Just Another Day
The Mhorish was always a relaxing place to be, it was calm, picturesque and for the most part usually trouble free, against this backdrop the INS Sharingan cruised along, it was a standard patrol mission en route from a layover in Revana back towards home up north. The ships CO Captain Yuki Tyler stepped onto the bridge pulling on her uniform jacket, it was a little warm outside after all.
"Anything interesting?" Yuki asked
"Not really just another day in paradise." her XO Commander Beckett said, Yuki glanced around the bridge it was a well knit crew she had serving under her.
"What's our current position?" Yuki asked
"Right here." Beckett said tapping the interactive table otherwise known as the "Tactics Table" that captain's on Achkaerinese vessels used "Steering well clear of the CNN exercises."
"Good." Yuki said "Keep a wide berth and let's do our job."
Then it happened an urgent message flashed up on the electronic tablet that Yuki had on the table it was an alert regarding a statement from the Royal East Moreland Press Office
"Oh boy." Beckett said
"That's one way of putting it." Yuki said she sighed the ring she wore on her right hand well within her eyeline, a reminder of her status as one of the small group of naval officers the Emperor had trained, it wasn't like this sort of thing hadn't been covered. First things first get the ship clear of the imminent threat and see where the chips fell, she took a couple of moments to think it through "Lt Nesbit set course north west let's get out of this things path if we can bring the speed right the way up."
"Yes ma'am." Nesbit said
"Commander Beckett sound condition blue through the ship." Yuki said
"Aye skipper." Beckett said, soon the light bars that ran through the vessel were all gently pulsing blue as the ship picked up speed "Worried about this boss?"
"Yep." Yuki said "An hour to get to a safe distance. Let's make it happen."
