Lt Commander Torilla Yamaguchi tapped her combadge as she frowned at the readout before her. "Engineering, this is Conn. Could you confirm my power usage please for the warp engines?" she inquired.

"Stand by sir. Checking it now." came the response from Fives. "Yep... the drive uses too much power, about five percent too much... also how does she handle sir?"

In Engineering, Fives was standing at the master system display as he regarded the rather lovely looking set of blueprints superimposed over a bulkhead except this was no mere work of art, rather it was a fully functional computer display as he noticed that it wasn't just warp engines that were receiving too much juice from the warp core.

"Helm control is starting to become more and more sluggish as she goes." came the expected answer

"Right... Give us a few minutes... Fives out.", with that the com went silent as Torilla sighed softly. "Even my children don't vex me so." she muttered softly as she continued to watch the system carefully. "holding steady at Warp 2 for now." she added as she in turn began a quick diagnostic series of the conn console to make sure the fault wasn't at the station where she was at, she knew she was rusty but this was a little much, even for her.

"Fives to Bridge, the replicator system is on the fritz, we're working on it..."

"Lovely... keep us informed please" Commander Yamaguchi replied dryly as she sighed,. so much for her evening meal which she had planned to enjoy, it now looked like she was stuck with rations as she shook her head, as she returned her attention to what she was doing with the checks.

A few minutes later the call she was waiting on came through. "Bridge, Engineering... the replicators are now working again."

Torilla smiled "Understood Chief, Nice work."
