us. There is a chance it could ooze into your conduits and it exploded in any sound past 10 decibels. It goes inactive then for about twenty minutes. We just need to find a way to get it off the floor and into the specimen jar. And FYI it doesn’t seem to like the frequency of transporters. So many ideas,” Lexi asked biting her lip hesitantly waiting for the Irish powder keg to blow. “Oh and if you can help it....don’t mention this to Chris. He so overreacts at times .”

Lexi Robins.

Moments later, bursting through the door as if on some war march Jacen Drayke entered, shortly behind him a team of Engineers along with EMMA reformed and angry looking as she scanned around. “Where are you Lexi!” Jacen said as he looked around frantically trying to find out where that wife of Chris’s was as he spotted her and her dark hair as he saw her trying to slink away.

“Weren’t them 20 dB?” He questioned by himself, touching his lower lip “anyway, maybe… what if we built a huge airlock to the nearest Airlock. With some sort of dampeners or force field! It may work but also… if the field does deactivate it will be a mess throughout the whole ship.” Kai responded firmly “we could try to irradiate the room with various type of radiation as our last resource.”
The idea to kill these slimy stuff wasn’t the best. But if it was going to evolve into a big problem, well that was better than nothing.

OOC: IM FINALLY RETURNING FROM LOA GUYS!! Hope to restart well and remember what I left behind ;p

Ensign Kai O. Kingstone - Scientist

“Sir, that’s the stuff.” EMMA said, pointing to the specimen jar as if it was going to explode any second again she looked with a since of nervousness.

Drayke, CE/ EMMA

NB. Adjusted the post as it split

“Will you all keep it down. Pretend this is a baby,” Lexi said in a soft tone shaking the jar getting wide-eyed glances and a step back from Jensen and the other crewman. “Oh calm down. Vibrations don’t do anything. It is sound and we need to get that bucket off the ship which is now Jacen’s problem,” she said with a smile. “I think you and I should go to the science lab and try micro samples in a controlled lab to see what we can do with it,” she held the jar up to eye level.

Lexi Robbins.

“I’m gonna pretend you are a baby Lieutenant if you don’t start talking about what this substance is and why it’s short circuiting my officers.... and what is this stuff anyway… who approved any of this?” Jacen demanded as he stared he down, as EMMA came closer as she began to look at some of the readings on the stuff.

“Sir… this is fascinating… if it hadn’t covered me in all of it.” EMMA chimed in as she looked over at Jacen.

“Oh great, so it’s fascinating flubber.” Jacen retorted, he was starting to question Ian’s choice in friends if this girl and her husband were the best he had to offer from the university.
