==[ORIGINS] USS HOOD: Living the Life==
===by Andy Catterick===
SD: 2260.335
Scene: Bridge, USS HOOD
Mark Compass sat in the command chair and spun slowly around as he stared up at the ceiling.  The orders were insane, as was the assignment.  But he didn’t care.  As of right now and for 7 more days he was Commanding Officer, USS HOOD.  One of only twelve officers currently in command of the most elite ship the quadrant had ever seen.
It didn’t matter that he currently commanded a crew of two.  Or that the warp and impulse systems were offline.  It didn’t matter that the ship was snuggled firmly into dry dock and he didn’t have the authority, much less ability, to move the ship or even leave it.  He was, for all intents and purposes, a prisoner.  But what did that matter?  What did matter was that he was in command and it was so entered into the log.  He smiled at the thought.  Entered in the log meant that it was real, it would go done on his Starfleet record.  Future commanding officers and, more importantly, the Promotions and Assignment Divisions would see it on his record.  Temporary command, even a brief one, would flash on the screen like a red alert.  Even better the nature of the command would be classified.  So here he was in temporary command of a CONSITUTION class heavy cruiser on a classified mission.
Could it get any better then this?
