Captain to the Bridge
by Captain Keith Ketchum
Keith sat in his office when the light on his desk lit up. Interesting he
thought to himself, that is only if there is a mutiny occuring on the bridge.
Keith wondered what would cause a bridge officer to activate that. He pulled
up the station that activated the alarm, and it was Ensign Michaelson at Helm.
Keith walked out of his office and towards the ramp to the bridge, he could
hear the conversation as he neared the back of the bridge. He decided it was
best to stay out of sight to find out what was going on, because if it were a
true mutiny, he would want to get to the lower decks.
"I am seriously questioning your intentions, Commander, and whether or not
they're in the best interest of the crew and Starfleet interests."
"What exactly is your problem with the mission to begin with? Plus I will
have you know that you do not scare me. I have gone against the best and come
out
ahead and with decorations from the Romulan government for it. So I am not
worried. I have my orders whether you want to believe them or not."
"That's just it, you have NO orders. We didn't receive any word from
Starfleet Command and there isn't an entry about a mission update from the
Captain -
you're just doing whatever the hell you want. I'm relieving you of duty,
Commander, I'm taking command of the bridge."
“I am not scared of your little phaser Javan. You may not have seen the
orders and they may not have been written down yet, but never the less they
were
given by the Captain."
"No, you said it yourself that we're going where you want. You're talking in
circles, Commander, and now you're not making sense. She's putting you all in
harms way and you follow her blindly. You all must be informed that the
Captain hasn't approved the Commander's orders, and Starfleet Command hasn't
even
dispatched us to go anywhere. We're going wherever she wants and I won't let it
happen. I am inclined to take command until the Captain decides what to do."
"Who are you going to believe? Someone with enough misconduct reports to
wallpaper his office or some one you know, who follows the orders. Who does
what
the Captain asks of her and doesn't go and do reckless things?"
"Who holds petty grudges, one specifically against me because I dropped her
ass because I felt her sucking the life from me? She can't let go that I dumped
her and that I moved on. She's the mentally unstable one. Get her off the
bridge."
"I'll go, only so that no one gets hurt but just so you know I have moved on
to bigger and Better things. Why I wasted time on You I will never know. At
least that part of my live is over. Thank God! Shall we go Gentlemen?"
"Fellas, get some popcorn so you can watch her show. Put up the wall because
she's never hurt and she's the strong one."
Keith waited until Skyler had been taken into the turbolift and he could hear
Javan move to the center seat and sit. He had appeared at the back of the
bridge with a finger to his lips so that the Ops officer would not denote his
presence.
"Ensign, full stop. Captain to the bridge."
"The Captain is already on the bridge, Commander." His voice seemed to echo
off the walls. "Report!" His voice had a little pinch of irritablility in it
as he spoke.
