Logical Conclusion

Captain Lee Crane wasn't liking the next mission to the Arctic circle once again. Even though it's been awhile since the Seaview have visited the military base. Though this time the base has been suffering with slight tremors for the past week.

General Thomas staying at the base for the past week. He had sent a dispatch to the Nelson Institute and Admiral Nelson that his submarine was needed to help find the cause of the problem.

Just when he was leaving his office. All of a sudden there was a larger tremor throughout the entire base. Furniture, picture frames and a number of other items including oil drums to cause a slight explosion on the other side of the base.

Fire fighters were able to put out the blaze in environment suits due to the fact the temperatures have dropped ten degrees in the past four hours.

General Thomas was thinking about a possible fissure that just might be causing the pressure built up for the fault line. At least he thinks this way, or it could be another dangerous cause...

Chief Sharkey having been ordered to make sure that everyone is abroad the Seaview. He had given the chore to Patterson and Kowalski to have all of the cold weather geared checked.

Patterson had mention something to Sharkey with saying. "At least Chief for when we were on the oil rig. At least we didn't have a BALL & CHAIN with giving orders." Patterson walked away with Kowalski as Sharkey was pissed off at Patterson.

Meanwhile outside of the Control Room and moving out of the aft bulkhead. Kowalski stops Patterson from moving any further. "Now your done it Pat. Sharkey is going to keep us busy until the Seaview reaches the base in the Arctic circle."

"Maybe later Ski, I will be able to make an apology and see how Sharkey reacts to it. But for now lets get moving on those cold weather gear. Afterwards I need to see and speak with Doctor Winters to see how she is doing since leaving the cottage."

Captain Lee Crane, Admiral Nelson and Commander Morton were all together from inside his cabin. Lee was at the end of the desk in his usual stop perched on the desk.

"What's going on sir?" Lee asked in his quiet demeanor.

"Quite honestly General Thomas thinks there has to be a good reason as to why the base in the Arctic circle are having tremors."
Nelson responded with handing them a report on the possible cause and effect.

"Wow!" Morton responded. "I would of never thought that another submarine might be the logical conclusion as to why or how the base is being hit with tremors.'

"Very true Chip. However for now I need to have this submarine on general alert until we reach the area of the base. It's going to take us a little over four days to reach our destination even at flank speed. I want someone inside the reactor at all times, and that means Patterson or Kowalski, along with three others for the watches. I don't want anyone falling down on their faces during this crisis." Nelson responded with a groan and telling the two to get moving.

"Yes, Sir." Lee announced from his sit at the edge of the desk. "Admiral, I believe Doc Jamieson had mention to me earlier. He needed to check with everyone since the last physicals weren't done. He wants to make sure everyone is in good shape before we reach the Arctic circle."

"Of course Lee. Inform Doctor Jamieson and his staff to start with the physicals of the crew before doing the command staff." Nelson announced with his order to his friend and captain.
