Ethan stood waiting for a reply from the officer in front of him when he was startled by a voice coming from behind him.
"Well if it isn't we're both in trouble," said Zack in his usual broad-voweled Rigel colonies accent, pronouncing the last word like trooble. He approached the other Captain, smiling slightly, and extended a hand. "Zack Gillibrand, USS Independence. It's a pleasure."
Jumping slightly at the unexpected voice, Ethan grinned and turned slowly, making sure he was actually the one being spoken to. Taking a step forward, his own hand extended, Ethan replied, âEthan Trane, USS Braveheart. Pleasureâs mine.â
Willing to keep the conversation going, both to make new friends, as well as to get to know his fellow Captains, Ethan decided to open up about his recent promotion. âTo be honest, Iâve only been Captain of the Braveheart since earlier this morning. Iâm still trying to get used to the added weight of the fourth pip, let alone wrap my mind around the command of the ship.â
While he didnât want to seem overconfident, neither did he want to seem too nervous either. He felt okay inside, just a bit of confidence and not too many nerves, yet. He wasnât sure what to expect from either any of the captains, of the debriefing. He was sure of one thing: he would find out the answers to both very shortly.
