Murdoch Thirmon awoke early as the communication from Mars reached his ears on the Amandora.

It was Colonel Ford his old wing commander and CO.

[ Hey Midnight this is my final try to keep you. The new drone program of your fathers is set to take off. Don't you want to be a part of its success?]

" Sir I just want to be a pilot. The Amandora accepted me as a pilot."

[ Okay I tried. Stand at attention. Chief Warrant Officer Murdoch Thirmon having passed your officer advancement courses you are hear by promotes to the rank of Lieutenant second grade. With all the right and duties there of. Congratulations Lieutenant Thirmon well done..]

" Thank you Colonel." Midnight replied to the screen in his room.

The screen faded.


"Congratulations," Alesha said, "You've earned it."

" Lieutenant I didnt know you were behind me. Now that I am a butter bar Lieutenant what's my chances of getting a date with you? "

"I heard you talking to someone and I stopped to see who it was," Alesha said "As for a date all you have to do is ask."

" Wait I can't ask you out on a date Lieutenant. I just turned down his proposition to run the drone program. I am 100% Amandora now. That makes you my CO and CAG." Thirman realizes

"It does but there is no reason we can't date as long as on duty we keep it professional," Alesha said.

That peaked Murdoch's attention. He then stood and turned around. He then lifted her left hand and kissed it.

" You are one fine woman Alesha. FINE."

"Why don't you come to my quarters later and I'll make dinner," Alesha offered.

" Sweet...I am there. But first I need to change uniforms...I seem to be out of mine."

"I'll be in street clothes," Alesha said "Give me a couple of hours."

" I'll be the new butter bar showing off my new rank. I cant wait for this Alesha..." Murdoch replied .

"Neither can I," Alesha said smiling "I'll see you in a couple of hours,"
