Mission: Mission 23: Foundations of Stone
Location: Various Locations - USS Roanoke
Timeline: 1300Hrs - January 28th, 2391

Commander Torilla Yamaguchi was in a dark mood, black depression threatened to ensnare her in its dark tenticles. She stepped out of the turbolift and tapped the doorchime to Zara's ready room.

She needed time off and the look on her face said as much.

"In," Zara called out as she read through the mission reports on the Breen's attack upon Roanoke.

the door opened and in walked the thunderstorm that was Torilla Yamaguchi. "You called for me?" Torilla gently ran her hand over her face, she knew she still looked like crap from earlier but honestly, she no longer cared.

"I did," Zara began as she tucked her PADDs away and stood up and walked over to Torilla. She gave the taller woman a hug. "I'm sending you to your husband for a while."

Yamaguchi wanted to break down as she looked down at Zara. "Okay.." she whimpered softly.

"Hey..." Zara tried to soothe as she hugged the woman. "Your babies are fine. Furban's keeping Phoenix under close watch. So they'll be fine."

"It doesn't help..." Torilla responded. "There is what I know... and what I feel... I know my children are alright...." as she gently placed a hand over her now flat abdomen. "I don't know... what to.. do." Torilla's emotional control was clearly disintegrating.

Zara knew exactly what Torilla needed. Thus she led Torilla over to the couch, and then went about making her friend a stiff Andorian brandy and lit a cigar.

When the Trill rejoined her friend, she handed Torilla the sifter first. Then the cigar.

"You can't fix it. All you can do is roll with it," Zara spoke sympathetically.

Yamaguchi accepted the drink as she looked at it, she then shrugged. "Alright.." and with that she sipped the drink before she looked at the cigar before she watched Zara light the end of it, then she took a drag. "Mmm..." she blinked. "Oh..."

"This don't take the pain away. Only stalls," Zara cautioned Torilla. "But would you be OK if I nagged Jake to come get you and you can go on a getaway together for as long as you need."

"Sure.." and with that Torilla poured her drink back in one go before she took another drag of the cigar. "Mmm..." as she let her head loll back, she looked up at the ceiling as she exhaled out a lungful. "Oh look... mushroom cloud.."

Zara kissed Torilla on the forehead as any concerned friend might, then she went over to her desk and opened the subspace link to Jake's ship.

"Admiral? I need a private talk with you real quickly, if you don't mind Sir," Zara spoke as soon as she was looking at the bridge of his ship.

Jake Yamaguchi meanwhile was standing near the MSD at the back of his bridge, conferring with Commander Kolar, a Klingon male about a few things when the call came in. Jake nodded. "Of course." he looked at Kolar. "The bridge is yours... Route the call into my ready room and make it as private and secure please"

Lieutenant Tiris Mav'a, a rather attractive Bolian female nodded. "Willdo Jake."

Jake went into his ready room, he tapped the wall monitor, the image of a clearly concerned Trill woman who wore the uniform in an odd way appeared on the screen. He knew instantly that something was wrong. "Zara... whats up?" he inquired.

"I want to beam a lady into your quarters, if you don't mind," Zara spoke with a smile. Mostly to try and cheer Torilla up. "You'll love her."

Jake raised an eyebrow. "A Lady into my quarters.." he inquired. "I assume she's known to me..." he inquired, a playful smile appearing on his face.

"Very, yes... Seems lonely and lost," Zara pointed out worriedly.

Jake regarded Zara. "Alright... send her over...." he replied quietly. "I'll take her off your hands....besides... I've not seen my wife in far too long.."

"Bed her well, My Friend," Zara encouraged, closed the link, and joined Torilla over at the couch. "Let me know when you're ready, and I'll walk you to the transporter room."

Torilla smiled. "Still... I have to admit... ... This ship is... insane.." she commented as she breathed out a cloud of noxious fumes. "Oh look... its pink.."

"You like being here though," Zara confirmed. "You got a lot of friends here anyway."

"I do?" Torilla commented with a goofy smile before taking a drag of her cigar as she finished the cigar. "Mmmm..." as she regarded Zara. "I want to fuck you.." she said bluntly. "you....wait... whats going on?" Torilla breathed out a cloud of smoke. "Look.... ain't it pretty..." she paused. "wait... is my head expanding...?"

"You wanna finish this on the way to meet Jake?" Zara prodded gently.

"Sure... lets go see Jaake.... I wanna fuck my husband senseless..." the larger woman agreed as she felt herself being hauled to her feet. "That was... so cool..."

Torilla blinked slowly. "Mmm... which way... I can't remember anything.." as she felt someone or something tug her out the door and into the turbolift. "I feel like I'm flying.... look Vlada I'm flying...!"

"You are. Just not literally," Zara laughed. "I'll have Elizabeth get a bag packed and send it over to you and Jake later. I just want you to relax for the moment."

"Okay....sounds good." Torilla smiled. "Where are we going..?"

"To your husband," Zara answered with a smile. "I told him to bed you."

"Oooohh goodie.... I can't wait..." Torilla responded with a smile as the door opened. "Which...where we going again?"

"To see your husband," Zara answered with a small smirk.

"Ahh.." and with that the two women walked into the transporter room as Torilla went over to the padd. The operator looked at Zara Tane. "Where's she headin' sir?" she asked.

"Ashes of Winter," Zara confirmed and waved to Torilla. "Have fun, My Friend."

The Ensign looked at Zara. "Anywhere specific on the Ashes of Winter or just one of her transporter rooms.?" she looked at the Exec. "I doubt she'll make it too far."

"CO's bedroom," Zara winked.

"Consider it done." the Ensign smiled. "Energizing." and with that Torilla vanished in a transporter haze. "She'll arrive minus clothing in the Admirals bedroom." the Ensign explained. "her clothing will appear on the dresser thats four foot from her location."

Zara smiled, then hit her combadge, "Admiral Yamaguchi?, Tane again. Your package has arrived."

Jake's voice came back as a soft chuckle could be heard. "Understood Captain, thank you for delivering her."

"No problem, Sir. Tane out."
