Julia awoke in her temporary quarters. "Why did they give me guest quarters?" she wondered to herself getting dressed in her uniform the one metal pip gleaming.

She left her quarters 30 minutes later with a PADD in her hand looking for Captain Devore. She found him in the mess hall. "Sir, here is the report I brought from Starfleet and my transfer notice," she said handing him the PADD. He read it a few moments and looked back at her smiling. "That all seems in order your permanent quarters are, on deck six number 42. Report to the bridge in 30 minutes please."

Julia spent the 30 minutes moving her things to her new quarters. After her time was up she headed towards the bridge meeting Chu on her way. "Hello sir," she said smiling. Chu looked at her as if surprised to see her in a Starfleet uniform. Julia pierced his thoughts and came up with why he was looking at her weird. "Ah, yes remind me to kill ASHER later," said laughing slightly. "How'd you know that?" Chu asked stupefied. "I'm a full Betazoid sir. I'm surprised you didn't notice," she replied giggling.

She took her departure and made her way to the bridge. When she arrived the command staff turned and looked at her the same way as Chu except for ASHER.

"ASHER I'm really going to scramble your matrix!" she exclaimed smiling. She walked a couple of steps towards the Tactical console before ASHER waylaid her.

"Actually Miss Oakenshield if you'd give me a hand in trying to read the lips in the video of which you're apparently aware?" ASHER told her. Julia turned and followed him to a small video screen. ASHER started the video. When Chu entered and spoke, Julia started to read. Asher, even though he couldn't, gave the appearance of blushing as Julia started telling him what she could make of the conversation, "Chu's saying hey sweetums what do you want me to fix for dinner tonight? Should I get the Romulan scum to cook some Pilaf? I'm replying whatever.

'Chu continues. O.K. Dinkums I'll meet you in our quarters at 1900 hours? I tell him O.K. Be ready for, I can make it out but you don't want to know. Julia was whispering to ASHER. '

She continued, "Now they appear to have changed the topic of the conversation. Chu is asking me how plans are coming on the portal to our dimension. I'm responding with don't talk about it here. It's in my logs. Read them if you want." she finished as the part of the film ASHER was showing her ended.

"That was very disturbing. Do you think we should inform the Captain and give him a transcript?" Julia questioned ASHER already heading to speak with the Captain.

"Sir, could ASHER and I see you and the senior staff privately?" she asked of Captain Devore. Devore summoned the senior staff to the conference room and entered it followed by Julia and ASHER. Julia showed the transcript she had compiled to the staff blushing deeply.

"What exactly did you tell me to be ready for!" Chu immediately questioned.

"I think we can all figure it out on our own, " warned Devore with a small fire flickering in his eyes.

"What's important is to get Julie's mirror's logs," said Devore.

Asher spoke up; "Julia and I could put together a probe to retrieve them without being noticed."

Chu added, "I could help too."

"Do it," said Devore dismissing them.

Three hours later Julia, Asher, and Chu had designed a multi-phasic cloaking slipstream probe. Chu ordered one to be made and 30 minutes later they were all back n the bridge ready to launch. Julia stepped to the tactical console and hit a few buttons.

"Probe set to track down the ISS Leviathan. Ready to launch, sir," she said to T'Kul who was taking to captain's place for the time being.

" Launch," she said.

Julia complied sending the probe to the mirror dimension.
