After he had left the bridge, Mimas went to his personal quarters... He walked to the replicator
"a blue salad with Espra cheese, some allira juice and a Hilrep"
The medical escort was pleased to hear him order a meal, and left with the words: "Now you take care of yourself, ensing... The doctor will come to you as soon as possible..."
"l will,..." Mimas replied, and started to eat, sitting at a small table that was place t the window
Soon he was alone... and he felt the energy flowing back into his vains with every bite he took from his meal...
His quarters had 2 rooms. The first room was what he called his living room, the room in which he lived... The walls were decorated with pictures and paintings, and the one chair where he had his meal, was placed facing the window, and with the back to the door...you could say that this room was filled with emotions, The other room was much more sober, and contained a small matras on one side, and a big cushon in the middle. There was hardly any decoration in here, but this room breaths spirituallity and religion... The only eye-catching furniture was a dark wooden crate-like cupboard, with ancient looking artefacts: a vulcan meditation lamp, a crystal pyramid, some candle holders....
After his meal, Mimas sat on the cushon, and forgot all time and place...

Holodeck, Vernemeton Station
Brackman took a turbolift and went down several corridors before entering one of the station's holodecks. As soon as the doors to the holodeck closed, Brackman called out, "Computer, activate CHIMERA."
A man in his late thirties appeared in front of Brackman. He wore a lab coat similar to Brackmans, with a gray shirt and black pants underneath.
"Verify your identity," the man commanded.
"Dr. Gustaf Brackman," replied Brackman.
"Identity verified. As you obviously know, I am the Classified Holographic Multipurpose Research Assistant, Mark III. I would prefer to simply be called Charlie. How do you need my assistance?"
Brackman raised his eyebrows and said, "Quite interesting. Embeding CHIMERA's programming in Starfleet's standard programs obviously worked very well. Anyway, Charlie, do you know how to repair the SC-2?"
"The SC-2 has been undergoing extensive modifications over the years. In what way does it need to be repaired?"
"Most of the primary systems are badly damaged or destroyed, with the secondary systems about to fail. Supplies are arriving at an unknown future date."
Charlie frowned, "I don't see how I am needed yet."
"At the moment, your assistance is primarily needed in the manual aspect of repairing the SC-2. Fortunately, the SC-2's holoemitters are still functional. QAI can help you repair the modified systems and additions, once he is back online."
"Why didn't you first contact the SR department? They constructed the SC-2."
Brackman paused and didn't say anything for a while.

Larson was hungry, but by no means tired. He had never been a very good sleeper, four to six hours at the most. He often got ahead on his work or read for pleasure. He was not very social due to his impatient "stay busy at all times" way of life. This stood in the way of group meals, plays, and musical perfomances that lasted for more than thirty minutes. He just couldn't keep his mind or body still. "You've got ants in your pants!!", his great grandfather used to say. He researched that phrase, just like he researched everything, and found that it was almost as old as recorded history, but apt.
"I will eat Dr. O'mannin, while I go over the crew scans, unless you want help with the blood therapy, or maybe I can research what kind of radation is best to stop the implants from growing.."
Alan realized he was getting ahead of himself, again. He was giving himself orders instead of letting the doctor(who now outranked him) give the orders. He took a breath, and said"I'll assist you as you see fit Lt. O'Mannin"
"By the way, I have another pair of eyes on the station looking at Dr.Bracman's scans.", Alan said.
He almost explained how he was able to get so much data from the scanner, but stopped short. Now that O'Mannin was a ranking officer, Alan thought it best to keep his little scanner tricks to himself. If O'Mannin brought it up again, he would gladly fess up, and ask O'Mannin to keep it hush hush.
"Also Doctor, Mr.Mimas also seemed eager to talk with you. If you like, the EMH and I can keep a lid on sickbay whenever you are ready to talk to him. Sorry to get ahead of myself. Just let me know how I can help."

CO's Office - Station Vern
The Commander replied to Faraness's question explaining both the situation with Brackmans ship and the current quarantine.
"Hmm a borg airborne virus? Is there a report on what the virus is? Perhaps airborn nanites?" She asked.
"Commander i think you will agree that we cannot have our flagship out of commision for too long as there is so much to be done. I would like your whole crew to be blood tested for this virus if it has not already been done. Can you send any data on the virus to me and I'll get the science team on the station to work with your team to try and figure out a cure as quickly as possible."
Faraness became quite concerned for the crew of the Concordia. Her first mission and already a medical quarantine of the whole ship.
After again waiting for the reply of Commander Shepard she finished the conversation.
"You and your crew keep well Commander. I hope we can fix this problem as soon as possible. Ill contact the stations science team to start helping out now. Rangwere out."
She pressed a button after the Commander said his goodbye's and the screen returned to a rotating Starfleet insignia. While waiting for the data to come through, Faraness moved her hand towards her commbadge.
"Captain Rangewere to Ensign Danica," She said activating a commlink between her and the Ensgin. "Please report to my office as soon as possible. Rangwere out."
Faraness waited patiently and decided to start filling in the required paperwork about the debriefing of the Concordia's mission while she waited.

