Mission: The Game is Afoot
Location: USS Chuck Norris

"Yes sir", the security personnel states.
"You should rest in bed for at least a few more days. That virus really did a number on you", says the doctor. "However, my readings are showing some inconsistencies that I should ask you about."
"No you shouldn't doctor. Plus, I don't give a damn. The ship is obviously under attack, and you want me to sit here while its being bored. Smart move doc."
As Collier begins to get up, the doc rushes over.
"I said rest. I don't have to remind you that I outrank you on this ship when it comes to medical." Now, sit.."
"No you don't. Now, move before I make you. If I do that, you would be in even worse shape than when I was... under the "virus".
Collier gets up, shoves past the doctor, reaches for the spot his starfleet phaser is on, and nothing. Dammit. And I don't have the time to go to the armory.
"Collier to security, come in."
"Yes sir, we're almost to the bridge sir."
"Good good. Have you passed the armory yet?"
"Yes sir, you want us to go back there?"
"No no. carry on to the bridge. I'll see you there, Collier out."
"Twiddlesticks."
He looks back to see the doc. The doc stormed off to a surgical table and began preparing.
Turning around, he struts to the door, it opens right before he goes through it, and closing after he exits.
He rushes for the maintenence shift, opens the door, and reaches for the ladder. The second he touches it, he feels a sharp, heavy pain, and he falls to the ground. His brain attemps to clear, then it halts. And the pain dissapears.
Thinking of the more pressing matter, he gets up, and quickly climbs the ladder to the first floor.
He turns around, and quickly exists the shift, turning for the bridge.
He sees the security detail and meets up with them. The second he gets to them, he tells 3 of them to go to the other entrance, while 2 stay with him.
Before we enter, one says, "Sir, where's your phaser?"
Collier murmers, "oh nuts."
His liquid metal activates and forms into an arm phaser.
The two security personnel look at him with slight concern, then get ready.
Collier taps his comm badge. "Security team 2."
"Sir."
"Now."
And both teams begin to unlock their doors.
