"Hrrmf, bio chip?" A large human held out a hand impatiently and | |||
slotted the chip in a reader as soon as it was passed across. "CSciO? I | |||
have an opening or two for someone in sciences. Let's see." He tapped | |||
another PADD a few times. The Feynman could use a good sciences officer." | |||
He looked up at Bishop and back down at the bio before him. | |||
"Well, barring the arrival of him, could I take a crack at it?" | |||
The Admiral looked up to see a straight face and an ulmost Vulcan | |||
like calm. He growled softly and looked back down while Kevin stood there | |||
waiting. "I believe I will let you 'take a crack at it' but if I here you | |||
were not up to the job your next chance will be inventory for the grey | |||
fleet. Now the Feynman is on a communications blackout except for log buoys | |||
sent encoded directly to me. I do not have a way of contacting them that | |||
you are coming and they may be a little jumpy right now. I would recomend | |||
you approach the ship with caution and hail them from a good distance. If | |||
they tell you to stand off, or even to return to Epsilon, ask no questions | |||
and do as the CO orders. I have arranged for a D-Warp ship to be available | |||
to take you to the Epsilon Indi system where the Feynman should be dealing | |||
with a crisis on a Dyson Ring. I am not at liberty to give you any further | |||
information than that." The Admiral hesitated for a moment. "I know you | |||
are fresh out of the Academy and all hot and raring to show us what you've | |||
got but listen to me son. I'm tossing you into the deep end. If this | |||
mission goes wrong millions of lives may be lost. I don't even know if | |||
there is a right way for this mission to go. Your bio says you can keep a | |||
cool head. I pray that they weren't lying because you are going to need | |||
one. I have a personal message for you to give to the CO. 'Time is | |||
measured in days now, information is leaking and action will be soon, close | |||
or have closure inflicted.' Have you got that Ensign?" | |||
Ensign Bishop nodded slowly repeating the message once to himself | |||
and wondering what it meant. | |||
"Then dismissed. You can catch the D-Warp in docking bay 3." | |||

Just spurring on the Feynman with the message.<br> | |||
Feynman, meet Ian aka Ensign Kevin Bishop<br> | |||
barbro.stenquist@mailbox.swipnet.se | |||
Ian, one of this lot ought to be contacting you with a complte mailing list | |||
and all that jazz. Welcome to Silver fleet. | |||
oh this might be right, they will confirm it | |||
