James was checking the ships records when he found something interesting. The crew have not been re-qualified for phasers for some time. He left his office and down to the halo deck and checked the programs. He input the command to run the program. As the doors opened he was in a sunny field, with a warm breeze blowing through his hair. A little ways away from the entrance was a table with a few phasers on it he went over to them and looked them over. He then straighten out his uniform and activate his com Badge

=A= attention crew this is Lt. James Hawkins the COS of this vessel. I have reviewed some logs in security and I found that a lot of us have not been recertified so when you have the time, please come down to HaloDeck 2 and I can get you re-certified. Thank you and have a good day. =A=

Now, all with James has to do is play the waiting game. He walked over to the table, picked up a phaser rifle and started to get some target practice.

Lt. James Hawkins (COS)

Steve heard this and wondered why the CoS didn’t just send out an email or something but it seemed important for him to do that. Afterall, if no one can shoot, then how can they save the ship from a boarding party or themselves on an away mission. pressing his com. =/\= Chief Engineer to Chief of Security. Understood. I will gather my engineers to report and have the ones on duty report to you after their shift. You will have to have multiple times and days just for my department to get through sir.=/\=

About 42 minutes pasted and Steve rolls up with 34 NE’s ready to qualify. “Chief Johnson and his off duty engineers reporting as ordered. Where do you want us?”

Lt. Steve Johnson, CE

“By the table with the hand helds and the phaser rifles” he said turning to them. He held up a type 2 phaser “Ok everyone this is a type 2 phaser. It has two settings. Lt Jonson what are the two settings” he asked to see if they we’re paying attention.

Ensign Wainwright had been given her duty roster the day before and it looked like she’d be doing a lot of shaddowing the CoS, however she didn’t think that would entail helping with phaser recert, she figured it might be one or two science officers or medics she certainly wans’t expecting this many engineers. It was going to be an interesting morning.

OOC: Wainwright, can you please still teach us this class because the CoS has been removed.

Steve smiles at her. “Madam. Will you be our instructor today?”

Lt. Steve Johnson, CE

“Madam?” She almost laughed “Nah it’s just Ensign.” She corrected she could never see herself as a madam a Mrs, even having a rank was a stretch to her.

“Then I will call you that.”

She looked around releasing she was now the only security personnel here. This was suddenly less of a skive than she thought “Yes Sir I guess I am.” She said picking up the phaser.

“Okay listen up, I don’t want any accidental burns, loss of limbs or anything I have to later explain at any disciplinary hearing.” She began, she held up the phaser “You’re a smart bunch of engineers so I hope I don’t need to explain again that this end” she said pointing at the muzzle of the phaser “is the dangerous end, we do not point this at ourselves, friends or senior officers. This end is strictly for pointing at the bad guys.” She paused.

They all picked up the phasers and did not point them at anyone other than downrange and noticed the end that she spoke of.

“This nicely contoured end, see how well it fits in the hand, this is where we hold the phaser.” She put the phaser down “Any questions so far, anything new and or unusual from anything you’ve done before?”

Still holding the phasers they all examined the handle portion and sat the phasers back down on the stands. Looking around and seeing that his crew was good to go Steve spoke up. “No ma’a…Ensign. We are good to go and that part. What’s next?” Steve asked

Lt. Steve Johnson CE

Abbie knew this was probably basic knowledge for them all, and they were smart, but common sense was often lacking in the smart so them not pointing phasers at anything other than down the range was a good start.

“Looking good, I think we can tick off ‘safely use a phaser’.” She said. “Right boring stuff over, time for the good bit.”

In the academy there had been endless discussions on what was an appropriate target to shoot at, it was always going to be an inflammatory subject. Which races it was okay to have as target, was it culturally appropriate, would someone have their feelings hurt. Abbie had decided it was far more ethical to put something truly terrifying as a target to save offending anyone.

“Computer, run Wainwright target practice one” she said as in each of the ranger lanes appeared cute fluffy unicorns. Each slightly different, but all with big eyes, rainbow manes, and pink fur. “The range is now got. Two inch grouping, in your own time. Fire” she called out to the engineers.
