Xander paced around the bridge, monitoring the ships repairs and status's.  The majority of the repairs were done and the ships systems were coming back online at or better than they had been before the accident.  He thought about the situation and was glad that Starfleet had expected the engine design to put them in a situation where they needed long term supplies and parts.  Starfleet had not, however; considered that the engine would throw them out of their know galaxy.  It was still a good thing they had the extra supplies.<br/><br/>Ship repairs were coming along nicely, and Captain Blacklake had been busily dealing with problems around the ship which for some reason required her particular attention.  Xander appreciated that the Captain was a woman who liked to take charge of issues personally, but he knew that she was untested in a serious command situation and was concerned that she might be taking too much on her shoulders without consulting him.<br/><br/><em> "All personnel who have volunteered or been assigned to the away mission, report to the transporter room. And med bay, have the counter-agent delivered immediately, we leave within the hour."</em>This was exactly the type of situation Xander thought to himself that he didn't want the Captain in without working with him.  Starfleet regulations restricted the Captain from going on Away missions in environments that were not secure or known.  If she was going to continue like this, she and Xander would need to come to an agreement.  "Captain, this is Commander Grayn."  He said as he tapped his comm badge.  "Can I see you in your ready room as soon as possible?"
