Adam stepped out of his office at 1538 hours and walked towards the turbolift. His destination, Deck 7. He was on his way to a surprise inspection and meet and greet with the Security staff. His goal was to surprise the department during a shift change, He wanted to see how the department head interacted with her department. He knew very little of his Chief of Security, only that she was recently promoted to the position, and the rank of Lt. She was also rumored to be young. An interesting mix to Adam.

After a couple minute, lonely ride in the turbolift, Adam arrived at Deck 7. He stepped forward walking intently towards the armory, where he assumed the shift changeover would occur. Not seeing anyone outside, he punched in his code, and stepped smartly into the armory, looking around.

At the back of the Armory Ensign Fraiser was doing inventory, something that he completed at the start and finish of every shift and something he was helping the on duty officers finish. He was nearly done when he heard the doors opening. “You’re early Parker,” he called out over his shoulder, presuming it was his relief since it was so close to shift change. He threw a quick glance over his shoulder -just to be sure- and tensed when he recognized the face. Although familiar it was definitely not Parker.

Carefully Flynn returned the rifle he was taking inventory of back to it’s place on the wall, quickly marked it off his list and turned to stand at attention. As per usual his expression was perfectly controlled, however, he couldn’t ease all the tension out of his shoulders, but he hoped it passed for youthful nervousness. Of course the man from the shuttle would turn out to be Flynn’s new XO. Hopefully this was just a passing visit and Flynn could get back to his job without delay.

The XO stood in near the door and scanned the room. His eyes briefly fell on Flynn before continuing on. It didn’t look like many other people noticed him. Considering his size and the red uniform, that seemed odd to Adam. He also didn’t see any senior level officers of the security department. This was not a good sign, thought Adam. He decided to approach the one person he did know, the young ensign he met on the shuttle.

“Greetings Ensign. I see you successfully checked in?”

“Not… entierly,” Flynn gave a wry grin, “I haven’t suffered my medical examination yet, but I bumped into one of the NE’s over there, and he was kind enough offer to let me walk his rounds with him, I figured it would be a good way to learn the ropes here quicker. Every ship has it’s own system you know? What brings you here? I’d have thought you’d be doing your own check in… sir,”

Adam smiled at the question, looking down at the Ensign. “This is me checking in, but tell me, How did your date go?”

Flynn opened his mouth to respond but at that moment the doors opened and a Klingong officer walked in…

Finishing her sweep of the check points, Sha headed for Security. Armoury check should be done by now, she mused to herself as she rounded the corner. Stepping thru the door, she pulled up short almost choking on her morning greeting at seeing the new XO. “Oh, pardon me…” She caught herself and sidestepped, with far more grace than seemed possible in her half Klingon form, and moved away from her office where she had been headed. She took a few more steps forward and waited to see if she had interrupted anything or was the one the XO was seeking. They hadn’t met officially, yet, but she was aware of the new crew member.

The big man turned to the new comer and look at her up and down. “You must be Lt. Triton, Adam Threwn” He said by way of his own introduction. “I am your new Executive officer. I thought I would stop by and see how shift change works in your department.” He explained to her in the most calm manner possible.

The new XO… of course! She nodded and smiled. “I am, Sir. A pleasure. Well, as you can see, they are slightly different here. We stagger the changes so we are never all in one place leaving sections of the ship unwatched. So while some you see here are going off duty, some are coming on. Others have been here a few hours and will be a few more.” She glanced at Flynn and nodded. She had assigned him inventory with another NE till he got his feet wet and earned her trust to roam on his own.

“Thank you, Flynn… if inventory is done, will you and NE Marks please see to it that the weapon lockers are secured on the rest of the deck.” She glanced back at the XO, “If you have no objections, Sir. We can also step into my office if you prefer.” She certainly wasn’t going to step on any toes, but Senior officers tended to set Junior officers on edge and she didn’t want that with any of her newest team members. They were already nervous enough with learning the ship and their duties.

Flynn glanced over at NE Marks and nodded, “Yes sir,” he said sharply, his eyes flickering between the superior officers. His meeting with the Counselor had placed him on edge and he’d recognised the dismissal as soon as the CoS spoke. But his discomfort was well hidden behind the smile he flicked at NE Marks, “You best lead the way,” he said guesturing to the door, “You’ll know where they are better than I do,” he chuckled as he followed NE Marks out.

She motioned to the door to invite him into her office across the hall from the Armoury. “Unless there is something else you wished to see?” If he was new to the ship, perhaps there was a small tour, of sorts, he would prefer to sitting in her office to talk.
