As instructed, Bethany went about her day as normal. She drank way too much coffee, participated in PT, had a private hand to hand class with Ridad, did weapons checks of the phasers and other weapons they had taken on board, did a few hours on the bridge, and of course that morning she’d reprogrammed ‘Jack’.

After her shift she went to shower and changed because well, Bethany didn’t like walking around in rumbled, sweaty, dirty clothes unless she had to. She donned a billowing black cotton capris that tightened with a tie below her knees, and a cinnamon colored sleeveless button up blouse. Then at exactly 1730 Bethany walked into sickbay spotted Ryley and spoke to a nurse. “Tell the doc I’m here for our date.”
