MD 7.0400<br> | |||
Lt. Commander Maril's Quarters<br> | |||
Maril woke up for the fourth time since he had gone to sleep ten hours | |||
before. Several dreams, which were actually closer to nightmares, had | |||
shortened the actual time he had been asleep to about seven hours. | |||
He decided to stay awake this time. There was no use trying to sleep when | |||
all he could think of was his family. He sat down near his window, and just | |||
stared out into space...it was hard for him to imagine the universe without his | |||
family.... | |||
Ferengi Transport _Gain Through Greed_: Bridge | |||
"Yes...I think I see your plan, Remin," Daimon Lir said as he smiled | |||
greedily. "We take our passengers to the other side of Vandel VI from Rori | |||
Station. Then we demand that they give us their valuables or...." | |||
"We crash into the surface!" Ribo, the first officer, laughed. | |||
"Mr. Remin, set a course for Vandel VI, Warp 8," Lir ordered. All of the | |||
bridge crew, which was entirely Ferengi, laughed and laughed. | |||
FT _GTG_: Passenger Compartment B-9 | |||
Maril's family--his mother, Perun; his sister, Mikel; her husband, Asfero; | |||
and Maril's brother, Bero--were gathered in the compartment. They were | |||
discussing some rather strange occurrences. | |||
For instance, the Ferengi had denied them access to communications equipment | |||
and had all but sealed them off to the outside world. They had then proceeded | |||
to explode quantities of metals found in the ship's hull outside the transport. | |||
The four Tamarians realized this wasn't normal. | |||
They agreed that they would need to take control of the ship. Perun, being a | |||
starship designer, would be able to do that easily. They then agreed that they | |||
should also turn the ship over to the authorities somewhere. | |||
"But, to what city?" Mikel asked. Her question actually meant something like | |||
"Where should we go?" | |||
At that point, Perun started to "hack" into the transport's computer, while | |||
Mikel, Asfero, and Bero argued about where to go. | |||
Finally, Perun said, "We have breached the walls of Dibago. The telescope | |||
sees the 'United Federation of Planets'." | |||
"Then, we ride to Earth!" Bero suggested. | |||
The others nodded in agreement. | |||
"Riding to Earth, 656 times the star's speed," Perun reported. In English, | |||
it would have been, "Course set for Earth, Warp 7."" | |||
MD 7.1000 | |||
USS Feynman: Bridge | |||
Maril was still feeling rather depressed, but you couldn't have figured that | |||
out from his face. Although he didn't smile that much, he seemed to be simply | |||
his unemotional, quiet self. | |||
Commander Zane had told Maril to excuse Lt. Jenn's absence from the Bridge. | |||
Something about personal matters. WO Bellad had returned to duty, so Maril had | |||
invited him to take Ops for the shift. It would have been rather unfair to | |||
order Garret or Ein to take ALPHA since they already had shifts. | |||
It was rather quiet that day on the Bridge, but inside Maril's mind, it was a | |||
wild storm.... | |||
MD 7.1400 | |||
Transporter Room 1 | |||
As the Feynman's newest CSciO, Ensign Jakkao Serra, beamed aboard, Maril | |||
extended a hand and greeted him. | |||
"Hello, Ensign Serra. The door has been opened. Your quarters are...Deck 5, | |||
Section 4, Quarters 3. I suggest you get settled in, and then meet me in my | |||
office at 1700 hours. Understood?" | |||
"Yes, sir," the CSciO replied. | |||
MD 7.1700 | |||
First Officer's Office | |||
Maril, though still disturbed, was feeling better. "Come," he answered when | |||
there was a chime at the door. | |||
Ensign Serra walked in. "Sit," Maril suggested, and Serra did. | |||
"Mr. Serra, the Feynman has one of the most advanced sensor arrays in | |||
Starfleet--the DELPHI array. As Chief Science Officer of this ship, you will | |||
be expected to provide answers when needed, considering you have such a tool to | |||
work with. I think you know most everything else that a CSciO does, but I also | |||
need you to provide me with an officer at the Science I station for all three | |||
shifts. I assume you will take the ALPHA shift?" | |||
"Ummm...-" | |||
[Bridge to Commander Maril. We have an incoming message for you from a ship | |||
in orbit of Earth.] | |||
"Hmmm. Patch it through to my office. Maril out." Turning to Serra, he | |||
said, "Dismissed." | |||
Ensign Serra was just about to walk out the door when Maril said, "One more | |||
thing, Mr. Serra." | |||
"Yes, sir?" | |||
"I was the Chief Science Officer of the Feynman...the first one, in fact. If | |||
you work hard here, it can be a dream come true. If not, that dream may become | |||
a nightmare." | |||
"Aye, sir," Serra said as he left. | |||
As he put the message on his screen, tears started to come down his face. Not | |||
tears of sadness, but tears of joy. The face that appeared on the screen was | |||
his mother's. | |||
"Came back from the depths of Fitabio!" Maril exclaimed.. | |||
His mother agreed to come aboard the Feynman with the other three. Maril | |||
then transferred the link to his father's quarters. | |||
"Maril to Zane." | |||
[Zane here.] | |||
"Sir, I would like to know if four members of my family could come aboard for | |||
a visit. They are already in orbit of Earth." | |||
[The four that were missing! Of course, Onta.] | |||
"Thank you, sir. Maril out." | |||
MD 7.1800 | |||
Shuttlebay 2 | |||
Maril stood, waiting for his four family members to step out of the shuttle | |||
whichhad just landed. Finally, they did. Maril and his father embraced the four for what seemed | |||
like an hour, although when Maril checked the chronometer, it had only been a | |||
few minutes. There was something wrong, but Maril couldn't figure out what it was. | |||
Finally, he realized. Before Maril could say anything, his sister answered his | |||
question unknowingly. "Where should the river be?" she asked. | |||
"Why would a river be needed?" Maril exclaimed. Then, he nodded. It was | |||
obvious Mikel was going to have a baby. | |||
"The horse fell on its way?" Mikel asked. Maril nodded again. | |||
They were walking out of the shuttlebay when suddenly Mikel cried out in | |||
pain. Then, she fell down and cried out again. "The source has been found!" | |||
she yelled. | |||
Maril grabbed Mikel and her husband. "Computer, Sickbay!" he yelled as they | |||
into a turbolift. | |||

Well, that solves Maril's emotional problems. So, don't worry, Kristen, Maril | |||
will be there! :) | |||
Lysle, Andrew, Charles: Cancel the BrOT for now. :) | |||
Lysle: I don't care if you and your character are sick, you're delivering that | |||
baby! ;) | |||
Bill: Welcome to the Feynman! I know most of this was probably gibberish to you. | |||
Just know that four members of Maril's family had been missing, and Marill | |||
thought they were dead. :( But now they're okay! :) | |||
Jospeh: Got another shuttle to add to your list. ;) | |||
