Lieutenant Kaia
Chief Engineer USS Manhattan

Shedda turned to look back at Kaia. “Oh now, I haven’t had one of those in years,” she grinned wickedly and looked at d’Aramis. “You’re welcome to stay Cmdr. But if you want to retreat to your office, we’ll understand,” she said with a grin.

“Are you kidding, Commander?”, Sebastian replied from the console he was working at. “Spending this time in my office all alone, when I can otherwise spend my time on the Bridge with a group of beautiful women? Even if one of them is only three foot tall and full of hair. I’ll take my chances on the bridge!”

“Aye,” Able replied.

“Excellent idea, Lieutenant.” Cochrane said as the turbolift doors opened. “You are acting XO in my absence. Congratulations.” and he stepped into the turbolift and the doors closed.

Cochrane, CO

“Excellent,” Shedda rubbed her hands together. “Come have a seat Kaia.”

Ben followed the Captain toward the turbolift, stepping through as the doors whizzed open. Before the doors closed, he held them back with one hand. “By the way, Commander, I have just the thing for reducing your green complexion for any future away missions,” he said with a smile, knowing full well that he was stirring the pot between the XO and the CO.

Lt. Hudson
Chief Medical Officer

Cochrane said “You didn’t hear that!” and playfully swatted the CMO’s hand away so the doors closed before the XO could reply.

“Yes I did!” Shedda called as the doors closed. She laughed as Cochrane disappeared with the rest of the away team.

He looked at Hudson and said “Ben, I’ve been stuck on this ship for almost a year without any time on-mission with an Away Team. If you mess this up for me, we are going to have a serious discussion about the trajectory of your career, Doctor.” and he chuckled.

Cochrane, CO

Nightroad, Engineer

Moving away from his station to join Cochrane and Hudson on the turbolift for away team duty Eilah spoke. “I have the threat assessment Captain. Their combat technology appears slightly more advanced than what their level of space exploration might suggest, though still barely able to scratch the Manhattan - plasma cannons, a few spatial torpedoes, nuclear weapons and power. They didn’t appear to have developed true defensive shields yet. Judging from their database they seem remarkably open-minded and welcoming of others, and in fact have had a unified world government for decades.”

“Alright,” Shedda said to the officer now at tactical. “Let’s keep in mind their weapons and the fact they have no real shielding. All low yield and only to warn them if necessary. We aren’t going to cause them any harm. Understood?”

Cmdr. Mal’athar, XO

“Aye, ma’am. Warning shots only,” NE Pitchford replied. “I take it we can keep our defensive systems on cold standby?”

“Yes, though hidden behind the moon we probably are alright. Call down and have two shuttles put on stand by just in case.”

Cmdr. Mal’athar, XO

“good luck, Captain,” d’Aramis replied as the lift doors slid closed.
