Posted on Sat Mar 14th, 2020 @ 9:19am by Master Chief Petty Officer Horus Yamaguchi & Fleet Captain Marie Yamaguchi

Mission: Mission 97: The Fleet Reorganization Saga
Location: Various Locations - USS Stalingrad
Timeline: 0900Hrs - October 1st, 2392

Captain Marie Yamaguchi smiled softly as she beheld her reflection in the floor length mirror that she had in her closet as she finished donning her uniform. "I'm still good-looking," she muttered to herself as Horus peered at his wife, the Cardassian smiled warmly at her. "I have no complaints," he commented before he gently embraced his wife from behind before he kissed her on the side of her neck.

Yamaguchi moaned as she craned her head to one side, in case he decided to do it again, this was turn on spot for her and it never took much for her husband to bed her after kissing her on her neck, which he decided to do but he was gentle with her, for Horus knew how Maries body operated almost as well as she did. "Mmm... We'll both be late," he whispered into her ear before he gently kissed it, this only made tingles shoot up and down her spine as she had to fight her arousal. "Mmmm. After shift then, we come back here and you finish what you started and I will be waiting for you." as she regarded him with a smile.

"I look forward to it," he responded with a wide smile on his lips before he gently kissed her on her lips. "You are not fat. You are just as beautiful as you were when I met you," he said as he had caught her, checking on her figure.

"Flatterer," Yamaguchi responded with a smile.

"What, I can't argue with the truth and neither should you." Horus smiled at his wife and mother to his children. "Come on, let's go eat breakfast and make sure that Silara gets out to school on time..."

"Yeah Good plan." Yamaguchi smiled before she followed her husband out the door after she took a moment to pick up her boots.

Yamaguchi found herself looking at her youngest as she stood in the bathroom, facing a mirror. The door was open and she was wearing a tank top and a pair of shorts. "Oh... Hey mom..." she addressed her mother.

Marie was instantly concerned. "Silara... Are you okay?"

"I was... daydreaming mom..." the teenager admitted. "It's just odd... When everyone else was around, I wanted silence... and now the silence is... deafening... It's not the same anymore..."

"Stalingrad feels like the house you grew up in and nobody's home..." Marie commented with a nod. "I know your paperwork for the academy is ready to go. So are you."

"All my siblings are in Starfleet. So I began to wonder if there was anything else for me out there... We got enough Yamaguchi's in Starfleet.." Silara commented. "There is Daystrom, The Federation Red Cross among dozens of others... "

"There is nothing wrong with that. Silara." Marie explained with a gentle smile.

"I figured you'd want me to join Starfleet, same as everyone else did."

"Noo." Marie gently placed her hand on her daughter's shoulder. "I never expected any of you guys to follow me or your father into the service... Cam is considering letting his enlistment expire and I know Olympia wants to settle down on a planet based assignment and Ulani isn't wanting to leave the Starbase she's assigned to, Adrian supports her choice."

Silara giggled. "You recall what Adrian said...?"

"I do... In Ulani I trust, all others pay cash."

"Ulani did well with him." Silara smiled. "He treats her really well. We should all be so fortunate."

"Indeed, well, you need to finish up so you can head off to school.." Marie smiled.

"Okay, I'm going, I'm going." and with that, Marie went into the kitchen where she ordered herself a chocolate cream doughnut before she ate it in four bites, swallowing as her children came to the replicator for breakfast.

Marie watched as they ordered breakfast for themselves, mostly it was cereals but some ordered sandwiches and the like, she ate her submarine sandwich in silence as she reflected on her workload for today, most of which would be paperwork as she was helping to organize the first battle group for the nintey second fleet.

Yamaguchi sighed softly. "All I ever do is paperwork, being out in the field is almost none existent these days." she finished her own breakfast. "Okay Silara, time to get off to school so I can head to the bridge and find out what my lackeys, I mean my crew have been doing. Maybe there will be something to do."

Horus handed his wife, her uniform jacket as she slipped it on. "Yeah. I forgot this," she commented quietly as she watched her last child head out of their quarters. Horus turned to look at her. "You okay?"

Yamaguchi regarded her husband. "I'm going to sit down in my office and generally not do a whole heck of a lot," she complained. "And remind myself about how much I miss our children..."

"Don't worry about it, you are a war hero, you lead us to victory against the Klingons. Enjoy your time of sitting around." Horus grinned at her.

"Yeah but I feel like I'm sitting on my ass and not doing much of anything." Yamaguchi sighed as Horus gently placed his hands on her shoulders. "I know where you are coming from," he commented before he gently kissed her on the lips. "You'd best get going."

"Yeah," she commented before she tugged on her boots before she set off towards the ship's bridge. The turbolift doors opened and out stepped Marie Yamaguchi. "Hey guys, I miss anything?"

Commander Ken Noros regarded her with a smile. "Not really skipper. You could have gone on vacation and I doubt we'd need you," he explained.

The officer sitting at Operations turned her head, she was clearly a junior officer. "Umm, Captain." she addressed Yamaguchi. "You have an incoming message, it's from Independent fleet personnel." the younger woman explained.

Yamaguchi raised an eyebrow. "Either I've got an assignment or I'm about to lose my command." she let out a soft sigh. "I'll take it in the ready room Lieutenant."

"Aye Captain." The younger woman responded before she sighed softly, she then sent the message to the ready room for the Captain's needs.

Yamaguchi moved into the ready room before she went over to the large wall monitor which she tapped once. The screen lit up with the great crest of the Federation before the face of an older man appeared on the screen. "Ahh. Captain Yamaguchi. Good."

"Yes, Admiral. What can I do for you?" Yamaguchi commented as she regarded him.

"I am promoting you to Fleet Captain and you'll be taking over the acting Exec for Division One for the Ninety-second fleet. Congratulations. Your new post takes effect at noon today, roughly about three hours from now." he explained. "So I'll leave you to arrange things for your new command."

"Oh." Yamaguchi paused. "Yessir. I'll contact the other ship Captains in my squadron and arrange things." she paused a moment. "Is there anything else we need to discuss?" she inquired.

"No. Congratulations on your promotion Fleet Captain. I will detain you no further. St John out." and with that, the screen before her went black as she sighed softly. Yamaguchi sighed softly as she went to where she kept a small supply of rank pips and the like for when she promoted others. Yamaguchi tapped in her command code and it opened, she pulled out a single golden pip before she pilled it on the collar of her neck, alongside her other four pips.

"Computer locate the ships assigned to Ninety-second's first division and display their names and the names of the Captains."

"The information is being collected now."

"On screen at my station," Yamaguchi responded as she picked up an empty PADD. "Okay, interesting selection," she commented. "They are all ready for service too... Even better." she mused to herself while she jotted down the names of the ships and of their Captains.

Yamaguchi paused as she set the PADD down. "I feel funny. I'm gonna go get myself looked at." as she rose to her feet and went out the door, her next stop was sickbay.
