Ensign Valharra after walking out of the Captain’s office, had entered Lt. Mwezi’s old office. He sat in the chair behind the desk and put the case with the Sheriff stars and gun down on the desk and teared up. “I will miss you, Lt. Mwezi. Thank you for everything you taught me.” He said to the empty room. Then the announcement came over the intercom.
(copied from https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf5/chernov/posts/143793/) “[O]Doctor Symar. We are twelve hours out from your destination. Please have all of your personnel ready and assembled in Shuttlebay 1 by that time.[O]

[O] Security. Arm yourselves and meet in Shuttlebay 2 in twelve hours for your assignments as well. All other security officers will arm themselves and patrol the ship and set up posts in key areas.[O]

Taking a deep breath before Toggling again. [O] Bridge to the Chernov crew! We will be entering the Nuetral Zone territory in one hour. I want everyone to arm themselves that is qualified to do so. We will be running quite so no outside transmissions are allowed. We’ll be in yellow alert from this moment on. Be safe and be careful. Taggart out.[O]”

He got up and walked out to the brig and the security team working at their sections. “Well, as you all know, Lt. Mwezi is not coming back, and I was just in the Captain’s office, effective immediately, as you’ve probably noticed by my new pips, I have been promoted to Lieutenant, and am the new Weapon’s Officer/Chief of Security. But, as the Captain has also stated, we are almost to our next mission destination, and we need to get ready, so grab your weapons, and kits and get to the shuttle bay, I will meet you there.” He told the staff. He went back into Lt. Mwezi’s old office, now his and grabbed the small sheriff badge and attached it to his uniform.
Lt. Valharra, Weapons Officer