Concordia-Medical Lab
The Doctor merely nodded in acceptance as he the Ensign said he would examine the crew scans or research radiation types. He knew he would discuss it more with the young officer when they reached the lab but not in the hall, not where a worried crew might hear part of the story and begin making up their own conclusions. He stopped once inside the lab letting the door close behind them an then looked out through the viewing window and looked out over the room they had just passed through. There were still quite a few injured being attended to but the number had decreased and for that he was grateful. Then came the words that concerned him. Alan told him that he had shared medical information with someone not aboard the ship, information not just of a member of star fleet but that of a civilian.
Instantly his mind started to work to figure out just when this may have occurred and why he had not tried to prevent it. During the early 20th century codes had been established to protect such sensitive information. Even Starfleet had regulations regarding sharing medical records and he was sure now he would be reduced to Ensign again if not completely relieved of his duties for his dereliction of duty. He had mentioned to Alan that earlier that he did not discuss treatment options in front of patients but evidently his words were not enough to keep the breech from occurring.
Danial let a concern look cross his face and let the officer complete what he wanted to say before he turned to face him. "Alan," he said with a sigh, "who did you send Dr. Brackman's medical information to, please tell me it was the Chief Medical Officer?
He knew Mimas wanted to see him but that would have to wait, the treatment for the infected officer would have to wait. This was more important, more pressing and much more career ending than anything he had faced so far.
Her walked the short distance to the consol and began transferring the medical data and glancing quickly at the charts. He turned and faced Larson, his face still expressing the worry he felt, "next time would you please ask me first before the lynch me?"

"Oh yes he was. My main creator created my body but was having problems with my AI. He was one of the people who helped fix that little snag in my creation. I never really liked him due to the fact that he betrayed my creator and stole my AI plans to create a more sophisticated brother unit as you would say. He installed the Brother unit in his shuttle."
"Very interesting indeed," replied Danica, once again surprised at the canine's abilities. "And this is the same Dr. Brackman who was just in the Captain's office with me. Ensign Larson would not have sent me data unless he had a suspicion something was wrong; I'm a scientist, not a doctor." She resisted the urge to add "dammit," thought she didn't know why.
Danica began reading. If Brackman was an AI specialist who, according to Argus, stole data from his colleagues in order to further his career, and the crew of the Concordia had been exposed to some sort of new Borg nanoprobe, might Brackman have been as well? Or might he be looking to find a way to exploit this for his own gain?
She hadn't gotten far when her comm chirped.
"Captain Rangewere to Ensign Danica, please report to my office as soon as possible. Rangwere out."
"On my way, Captain," the ensign replied. Looking down at Argus, the young scientist stated, "You are welcome to accompany me if you would like, though I would prefer to walk this time."

"I was just following orders. I'm sure the data will be handled with the upmost care by Urban's friends in the yellow uniforms. If the information is mishandled. My guess is that Starfleet Command is going to come after them with pitchforks and torches, not you."
Alan began to talk too much again.
"I've taken a look at those pesky Starfleet Regulations a few times. I don't get to much sleep. I read alot to fill the time.

So he decided to shorten his distance to Rangwere's office and transported himself from the Science labs directly to inside Rangwere's office. He then went and sat down next to Rangwere, then when the door chimed, he went and opened it up to stare at Danica, before he broke off from the eye contact and sat down next to Rangwere again...

The medical doctor let out a deep breath. It was more out of frustration than relief but all the same Larson's words had a ring of truth in them and he would have to accept that for now.
"Ok," he said letting out another sigh and crossing his arms, "just be careful with the data you see here. People can turn rather ugly if they think your violating their privacy."
"Can you wait a moment while I take a better look at this stuff," Daniel asked turning back around to face the consol.
"Computer read all data in Dr. Brackman's data files," he began, "please use SR17 settings and scroll data on consol as read."
"Acknowledge," came the familiar female voice from the computer.
A moment later the ships computer began reading at a pace most speed-readers would have a problem keeping up with. For Daniel it had become a way of life. His eyes traveled across each graphic that appeared and ignoring any letters or numbers that appeared. His hands it a few locations on the board and new graphs and charts flooded the screen in rapid succession almost as if a robot or android were doing so but yet not quite as fast.
As the last of the records finished he gave orders to create a few new calculative charts based on the data and then turned back to Larson, "there does seem to be something wrong here unless he is a 20 year old human who runs marathons as a hobby."
"What I would like your help with," he said as the more relaxed look ventured across his face, "is a force field of sorts. I can't move our nanite infested crewmember to a private room so we will have to shield the other occupants from the radiation we will need to use." "Secondly," the Doctor said turning back to the data now loaded and ready for him to review, "I need to know what you did, I know there is more data than a typical tricorder typically produces so I will need to separate the medical from the tactical. Then, if you don't mind, could you whip me up a batch of our favorite Borg pesticide for our friend while go check on Ensign Mimas."
"Sorry to jump all over you like that," he said, "but a breach in protocol is far more paperwork than I want to fill out, not with my sickbay overflowing."

"As for the extra data" Larson took out his tricorder, walked over to the doctor, and showed him his dirty little secret.
"If you override the tolerance protocols, like this.." he said as he reset the device and keyed past the recomended setting level, ".. you can get a much more well..detailed scan."
The doctor's eyebrow was on the rise again. Alan answered the doctor's next question before he could ask it.
"I assue you Dr. Brackman was never in any danger. This tricorder, however, took quite a beating in the process, but still seems to be functioning perfectly." Larson said. "I divided all the data several different ways while I was waiting for you. Just ask the computer to display medical data only, and it will bring up those files for you to review." Alan added with a smile.
"I'll get started on the next um.. batch of uh.. blood right away. The forcefield will have to wait untill we settle on the particular type or types of radiation we will use, sir"
