[QUOTE]Originally posted by JeffKardde: [QB] Star Trek - Gamma Quadrant Ep 006 - Tribunal "You okay?" Marin asked with a smile. Will Lidic winced as he slid off the bio-bed. He had been severely injured in the Gia'nt strike. Surgery and lots of sleep had resulted in Lidic's re-certification of fitness for duty. It would be light duty, but that was better than staring at the sickbay ceiling. "Take it easy," Najam warned as he walked out of his office. Lidic was famous throughout the ship for how many times he had wound up in sickbay for a variety of reasons. "Yes, sir." Lidic laughed. Kim Harper walked in from one of the laboratory wards. She hurried over to Will. Their last date had been interupted by the shocking news of an investigation into Bach. "You ready for some lunch?" she asked. "I sure am," Will grinned, hooking his arm around hers. As they walked into the corridor, Harper overheard Marin's whispered comment to Amila Orissa: "that lucky bastard." Harper grinned. The Forward Lounge was full. The repair crews who had just come off duty were relaxing with bottles of synthehol. Music played softly in the background. "Look," Harper said, as she guided Lidic into an empty booth. Bach sat alone at the bar. "If I were him," Lidic remarked, "I wouldn't be seen in public. I'd stay in my cabin." "They've still got to hold a hearing," Harper said in response. "I guess that'll be what's his name's job." "It's Mic something," Lidic said. Four months out from dock and he still didn't know the legal officer's name. "Never met him. Heard he keeps to himself." "You know those JAG guys," Lidic laughed. He didn't like Starfleet's Criminal Investigation Division, Internal Affairs, and JAG people much. He understood that the CID and IA were neccessary roles in a military as large as Starfleet. There were numerous bad seeds scattered around, and they could be as much danger to a Starfleet officer as a Jem'Hadar warrior. But Lidic was of the opinion that they enforced stuff that didn't really hurt people, and in doing so, they did hurt Starfleet. CID and IA guyts were viewed as evil. Not as much JAG, but it was the officers of JAG who defended the bad guys and prosecuted the good guys, so they were kind of a mixed bag. "Never had deal..." Harper's voice trailed off. Lidic looked in the direction that she was. Proske had entered the lounge, with John Wells behind him. Both were looking at Back, and both had phaser pistols at their waists. Through the other entrance, Lieutenant Nadell and Ensign Love entered. Also both armed. "Shit," Lidic said. "What's going on?" Harper asked, watching as Nadell approached Bach. Nadell's voice was strong and clear. He wasn't the type to be discreet. "Lieutenant Johann Bach," Nadell said. All eyes in the lounge turned. "Under the authority placed in me by Starfleet, you are under arrest." Back blinked. So did everyone else. Without the hearing (which wasn't scheduled for two more days), Bach couldn't legally be arrested. To the disbelief of everyone, Nadell stated the charges. "The charge is treason, conspiracy to commit treason, illegally hacking a Starfleet database, and providing assistance to a criminal organization." "WHAT?" Bach yelled, standing. The security ensigns had their phasers in hand instantly, all aimed at Bach. "Don't move!" Proske ordered. "Keep your hands where we can see them," Nadell ordered. "This is ridiculous," Bach retorted, pushing Nadell away as the lieutenant (j.g.) tried to handcuff the former second officer. Proske charged forward, slamming Bach against the bar. Love pressed his phaser pistol into Bach's head. "DON'T MOVE!" Proske snarled. He twisted Bach's left arm behind the officer's back. "Don't make it harder on yourself, *sir*!" "Okay," Bach said, his voice wincing with the pain shooting through his arm. He turned his head, and the expressions on the faces of the junior officers and enlisted men were ones of betrayal and shock. Nadell reached up and removed Bach's rank pins and communicator badge. Proske led Bach into the corridor and pressed him up against the bulkhead, allowing Wells time to frisk the former second officer. "Did you have to do that in there?" Bach asked Nadell. Nadell's face looked angry. The young officer tried to keep his emotions in check. He had looked up to Bach. The warrior had been a good, trained officer, and now look at him. He was a traitor? Well, his commission had been suspended, so at least he didn't have to be called sir anymore. "As you know," Nadell said consendingly, "with charges of treason, the suspect is to be detained as soon as possible. Would you rather I arrested you in your quarters? Maybe you should've stayed there." "Dammit, Nate..." Nadell lost his control. He jumped in Bach's face so quickly Proske contemplated the possibility he would have to pry his commanding officer off the prisoner. "Don't you dare ask for favors! That agent killed a lot of my men, and you helped him do so! Don't feel sorry for yourself! You're still alive. You'll recieve a fair trial, which is more than Ensign Burhan Bayraktaroglu got! Remember him?" Nadell pushed himself back. "Take him to the brig," Nadell ordered Proske. "I want a guard on him at all times." "Yes, sir," Proske said, and with Wells and Love at his side, the prisoner was led away. Nadell punched the bulkhead when they were gone. He couldn't afford to lose control. Security men who lost control were quickly marked for the "no advancement" file. Shit. ========== I've tried to keep a running continuity with the "little people" ... Karl Proske, John Wells, Jim Love, Will Lidic are all security ensigns who have appeared repeatedly in the "GAMMA QUAD" episodes. Kim Harper is a recurring nurse, and Lt. Nadell is the Assistant Chief of Security. [/QB][/QUOTE]
