Scene: Bridge<br> | |||
Meleah stepped out of the turbolift onto the bridge. Because some of the | |||
other senoir officers were in need of medical attention, she had been called | |||
upon to command Beta shift. Because she did not need any sleep, and was not | |||
damaged, she was a logical choice for the position. LtCmdr Maril was in the | |||
command chair, and he stood up when Meleah came into view. "Cmdr, Dr. | |||
Glin'kharr wishes you to go down to Sickbay as soon as your shift has finished." | |||
"Thank-you," he replied and proceeded to inform her of the situation | |||
(nothing had really happened so far). He then left the bridge and Meleah | |||
seated herself in the command chair. This was her first command shift on | |||
the Feynman, and in an unusual sort of way, she was looking forward to it. | |||
She made the usual department checks, keep an eye out for the pirates, and | |||
generaly had a uneventful shift. But she didn't get bored simply because | |||
she couldn't get bored. | |||
At 0030 hours, as her extended shift was up, she tapped her badge and said, | |||
"Bridge to Cmdr Maril." | |||
There was a few seconds wait, then a groggy sounding voice said [Yes] | |||
"We are exactly thirty minutes away from the pirate base. The Captain | |||
informed me that all senior officers were to be on the bridge, if possible, | |||
when we arrived." | |||
[I'm on my way.] | |||
Meleah then switched her attention to Zane. "Bridge to Cmdr Zane." | |||
[Yes?] sounded a voice that indicated he was wide awake. | |||
"We are twenty-nine minutes away from arrival" | |||
[Thank-you, Lt.] | |||
A few minutes later, Zane, Maril, Krysa, and Allard arrived. Jerran had | |||
arrived slightly earlier than the others and was already seated at his | |||
station. Meleah relinquished the chair, which she had investigated during | |||
her shift, and took up her chair at the science station as Ens Loth was | |||
still in sickbay. | |||
------ | |||
NRPG: | |||
Meleah just *had* to sit in the command chair! This makes my nrpg post | |||
partly redundant, although I still wish to know how often Meleah would have | |||
a command shift. | |||
Sincerely yours, | |||
Lt. Meleah, CSciO, USS FEYNMAN, Silver Fleet. | |||
Melanie Pocknall. |
