[Sage Targus]

Small part of this is a JP between Sage and Draco.

Starfighter Bay
USS Braveheart
1800Hrs

Sage had spent most her afternoon and early evening looking over the fighters under her charge. As she completed the last of the inspections the PADD in her inner pocket beeped. She unzipped her flight suit just enough to retrieve it. It had one short message from her father.

^^Flightsuits and Fighters preped for Kalvoord Starburst. Dragon On point.^^

Sage grinned as she placed the PADD back in her innner pocket and flagged down the Chief of the deck. the young Senior chief ran over and snapped to.

"Senior Chief Rogers, Ma'am. What can I do to assist you?"
" At ease Chief." Rogers quickly took a more laxed appearance. "I need to have my fighter, Lt. Whillis and Cmdr Drac's Fighter prepped for flight manuvers and mooved to the head of the bay. you have thirty minutes. Best get cracking. Dismissed"

"Aye Ma'am." replied Rogers as he snapped to quickly and turned to get to work. with in seconds the bay was a flurry of work as the fighter were being moved into place and set up to be launched. Sage turned and made her way to the door with a smirl on her face. It had been along time sence she had been on a ship and she at that point realized how much she missed it.

She quickly made her way back top her quarters. As she walked through the door she opened the tube that she had taken with er to the fighter bay. from the tub she drew out a beautifl ceramontial katana. the sword was about three and a quarter meters in lentgh from tip to the butt of the hilt. the hilt itself was a dark cherry red, with a glossed laquer finish. the blade was steel, hand forged, with an inlaid gold dragon. The sheath was the same dark cherry red that the hilt of the sword was. with a  dragon in gold lament that matched the one on the blade. She walked over to her deshk and held the sheathed sword up with both hands as to offer it to someone. She bowed slightly and placed the sword on it stand.
With a snap in her turn she headed to her bedroom and changed into a clean flight suit and returned to her main room. Once again she walked to the desk and bowed slightly as she removed the katana from its stand. takeing it in her left hand she exited her quarters and headed to the Starbase main gallery.


Just outside the Main Gallery
1845Hrs

Sage Entered the gallery and scanned the room for her father.  She suspected he would be with Admiral Malloway. As her eyes crossed the head of the room she saw him. He had just released thehand of a young commander, and knowing her father as well as she, she knew he was acting the part of a gentleman. She crosseed the room and snapped to attention directly behind her father. Before she could say a thing, he spoke.

" Good of you to join us Commander. Carring the katana I hear. You should know by now young lady I might be getting older but I still know your scent and how you carry yourself."
" Aye Sir. If I may speak frankly"  She replied as she stood waiting to be released.
" Atease Sage it is a party. and for the evening It isnt Admiral."
Sage relaxed and moved around her father to mingle with the rest of the officers he was speaking with. She politely nodded to the senior officers int he group and then started to speak. " Orders were recieved and craft are being preped as we speak. "
