CO Capt. John McKnight

[McKnight, in Main Engineering]

John raised an eyebrow as the Lieutenant called him crazy before regaining composure. The Captain could tell that Stevens felt stressed. He would speak to him later about the proper protocols when addressing a superior officer.

"Captain, Lieutenant Rhyne will be fine. I closed the cut she had and stopped the bleeding. Her blood loss wasn't too terrible but I do recommend that she rest for a bit longer before moving again," said someone behind him.

The Captain turned around and nodded. He was glad to finally have one bit of good news.

"Captain, sorry to interrupt, but while Lt. Stevens is technically correct, we actually don't have the luxury of being technically correct," Van said. He continued, "You may not know me sir, but I'm Ensign Trieu. I served during the Dominion War and I've seen my share of ships that lost power right in the heat of battle. The trick isn't to make sure you have the most complex calculations to get to high warp. We don't need to get to Warp 9. We just need main power from the warp core and we can do that with a simple positive matter / anti-matter ratio. I can do the calculations myself from the main engineering station."

"Thank you, Ensign," said the Captain as he walked over to Trieu, "We may have to do it the old fashion way with pen and paper but I can double check the ratios for you."
