All roads lead to Lucky Strike...
Feb 23^rd, 2006, 6:45pm

<Serenity Base - Promenade>

Jackie watched some of the matches, and found this day slightly more boring than the last two had been. if the last two were like a high speed fighter flight, today was just... boring... She stiffled a yawn as she walked along the promenade, looking at some shops but not really seeing anything, the Caitian was mor e lost in thought than she was looking for something.

The events of last night were still fresh in her mind. The Caitian would give anything to relive yesterday alone, no matter how painful some moments seemed, she would not trade the day for anything.

Jackie smirked lightly as she strode along the promenade; a base definitely felt different to a ship; ship...Jackie looked around, suddenly missing the Horizon and her crew. She wondered how would they welcome her back, how would she re-adjust to things.

And how would she adjust to her new Task Force command? at the end of this tournament she would have to go back to 'real life' - and her life had taken a very sudden twist after she met Taylor. Jackie wondered how she would adjust to all of the new changes and how she would use the newly gained experiences here at the tournament to help her with the Horizon and Task Force 58.

She's made new friends, a few enemies, apparently too...but Jacakie wasn't worried about that. She was more worried abotu leaving some of the friends behind, not certain when she would see them again. Such was StarFleet life, she hadn't seen Mark in years now, although they talked on subspace a few times a month or a week depending on things, subspace just wasn't the same. Jackie grinned, wondering what Mark would say when he would've found out she competed in the tournament.

Jackie shook her head, realising she was standing in the middle of the promenade looking out at nothing in particular as she let her mind wander off.. Jackie mrred under her berath as she headed off to the Lucky Strike bar to see if she could find something to eat.

Alex had just sat down to lunch in the lucky strike when someone he was hoping to see slowly walked inside.He waved to her as soon as her gaze fell upon his location.He owed her a meal hopefully she would join him.It had been a rough night he pulled another double shift and was hungry for some food and some good company.

Jackie approached the human.

"Small base..Lieutenant...." she remarked. "funny how we constantly keep running into eachother this way, or did sickbay send you to keep tabs on me to make sure I really am okay?" she asked. "or did you take that initiative yourself?" she said, her tone letting him know she wasn't serious.

Jackie chuckled, deciding to dimiss his innuendo as a slip. there wasn't any harm in something like that once in a while, even if she was a Flag Officer now. It didn't mean she had to be all stiff and unfriendly and by the book all the time.

"who says I don't enjoy loosing?" jackie asked. "I may be out of the tournament, but I'm hardly down about it" she said. 'And dont' worry about making a foll of yourself" Jackie smiled. " I am sure I've made one of myself on several occasions yesterday alone" she noted. "now.. what's for lunch?" she asked

"Speaking of the tournament you did very well .I bet next year you place in the top 16."Your match with what was his name Tepez?I can never remember klingon names...well anyway it was incredible."

Jackie looke dover the manu.

"Part of the reason why I didn't do, TOO well was because I wasn't prepared for the event, and I didn't have a proper blade." she said "considering under which circumstances I've arrived here." she said, breifly telling him what she meant.

"So you see, I'm lucky to have won three matches" she smiled. "did not expect a deathmatch, but that also proven a few things to me" she added. "Ah yes.. Ta'pez. I'm not sure what happened there, he broke bmy blade, something just went into overdrive in my mind, I'm not sure how exactly I won that match, but...that was quite an experience" she noted. "I've not had a chance to review the match myself, I bet I looked like a derranged furball running around the arena with a betleH"

Reply #9 - Feb 23^rd, 2006, 7:31pm Alex smiled as he remember the way she looked.It was a thrill to see someone of the admiral stature take down a klingon the size of Ta'pez "You looked determined...and dangerous.I knew you would win after he broke your weapon....the look on your face was one of determination i have never seen before."

"I just kinda lost it there for a little bit. Let the feral in me take over" she paused. "although that was probably more evident in the deathmatch, considering the stakes were considerably... higher"

Alex shook his head.He just kept looking at the menu.
"Wish i could say i was actually watching you during that match....
i had my eye on who you were fighting."

Alex paused not wanting to say he was watching to make sure he didnt kill her.
Had his phaser ready to shoot him if he tried to make a killing blow.He tried to change the subject.

"So whats next for you after the tournament?Back to your ship?"

Jackie raised an eyebrow at that. Wondering why he was watching her opponent instead.

"Let me guess, half the crowd bet against me?" she smirked, letting him know she was kidding.

She took in a breath.

"Next.. yeah probably back to the Horizon and my Task Force. I've yet to meet the staff there, was going to do that when we reached StarBase Bravo, but Mr Taylor had other plans instore for me..." she smiled lightly at that.

"No i'd say only two thirds of the klingons only bet against you...the rest hoped you'd kick his angry honor filled rear."
Alex was relieved she didnt press his actions at the death match.He motioned for the waitress to come over and folded his menu."Yeah i've never envied the admirality and there job."It seems a thankless position."
