       Josh chuckled. "Yes what about it lieutenant? Let me guess.
       You're trying to figure out why you've been promoted way a head
       of the regular time frame. That's simple, on board a starship
       the captain can choose his own promotions. It can be to either
       fill a certain position, or based on their work. So in
       combination of the two i selected you. The other flight officer
       was nominated but failed to meet the expectations, and to add in
       another point. We have this thing called field commissions. Take
       which ever way you recieved your new rank but the fact of the
       matter is this. You can keep it or reject it. Either way it
       won't be reflect badly on you. You've earned this."

       Cormoran blinked. Then he blinked again.
       "Yes sir." He said, as he reflected on how he thought life on a
       starship would be compared to how it was.  He open the box
       infront of his superiors, pulling out the gold pip.  He fastened
       it to his collar next to the first.  This was a  challenge.  The
       captain saw something in him and was throwing down a gauntlet
       for him to pick up.   Well challenge except it.
       "Thank you sir, I'll do my best, sir."  Cormoran said.  "With
       your permission, I'd like to take over the helm for awhile."

       remembered when he made Lieutenant and then Lieutenant
       Commander, it is a great feeling. He was about to congratulate

       The hail was perfectly timed as they had just finished getting
       the family ready to go to their child minder who would be
       joining them on the Valor as one of Maria's staff. =A=
       Acknowledged Admiral, would you like us to meet you in the
       transporter room =A= ? B'Ozian asked before he looked again at
       his wife and did his best attempt at a human smile before
       scooping up James in his arms.
       He was looking forward to being back on a starship bridge even
       if he had changed and took less risks now he was a husband and a
       father, the family had been good for him in many ways and
       however unlikely it was that his beautiful wife had fallen in
       love with him, it had happened and every time Maria told the
       kittens the bedtime story of The Beauty and the Beast he could
       not help seeing their faces as the characters.
       His one regret was that due to the Strength of Caitian genes it
       was unlikely they would ever have a human looking child.

       Maria just tilted her head to the side when he asked about the
       last time he'd told her he loved her and thought to herself.
       How about practically everytime you look at me. She then grinned
       to herself and was about to reply when the hail from Brown came
       through, which she also didn't respond to because B'Ozian
       responded instead, so rather than respond, she went into the
       other room and made they had what they needed, before picking up
       the toy bag along withSkye and Brandy and putting them into the
       pushchair in the corner of the room. It wasn't often that she
       used the pushchair, but it was the only thing other than her
       arms that she trusted to transport the babies, even with all the
       technology, she still didn't want to risk an error occurring.
       It wasn't that she was technophobic or anything like that, she
       was just over protective, but truth be told, she knew that the
       pushchair could just as easy, if not even easier, be broken.
       After quickly fastening in Skye and Brandy, which had became a
       skill over the past months, she then went back to the babies
       that were on the floor and picked up V'Alencia and then she took
       James from B'Ozian and put them in the pushchair, before putting
       the reins on T'Cait and V'Alencia, who had just began to walk.
       "You hold these two, and I'll push the chair." She stated
       quietly and then went back to the pushchair and gave the babies
       a couple of toys to play with while they sat there.
       Maria could see in the babies faces that they were getting
       annoyed at all the moving around and they weren't the only ones.
       Maria also couldn't wait to get on the ship. She was looking
       forward to being back up in space and not moving around with the
       babies. They all needed some stability and hopefully, they
       wouldn't be moving off the ship anytime soon.

       explain why she had felt ill and why it was happening now as the

       she fell back onto the cold bathroom floor thinking she had to
       be wrong and that this was simply some kind of bug that she had
       picked up. Shaking her head to clear her mind of those thoughts
       she tried to get back up but something kept her routed to the
       floor and hoped that Jacob would walk in about now.

       Jacob walked into his quarters after a long shift in
       Engineering. Thankfully the new recruit, Ensign Zyria came
       onboard the Valor in the nick of time. He definitely needed
       someone who was well trained in the department and could run
       Engineering while he was either on the Bridge, on Away Missions
       or spending family time with his wife Brooke and daughter Caia
       Mae. She was a lifesaver.
       Jake walled inti the bedroom seeing Caia Mae and picked her up.

       Brooke had sat there for a good few minutes until she was sure
       she wasn't going to be sick again and had managed to stand up
       when she heard her husbands voice. She was relieved that he was
       back but also glad in a way that he hadn't found her on the
       bathroom floor. After making sure she looked a little less pale
       walked into the bedroom and smiled at seeing her husband with
       their daughter. " Hey babe I'm glad your home saves me taking
       Caia Mae to the childminder" she said hoping she sounded like
       her normal self.
