> John turned to face his friend the Master Chief and gave a
simple nod. The Commanders shoulders sagged as he began with a
sigh of relief, his attention then moved those who laid around
him. Medical teams began to arrive and do what they could.
Anderson didn't have to be an Engineer to know that there was
little point salvaging the Essex, not if the damage to the
bridge was any indication as to what the rest of the ship was
like.

Jasmine listened to the Commander and then turned to the
Engineer.
"Lieutenant, if you work of the view screen, I will work on
getting communications back online." She said then turning to
look back at the console.

Bending down and picking up his tool kit, Christian once again
battled the fatigue of being on duty for 26 hours straight and
walked slowly over to the viewscreen ans scanned it with his
tricorder, apart from several blown relays the damage appeared
mainly to be on the left side of the screen. "Commander there is
no way i can get the whole screen on but give me a minute to
reroute the power and i'll give you a partial view".
His father had always told him a good engineer was always a step
ahead of his superiors, so without waiting for a reply Christian
started rerouting the power couplings below the screen.
As soon as the quarter of the screen that could be powered up
came on Grix wished he had not bothered as the sight of a Jem
Hadaar cruiser filled the screen. "FRAK!! it never just rains
does it"? he asked in general as he stood looking ahead.

John observed the viewer, his shoulders sagged and he let out a
long breath of despair. "All for nothing." He said.
He waited for it, the moment where the Dominion ship would fire
and destroy what was left of the Essex.

[center]10 WEEKS LATER[/center]
The Jem'Hadar ship didn't fire upon the Essex, in fact no
Dominion ships fired another shot in the battle. The beings from
the Gamma Quadrant surrendered to the Federation and hostilities
for the most part ended.
The survivors of the Essex were rescued by their Brothers in
arms and later reunited with their old lives and loved ones.
However time would go on and the Federation/Starfleet have begun
to rebuild.
John Anderson received a promotion to Captain, for his efforts
during the battle of Cardassia and war time commitments in
general. He was also tipped for the command of a starship, his
first request was to have as many of the Essex survivors
assigned to his command.
All of which, with the exception of John Brown, Anderson had
promoted each one step in rank.
Lieutenant Christian Grix
Lieutenant Jnr Grade Jasmine Rey
&
Ensign Maura Stewart
Were all ordered to report to Starbase 378 and await the arrival
of their new ship. They were to be transported by the ECS
Bentley, a civilian freighter.

Earth - Starfleet Command
Starfleet Operations
John was walking along one of the many corridors, it was a big
day for him and his crew. He was going to receive his new orders
and assignment, he knew he was getting a ship but its class and
designation were unknown.
A few moments later the Captain entered the office of Admiral
Grace Hallam, the Chief of Starfleet Operations.
The greying Admiral turned to Anderson and smiled. "John, your
timing is impeccable." She said.
Anderson smiled back to Hallam, she was a wonderful lady and
always friendly. "Oh how's that Ma.am?" He asked.
She nodded to the male officer at her side, another Admiral.
"Admiral Jacobson and I were trying to decide on what ship you
was getting, as in the class. It's been decided that you will as
you know command the Churchill." She began maintaining her
smile. "The dilemma is that we have two ships built, a little
unusual I know, but with all the commotion with the war,
construction began without giving ships names."
John nodded, it was understandable that things didn't run
smoothly, orders and such being given in haste without much
thought. "So how can I help Ma'am?" He asked.
"Simple." She replied gesturing to Admiral Jacobson, who in turn
stepped forward holding up two pieces of fibre optic cable.
"You've heard of drawing the short straw, well we've improvised
and used cabling, one piece is smaller than the other. Pick one,
short straw we'll say the intrepid class and long one the
sovereign class."
John smiled and held his hand up to take one of the pieces, it
made sense that the short straw was for the smaller class of
vessel. Anderson pulled the straw and held it up in front of
Hallam.

