(snip)As the program faded around them, the almost immediate silence was punctured by the sounds of singular, and enthusiastic, applause. From behind them appeared the figure of Captain Cobb, his blue eyes dancing with delight as a grin spread across his face.
“I hope you don’t mind but I took a seat at the back of the bar for the last couple of rounds. And I have to say, I was most impressed by both of you.”
- Captain Zachariah Cobb
Surda laughed. “Perhaps we ought to make a show of it.”
-Surda, CoSCasela grinned and laughed, a deep rich sound that had her bending over. “Oh I think we could arrange that. Maybe take requests?” She grinned over at Cobb though with a flourish of a bow. “I’m glad you enjoyed it.” She’d knew he’d been there, even without her telepathy she’d heard the doors to the holodeck open. She’d bet money Surda had as well. “I don’t mind at all. I have to say though I’m rather disappointed Captain that you didn’t join us.” And with a cheeky grin and a wink. “I guess I should be lucky you didn’t storm the holodeck with a full contingent of security officers.”
Lt Synthi-er, CNS“Now Cas, I don’t think either of you needed any assistance from me,” Cobb replied as he began to follow the two warriors to the exit. “And I had no intention of spoiling your fun. Believe me,” he added with a wink to Surda, “I haven’t survived this long without learning when to jump in and when to leave well alone!”
“And anyway,” he continued with a chuckle, “I suspect I need to conserve my energy for whatever Lt Surda here will have in store for us on her training program. You never know, I might just surprise you all with what this old dog is still capable of.”
- Captain Zachariah Cobb
“It’s just some friendly games!” Surda stifled a chuckle. “It’ll be fun.” She did wish he’d joined them though. The more the merrier after all. “I assume you’ve heard of laser tag?”
-Surda, CoSShe’d played laser tag as a child. It had been one of the few games she and the other older children had participated in after the resistance. “I’m all for that.” She tucked a hand into Cobb’s elbow, being very cheeky. “I claim you for my team Cpt. I am all for seeing whatever tricks you know, and I have no desire to be on the receiving end. I don’t like to lose.”
Lt. Synthi-er, CNS“Wise choice, Miss Synthi-er,” Zachariah replied, patting her hand on his arm. “Wise choice.”
With a chuckle, he stepped out into the corridor and prepared to return to his afternoon’s duties after the respite just enjoyed on the holodeck. Although first, he would have to look through all the information the computer held on this ‘laser tag’ so that he could be as prepared as possible for Surda’s event. His reputation was now on the line and as the captain of this ship, he aimed to impress.
- Captain Zachariah Cobb
Surda grinned. “Hopefully he isn’t under the illusion that’s the only thing we’ll do.”
-Surda, CoSAs the captain left, Casela looked at Surda and grinned. Once he was out of sight she began to laugh quietly. “Oh I’m sure he is, or he’s hoping anyway, but we won’t ruin the surprise for him. I will let you get back to work, Lt. And congratulations on your promotion. Let me know the next time you want to run one of these programs. Oh and RTF training is every night from 2000 to 2300 in the training holodeck.”
Lt. Synthi-er, CNS
Surda laughed. She might just join in.
-Surda, CoS
