<USS Avalon> A Summery of Life

A Summery of Life
By Captain Keith Ketchum
 
Keith sat in the Captain's chair on the Bridge of the Avalon, his mind 
wandered to the previous weeks events.  
 
·        His removal of his XO and 2nd Officer from duty


·        The start of an investigation as to what happened on the bridge, and 
why it escalated how it did.
 
·        The replacement of those officers with Karg and Felicity as 
temporary replacements.  He knew they would handle the duties well.
 
·        The beginning of a mission was getting underway, and he had given 
the orders to Lieutenant Snuffy to start some scans of the temporal rifts.
 
·        The Avalon was standing 50,000 kilometers off of one of the rifts.
 
Ensigns Manson and Shimbrodus were manning Ops and Helm, respectively. 
 
The glow of talking to his daughter was still apparent on his face.
 
At least the tension that was apparent on the bridge a couple of weeks back 
had eased, and they were able to get some work done.
 
“Mr. Manson, I would like continual scans of the rift.  Let me know if 
anything changes.  Mr. Shimbrodus, all stop.”
 
“Aye, Sir”, they responded in unison.
 
Keith tapped the communication button, “Ms. Delonega to the bridge, please, 
to man the Tactical station.”  Keith would normally have called Karg to the 
bridge, but as he would be handling the next shift, he felt it best to use all 
the resources available.
 
Now, all they had to do was wait to see what Mr. Snuffy came up with to give 
them some options to close the rift.   The one they were monitoring was just 
one of about ten that had opened up, with each one was being monitored by a 
vessel, just in case.
