“What do we do now?”

 

“Do you want the long explanation or the short?”

 

“Short.”

 

“Nothing.”

 

Crewman Williams considered this for a moment. “And the long explanation?”

 

“Nothing. Period.”

 

Williams, sighed, obviously not pleased. “The Redstone can take care of most things. The rest of us are assigned to security unless otherwise needed.”

 

Williams rolled his eyes and left Murray to go find nothing to do. Murray watched him go and then turned to all of the nothing that was cluttering his desk.

 

“Dickinson to Murray.”

 

“Murray here. Go ahead, Nikki.”

 

“We’re picking electromagnetic readings on approach to the station. At least six of them.”

 

“On my way. Murray to all available personnel: grab a weapon and report to the roof immediately.”

 

Then again, maybe they’d be have something to do after all.
