Location: Various Locations - USS Roanoke
Timeline: 1000Hrs - May 12th, 2391

Saki Yamaguchi watched the scene play out before her, three massive guys in sports attire, as Toshnarr adjusted his patrol cap, before he lined up on the small white ball, placed on a small stretch of green carpet before him, he felt his claws dig into the fake matting as he rumbled softly.

Saki took a bite of her chocolate bar, it was apparently called a 'Mars' bar or so Frost Storm had said. "What are they doing?" Saki asked the blue skinned woman as she approached.

The answer was interrupted by Toshnarr swinging, connecting with the ball as it sent it clear across the bay and out through the forcefield and into space.

"Cool!" Saki smiled before turning back to look at Frost Storm.

"I think it's called golf." Frost Storm answered. "The purpose is to hit a little white sphere into a small hole. I'm not sure what these guys are doing."

Nuyari meanwhile, was sitting on Varkon's shoulders, watching the whole thing quietly, but curiously.

Saki finished her candy bar. "This stuff is... good." the small child admitted. "That looks like fun.... I wonder if they'll let me play..." she asked aloud.

Meanwhile Fordring's turn was up as he took a moment and teed off, whacking his ball out of the forcefield. "Do you think we'll hit Dreamcrusher from here?"

"Who knows... I hear her skipper don't like that though." Toshnarr rumbled. "Saki... Frosty, you guys want to try this?"

Saki looked up at the Andorian, since she was under the other womans care while Mom was planetside.

Frosty looked at Saki. "I've seen you gut large animals. This should be a piece of cake." She told the child as she offered her the first attempt.

Meanwhile, Varkon took his turn taking a swing at the golf ball. His first attempt, didn't go so well, as he smacked the club into the deck behind the ball, snapping the head clean off.

Fordring winced as Toshnarr sighed loudly. "Well... thats new" he indicated the small burn mark where the club had been dragged across the deck before the head had come off. "Ouch..." he commented as he handed Varkon another club. "I replicated about ten of each type..." Fordring said. "I expected it would happen."

Saki meanwhile smiled. "Thanks." and with that she placed her ball as she had seen the others do, before she tried to tee off but she missed the ball and let go of the club which went flying.

Fordring smiled as he handed Saki another small club. "Try again sweetie... visulize the ball and where you want to hit it."

"Okay." Saki tried again as she hit the ball with all of her strength, the ball however fly straight and true, right into the side of a Sparked Starfighter which honestly looked like scrap metal. "Ooohh.." Saki commented. "I think I made a friend." as an irate looking slob of a woman came over, waving her hands.

Varkon meanwhile took another try. He hit the ball this time, sending in flying sideways, straight into the same fighter that Saki hit. The ball bounded off the fighter, bounced off the ceiling, and shot out the hangar forcefield. He then looked at the irate pilot officer whom was stomping over.

Saki retreated behind Froststorm as Fordring noticed and he came over. "Ensign, stand down.... you harm her and I promis-"

"Silence Chief... I want her head... you little wench, you dinged my fighter!"

Saki growled. "It was in the way of my ball..." the eight year old wasn't having any of it.

Frost Storm didn't move an inch. "Your out of line." She told the pilot. Frost Storm then held up a single finger and rotated it in a circle. "You need to turn around and walk away."

Brianna growled at Froststorm. "Oh shut it Blueskin... she hit my fighter... come 'ere you little-" as Fordring grabbed her and picked her up off of the deck. "That.... will be quite enough out of you..." as he held the smaller human in midair with one hand.

Just then Commander Torilla Yamaguchi came over, wearing a tank top and a pair of jean shorts. "Y'know Ensign... when one goes after minors... they usualy do so when there aren't so many around... Now whats this all about?"

"That little bitch hit my-"

"Okay... shut up.." Yamaguchi sighed. "Master Warrant... would you mind escorting this... person to the brig..?"

"I'd love to si-err Torilla.."

Torilla's smile only widened. "I need to see to it that we get downtime like this more often.." she turned to Froststorm. "Thank you for protecting my granddaughter." as she bowed formally to the Andorian Shen.

"That crazy woman was going after a child." Frosty told her. "I was hoping she would take a swing at me. Chief Fordring defused the situation nicely though."

Teval whom was having a chat with T'var heard the shouting from halfway across the deck. Both of them came over, with Teval asking," O.K. whats going on here."

Yamaguchi turned to Teval. "I had whats-her-face arrested for conduct unbecoming, communicating a threat and intent." she explained briefly what happened.

Meanwhile Toshnarr regarded Varkon. "Nice!." he growled. "that has to be a record..." and with that he took a moment to adjust himself, then he took a smack, sending the ball careening out of the hanger completely.

Varkon took another swing at a ball, hitting it so hard that it broke in two pieces. one piece went out the hangar deck while the other hit the wall and shattered.

Toshnarr regarded the other guy. "Seriously.." he rumbled. "I did not know that was possible.." he added before he teed off and bounced a ball off of the deck plating before it caroomed out into space, leaving a burn mark on the deck. "Now that... is an improvement."

Meanwhile Teval walked back over to the table where Torenna, Zarloos, Anastasiya and Fives where hanging out. At that point Anastasiya asked, "So Torenna, whatever happened to Drake, that Intel guy whom was supposed to lead your department."

Torenna took a sip of her drink before answering, " Yeah apparently there was a mistake in his orders, he got assigned to Starfleet academy instead."

Fives smiled. "I'm almost devastated." as he sipped his drink. "What a pity?"

"Yep, he got assigned to be an instructor to first year students, and to be an investigator for misdemeanors committed by the students."

Fives winced. "Ouch.." he rumbled. "I wonder who gave him that assignment?"

Torenna shrugged, "Oh who knows, maybe he pissed off the gods or something."

"Or maybe he was caught fucking the Commandant's daughter... or his wife.." he then shrugged. "Wait.. what about the other one?"

"What other one," Anastasiya asked.

"Well we had a chaplin." Fives explained. "But... she disappeared as well.." he then shrugged. "she was nice to look at.."

Anastasiya gave Fives a look," A chaplain, on this ship, I imagined she ran away due to the amount of sinners on the ship."

Fives laughed softly. "Now thats hilarious."

Meanwhile Saki was teeing up for golf, she had her eye on the ball as she proceeded to take aim then she smacked the ball, watching as it impacted the forcefield, pausing only slightly before it passed through and went into space, causing the child to cheer loudly. "Yay!"

Toshnarr rumbled. "Very nice.." he looked at Varkon. "Your move big man."

This time, with a loud crack, varkon sent the ball shooting out the hangar deck.

"Nice!" Saki commented as Fordring handed her a golf ball which the small child placed on the small mat which now had a hole in it. "Say Big man... I think you like doing that... don't you?" Saki inquired before she teed off and smacked the ball as hard as she could.

The ball sailed straight and true, into the cockpit of the same fighter she had hit earlier. "Oh... crap!"

Fordring smiled. "Nice aim..."
