He was sitting in his ready room going over many data padds. His head was about to explode. He stood up and walked out his ready room and onto the bridge. Techs was still working Hard to get this ship finished for the shake down cruise. Stepping over them he went and sat down in his chair.
He typed in a few things and started getting status reports. The ship should be ready in two days. Great he thought to himself.. this will be great to finally get on the way.

Speaking out his command codes he open the channel.
"Captain Rowland here"
"Hello Captain, are you settling in ok?"
"Yes Admiral Stone, How can I help you to day?"
"You ready for action yet Captain?"
"Yes Sir ready to get this ship out into space"
"Very Well im changing the launch time, I want you to get on the way in 12 hours. Your first Mission is to begin talks with the leader of the Pride Landian Empire a King Simbaka Rafikin. Starfleet has had only a small trade agreement but seems the wanna up the ante. We are sending you and you ship in to begin talks. I don't have to tell you Robert Starfleet is gonna be watching this one. Be on your toes."
"I understand Admiral Stone."
"Good, then Ill let you get to work..... Stone out."
He closed the channel sat back in his chair , spinning around to look out the window that was behind him, the metal from the docking ring was all he could see. Then he reached up hitting his commbadge.
"Commander Kirk and Cadat Roberts report to my ready room"
the he just sat there staring out the window till they came.

Hearing the captain's voice, he stepped forward and into the ready room. He moved towards the captain's desk as the doors slid shut behind him and stopped, clasping his hands behind his back.
"Yes sir?"

He looked up at the Commander, the look on his face was one of unhappyiness "Starfleet is advancing our time table, and we will have to do the shakedown cruise on our first mission. We are heading to the planet Pride Landian, seems there leader wants to open talks with the federation again. We leave in 12 hours, I want you to check with the Chief engineer and make sure everything will be a go then. I will plan a Senior Officers meeting shortly."
"Any Questions?"

He frowned slightly seeing his captain's unhappiness. As Rowland went over their orders, a look of thoughtfulness came across his face, and he nodded.
"Aside from occasionally wondering how totally sane the boys at Starfleet Command are?" he shook his head and sighed some, before a small smirk came to his lips. "No sir, I suppose not. We'll be ready in 12 hours, if I have to make Locke get out and push us out of drydock."

That blasted yeoman had tip toed in right behind the Commander. She was virtually blocked from view by his body. A nice body, she noted. Fit, strong. Moving right along, she schooled her face and tugged her uniform and tried to clear her throat very quietly. She would need her voice. Maybe. Maybe she wouldn't. If she just stood around looking decorative, maybe she wouldn't have to speak at all. Her mouth tightened slightly. No .. no, she was not going that route. She had brains, blast it, so use them! If only she could get her brain and mouth functioning together.
She eavesdropped, naturally, and jumped slightly when he wanted to know where his yeoman was.
"Here, sir!" Oh joys of joys, her voice worked. She stepped slightly to the side of the Commander-with-the-nice-body.

"How long you been standing there? Nevermind, I want you to find all the information on the planet Pride Landian including the current trade agreement, and then prepare a report for each of the senior officers and place the padds in the conference room, you have around 3 hours so I suggest you get moving"

He was giving her an actual job? Not like getting him coffee or tea or making sure his laundry is done or anything like that? But a real job? This she could do. She was perfect for this kind of job. But her parents ... well, they had drilled it into her that she was decoration, and as a yeoman, she would be expect to cater to every whim of an ungrateful, abusing captain, but if she got into StarFleet, it would make up for all her sins. And she had alot of sins, they told her. Well then. Ok. Task!! Yipps!
"Yes sir! Im so on it! Thank you! Thank you so much!"
She did a little dip of her knees almost like a curtsy, and also saluted him, her eyes face glowing, and out the door she bolted.

As he patiently waited to be dismissed by the captain, he watched the exchange between Rowland and Roberts, face remaining neutral but smiling on the inside. Ah, to be young again.
When she finally took off out the door, he turned to watch her go... maybe take a peek at how her uniform accentuated(sp?) her ass-ets, then turned back to the captain and finally let the smile come to his lips.
"Young'ns," he chuckled.

Still smiling, he shook his head. "I think that covers it, sir."
With a slight nod, he turned and walked out of the ready room.

He was sitting at his desk going over reports when his computer screen bleep as more reports and orders came in. He noticed one was from his new Science Officer.

Stopping just short of the Captain's doors, his presence was alerted to the 'old man' with the usual chime of the computer.
