Who:- Jay, Amber
Where:- Jay's office
It was a few days after the promenade attack, so Jay was in his office,
talking Amber through some of the tasks she'd now be expected to do in her
new role.
He had just started explaining to her about the cartography lab's when his
desk-com beeped.
"'Scuse me Amber" he said, apologetically and he reached over and tapped the
'respond' button.
"Chrysler here, go ahead."
"Hey boss" came the voice of Ramirez, one of Jay's pilots. "That 'Bug you
reported stolen?"
"What about it?"
"It's back.."
"What?"
"Seriously, I just walked into bay 5 and it's there! Engines are still
pretty warm too, defintiley only been here a few hours."
Jay looked up at his computer monitor. "Holly, why didn't you detect this?"
"Wot?" replied the computer.
"The Starbug I reported missing, it's come back"
"Oh...has it?"
"Yes...why did you not tell me?"
"I didn't know"
"Why NOT?!"
"dunno...I can't find it now"
"Bay 5!"
"I know, but I can't trace it.....'ang on..."
The image of Hollys bald head on Jay's screen flicked off and was replaced
by a live feed from one of shuttlebay 5's security cameras, it rotated and
zoomed on the image of the elusive shuttle.
"There it is holly!" Jay said, excitedly.
"Oh yeah..so it is...but weird thing is I can't access it's flight recorder
or anything, i've been locked out. Probably why I couldn't detect it."
"Wait a minute...The only person with authority to lock out the computers is
me...needs my fingerprint scan, not even the captain can do it without my
agreement"
"Guess you locked it out then..."
"How could I have!..wait, I'll tap in and unlock it."
Jay's fingers flew across his keyboard entering a few commands.
"Ah, got it" said Holly.
"Who was the last person to fly it Hol?"
"According to the flight recorder, the pilot on it's return journey used the
retinal scan to unlock the shuttles controls, rather than the key-code.."
"That's unusual I'll admit" Jay said "But not overly suspicious"
"No..but the retinal scan record show's that it was you!"
"What? But I've been aboard the Dwarf for over a week now!"
"I know..I'll get security to look into it...oh, actually, no need they're
on their way here."
"Why?"
"To arrest you..."
"WHAT? WHAT FOR?"
"Apparently your DNA has been found at the scene of a bank robbery on the
Planet Magnus IV"
"I've never been to Magnus IV! I hear their beer's awful!"
It was at this point that Harris burst in, flanked by two security officers.
"Commander Chrysler..." Chris said "We are under orders to take you into
custody and await questioning by the Space Corp. C.I.D."
"Chris, c'mon man, you know it couldn't have been me!"
"I know mate, but orders is orders, don't make this harder than it already
is eh?"
Jay sighed, and held out his hands for the cuffs to be put on.
"Amber...guess the flight deck's yours for the moment!...."
