The Howard's of Star Base 12

Part Three of Shore-Leave

Part Three of Shore-leave

Captain James T. Kirk is the last one to have his shore-leave on Star Base 12 after all of his officers have had their shore.

Captain James T. Kirk walls up to Mr. Spock and he tells him "Mr. Spock. You are the commander of The USS Enterprise until I return."

"I understand Sir. I promise to protect The Enterprise. I will keep you updated on everything Sir." Mr. Spock tells Capt. Kirk.

"Mr. Spock. I know that Bones and you have your differences, but Bones is intelligent and if you need help don't be afraid to ask." Jim Kirk tells him.

"I will ask Dr. McCoy for help if I need it Sir." Mr. Spock tells Jim Kirk.

"I have needed shore-leave for a while. I am worn out and I need some rest and relaxation." Jim Kirk tells him.

"Enjoy your shore-leave Sir." Mr. Spock tells Jim Kirk.

Capt. Kirk is beamed down at the beam down point, and he is met by Lord Andrew Charles and Lady Karissa at Beltane Manor.

Lord Andrew Charles with Lady Karissa walk up to Jim Kirk and Lord Andrew Charles says to him "Welcome to Star Base 12 and Beltane Manor, Captain Kirk."

"Thank you, Lord Howard and thank you for the hospitality in advance." Jim Kirk tells him.

"It is a pleasure isn't it Lady Karissa." Lord Andrew Charles asks Lady Karissa.

"Indeed, Lord Andrew Charles. Welcome to Beltane Manor. I am sorry that Lord Richard William Carey, the Duke of this territory, couldn't be here today to greet you." Lady Karissa tells Jim Kirk.

"Lord Carey had some business to take care today for his territory." Lady Karissa explains.

"I am glad that you have come to Star Base 12 to take your shore-leave. You will be our guest at Beltane Manor. I hope you like children, Capt. Kirk because we have two daughters and a son." Lady Karissa explains.

"I had a son myself, David." Jim Kirk states, " I lost him when those damn Klingons murdered him." Jim Kirk tells Lady Karissa.

"What a tragic Sir. I am sorry for your loss. "Lady Karissa tells him "I lost my family in Post World War III.'

"I lost my wife, Mariana as well and she was expecting our child." Jim Kirk states.

"I am so sorry to hear that you lost your wife as well." Lady Karissa tells him.

"You will find Beltane Manor to be most pleasant. We have a fine library, a music room, fine gardens and some fine cooks." Lady Karissa states.

"Lord Howard has an office at Beltane Manor where he governs Norfolk Territory from and I usually spend most of my time taking care of our children, but I am also Marchioness of Pembroke Territory." Lady Karissa states.

"I am sure that Lord Andrew Charles's two brothers will be able to give you a tour of Norfolk Territory and show you Norfolk Estate." Lady Karissa states.

"I am afraid Lord Andrew Charles's father is Duke of York Territory." Lady Karissa tells him.

"If you had time. I would have been most happy to take you on a tour of Pembroke Territory." Lady Karissa states." Maybe next time The Enterprise has shore-leave we can arrange a tour of Pembroke Territory for your officers and you."

"I look forward to touring Pembroke Territory." Jim Kirk tells Lady Karissa.

"I have to admit that Pembroke is my favorite territory next to Bedford Territory." Lady Karissa tells Jim Kirk.