Unknown Alpha Six Safe House-Earth
In the time since returning from the War John experienced the
greatest loss that would bestow anyone; a death but just not any
death but the death of his beloved Kristi she was assigned to a
Medical Ship and just before the attack on Cardassia her ship
was attacked and destroyed.
"I did all of this for the Federation all for the Federation and
what did they give me" Yelled John at the Flag of the United
Federation of Planets he stumbled across the room holding the
bottle he took a swig of it
John looked over seeing an man dressed in black facing him John
still unable to see due to the drinking looked at him then
taking a breath
"Who the Hell are you?" yelled out John towards him
"John, Johnny Boy do'nt worry who I am but I know alot about you
Master Chief you are a highly decorated Starfleet Officer they
wronged you. I know they have but I have a way out for you a way
to use your skills to get rid of the pain" finished the unknown
man
"Used my skills?; how will I be of use to you" finished Brown
still being unable to stand now holding onto the Wall still
unable to stand he slid down to the floor.
"Well if you do there is one test; Book passage on a freighter
heading to the Klingon Coloney on Omega IV once there you are to
find a man called K'Pak you are to kill him then you will be
send on other missions do this and the pain will leave you"
After the Unknown man spoke he demitrized in the transporter
effect leaving John Brown alone
John looked at his bottle seeing his empty crawled along the
floor picking himself up he headed back to the small bar taking
his stun baton he broke open the next storage locker taking
another bottle looking at it seeing the blue liquid "Romluan
Ale" John said with a smile as he opened it and drank

It'd been several hours since Anderson had left Starfleet HQ,
it'd taken two to walk from where he'd left the shuttlecraft he
borrowed. Stopping short of the large log cabin, a smile crossed
his face as he remembered the times Alpha Six had had there.
Usually they would visit after a strenuous mission for a cool
down, which would usually involve alcohol and in some cases an
intense workout. As a matter of fact the guys from Alpha Six had
scouted the location and built the cabin as a way of unwinding.
He took a deep breath and wiped the sweat from his brow, then
bent over to take a breath putting his hands on his knees. He
exhaled loudly and stood upright again, he'd decided to get out
of uniform and approach in civvies. He wore light blue jeans, a
dark vest, a lose hanging dark blue shirt and his favourite
brown hiking boots. The idea of not wearing a uniform served two
purposes, one was to avoid obvious detection as a Starfleet
officer to locals. The other was for his friend inside the
cabin, or at least hopefully in the cabin. A Starfleet uniform
was probably the last thing Brown would want to see.
Of course John knew of what had happened to the Master Chief,
more specifically to his beloved Wife Kristi. She was a
beautiful woman, with everything to live for and loved her
Husband deeply.
Stepping up close to the cabin porch, Anderson noticed the signs
of recent habitation. Dust silhouettes from items of outdoor
furniture being moved and so on. Moving to the door Anderson
entered and looked around, the place was in disarray and stunk
of booze and body odour. It was dark and gloomy inside, the
atmosphere produced the feeling of despair. A noise caught his
attention at the far side of the main room, someone was fumbling
about behind the small bar.
"Stand to Master Chief." Anderson said.

John heard the voice but in his stuper it took him a few moments
for his mind to understand who was calling out he looked though
the darkness to look at the figure he looked at him with dark
eyes.
"Stand To......you want me to Stand to; Yes Sir three Bags full
Sir" Yelled out John towards the man then looking at him "You
hold no power over me I am no longer in Starfleet so you do'nt
have authority over me" Brown stamered in his drunkness

A frown crossed Anderson's brow, that wasn't something he did
often, nor was he accustomed to be spoken to like Brown had just
done. "Oh is that right." Anderson replied charging through the
room and snatching the bottle from Browns hand, before tossing
it over his shoulder. The container shattered somewhere behind
the Captain and its blue liquid quickly spread along the
polished wooden floor. Next he grabbed the front of the Master
Chiefs shirt and brought the man to his feet.
"Actually you're are on compassionate leave and that means you
still obey orders." Growled Anderson coming nose to nose with
Brown. "I think we'll skip the court martial this time, we'll
deal with this the Alpha Six way!" On that John released his
right hand and pulled back his fist, before rapidly thrusting it
forward and into Browns gut. Not giving the drunken fool of a
man the chance to react and with better footing, Anderson
grabbed the Master Chief with both hands again and shoved him
towards the door and out into the daylight. Again with Brown's
drunkeness, it was easy for the Captain to knock his friend onto
his ass, which he did so by shoving him backwards and off the
porch. "WHEN I SAY STAND TO I FRAKKING MEAN IT MISTER!"

John layed there on the ground the sun hurt his eyes he just
looked up at the sky looking at the clouds he just looked at
John Anderson.
"I Remember giving you my letter of resignation before leaving"
finished as he just sat there looking at the man in front of him
"Alpha Six is gone were no longer needed" John stated as he
stood up he hadn't shaved for days he was a wreak he looked at
John wanting to fight but Brown resigned to himself he gave up.
"Why would I be part of an Organization who I sacrificed for
only to find out that they considered a Medical Ship Low Piroity
so needed no escort so that's why I booking passage to the Omega
Colony" John finished "My skills will be used alot" Brown
finished
