As the group watched suddenly the flopping tuna fish struggling to breathe in the air without water turned into fried tuna fish in butter served in a slowly spreading pool of smoked almond romesco sauce!!

Cross watched the fish turn to tuna ‘’Hungry as you might be ‘’ she said wondering whether she was hallucination ‘’No one dare touch them or worst eat them ,not even a lick’‘ the CMO tried her best to mean she meant business and no but’s or if’s.

Where is the darn counsellor when you need one!.

“Oh, doc come on! That’s not fair!! It really smells amazing? I wonder if Squire Trelane is involved in this entertainment? ” Jasper asked with a bit of wonder and now starving at all the fish buffet. all you can eat…He thought to himself. As he continued his observations.

“Ahh yes! We done heard all about that there rogue planet of Gothos at the Academy,” said George. “Ayn’ that there Squire Trelane.”

Tinga’s antennae twitched in a manner that indicate amusement.

=^=Thank you. I just had to be certain.=^= she said, =^=The CSO is analyzing the situation now.=^=

=/\= Thank you engineering out! =/\= as jasper closed the channel. “no offense Squire Trelane. ” he said softly to himself as he continued the readings to science. As he tried to keep an eye out of more surprises.

Scans showed the tuna with sauce was quite edible and real, wherever or however it came to be it was sitting now on the dirty engineering room floor wasting away......

Jasper started to beam the tuna to the replicator systems for recycling. “Maybe I should get a plate in there if its still raining fish.” Jasper commented grabbing a massive platter from the replicator to set inside the zone to catch fish. “Jasper shook his head hard. “this is weird but mom and the others would never believe it.” as he recorded the whole issues from the beginning till now as he can show later to others in the science department and others to see.

Down in the Galley on Deck 4, someone would notice the Captain’s Chef in tears. He could have fed Tuna steak to all the officers for several weeks on that fish, if only they had frozen it instead of recycling it as replicator feedstock.

Jasper was wondering if this problem might be technical then more mystical or alien in nature as he started system checks on replicator systems along with ship-wide for possible other causes. He also was checking to see if It could be happening elsewhere on the ship too. Jasper thought casually as he started to check any relevant systems that could cause a strange occurrence like this even the absurd ones.

Checks on systems didnt show this oddity happening anywhere else

The NE still stuck in the forcefields spoke, now just in his underwear “..Can I get out of this yet? I’d like to go get a new uniform, before my underwear turns to Jelly or something!!” He protested.

“I’d be more concerned with the contents of that underwear rather than the cloth itself” The ever-fluid accent of the Chief Scientist came from across engineering. The now Texan scientist walked with his arms filled with bags and long metallic objects and barely enough room to see anything. He stopped next to the group of people and dropped his equipment on the floor “Interesting, has anyone tasted anything yet?” He asked as he set up several sensor poles around the jellified Engineer “If so how did it taste?” He said as he began a detail scan cycle connected to his tricorder.

Scans showed that with the fish removed there was just the sauce left behind, which showed up as actual sauce mess on the engineering room floor. There was on the higher EM bands an odd signal which the tricorder was having a hard time isolating as it was randomized.

Jasper was trying to focus on his work now even harder as the science officers voice kept making Jasper get lost in the man’s voice it was a rather sexy tone and accent. As he shook his head and tried to refocus his efforts on the situation at hand. “We were told by the Doctor that was not allowed to try the fruit or the fish.” Jasper barely got out of his mouth before blushing a bit. “I am now picking up an odd em blimp on the scanners.”

Will looked back at the engineer and smiled “aye, randomized.” He looked back at his instruments “I’m going to set a more wide-spectrum scan frequency, try to isolate the signal. Sauce lad, just stay still for a few more moments. The fish is the sauce and the sauce was the fish… I think.” He tried to explain what he was reading from his sensor scans “At least I hope he shouldn’t move.” He said to himself.

“Feysh in a sauce! Y’all couldn’t have even done thought ov something like that there,” said George. “Should we nahwt tell the Bridge?”
