The Security Chief came barreling down the passage way sending crew scattering for shelter in doorways, side passages, or wherever they could go to get out of the mobile mountain’s way. “Move move move!!” he bellowed as he hit teh turbo lift at an almost dead sprint. =/\= Shuttle Bay 2, dammit!=/\= he barked and the turbolift began it’s trip.As the doors opened, Mardusk moved witha surprising amount of speed to the Flight Control operator on duty. “Lieutenant. You’re gonna have a shuttle dropping out of warp and inbound any second. They are cleared to dock.” he said between some deep breaths.
“I don’t have anything on the schedule, Lieutenant. And you know how the Skipper hates unannounced visi-“
“It’s a Star Fleet Vice Admiral, and she is here to see me… not the Skipper.” And at that moment a shuttle dropped out of warp less than a hundred kilometers from the Atlantis. =/\= Atlantis, this Federation Shuttle Trifecta. Request permission to dock. =/\=
Mardusk cursed slightly and listened over the comms to see how the bridge reacted.
Mardusk, CoS
=/\= Shuttle Trifecta, this is Lieutenant Commander Nash. We do not have you on our list of visitors today, but I have a docking clearance filled out for you. This is unusual, please state your business on board the Atlantis. =/\=
Nash sat back and toyed with the controls on the arm of the chair, that they happened to be the controls for manual targeting might have been coincidence, maybe not.
Lt Cmdr Nash, CTO
A female voice came back and said =/\= Atlantis. Shuttle Trifecta. My business is personal, and the clearance has been approved. I’m not used to having my actions questioned further, Mr. Nash. Now if you would be so kind as to allow me to dock, I will happily discuss any… inconvenience… in person. Trifecta out. =/\=
Nash was highly unimpressed at the tone and implied threat, and he didn’t much care that she didn’t care for having her actions questioned. It was his job, he had the seat and he had the bomb. Her avoiding the questions was also not a good way to step onto his ship, so, he was about to open the comm to order the shuttle to hold position pending a security check on the transponder codes, when the line opened for him.
Following the exchange, Mardusk’s voice came over the comms. =/\= Commander Nash, I approved the clearance. Trust me. This is one you really don’t wanna deal with. =/\=
Mardusk, CoS
Nash tapped his fingers on the arm of the chair a moment, maybe he did wanna deal with that one, but in any case, he would let Mardusk play with this one himself. =/\= You know I don’t trust anyone Mardusk, but seeing as it’s you, I’ll drop shields and welcome them aboard. Maybe you should teach her the correct way to board a Federation Star Ship while she’s here. =/\=
Clicking over the comm, he hailed the shuttle once more.
=/\= Shuttle Trifecta, you are cleared to dock. Enjoy your stay. =/\= Not waiting for an answer he closed the comm and nodded to Operations, who dropped the shields for the shuttle to board.
Lt Cmdr Nash, Tactical
The sound of relief was almost palpable in the Security Chief’s voice. =/\= Appreciate it, Commander. I owe you a drink. =/\=
Looking at the Flight Control officer, Mardusk said “Ok. Bring her in and let’s get this done.”.
Mardusk, CoS
The shuttle slid into the docking bay with practiced ease, and came to settle on the deck. Before the engines had even wound down, the hatch opened and a female Orion with brilliant emerald skin and wearing a Star Fleet Command uniform with Vice Admiral pips stepped out. Looking around, she spied Mardusk and said “Is this how you greet a Vice-Admiral, Lieutenant Commander?” Hearing the question, the Docking Bay Watch officer sent a text-only message to the Captain. =/\= Admiral just arrived, Shuttle bay. =/\=
Mardusk slowly made his way over to the woman and looked down at her. “Nope. But it’s how I greet my mom.” and he smiled a huge grin and wrapped his arms around her and lifted her off the deck.
Mardusk, CoS
