"I can only imagine that he's going to come at me with all barrels firing.
How far will his accusations be allowed to go? He's got a real power complex
and I even think-with all due respect Admiral-" to Jackson-"that you will
have your hands full." David was clearly almost scare of what will happen
with VanDerLoo.
Admiral Jackson had been listening to the conversation, but had been working
on the lift off until that moment. Upon clearing the station, the Runabout
jumped to Warp and would be on autopilot for some time. He turned his chair
and decided he should jump into the conversation. "David, I have no
intention of letting him take over this investigation or the line of
questioning. We are here to look into what happened and the causes. That
means keeping an open mind and listening to people's answers, but it does
not mean that we overlook the facts to allow someone to rant."
David's eyes cleared a bit--he had gone into a terrified rant, "I'm
sorry...to both of you." He looked down, "This, to be blunt, just scares the
hell out of me." It was clear that this trip was going to be extremely
difficult for him.
Joanna reached across and placed a hand on David's hand. "There is no
reason to apologize, David. You have had a bad experience, and a lot of
that occurred directly because of Admiral Van Der Loo. You are going to
feel anxiety. Just remember that Admiral Jackson and myself are here for
support as well as to make sure we all get to the root of what happened."
