At one stage, when in his ready room, Calvin would see a message flashing on his desk terminal. It was from Fleet HQ

From: Black Fleet Command
To: Captain Calvin Marius, CO USS Genesis
Subject: Orders
++++++
Captain,
You are hereby requested to return to Fleet 6 Headquarters at Black Rock immediately. You and your crew are overdue for shore leave, and you are welcomed to use the facilities here, as limited as they are for your shoreleave. You and your XO, Lt Commander Peterson are to attend the VIP lounge in your dress uniforms.

That is all.

Fleet Command Aide Commander John Kingston
for Fleet Commander Commodore Amber De Sadlier

Reaching Calvin’s office, Vanessa began to knock on the door while activating the door controls indicating her sense of extreme urgency. He had to know by now that the guilty pleasure show that Vanessa adored would be a proverbial hop, skip and jump from their location. Sure she had just returned from a month-long shore leave on Earth but this was the Desperate Housewives of Betazoid.

The knocking on the door was not unexpected however the speed at which it seemed to appear as his eyes finished scanning the mission report was perplexing. He had just gotten the word about shore leave so unless someone was hacking into his Starfleet communications account, this could not be about the impending shore leave. Looking up at the door he let his mind roam to who was beating on his door as if the Borg were attacking.

“Come,” Calvin called out sharply before lifting his eyes to see who was going to grace the room with their presence.

“Captian. I have a situation,” Vanessa said in a serious tone. Laying the PaDD on the table she slid it over to him as if it were a drink at an old-timey saloon bar. “Okay so I know I just had leave but UDHB is coming to Black Rock. I need a week off,” she stated flatly.

Raising a hand, Calvin cut off Vanessa slowing her down. “What the hell is UDHB?”

“What is UDHB,” she looked at him as if he had just stood up swinging the enemy flag and announced his allegiance to them. “Unreal Desperate Housewives of Betazoid,” she translated for them. “You know for a group that is telepathic and all about openness and sharing, that show shows they are the pots calling the kettles black. They had so many secrets last season I had to sit with a journal to figure out who was shipping with who.” Letting out a small sigh, Vanessa shook her head as if somehow the chick serial promoted by OMAP should have been on Calvin’s radar.

Making a rolling motion with his hand, Calvin gestured for her to speed this up. “Please get to the point so this can stop.”

“I need a week off because the cast of UDHB is coming to Black Rock and one lucky fan is going to get a chance to star in an episode of UDHB and wanna know who that lucky fan is going to be,” she let her voice trail off.

“This girl,” Vanessa hooked her thumbs at her chest. “I just need you to sign right here,” she tapped the line with her fingernail, “so I can make sure I am available and we don’t have to work around their shooting schedule.”

Grabbing the PaDD, Calvin looked back up at her and handed the PaDD back. “Denied but there is a silver lining. We are being sent to Black Rock for a mission but if you get all your work done you can go visit the HBHT or whatever the hell it is you just said.”

“What work? My job comes after someone is sucked into a different dimension, gets their body switched due to a random ion storm or comes back from shore leave after running into their baby mama they haven’t seen since the time they went bar hopping during their academy days. I have counseled everyone after the Halloween holodeck debacle. Ensign Shalpert took a bit of deconditioning walking by that row of ficus trees in the mess hall but once I convinced him dinner was on the other side and not zombies wanting to make him dinner my calendar is wide open. Besides I thought for sure my time going with you on away missions after the Lesscoo incident was over.”

Vanessa Slade CNS

“In a perfect world you would be right,” Calvin spoke dryly, “but never second guess commands decision to think we need to talk someone to death as a way of defeating an enemy and talking someone to death is your forte Lt. Besides HR sent me a communique about Occupational Safety and Health. If you are really that open by all means I can put you in charge of that fun professional in-service?”

Calvin Marius CO

“Talking someone to death,” she let out a chuckle. “We all have our superpowers and mine doesn’t require the combat skills of a Marine but still gets the job done by someone breaking from subtle interrogation or the fact they keel over due to boredom.” She appreciated his sense of humor and was getting rather fond of it. Calvin tended to be very laconic in his conversation so light verbal banter spoke volumes about how much he was teasing her right now.

Glancing at the console beeping, Vanessa knew this impromptu meeting was over however like a true woman, she was not going to just let this topic drop. “We can continue this discussion tonight at dinner. Mess Hall seven pm,” she stated tapping his desk with her fingertips before walking out.

A Comm Call came in from Black Rock to Captain Maruis, it was from Fleet Command Aide Commander John Kingston and was marked with ‘Highest Priority’.

Tapping his console, Calvin accepted the call. =/=Commander Kingson what do I owe the pleasure=/= The greeting was a simple formality. Just like your mother or a spouse, Command never called unless there was a problem out of their control..
