"Reports and Orders"
Lt. T'Leara and Lt. Viviana Lazzara-Henderson
There was a heaviness in the air around Vivie as she sat at her desk working on
her reports for her Lieutenant. Everything she'd learned was pointing at one of
her friends and it was hurting her in ways she'd never felt before. She felt
like screaming, crying, beating away the bad things that loomed over them, but
when it came down to it all she could do was her job.
The sound of the main doors hissing open caused Vivie to look up. T'Leara was
back. It was time to do what she'd been dreading. Standing slowly, Vivie made
her way towards the Vulcan woman. "Welcome back, Lieutenant."
T'Leara nodded slightly, reminding herself that such pleasantries were human
custom. "Thank you."
Vivie tried hard to keep the mix of professionalism and her personality she'd
spent so much time working on in place, but it wasn't easy. "I have information
about the murder cases. Would you like to talk about it now or settle in
first?"
T'Leara gave her full attention to the young security officer. "Begin. I am
listening."
Looking around the room at the others, Vivie motioned towards T'Leara's office.
At the other woman's nod, she followed her in and waited until the door was
shut behind her. "There's a total of four bodies and one barely alive vic. Two
of the dead were killed with a snap of the neck. Two by knife wounds. The two
snapped necks have the same traces of a paralyzing drug as the vic in sick
bay."
T'Leara nodded. "Go on."
Vivie took a deep breath before going on. "Five of Twelve and the Sergeant
Major working the forensic team have IDed the blades used on the second pair as
Klingon. They've also matched a set of finger prints."
"Who do they match?" T'Leara prompted, wishing she'd get to the bottom line.
"Ensign Joshua Garrity." Vivie answered softly.
T'Leara's brows went up quickly. Surely she'd heard wrong. "I apologize,
lieutenant, but it appears I've misheard you. Kindly repeat."
Vivie could see, despite the fact her CO was a Vulcan, that T'Leara didn't like
the idea of it being Josh any more then she did. "I wish I had miss spoken,
Lieutenant, but I didn't. All the evidence points to Josh and all the
interviews I've done have provided reasons."
T'Leara sat down, looking at Vivie intently."Okay...convince me."
The last thing Vivie wanted to do was convince anyone of Josh's guilt. Damn
job, damn duty, damn fates. "The second vic was the delegate named IIom. He was
the same man who fought with Doctor Coyne in the lounge. Ensign Garrity and
Doctor Coyne are close. The vic in sick bay is the Maritu who had words with
Ensign Garrity in the hall outside her cabin. She referred to him in a
derogatory manner in that exchange. The Maritu found stabbed was her aide. The
only Kalari that's been killed was in the same room as the last two Maritu. We
can' connect him to the first murder other then by the fact his neck was
snapped."
T'Leara listened carefully. When it was over, she asked, "And you believe that
a painfully underweight, as yet in less than optimum condition and generally,
according to his file, docile and passive human could have had the strength to
snap the neck of a Maritu?"
Vivie's mind filled with memories of Josh's holodeck program and she tried not
to shudder. "I don't want to believe that Josh could have done this. The
evidence however is hard to dispute. As for weather he's capable of doing it;
there are several people who came over from his last posting who have seen what
he is physically capable of doing. Whether or not we think he's personally
capable is another thing all together."
"And do you?" T'Leara asked.
"In defense of someone he cares about." Vivie said softly as she tucked hair
behind her ear. "Not in a cold calculated way. Which makes this even harder
because it does look as if he were acting on behalf of the Coyne woman and
possibly his younger brother. The Maritu male assaulted Doctor Coyne. If the
Maritu female had pressed him about were he and his brother had come from then
he could have seen her as a threat to the boy."
T'Leara sat back, stifling a sigh. This was not the news she wanted to hear,
that the nephew of their commanding officer could in fact be the one behind the
failure of the mission and the murder of the arbitrator and several delegates
as well. "Has he been questioned yet?"
Vivie shook her head. "I wanted to report to you before I brought him in."
T'Leara nodded as she rose. "Consider it reported. I am going to review all of
the evidence myself. In the meantime, bring him in."
"Yes Ma'am." Vivie replied. She'd have to ask Eddie for the use of a couple of
his MPs. She wasn't sure she could do it on her own if the answer to her next
question was yes. "Do we officially arrest him?"
T'Leara considered that a moment, then slowly nodded. "We have sufficient
physical evidence to do so. It would appear to be the next logical step."
Vivie felt as if she were going to be ill. All the color drained from her face
and she felt as if she were going to throw up. "Yes Ma'am." She waited to be
dismissed and then walked out into the main area were her desk was. She walked
over and pulled her phaser and it's holster from her desk and then slapped her
comm badge. "Eddie, send one of your MP teams to meet me outside security ASAP.
Lazzara out."
Of all the things that I have lost
I think I miss my mind the most...
