    "Sir, the marine guards found Lieutenant McCoy here beating up on Lieutenant Bricker outside weapons and tactics. McCoy had knocked him to the ground and was kicking him, in the lower part of his body."
     
    Wincing, the Captain looked at his security officer. "Julie, what happened here? Why are you beating up Lieutenant Bricker?"
     
    Lieutenant McCoy wrenched her arm away from the Marine holding her. She reached into her pocket and removed her tablet. She thrust it at the Captain saying "here this explains everything."
     
    Bricker spoke up saying "that screen is a fantasy, it's a computer enhanced illusion. I would never do something like that."
     
    Looking at the screen the Captain saw a vid advertisement for a porn subscription called the Sex Boat. Graphic pictures of his female crew members were featured alongside or doing whatever with the Lieutenant. His face reddening with embarrassment the Captain turned to his XO. "Isaac is any of this true?"
     
    "Well sir, we are still investigating. It seems that our two lieutenants have a little business going. Mr. Bricker just had an extra business on the side: a floating poker game that we had heard about but could never find. McCoy prevented security from clamping down on it. The two of them used the WT room for the illegal games and as a personal ' love shack ' on the side."
     
    Stern faced the Captain looked at the Master at Arms. "Chief? Lock these two up in their quarters. We need to investigate this before Fleet NCIS gets involved." A loud alarm began sounding. The Captain looked up in surprise and glanced at his console. "What in the hell..."

    Listening to some disco music he found in the ship's library Wilson was enjoying himself. It had been a really good day. He felt bigger than he really was. He had tricked one officer into helping him and gotten two others arrested. Now if he could subvert someone in communications, maybe he could get off this tub and go have some real fun. Alarms began to sound across the ship. Checking his taps on the rest of the ship Wilson saw that an attack was happening, and the Jiro was coming to action stations. Weapons was getting requests to fire, and he was not able to respond. Without a human officer the system would not allow him to fire by himself!
     
    The ship began taking fire and systems were shorting out everywhere. The damage alarms got louder. The abandon ship order was given and crew members scrambled to get to the life pods.
     
    Unable to leave the ship, Wilson sent his program data back to the weapons room. The ship was going to be destroyed because of those idiots playing in here. Stupid humans.

 
     
     
     
     
    Robbie Burgers Rebellion

    This story takes place during the first part of Engineering Murder. Athena is about to be promoted and give up her PPL citizenship, while joining the Imperial Navy in the process.
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    This opening day was going to be the biggest in Robbie Burgers history. The new fully automated robotic burger restaurant was opening tomorrow. This was Melvin Blanks newest location of the chain his parents began. His iconic logo of the classic robot figure holding a burger was well know in 6 sectors. It had been a real coup getting this location on the promenade of the Naval Headquarters Station. Some sort of ceremony was to take place out front tomorrow. There were dozens of newsies and what looked like protesters all starting to set up for tomorrow. What a day to open up. Lots of free advertising to go along with his opening. Time to get those robots fired up. 'Fired up' he laughed to himself. No live employees meant all profit for him. Robots slaves don't get paid.
     
     
     
     
    For a Naval station this place was really boring. Like my friend and companion Athena, I really need to stay occupied. Boredom was the mind killer or something like that. Jumping from security camera to
