"Okay...here you go."
A display appears before Nalie with a list of files on various storage devices.

"Right, okay."
Nalie looks over the list, then reaches over and activates her comm system.
"Nalie to Protector. I need a data storage specialist over here, or at least someone who knows the backend of computers."

The familiar voice of Dalby Kara comes over Nalie's combadge.
=^= "We'll send one right away m'am. How is it going?"

Having recovered the Tranquility Station storage drives and connected them to an isolated database, a portion of the Protector's Engineering staff worked to restore HERA and her corrupted data files. After about a day, Nalie entered the combined engineering/science lab and approached the interface.
"What's our status?"

Ensign Obihr th'Eryvis looks up from his console next to the interface.
"At this point it is obvious that someone intentionally attempted to wipe this program. It looks like it was done in a way that makes recovery possible...there was no attempt at any sort of secure deletion."
"We are actively working on restoring the files but it's a matter of time and energy at this point."

Nalie glances at his console as she listens to the report. When he finishes, she nods and focuses her attention on him.
"That sounds about like I expected. Forward everything you do recover to Lieutenant Hamilton and me. I know it's probably a long shot, but do you have any indication of who tried to wipe the data?"

The Andorian shakes his head.
"Whoever did it did so locally. If I'm able to retrieve the directory database I'll be able to give you a better answer."

Nalie nods and glances toward the door.
"If you aren't already, keep her offline until you've had a chance to recover what you can. I don't want to risk damaging the files further by having her active and trying to access already damaged files."

"Ma'am...this could be an...extensive process. How long are we going to leave...her...it...offline?"

Nalie considers for a moment before responding.
"I'll leave that up to you, since you have expertise here. If you think you can have her online without jeopardizing the data storage, then go ahead."

"We can isolate her access and give her full control to the undamaged sectors."

Nalie nods, content with the available options for the moment.
"Do it. I'll check on you in a few hours."

"Understood. We'll get her read only access as we clean up the damaged sectors."

The next morning, Nalie walks into the engineering lab. She's wearing her armor again, with one notable exception: the right gauntlet is missing. Instead, she wears only the armored glove that completed the under-armored portion of the suit. Her expression is one of forced cheerfulness, but her eyes tell a story of a night devoid of sleep or reprieve. As she steps across the room, waves of annoyance flow from her.
"Ensign. Obihr. What part of "isolated" was not clear in my orders?"

The young Andorian looks up at her, a mix of fear and regret fills his eyes.
"M-ma'am, the data recovery was going well...and she, HERA...she really wanted to see you. I was observing the data flow during the remote test to make sure she er HERA wasn't accessing any critical systems."
