=/\= Cargo Bay 1 – USS Chimera =/\=
Gustav and his small team of engineers were in their containment suits
while working in the cargo bay around the biological weapons.
He was overseeing the installation of a secure cargo container when
his comms badge went off.
+Rojac to Kroitzer.+ The Captain's voice said over the line.
+taps+ Kroitzer here.+
+Mr. Kroitzer, can you report to the Ready Room at you leisure? We
have something to discuss.+
+taps+ Aye sir I'll make my way there after I go through Decontamination.+
+Very well. Rojac out.+
Gustav made his way to hurriedly constructed decontamination booth
that had been set-up at the entrance of the cargo bay and started the
slow procedure of scrubbing down the containment suit he was wearing
before going through medical scanners to make sure that no trace of
bio matter was left on his clothing, after that was done he headed to
the bridge and the captains ready room.
He pressed the button and was called in.
[Ready Room - Deck One - USS Chimera NCC 96899-C]
"Mr. Kroitzer, good to see you." Rojac stood to greet his CEO as he
entered the room. "Have a seat."
"Aye sir" Gustav said having a rough idea what this meeting is about.
Rojac sat back in his chair and folded his arms across his chest.
"Tell me about your experiences aboard the Rapier and Magellan. I here
you made some valiant efforts."
"Just doing my duty sir," he responded.
"I don't think space walking in the middle of a battle with Romulan
Warbirds is on a CEO's job description." Rojac remarked wit his
trademark smirk.
"I was requested to make repairs to circuitry leading to the shield
emitters around the bridge portion of the saucer section as there was
a major drop in shield power in that area, this wasn't able to be
sorted from inside the ship so I had to leave the ship and effect
repairs from outside" he explained
Rojac chuckled and muttered, "above and beyond." He looked up,
smiling. "Well it was either one very brave, or one very stupid,
action Mr. Kroitzer. But it paid off. Well done. I'm submitting a
reward request to command for you actions aboard the Magellan. I just
wanted you to know."
Surprised at what was just said Gustav smiled and said "thank you sir"
"Lieutenant" Rojac began, "do you remember what I said last time you
sat in that chair?"
Thinking back Kroitzer remembered, "I think it was about me not
getting a promotion sir"
"It was." Rojac admitted. "And I challenged you to improve your
administrative and decision making skills. And though your decision to
make that spacewalk may be questionable at the outset, upon further
inspection it is revealed to have been a valiant and selfless act to
continue on the mission. Had you not made those repairs, the
Magellan's bridge could have been destroyed and easily overwhelmed by
the Romulan forces present." Rojac smiled, "Good work, Lieutenant."
"Thank you sir"
"There will be an awards ceremony the day after our arrival on UNITY,
Mr. Kroitzer. You need to be there in formal attire. Medals and
everything. 1800 hours." Rojac told the young officer. "And bring
young Ms. Hopeler with you."
"Aye sir… What time will the ceremony be at?" Gustav questioned.
"1800, Lieutenant." Rojac smiled. "Now get back to those biological weapons."
"Aye sir" Gustav said as he saluted the captain before leaving with a
big grin on his face.
