ON:

Sitting at the desk in the ready room Taliserra pondered the events that led to it. The disastrous fire fight with a fleet of the Terran empire that resulted in 55 dead crew and over 100 injured and the ship being damaged so severly that some of the admirals would sooner scrap it then repair it, only the personal insistance of Commodore Denevre the Wolff's original commanding officer had saved the ships company being spread across the fleet and its once beautiful hull taken apart to build and repair other ships.

It had been a long 6 months of waiting for her and Captain Emmerson's resignation had come as a big shock, she'd decided that a planetside assignment would be safer for her flock, she was going to miss M'Elise. As the months had passed she'd had no word from starfleet command about if she would be receiving a new Commanding officer or if she would be taking over herself.


She was snapped out of her thinking by the ready room chime. "Enter" She called out.

The door opened and in stepped two Ensigns, the first was the former captains (and for now hers) yeoman Miranda Fry, the second Debbie Larson one of the Wolffs engineers.

"Please tell me either of you have some good news." Taliserra said.

"I am afraid not Commander." Debbie replied. "The dock teams say we need at least another two weeks before we can fire her up and get back into space, I reckon we can be out in one but I think we should play it safe considering the damage we took."

Taliserra nodded. "I agree, the ship has been through a lot and I do not want us to have to come back for even more repairs because we were too eager to get back out."

"Understood." Debbie said.

Taliserra leant back in her chair. "Now Miranda what can I do for you?"

"Just a few things Commander. We had 20 more enlisted crew arrive this morning, they have all been processed and are settling in."

"That is a good start." Taliserra remarked, they still had a lot of crew positions to fill after half of the surviving crew had been reassigned to other ships after the ship was dry docked.

"I have heard that Lieutenants Edwards and Polaris are on their way back from leave."

"Good, at least that is a few of the old department heads coming back." Taliserra visibly relaxed a little, she was glad that she would not have a ship full of brand new people, new people to get to know, new people she didn't know she could trust yet.

"And I have Padds here for several officers that have applied for assignments here." Miranda stepped forward and placed a few Padds on the desk.

"I will have a look, anything else ladies?" Tali picked up the Padds.

"One last thing." Miranda said. "I know you haven't had lunch yet, you should go down to the lounge. Miss Haugen has freshly hand made pizza's on the menu, none of it replicated."

Tali smirked, Miranda always seemed to know when she had done something as simple as not eaten yet. "I will get get my lunch Miranda, do not worry, now dismissed, both of you."

Both ladied turned to leave, Miranda stopped just in the doorway. "Oh and it may be nothing but I heard the USS Falcon is on its way here." She turneed away again and the door closed behind her.

"The Falcon?" Tali said to herself. Why would a flagship be coming here?
