Shedda watched her contemplate. Shedda wasn’t sure if it would help, but it was something different. It might help Sair see how she belonged, or how she might belong. And one thing Shedda did I ow, they would both learn a lot from Alex. “Holodeck 2, 0500 tomorrow. Thank you Sair. I will let you get back to work.”

Shedda left and sent off a quick note to Alex that Sair would be joining them. Then she went for lunch, in the officer mess, like she promised. Not for long she had meetings right after, but she went.

Slightly before 0500 the next day, Shedda was outside the holodeck. She waited for Sair before she went in.

Sair arrived, looking, well a little nervous. She was in her usual substitute for a uniform (black trousers and a blue tunic) and wearing suitable ankle boots. She hurried over, catching her breath. “Sorry, hopefully I’m not late. Tried to get Koro to daycare early but he was confused at the hour and not having any of it. But I’m ready when you are.”

“You’re right on time. I think I agree with him. I don’t like having to get up early if I don’t have to. I’m sure it was confusing for him.” Shedda moved over to the control panel and seeing the program running she stepped up to the door and triggered it to open.

The door slid open to reveal Cochrane standing inside. He looked at the Counselor, blinked twice, and then suddenly said “Excellent! Counselor, welcome.” and looked at Mal’athar and nodded. “Thinking outside the box,Commander… I like it. Well, come on in.” and he turned and waved the forward.

The simulation was paused, and seemed like the previous ones Mal’athar had been in. The setting was the Bridge of the Manhattan and all of the bridge crew was present and motionless.

“Now then… Commander, take the center chair. Counselor, how familiar are you with the *Manhattan’s tactical systems? Shields, weapons, and such?”

Shedda moved toward the center of the bridge glancing at consoles, the view screen, the crew, and the control panels on the center seat as she sat. An attempt to see gather information before things got started. If there was something to see she knew Alex had planned it very carefully.
