Starbase Thrinacia
Airlock
2035 hrs
Lieutenant James Spruance had had a very busy day. This morning he had been notified that he was receiving a transfer to the USS Majesty from his present post. His new position would be that of Executive Officer. Excited that he was moving up, James had packed his bags and left his ship the USS Alliance. He had boarded a shuttle at Earth Spacedock for Starbase Thrinicia. En route to the station he had received Admiral Malloway's invitation to the ceremony and dinner. He had arrived shortly before the beginning of the event and had had enough time to get his belongings aboard the Majesty before it started.
When the Cardassians attacked the Starbase, James had been as stunned as everyone else but before he could report to the Majesty it had already left. Making himself useful James took up a phaser and helped defend the station from Cardassian boarding parties. He had watched as Lt. Commander Jackson tricked a boarding party into the airlock in order to send them into the vacuum. It had worked marvelously but before he could go up to his new CO, James witnessed Jackson's encounter with Captain Woodcroft who had been tending to Cadet Locker.
Looking around at the people who were gathered at the airlock, James noticed his cousin Cadet William Halsey and nodded to him saying, "Good evening cousin." As he was receiving an unspoken acknowledgement from Cadet Halsey, James noticed that Jackson was now following Captain Woodcroft somewhere. James quickly followed his new CO and introduced himself, saluting as he said, "Lieutenant Commander Jackson? My name is Lieutenant James Spruance and I have been assigned to be your new XO. I'm not sure if you knew I was coming but here I am. I arrived in time for the ceremony and I had my belongings put on board the ship but I was unable to get to the Majesty before she left to fight our attackers. I made myself available to Security to help against boarding parties." James quietly waited for Jackson to respond.
