Mwezi sent a message to Valharra, asking the officer to meet him in the Gym for training.

Mwezi, CTO

Ensign Valharra received the message and headed to the gym to meet with Lt. Mwezi.

Mwezi was sitting on a bench, reading some reports on his U.R.I. when Valharra arrived. “Mornin’, Ensign. How’s it going?” he asked, standing and de-activating the holographic interface on his wrist device. He reached over to grab the training phaser and target, fiddling with the settings for a moment.

“If you could do your warm-up stretches before we begin so you don’t run a risk of injuring anything, that’d be helpful.” he added.

Mwezi, CTO

Ensign Valharra stood to the side and did his warm-up stretches as was commanded.

Mwezi handed the phaser to Valharra with a slight nod. “Alright, Valharra. I assume you know the drill. Shoot the target as many times in thirty seconds as you can.” He then threw the target into the air, where the inertial dampeners took over and made it hover in the air, then it began to move back and forth in a complex pattern, whizzing around.

Ensign Valharra took the phaser from Lt. Mwezi. “I do” he replied. After Lt. Mwezi threw the target and it locked into random hovering locations, he shot at it, hitting most of the time precisely at the middle of the target, some were a little to the top right of the target and 2 shots missed completely, which the Vulcan self scolded himself for.

Mwezi watched the officer as he completed the drill and nodded thoughtfully. “Your stance could do with some improvement, but overall you did a good job,” he said with a nod. “You need to relax somewhat, you’re standing too stiffly and that allows for less fluidity in your shots. I noticed the shots that you missed tended to be when the target changed directions suddenly. Standing more loosely can help with that.”

Mwezi, CTO

“Yes sir, I will work on that.” the ensign Vulcan security officer took the advice. As a Vulcan that was the one thing he had problems with emotionally was firing a weapon. He never liked weapons, so weapons training always made him tense, but usually he could shake it off enough to qualify for his job.

Mwezi was quiet for a moment, then gave Valharra a small smile. The stiffness in the Ensign’s stance wasn’t something new to the CTO. “We don’t need to use our phasers too often, but when we do need them, it’s important to be comfortable with the tools. Phasers aren’t always used to hurt people.”

Mwezi, CTO

“I know. I just don’t like ever having to pull them out, for any situation.” Ensign Valharra responded. “Even if we only have them on stun, but I know it’s part of the job, so I try to surpress my emotions like I’ve been trained as a Vulcan, but it’s hard when it comes to weapons.” he continued.
