Mission:
Wedding Blues And Trouble
Location: Major Hurd's Office
Timeline: Current, 1800 Hours
After Hurd had handed Command back to the Commodore, he retreated to office. As he sat down in his chair, he let out a breath he had been figuratively holding dor the past couple of hours, both relived and sad that his Bridge shift was over. Running his hand through his hair he tapped a button on his desk and said, "Computer, begin recording".
"My Bridge Shift", Hurd said, "Was for the most part routine". A sly smile spreading across his face he continued, "And honestly the Fleetera didn't give me any trouble". "I think that was due primarily to what the Commodore said before she left, the look on my face, and the fact that i was actually nice for a change, despite said aforementioned look".
Clearing his throat he continued. "As of the end of my shift, all systems were operating at peak efficiency." "All and all", he chuckled, it was quiet, one could almost say dead quiet but that's completely ok with me". Hurd paused for a moment and then said something that even surprised him
" I am actually looking forward to the next time". He paused and said, "Computer, end recording and transmit a copy to the Commodore".
