       ==This takes place minutes after the conclusion of the meeting,
       with the Valor command team and Adm Brown.==
       William entered his quarters after the meeting with the Valor
       Command staff, needless to say it hadn't gone without a hitch.
       A Captain blatantly countermanding a direct order didn't sit
       well, in fact if he'd had the chance Shepard would have been
       relieved of command for such behaviour.  Hunter might have been
       a hard ass, but so soon after the Dominion war he knew Captains
       were in short supply.
       He placed the Padds he'd taken from the meeting and observed one
       of the senior officers profile.  Lieutenant Kira Wyman, she'd
       had a varied career and suffered a recent demotion.  But from
       what he could tell she was ambitious and eager to get back into
       a command role.  That eagerness formed into an idea for the
       Admiral, who promptly touched his comm badge.
       =/\=Admiral Hunter to Lieutenant Kira Wyman, please report to my
       quarters on the double!.=/\=

       Hunter's Cabin
       Kira walked up to the cabin and knocked on the door. She always
       preferred a knock to a bell, she waited until she was replied to
       and then entered the cabin. "Lieutenant Wyman. You wanted to see
       me admiral?" She asked, stopping before him and presenting
       herself in a professional manner.

       ---------------------------------------------------------
       When Hunter heard the knock at the door, he was confused as to
       why the chime wasn't used.  However he didn't pay it much
       thought, instead he walked to the portal and the doors parted to
       reveal a young red shirted Lieutenant.  She was stood in a
       professional pose and identified herself as Lieutenant Wyman.
       "I do indeed Lieutenant, please step inside."  He said standing
       to one side for her to enter, once she was in the Admiral held
       down the lock control and blocked off the outside world.
       "Please Lieutenant have a seat, anywhere you like!"  Bill said
       gesturing to his sofa and two armchairs.  He in turn walked to
       one of the arm chairs and sat himself down.  In front was a
       coffee table with the padds on it, Kira's was on the top, he
       lifted it and perused the contents again.
       Lowering the padd and locking his steely gaze onto the
       Lieutenant, he gave a twitch of a half smile.  "I see you've had
       something of a varied career Lieutenant and recently suffered a
       rank reduction, with the possibility of gaining back your
       seniority?"

       Hunter's Cabin
       When Hunter signalled for Kira to sit down, she sat down
       opposite the man. She looked down at the PADDS for a moment,
       acknowledging their presence and then raised her head as the
       admiral begun to speak of her recent events. "Yes my career has
       been fairly varied. I've spent time in, security, operations,
       command and now in JAG." She paused for a moment to let it sink
       in then continued. "And yes, I did recently take a rank
       reduction to take this position in JAG. The position was
       courtesy of rear admiral Kevin Duras, I believe." Kira observed
       the gaze and smiled back at the man, unchanged by the man who
       appeared to be quite intimidating.

       "So I see Lieutenant, not so sure why he would consider it a
       courtesy."  He placed the padd on the desk and sat back, then he
       observed the Lieutenant for a long moment.  "Well this is
       something you might not be aware of Miss Wyman, certain posts
       like that of the JAG are what as known as terminal posts."  He
       allowed a moment for that to sink in.  "What that means is
       basically if you got to the top of JAG, which is the at maximum
       the rank of Rear Admiral Upper Half."  He said gesturing to his
       own rank insignia.  "Well that is as far as you will go."  He
       shook his head.  "I see more than that in you, you're ambitious,
       smart."  Bill rose a hand hoping his point was made.  "You can
       go a lot further Lieutenant, I don't need to tell you that the
       fleet needs good officers.  Out there."  He said thumbing over
       his shoulder towards the windows, which had a view of stars.
       "Not riding a computer terminal for a career."
       Again allowing his words to sink in, the Admiral stood up and
       moved to the replicator.  "Would you like a drink Lieutenant?"
       He asked.

       Kira paused for a moment. A feeling of realisation came over
       her. 'A department change.' Kira thought, sitting back in the
       chair and smiling. "I thank you admiral, but it has been nice to
       take a step back for a while, I have a farm to run on top of my
       work. However," Kira sat forward in the chair and then
       continued. "I would be willing to take a new assignment."
       Kira nodded at the chance of getting a drink. "Synthetic scotch
       whiskey please, admiral." Kira finished, waiting for the admiral
       to return to the chairs.

       Bill was impressed by the Lieutenant, though it wasn't difficult
       to deduce what he was driving at.  He also liked the fact that
       she had the courage to talk about it, most wouldn't have spoken
       out loud about an assumption.  However Kira's assumption and
       words had paid off for her.  "Computer tea with milk and double
       sweet, also a synthetic scotch whiskey."  The replicator slot
       lit up and the shimmering of a mini transporter effect appeared.
       A few seconds later the two drinks were produced, Hunter
       collected them and put Kira's before her and then returned to
       his chair.  "It must be difficult to run a farm and have a
       career too and as for the new assignment, this is not a simple
       hand out Lieutenant."  He sat back again and took a sip of his
       drink.  "As a former and prospective command officer, you are in
       a unique position to notice if corners are being cut.  Or if
       information is simply not being passed on, which I fear might be
       the case on the Valor."  Placing the cup down on the coffee
       table, he eyed the Lieutenant closely.  "I am offering you the
       position of Chief Conn Officer, the ship is under my direct
       command now and this can happen in an instant.  But this is the
       condition Lieutenant, you are to report to me about any
       information not being passed on.  The Valor is going to be on a
       critical assignment and I need EVERY piece of information that
       is discovered, no matter how small it is."  He took a breath and
       added.  "This is your best chance at getting back into a line
       officers position, take it or leave Kira!"

       Kira took every word in before replying and it took her a moment
       to process everything that had been said. She paused for a
       minute, slightly confused. "You want me to fly the ship?" She
       paused for a moment, picking up the scotch and observing it."I
       think I'm going to need this more than I thought I would." Kira
       observed the liquid for a moment, moving it around in the cup,
       downed it and continued. She sat back in the chair and answered.
       "I'll take you up on the job. However, I have a couple of
       questions. What kind of corners do you think are being cut? And
       how am I meant to tell if the information isn't being passed on?
       The ship seems to be fine to me." Kira finished.

       "Yes Lieutenant I want you to fly the ship and where possible
       volunteer for duties at ops, you have the abilities and I would
       like to see them in use!"  Bill replied while she replied about
       needing her drink and downing it.  Then as expected she had
       questions, or perhaps reservations.  "Well to your first
       question, that is what I want you to find out Lieutenant and let
       me know."  A smile creased his face.  "As for your second
       query."  He stood up and moved to a cabinet by the replicator,
       opening one of the small top drawers he removed a small
       isolinear chip.  He then turned back to Kira and handed her the
       device, it looked old and past its prime.  "Looks old but it's
       brand new, all you do is slide that into your personal computer
       and it will take care of the rest.  It will mask any traces of
       your communiques with me and auto connect you when inserted."
       He returned to his chair and grabbed his drink again.  "We used
       them during the war and they have proved invaluable, as I hope
       you will be to me!"
