“Drop in temperature”
(Cont’d from Maxine’s “Virus”)

Location: SFA EARTH
Scene: Science Lab 2
Stardate: 2.70216.0907

(NRPG: From Maxines post)

"... if we could contain the virus.." she said to
herself, but then spoke louder. Maybe some of her
ideas could be put to use. 

"Is there a way to contain the virus within a field?"
She asked Solomon. Suddenly, her mind began to race
with ideas, with questions. She wasn't exactly
familiar with the facilities, but maybe if she threw
enough ideas out at the people who stood beside her,
something could get done.
"Have we any biohazard suits? And if so, how many?"
She asked Solomon once more. If only they had enough
time to get into the biohazard suits and go from
there.
"Can we contact the medical staff outside the room so
that they can set up a decontamination area for us to
be safely quarantined?" She noted Solomon's skeptical
look. "If we are contaminated in any way, the computer
would not let us leave the area," she concluded

Xon was quiet she watched the cadet aware her mind was
racing it had taken her a moment to run through some
breathing exercises to calm herself and she was well
aware of the situation in its entirety. Still she’d
served in Starfleet long enough to know that anything
could happen and everything could go wrong. She
believed it was called Murphy’s law apparently it was
named after an Irish man. She blinked and considered
the options as calmly as she could from her own point
of view Lieutenant Wright was a security officer,
physically she was still in her prime and she’d done
the basics when she’d been in the academy, some of her
fellow instructors still made sure she kept her hand
in.

Solomon was already answering the young woman,
“biohazard suits are outside the room, we have no way
to get to them and unless we secure that virus no one
can risk opening the door to bring them to us.”

T’ial nodded her head in understanding Xon watched as
the young woman ran through some control exercises and
noticed the relaxing in her breathing. “what do we
know about the virus?” Xon offered, “Is there anything
that we can use to slow it down, give us some time.”

Suddenly the Vulcan nodded, “It has a freezing
temperature of -70 degrees we could change the
atmospheric conditions and slow it down.”

Solomon nodded, “so lets do that?” he asked

“with a freezing temperature that low we’ll all
freeze.” Xon answered with a shake of her head.

Scene: outside the science lab

Lieutenant Commander Jer was a Ferengi, he was also
one of the academy’s highest ranking science
lecturers, the only person above him was the head of
science a much taller human by the name of Commander
Woods who was stood next to his friend and glaring.
The corridor was full of science officers and medical
staff all of whom seemed to be fixated by the door.

Jer nodded as he listened to a junior lieutenant
quickly recap on what was happening. The junior took a
deep breath and then looked uncomfortably at Woods who
glared down at Jer and snapped. “Well?”

“Basically the door won’t hold the contamination we
can put up some forcefields around the room but we’re
not sure how well they’ll hold.”

“So if they don’t control the contamination in there?”

“then the whole university will be infected.” Jer
answered with a nod of his large eared head he rubbed
at a lobe. “someone had better tell them.” 

The junior lieutenant took a step back trying not to
be volunteered for the task. Woods sighed. “OK someone
patch me through to Solomon, and fast I don’t think
they have much time.”

Jer sighed and shook his head, “we can only give them
a few minutes more, once containment of the room is in
danger of being breached we’re going to have to
destroy everything in there.”

The two science officers looked at one another woods
gulped and palmed the communications console into the
room.
