This post will put us at Star Base Danvers. Feel free to post exploring the Star Base. There are restaurants, clubs, shops, you name it. There is also a planet or two nearby that is open to anyone who would like to visit them.
ON:
The hours it had taken to get to the Star Base had seemed to crawl. Cyndi had received word that the Star Base was on sensors. Cyndi walked from her ready room and took her seat, “How close are we?”
“We’ll be there in about twenty minutes,” communications announceced.
“We’re expected but we need to do this by the book, send them a message requesting permission to dock and let them know I have a fighter out and it will be arriving in later,” Cyndi ordered.
“Star Base Danvers reports we’re cleared to dock in docking ring one.” communications reported a few minutes later.
Twenty minutes later. “Helm take us out of warp and proceeded to docking ring one. Extend docking clamps and umbilical supports.
Cyndi watched as Kalina maneuvered the Amandora into the docking ring, a slight thud as the ship docked and the docking clamps and supports engaged.
“Commodore message from the Star Base, a skeleton crew will cover the ship so everyone can get some downtime.” communications relayed.
“Send back we say thank you,” Cyndi said, “Put me on ship wide speakers.”
“You’re on commodore,”
“All hands we’ve docked at Star Base Danvers, a skeleton crew from the Star Base will cover the ship while we’re off. Feel free to explore the Star Base and the two planets. Department heads make sure I get a list of supplies you need before departing the ship.”

Later, reports for supplies had been submitted and sent over to the Star Base, Cyndi had retreated to her quarters for a change on attire. She’d chosen a soft green dress that fell just above her knees, her usual ponytail and been replaced in a chic bun at the base of her neck. Packing her duffel including the little item for Paul’s eyes only. Headed for the bridge to check in on the officer manning her ship.
“Commodore I’m Commander Adams my officers will handle the ship while your off.”
“I’m a comm. Call away if you need me, take care of my ship.” Cyndi said, seeing the nod she headed off the ship and left final orders with the security officers who were at the air lock. Stepping onto the Star Base, Cyndi made her way to the control center of the Star Base. One of Paul’s officers started to acknowledge her but a slicing motion stopped him. Paul had his back to her, walking over to where her husband was and keeping her voice at a whisper. “Hey handsome, you busy?”
