"Keptin on ze bridge." I don't even notice the words falling out of my mouth, I am just so used to it. Captain Kirk takes his seat and just like usual the people on the bridge start shouting status updates about the Enterprise, and as usual I become overwhelmed, and I wait until to everyone's done with speaking their mind.
"Keptin I-" I am cut off.
"Captain, I just clearance into federation space." Spock says looking at me. He doesn't exactly care...
"Yeah, yeah that's nice Spock," Captain Kirk looks at me "What were you about to say Mr. Chekov?" He asks thankfully caring about what I say. I just sigh and turn back around.
"Newer mind sir." I reply waving him off. I automatically regret that. I look up at the windowscreen, I am terribly sick and tired of seeing black with tiny white spots all the time. Unfortunately when you are on a five year voyage in, you don't see much color besides the ones on your control panel, even that only flashes yellow, red, blue and the occasion green if the ship is nice but not much else, luckily for me I get to go back to San Francisco, for a small navigation class for a week while everyone else goes off to mars to get some supplies for the Starship's trip to Yoton, the newest federation space station. When I finally see earth in about 5 minutes I feel happy to see more green other then white, sliver, black, red and blue all time. I am home.
