Captain Zena Quetan
USS Gagarin
Zena strolled slowly down the corridor, her hands gently clasped behind her
back, beside her Commander Sebastian Bennett walked with her.
"All systems have now been checked and are running at 100% She's in fine shape
Captain" Bennett commented as they turned the bend
"Excellent" Zena replied nodding and smiling at a passing officer as she did so
They stepped into the turbolift
"So how's Kass?" Zena asked her first officer taking the conversation away from
work for a moment
"Tired!" Sebastian replied smiling
"I'll bet!....twins! must be hard work... I'm surprised you've been reporting
for duty on time!" Zena laughed
"Wanna know my secret? coffee and lots of it!" he said with a grin
The lift came to a stop and the doors swished open revealing the bridge, the
two stepped out and the officer who was in command took to their station
"So have we missed anything interesting?" Zena asked the bridge staff as she
sat in her chair
"Lieutenant Krell sneezed" Lieutenant Duffy replied cheekily
"Ah, well I'm sorry I missed it!" Zena laughed "Lieutenant Duffy can you set a
course for Starbase Neptune"
"Aye Captain" Duffy replied
"Captain a priority message has just been received" Krell informed them just as
the course had been set.
"Belay that order Duffy, Lieutenant Krell can you patch the message through to
my office please" Zena stood and exited the bridge "Commander she's all yours"
she said to Bennett as she walked into her office.
Zena sat down at her desk, she glanced at the holopicture which sat upon it, it
was of her and Jaav on their visit to Bajor, Soman Drath had recommended a
peaceful province to them during their time on the Vanguard and a few years ago
they finally got the chance to visit it, it was as beautiful as Drath told them
it was, she remembered how Jaav slipped off the edge of a river bank and
drenched himself trying to get a photo of her on the other side, he was too
busy attempting to get the camera at the "best angle" he didnt realise how
close he was to the edge, she smiled at the memory.
She opened up the message and read it....it was from Jaav, the situation on
Trill had worsened and the USS Gagarin had been requested to go to Trill to
help.
Zena quickly returned to the bridge "Slight change of plan....Set a course to
Trill, maximum warp"
Bennett gave her a puzzled look
I'll explain on the way Zena assured him sitting down once again in her chair
As they travelled Zena stared into space she couldn't deny that she was looking
forward to seeing her husband again but the circumstances were more than
worrying....
