Capt Sull's Quarters - Deck 1
|
|
Claire nodded in acknowledgement to what Azeri had said to her and smiled. Capt Sull was being extremely gracious considering her debilitating condition that was on the mend.
Capt Bennet:
You're very welcome, Captain. I'll be heading to the Bridge for now, so if you need anything at all and Ensign Montoya is available, I'll send him to you immediately. Rest well!
The Captain watched as Capt Sull rolled onto her side and put her arm around her companion, Patience. Smiling, Claire walked towards the exit of the Captain's cabin and left Azeri to relax in her Quarters. As Capt Bennet continued to the Turbolift, she thought about what a unique lifeform Patience was and how good it for Azeri to have her by her side during her recovery. Entering the lift, Claire descended down to Deck 2 and walked out onto the Bridge. Seeing that Cmdr Sladek was still not on the Bridge, the Captain asked Lt. Gutierrez what occurred in her absence.
Capt Bennet:
What happened in my absence, Mateo? Anything new on the evacuation of the refugees from New Bajor?
As the CO waited for the Chief Flight Control Officer to fill her in on the evacuation of the children standing around in the terrible weather going on down around the extraction site. Claire knew once it was time for Eureka to start beaming up the child refugees, the Captain wanted to maximize the amount of children the California Class Starship could accommodate. Even if that meant housing them in other parts of the ship, besides the Holodecks. Capt Bennet wanted to make sure not a single child would be left behind. _________________

The Captain took her seat on the Bridge as she listened to Lt. Gutiérrez inform her of the report that Oriskany had increased the amount of refugees that could be beamed up from the extraction site. Claire was really impressed with the number of children the ships could transport at one time.
Capt Bennet:
That's wonderful news, Mateo! Mr. Ramius, be sure we'll be ready to beam up that amount of children when the time comes, okay? Captain Sull is doing fine, but she'll be recuperating in her cabin for a while. I think it's about time Commander Sladek, woke up and resumed his duties. Even though there's not much happening.
Tapping her Combadge, the Captain called out to the XO.
Capt Bennet:
Bennet to Commander Sladek! It's time to wake up, Ulrich! You've been asleep for well over an hour! Please report to the Bridge as soon as you can, Bennet out!
Now that Claire handled the situation with the sleeping XO in the Arboretum, she looked over to the Ops Station and waited to hear back from Marko if he would be able to accommodate beaming up 120 children at a time from the extraction site. Once the XO arrived on the Bridge, the CO would fill him in on the extraction number being increased. Then Capt Bennet would go to the Ready Room and contact Adm Arayuss and give him a report on Capt Sull's condition, as he requested. _________________

Arboretum - Deck 4
|

Ulric was awakened by the sound of Capt Bennet's voice over his Combadge ordering the Commander to return to the Bridge. Tapping his Communicator Badge, the First Officer responded to the Captain, who was on the Bridge.
Cmdr Sladek:
Sladek here, Captain! I'm on my way to the Bridge, see you soon, Sladek out!
Getting up from beneath a large tree, Ulric brushed off the grass from his uniform and quickly walked to the door and exited the Arboretum. Making his way to the closest Turbolift, the XO indicated that his destination was the Bridge on Deck 2. Moving at the usual fast pace the lift system uses, the Commander arrived on the Bridge in just a matter of moments. Walking out of the Turbolift, Ulric walked over and took his seat to the right of Capt Bennet and smiled at her.
Cmdr Sladek:
I'm here as ordered, Captain. Did I miss anything while I was away on tour of this marvelous vessel of yours?
The XO looked around the Bridge and saw that all the officers in attendance were monitoring their stations at this time, meaning that nothing was really happening presently. Ulric wondered why he was ordered to the Bridge at such an uneventful time. Cmdr Sladek thought it might be possible the Captain needed him on the Bridge so she could go to her Ready Room for some official business. Whatever the reason Ulric was summoned to the Bridge, he was sure to find out soon enough. _________________

Ulric nodded at Capt Bennet as she let him know what he wasn't aware of while he was on tour with Ens Montoya around Eureka. The XO was very pleased to hear about Mr. and Mrs. Orte being rescued and the excellent skills of Dr. Edison removing the Xenomorph embryos from their chest cavities. Learning that they could now beam up 120 refugees from the extraction site was absolutely terrific, 40 was just too small of an amount and would leave the children and Infiniti's Marines down there in mortal danger. When the Captain mentioned she needed to speak with Adm Arayuss in her Ready Room, Cmdr Sladek was more than happy to oblige.
Cmdr Sladek:
That's wonderful to hear, Captain! I'll watch over the Bridge while you speak with the Admiral. Let him know that I'm very happy with his decision to post me here aboard Eureka as your First Officer. The crew has been very welcoming to me.
As Ulric remained seated in the XO's chair, he waited to see Capt Bennet enter the Ready Room so she could have a private conversation with the Commander in Chief of Gamma Fleet. Cmdr Sladek served with the Admiral for a short time while they were on their way to New Bajor from SB34, but Ulric really admired Adm Arayuss. Cmdr Sladek was quite pleased the Admiral promoted him to the rank of Commander and presented him with the position of XO of Eureka. Ulric couldn't help but wonder what would happen when Capt Sull was well enough to take her position as CO back from Capt Bennet. Would the current Captain be demoted back to Commander and resume her previous duties as XO? If that happened, what would become of Ulric? Would he resume his position as the Chief Sec/Tac Officer of Sutherland? Would he also be reduced in rank to Lieutenant Commander as well? These thoughts raced through Ulric's mind as he sat in his chair on the Bridge and watched as the other officers monitored their consoles at their stations. For now, Cmdr Sladek was quite comfortable in his current position aboard Eureka. But for how long would that last, Ulric did not know... _________________
