Nalie pulls up the message on her console.
"Nalie here, go ahead."

The face of an older man appears with Vice Admiral pips.
"Status report, Lieutenant."

Nalie frowns slightly and uses the second screen to attempt to pull up information about her caller.
"I'm sorry, who is this?"

The man raises an eyebrow.
"Not the response I was expecting...Admiral William Ross, Lieutenant. What is the status of the Protector?"

"My apologies sir. I wasn't expecting a call from outside outside Starbase. The protector is about 20% complete, with major structural reconstruction completed and both internal installation and external hull attachment scheduled for the next week or two."

Ross furrows his brow.
"What's your current ETA on it being spaceworthy? I need the minimum Lieutenant...we are dealing with a crisis situation."

Nalie frowns even more, clearly unaccustomed to sudden change in her schedule.
"If I mandate double shifts for everyone, pull engineers off other refit projects, and commandeer all three industrial replicators, we can have it done in... two weeks? That won't give us any time for testing though."

Ross shakes his head.
"That's still too much time...make sure the starbase engineering staff are briefed and up to date on what is to be done. Your crew may be called upon to use another ship. This would be an all hands on deck situation, Lieutenant...I realize this isn't ideal in the middle of extensive repairs."

Nalie shudders at the implications of what Ross just said.
"Sir, with respect, I haven't been away from the Starbase in four years. Retrofits are what I do..."

Ross levels his gaze at Nalie.
"Lieutenant...do you want to work on retrofits or do you want to be a chief engineer?"

Nalie averts her eyes.
"What I want isn't relevant, sir. I'll do what needs to be done."

Ross nods, his facial expression softening a bit.
"I will be arriving at the starbase to brief your commanding officer. For now, your repairs are business as usual. Good luck, Lieutenant."
The transmission ends, his face replaced with the Project Avalon logo.

Nalie slumps as the screen goes blank, her legs going weak. She struggles for several long moments to regain her composure. After a minute or two, she straightens and continues work as if nothing had happened.

A buzz is sounded from the door as Desiree and Cathy arrives, hoping to be of use to the Orion, and of course Desiree is curious of how the poor little girl is doing.
