====== Oriana's quarters ====== Oriana packed. She wanted to look to the Living Dream hotel, which they docked at. Of course, she was not interested in the luxurious equipment and all ways in spending off time. But the sensors were offline and the hotel was the only possible reason. So, she took leave first time in her life. She laid down the last thing to her really small bag and zipped it. {He must come every moment.} she thought. And in that time someone rang at the door. "Come in," she said and Martin entered the room with his luggage. "Hello Sugar" Martin said to Oriana and entered her quarters. He was glad for the unexpected oportunity to use the possibilities the Hotel offered to the crew and for the 'general' leave his brother Shane granted to the crew. "So" he began pretending to be serious, "you keep your secrets to yourself Lieutenant, dont you? Maybe its time to tell me what is your plan for the next day or two" he said. "We are going to the Living Dream hotel, I reserved the quarters. I want to look around there. I am sure, the hotel is reason for the ship's problems. Will you help me with the … planning of holiday activities, please? I promise, I will go through all of them with you. We spent not much time together in the last time." "Ah" Martin smiled at Oriana, "thats a plan I like" he said. Taking Oriana by her hand he squeezed it gently: "I am all yours my Lady for the next two days. I am sure" he looked at Oriana and smiled, "we will find something enjoyable for both of us ..." Oriana and both of them left the room. ====== Way through the Chimera ====== The short way throught the ship led them to the air and to the docking port. A lot of other crew members were here too. They looked a bit surprised at Oriana and one or two times she heard whisper behind her back. The security officer held back them for a while .... asking for confirming their identity but after several minutes ... they were in the hotel. {They can't complain about absence the clients.} Oriana thought. All around were people. Humans mostly, but Oriana saw several Klingons, Ferengi, Bolians, Bajorans and some unidentificable species too. She saw not Vulcans, but they sought for this sort of society of course. Martin was suprised about the luxury of the Living dream hotel. It was obvious on the first look. Marble floors, pictures of all sizes and styles on the walls, rich carved benches on the hallways, flowers of all sizes and colors, crystal fountains filled with rainbow-color liquid ... all that created an atmosphere of luxury and relaxation. In the next moment a small alien came to them: "Welcome to the Living Dream hotel. My name is Bde Ly and you can turn at me with all your troubles. Follow me, I will show you your quarters." Oriana said nothing and get after the alien. She raised her eyebrow, when she saw all this luxury, but said nothing. Shortly a second alien joined the small group. It was a small green-ish skinned alien with small red ... almost glowing ... eyes. "My name is Od Pocinok and I am here to assist and help you in our hotel as well." Looking at Oriana and Martin he bowed slightly and asked: "Do I assume right that you are a couple and will be sharing one room?" Martin flashed over at Oriana. The two of them were in love for several months by now, but both of them lived in own quarters and till now it was never speech about sharing one quarters. Not that he would protest ... but Oriana wasnt an ordinary girl and he didnt wanted to spoil things by rushing too much. Showing no emotions Oriana noded: "Yes Mr. Od pocinok, we will share a room. I've reserved one already ... under then reservation nummer A-00212-B1." The alien was not taken by surprise. It almost looked like that he was used on the manners of logical thinking beeings like the Vulcan. He bowed again and said: "Of course Lieutenant Oriana, please follow me and we will show you the rooms. I hope they will safisfy you". ===== End of log ====== LT.
