A few days later Chief O'Brien still had his staff working on the pylon issues, and frustration was starting to sit in with him. As it seems once one pylon was repaired, then another would go bad. Miles kept thinking about his wife and daughter as he promises his wife that we would do a better job in controlling his temper. He kept thinking about the young ensign that was assigned to his team who he lost on the spacewalk when his communicator went off.

"O'Brien here."

"Chief I know you have been running around the last couple of days, and I was hoping this would wait. But Quark keeps calling in to complain about his halo suite keeps losing power."

"Does he now!" Miles could no longer hold his temper in check, and hearing Quark was worrying about his profit margin, while he was dealing with critical station safety issues was all he could take.

"You tell Quark that the chief said that if he wants instant service, it will cost him five gold press latinum,." From a distant, you could see the Ferengi face on the monitor change once he heard it would cost him latinum for quicker service. Miles smile, finally something going my way today he says to himself still smiling.

Back at ops, the station was alive with activity with more arriving traffic as the Bajorians continue to arrive at the station as the holiday draws near. Odo was walking the promenade deck keeping an watchful eye on things, which he left another security officer watching the monitors. Odo has always preferred being part of the action instead of sitting away from possible conflicts behind a desk.

Something he got used to during the Cardassian occupation of the station. He still prefers the Cardassian's way of handling security rather than the pacifist federation. Despite those, feelings the constable stayed focus knowing that even now the would-be assassin could be walking right by him and he would never know.

In medical Doctor, Bashir was treating patients from an altercation from outside of Quarks. The young doctor wondered what else could he expect from this already busy day. He had been daydreaming about Dax before security entered into sickbay with this rough looking fellows. He wanted very much to ask her on a date, but at every, instance his advances have been turned away. He thought that the Trill was one of the most beautiful women he had ever met, but having several lifetimes from her Dax host did make him feel intimidated at times. Dax had already lived several lifetimes what would I have to offer her? The doctor thoughts are interrupted when Kira walks in.

"Major."

"Doctor, how are things?"

"Not too bad considering all the commotion on the station."

"What about those two involved in the altercation outside of Quarks?

"I am almost finished with them, but don't you want to talk to the person that gave them these injuries?"

"Doctor security already has him, but I want to go over everyone's records. We have the warning about the assassination attempt, and we can not take any chances."

"Major I am sure Odo can handle whatever happens at this station."

"Julian you are not from Bajor, and you look at life with your Starfleet eyes. But Bajor has always look out for Bajor. It is easy for you to say not to worry let Odo handle it because you have nothing to lose if this assassination is was successful."

Julian looks stunned by Kira's words before he can reply Odo walks in.

"Major a word with you please." With that Major Kira leaves medical with Odo.
