*she looks down, and nods* Yes... That was uncalled for.. For you wanting to get rid of an innocent makes no sense to me.. None at all..

I vote to shut down SWYMIR..

It is, most undoubtably, Hammertime.

Final tally of votes:
SWYMIR UNIT: 3 VOTES
Lt. Shmeashter: 1 VOTE

Over the SWYMIR unit's objections that doing so will lower the mission success probability to less than 70%, the crew determines to remove him from the chain of command. Although Dr. Schme shows up weilding a large and archaic hammer and takes a solid swing at the SWYMIR monitor, the rest of the crew exchange glances and then Lieutenant Nick pulls the wiring cable out of the SWYMIR unit's control panel. He stores the cable in a secured lock box and transfers it to the cargo hold, where it will be inaccessible until the end of the mission. Perhaps, when they return to Earth, a more skilled AI programmer can determine exactly how this important computer went bad.

STASIS BEGINNING. PLEASE RETURN TO STASIS CHAMBERS.

With Lieutenant Shmeashter and Dr. Smart remaining utterly silent during the Wake Cycles, the crew again prepares for another stasis cycle, anxious about their vulnerability during this time.

Vampires, coordinate and send me your victim.
Hacker, send me your investigation.
Lock Override, send me your protectee.

He slept fitfully, small twinges of guilt or responsibility tugging at his consciousness. How was it that he was spared? How had he survived? In his stasis-sleep, he dreamed of hideous monsters, stalking him, clawing at him, ravenous and destructive, before they ripped his stasis chamber from its fittings in the floor and ejected him from the airlock, chamber and all.

He woke to pitch black, and for a moment of disorientation, he thought he really had been ejected in his stasis chamber. But no-- a tiny yellow light in the chamber indicated that they were still in stasis, so he must have simply had one of those rare, uncomfortable mid-stasis waking moments.

But then.... he saw it. It wasn't that it moved out of the blackness, so much as it was the blackness, bearing down on him with infinite, terrible patience.

The yellow light in the chamber cycled to green and his eyes flew open in terror as the blackness engulfed him, the clawing hands gripping him, the fangs--

ATTENTION. STARDATE 7.7.2505. WAKE CYCLE BEGIN. ALL CREW REPORT TO STATIONS. STASIS CYCLE WILL RE-COMMENCE IN FIVE DAYS, AT 13.7.2505.

Mr. Floyd is the first to call for help after stasis ends, screaming and sobbing into the ship's Comm system-- "He's dead! He's dead! Oh, God-- Nixit's dead!"

Listening to the screams she shouts

OMG!! How could this be. He was once spared now he's gone. This is getting ridiculous....

sighs

Master Mikki, I hope you are able to help this time, because now I am at a lost for who the killer could be...

*looks around* Are we all afraid to say anything? *looks to Mikki and Sparkle* What's going on?

*she looks around* Well I figured that I was always one of the first to talk, I would let a few others talk first.. I can tell you that Nick is innocent, but I seem to be going in the wrong direction here.. I found the Captain, but I can't seem to find his help.. *sighs*

Becoming scared again

I feel like we are right back where we started...

sighs

Well, we will need to vote soon...

Well, I don't know who to vote for. For the moment I'll abstain.

Well if you can tell who is innocent, Mikki... who do we know for sure is innocent? And who is not innocent?

If I am correct, I think Mikki has said that Lt. Shmeaster, Dr. Schme, and you, Lt. Nick, are innocent.

That leaves Dr. Sparkle, Dr. Smart, Mr. Floyd, and myself as possibilities, assuming that Mikki is indeed the Hacker and is telling us the truth. *shrugs*

Yes, that is what I have said.. I... *she sighs* I don't know who to look into anymore.. *she shakes her head*

Well. *smiles* I invite you to look at me next, if for no other reason than to clear my name...
