<<OOC ... just a small example that logs doesnt have to be very long or complicated and that a certain level of fun (even if not all have to agree with my idea of fun of course) is perfect acceptable in your logs.>> ===== Dexter's quarters, 30 minutes fefore his shift begin, USS Chimera ===== ~I believe i can fly ... I believe I can touch the sky~ sounded from the open door's of the bath room in a slight false tone of Ens. Dexter. Dexter's shift was about to begin in 30 Minutes and he was making himself ready to 'face the day'. The fact that the ship was under red alert and that a handfull of shuttles was attacking the Chimera bothered him little. Well ... lets be honest ... red alerts, skirmishes with alien/unknown/hostile vessels, intruder alert was a common part of an Starfleet officer's life and even more on oard of a first line SSF starship. Wrapped in a big tovel with an Andorian honey hedgehog on in he emerged form the bathroom huming an another song and went over to his bedroom for a fresh uniform. A little meal consisting off boiled eggs, ham and sausage <<OOC ... some see your own breakfast here? I KNOW some do! ::grins:: >> was prepared on the table and waited for its destiny. In this case ... the destiny was ... Dexter's stomach. ~Who wants .... to live forewe....~ sounded in a pitch high voice from the bedroom when the COMM pannel near the entrance door went alive: "Operations to Ensign Dexter" ~eeeeer!~ still came the sound from the bedroom. Only then Dexter realised that someone was calling him. His head poped out of the bedroom's door and he said: "Dexter here" "Ensign, are you all right?" sounded from the COMM pannel. Dexter's ears went a bit red: "Yes, I am fine." "What was that for an ear-ripping sound there Ensign?" the someone in Operations insisted to fond out more. {Damn ...} Dexter thought {Its sure Sheryl asking}. "I've heard nothing" he lied. "Never mind then. Ensign, we have an new assigment for you. You are about to report in the fighter shuttle bay in five minutes" the female voice from the COMM announced. "Sorry?" Dexter was caught off guard, "fighter bay?" he asked perplexed. "Afirmative Ensign, Commander Guzman ordered to prepare the AR-02 fighters for launching. Since we have no dedicated fighter pilots on board, there have been choosen six crew with the best qualification and experience to pilot the fighters. You Ensign are among those six" Dexter was quite in a shock. {I should pilot an fighter runabout?} he asked himslef in disbelief. "Are you sure there is no mistake here? My qualification is a three months duty on an Danube class runabout on the Month station three. Three years ago." He protested. "Two years and 10 months exactly and no, you are among the six with the best suitable qualification." Said the female Ops officer with only the slightest tone of irony in her voice. "You have five minutes Ensign". "But ..." he protested, "I am half naked and cant make it to the shuttle bay in only 5 minutes ..." "Then better dress Ensign" Dexter heard a VERY slight amused tone in her voice, "cause I will transport you to the fighter bay shuttle in four minutes." And she slosed the channel. "Geeeez" Dexter sighed in disbelief. "I wonder if Guzman knows who's goona to pilot his precious fighters ..." he said and rushed back to the bedroom to dress. Appearing in the shuttle bay only in pants and a thirt wasnt something he would like to happen. ===== Some laters, Fighters shuttle bay, AR-02 fighter "Honey" ===== Dexter was sitting in the pilot's seat still not ready to believe that this all was real. He and five others "pilots" were fastly briefed about the current situation and about their task .. to disable the four Marduk runabouts. Next to him ... in the co-pilot seat was a young Ensign with a teal collor on his uniform. Dexter learned that the Ensign was from the sickbay and his qualification was co-piloting a class 9 shuttle for a three months period during his final class on the academy. {Just great!} he thought while he was waiting for the Ops to give them green light. ====== End of log ===== Ens.
