Mr. Scott had programmed the Spacedoors to wait until the USS Ronin got halfway through, and then... Captain Nicholaitan: "Communicator! Raise Spacedock Quartermaster office and get these doors open!" Looking desperately at the comm. "Are there any vessels nearby to take up the pursuit?" Comm. officer: "Miranda class USS Ross NCC-56371, Lt. Commander Benjamin Coe, I have communications officer John Gomperts on an open channel for you, Sir." Captain Nicolaitan: "Ross, I order you to pursue, USS Constitution NCC-1700. M'K'N'Z'Y Calhoun and his crazy 'Holy Rollers' have made off with PAX Universal property!" Petty officer John Gomperts: "Up your warp core!" Authors note: To my Dad, John Gomperts and family of Captain Benjamin Coe and the crew of USS Ross DD563 of WWII and DDG 71 of today, thank you all for your sacrifices to defend the ideals of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. -------------------------------------------------- Spacedock by NPIGG1@home USS Ronin by Rick "Hobbes" Snyder at SciFi3D.com Omni light by Les Bentley in free stuff!
