Stardate 52042.9

     In Sickbay, Etely screamed, currently in an intense state of pain.  
Unknown to her was what was causing it.  The EMH flickered quickly as his 
system came back online, and ran over to her bed.  It didn't take long to  
realize that her recently added arm has been blasted off by a power surge.  He
stopped the bleeding and gave her something for the pain.
     After checking his records, he knew that he could not use another 
prosthetic.  With her immune response already out the roof, blood biorejection
levels ruled out biomechanics.  Her chaotic nervous system activity also ruled
out fully technical implants.  He then decided to just leave her with only one
arm and to confine her to an extensive occupational therapy regimen on the 
holodeck until she was fit for duty.

     Meanwhile, on the bridge, Beeg turned and shrugged, saying, "Weis was
only a human," his eyes turning blue.
     Ming sat wondering if she was seeing things, being this was one of only a
few Pinx serving in Starfleet.  Mason heard the comment and wondered if Beeg 
was getting impatient for the thrill of the fight.

     Later on, Mason called Beeg into his ready room and asked if he felt the 
security crew was prepared for defense of the ship in the event it was boarded.
Beeg looked at Mason, his eyes turning from icy blue to purple down to green.
Mason wondered why they did that.
     Beeg stated, "Sir, I believe they could use more training and I believe 
that the Klingon calisthenics program I have can help that."
     Beeg left Mason's ready room and called the computer to secure the 
holodeck for training exercises and to contact all security personnel to meet 
him there.  Beeg made his way quickly to the holodeck and tapped some buttons 
on the panel outside the door as the security staff were gathering.  When they
all arrived, Beeg informed them that they would first start with a light 
calisthenics regimen, and then move on to an intensive training program to 
prepare for defense of the ship.  He noticed most the staff members muttering 
to one another. 
     Beeg sneered and then barked out, "You can either complete this training 
and be able to defend this bucket, or you can all be exempt from it if you find
someone willing to challenge me in armed bat'leth or human sword combat in the 
holodeck for two hours.  You decide."
     The crewmen looked around at each other, not making eye contact with the 
Security Chief.  Then one, a burly looking alien with three arms and one eye 
said, "I challenge you."
     Beeg tapped the panel a few more times, then he and the rest of the 
security staff entered the holodeck, which had now taken the form of an ancient
arena setting from Earth, probably Roman.  Beeg took the mortality failsafes 
off-line and then asked the alien crewman to pick weapons.  "Swords, Fifteenth
Century human.  You can pick which one from there," the crewman said, 
defiantly.
     Beeg immediately stated that he wanted a claymore for himself and quickly
had a perfectly balanced holographic weapon in his hand.  The crewman chose a 
short sword for himself.  The lights dimmed and they parried off.  All the
watching officers heard was Beeg growling as his eyes started to glow red in 
between intermittent flashes of color.  Suddenly, they heard an injured whelp 
and saw the three-armed security officer hit the ground with a thud.
     At that moment, Etely walked into the holodeck, a bit stunned to see the 
fight going on in front of her.
     "Ensign Bruder," Beeg said, noticing her immediately, "I am going to 
report you to Captain Mason.  You are not supposed to be here."
     "The EMH told me I'm allergic to all available prosthetics right now, so 
I'm here for therapy." 
     Beeg retorted, "I am in the middle of training my security staff.  Use the
other deck down the way, I had this one reserved."
     Etely quietly turned and moped down to the other holodeck.
     "Emergency!  Emergency!  An unidentified person is in my barber shop!", 
came a shrieking Ferengi voice over the intercom.  Beeg ordered several of the
other security officers to follow him and left quickly toward Reman's shop.
     Once there, a frantic Reman was screaming at him, saying that someone had
killed Telsa while she was there getting her hair cut.  Beeg instructed the 
others to run a scan for anything that might help locate the killer.
     "Did anyone see this, Reman, besides you?", Beeg asked.
     Reman stammered, "Y..Yes.. but they ran."
     Beeg quickly replied, "Why did they leave you?"  Not seeing a response 
from Reman, he said, "You will stay in custody until we get this straight."
     A security team hauled Reman away while Beeg tapped his commbadge, "Enoz,
can you come down to Reman's shop and help with an investigation?  Telsa has
been killed."  The Pinx heard Enoz gasp.  Telsa had worked in the Exobiology
Department, "Maybe you can help us figure out why someone would kill her and 
where are they now."
     Enoz answered, "Yes, I'll come down.  Give me a minute, we're still 
cleaning things up here on the bridge."
     Beeg switched channels and ordered his department to scan the vessel for 
anyone suspicious, and for teams to physically investigate areas not penetrated
by sensors.
