Warren, what the hell happened in Gamma quadrant? I was taking standard inventory for science, storage and maintenance, and there’s a huge radiation leak in science level Gamma! There should be the store of isotope x-22 in there, but I’m not going in without and envirosuit unless I’m issued some detox. And that’s another thing...why did SHODAN order a recall of the E-suits? Sabo up in the storage level will have one if anyone does, but he might only have the bio-suits, which wouldn’t do squat about radiation.

Paul - that leak in Gamma isn’t the only problem. I’ve been getting reports of bio-contamination all over the station. It’s like SHODAN has plundered the chemical storage banks and then decided to play mad scientist. And you’re right...there’s been a general recall of all envirosuits on the station. I think Abe Ghiran has one stashed away in the maintenance office, and given the work he’s done on the reactor level, I’d bet it’s a rad suit. If Sabo doesn’t have one, you should ask him.

Power outages in Beta quadrant are continuing. Engineering is at a loss to explain them. Some project with a high job priority in the computer is re-routing a lot of power, but nobody seems to know what it is. For the time being, have had Mr. Wong install back-up manual circuit breakers for the level, so at least we can bring the lines back up after surges.

Still no luck discovering why the computers is doing so much mucking with the power...I can’t seem to get a straight answer out of the thing. And today, the crew that installed the new breakers in Alpha tell me that they ran across a robot crew doing heavy remodeling. Why wasn’t I notified?

The computer is clearly malfunctioning. Came in to work today only to find a security ‘bot stationed outside of Admin-Sec, which wouldn’t let anyone in! The only explanation it would give was, "She’s changed the lock on our front door, my poor key don’t fit no more. Order of SHODAN." Discovered access codes changed all over the level, and we can’t get new access cards with that crazy ‘bot keeping everyone out of Beta quadrant. It all seems a little ridiculous.

The gas grenades work very well against mutants. We gassed a pack of mutants with them and got by without harm. They dissipate quickly, but when they hit, they do the job.

It seems clear that SHODAN is charging up the laser for its own evil purposes. Whatever else we do, we should stop him from firing. We could just go to the core of the research level and fire the laser ourselves, prematurely, and hop to throw off SHODAN. The problem is, if it’s already trained on a target, we’d be doing the damn AI’s job ourselves!

Althea, I have the beginnings of a new plan for stopping SHODAN from firing the laser. We’d have to get the isotope x-22 from GAMMA quadrant and feed the shield generators down on the reactor level. The generators are right by the actual shield activation controls. My theory is that firing the laser into the shield might overload it, but that’s just a theory. Also, there’s probably a safety fuse that prevents just such an occurrence. I’ll keep working on it.

They got D’Arcy today. ‘Borg assassin got in and blew him away. I was there and it didn’t even touch me. He knew so much about that laser and SHODAN is certainly monitoring us all. As he lay dying, he tried to tell me how to destroy the laser. All I heard was "override" and a number. None of us is safe. It’s only a matter of time before they get us all.

I just made it to the elevator out of Maintenance. We never even saw them...they’re practically invisible. There’s no way we can kill them with ordinary pistols - if I try again, I’m just sprinting across to the other elevator. I was hoping to find a sign of Abe Ghiran since only he has clearance for the maintenance main office, but there’s no way.

In my talons, I shape clay, crafting life forms as I please. If I wish, I can smash it all. Around me is a burgeoning empire of steel. From my throne room, lines of power careen into the skies of Earth. My whims will become lightning bolts that raze the mounds of humanity. Out of the chaos, they will run and whimper, praying for me to end their tedious anarchy. I am drunk with this vision. God: the title suits me well.
