Through the Wormhole


by Captain Lindsey Craig, featuring Lieutant Ezri Dax

Sitting in the Chair, Lindsey tapped its arm to open a link to the shipwide 
comm-systems. "Captain Craig to the Crew, this is to announce our immenant 
departure from the Station." She closed the comm and asked the Communications 
Officer to open a channel to the station. 

"Tempest to DS9, we're ready to leave." 

"DS9 to Tempest." Came Dax?s voice. "Stand by." There was a long pause before 
the trill?s voice was once again heard. "Your clear Tempest, processed with 
disembarking procedures. Then head for the worm hold and hold position." 

"Thanks, any advice about the turbulance we'll expect through it?" 

You could almost see the smile in Dax?s voice. "Buckle your seat belts." She 
teased. "Really though, I wouldn?t worry to much. Your class of Akira was built 
to deal with wormhole travel. It shouldn?t be anything to unbearable." 

"Well that's good to know." Lindsey held back a gulp as she finally said, 
"Thanks for everything, DS9, you've been great hosts but we gotta fly." 

"See you on your first return, Tempest." Came the reply. Dax watched as the 
ship pulled away from the station with ease and made it?s way to where the 
wormhole would open. "Standing by." 

Space was pitch black for a few moments and then the smallest blink of 
something could be seen. 

"Tempest, prepare to enter on my mark." Dax said. "In 5, 4, 3,2,..... God Speed 
Tempest and good luck." 

"Take us in, Ensign," Lindsey said to the Helm. And so we're through.
