Timeline: 1900Hrs - April 22nd, 2393

Dessaix, Hassel, Mitchel, Schrader, Blackmoor, and other guests sat around the large table. An orderly was coming by and filling the glass of each diner.

"Welcome," Valerie told her guests. "Our cook, Mikwilla, has prepared a turkey she received from the colony. I hope you enjoy it."

A female Tellarite clad in cook whites entered the dining room pushing a cart. On the cart was a large silver food cover. The chamber was filled with the aroma of roasted turkey. Three other cooks followed her with other foods including mashed potatoes, rolls, and a silver gravy boat.

Mikwilla placed the large platter on the table. She removed the cover to unveil a dark brown bird. Mikwilla cut off portions and handed them to the guests. Several of the guests began eating.

Viking smiled as she began eating her meal, she found that the meat was very tender and the meal was a good one, far better then she had been expecting. "Mmm.. wow, this is great," she commented in a quiet tone.

"This food is really good," Schrader told Krywitz.

"Tycho approves of this meal," Krywitz replied.

"Yeah, it just proves a female's place is truly in the kitchen," Blackmoor stated very loudly.

Hassel tried to pretend he didn't hear that. Dessaix, however, did not. She raised her eyebrows at Sluggo's words.

"Could you elaborate further on that thought?" Valerie asked.

Viking shifted her attention, she regarded him with a rather evil glare.

"I wouldn't call that anything close to thinking," Jack interjected. "This is just Sluggo's odd sense of humor."

"Don't tell me what to think." Sluggo told Jack. He turned to Valerie. "That's why chick's have boobs. They're meant to stay at home and raise kids. Sure they may be almost as capable as a dude but you know, they just aren't as capable."

"So your telling me I would be a more capable Admiral if I was male?" Valerie asked.

"Thank you for getting it." Sluggo replied, thinking he had made a point and oblivious to Valerie's stern look.

Viking sighed. "Stop talking now." she looked at Sluggo. "Before I go into the kitchen and come back with a large wooden spoon and give you the spanking that you seem to deserve," she added in a rather snide tone of voice.

A wide grin crossed Sluggo's face. "That sounds kinda kinky. I didn't know you were into that kind of stuff Viking?"

"Shut up." Jack told him under his breath.

Sluggo ignored Jack and kept talking. "You free to get up and get that spoon." He smiled at Viking.

Viking narrowed her eyes, one could almost see smoke hissing out of her ears. "Get up." she commented before she rose to her feet. She launched across to him, grabbed him and then she hauled him to his feet, right before she smashed her elbow into his face. "How ignorant are you?. Do you get your kicks off on being a throwback to a more ignorant time?" she demanded before she bitch-slapped him across the face.

Blood trickled down from Sluggo's nose. He wiped his hand across his face to clear the blood away. He then smiled at Viking. "Your feisty, I like that in a chick."

Viking regarded him. "Unbelievable," she commented. "Colonel, how do you tolerate this clown?" she inquired of Dirty Jack. "I'm surprised that someone hasn't tried to kill him already."

"Actually he did get stabbed when he mouthed off to a Klingon female. She plunged a dagger into his chest. We had to beam him to sick bay and they had to do surgery." Jack told Viking.

"A pity she couldn't have dug it in deeper." Valerie added.

"Only proves my point. Womanfolk ain't as good at killing as menfolk." Sluggo added.

Viking regarded Jack. "Okay. This will end badly." and with that, she quickly snatched up a knife and a moment later, it seemed to appear in the side of Sluggo's neck. "You insisted," she commented as she pulled the knife back out, causing more blood to pour forth.

Sluggo put his hand to his neck. He pulled it away and saw the blood. "Ah man, I'm bleeding." Blood began to splatter on the white table cloth.

Jack threw his flatware into his plate. "I knew this was too good to last. Alright, we are going to sick bay." As he motioned Sluggo out. "Your confined to quarters immediately," Jack told Viking.

"I'll see to that," Valerie told Jack as he was headed out of the mess hall. Valerie turned to Viking. "If you can behave yourself you can finish your meal. Afterwards you will go to your quarters and stay there until we figure out what to do with you."

"Yessir." Viking sighed softly as she gently placed the knife she had stabbed Slugo with, onto the table before she resumed her seat, there was nothing else for her to say other then she had severaly overreacted, she had not intended to stab him as things had gotten out of control, now she would finish her meal and then she'd pay the price fo the meal later.

There was an awkward silence in the mess hall. Krywitz finally spoke up. "Tycho feels threatened by Viking."

"I don't." Choogi replied. "I'm glad he was stabbed."

"That will be enough." Valerie chided Choogi. She turned her attention to the cook. "The meal was well done. I may use you as my personal cook."

"Thank you Admiral but I'm leaving Star Fleet. I'm going to own my own restaurant here." Mikwilla replied. "It is going to be fast food. Recently, I was introduced to something called a 'cheeseburger'. It is made of finely chopped bovine meat covered in some sort of bovine cheese melted on top. At first I was appalled at such food but after eating it I have tasted nothing as satisfying."

"I'll have to stop by." Valerie replied.

"So, do normally stab people your mad at or is Sluggo your first time?" Bubba Gordon asked.

Viking was mortified, she had not intended to stab Sluggo. "No. Well.. that was unplanned. I didn't want to hurt him but he left my little option really." she sighed before she shifted her attention to Krywitz. "Do you always speak of yourself in the third person?"

"Yes he does." Schrader interrupted. "Not to speak for him but talking to him about it just gets more confusing. And Sluggo has a way of pissing us all off. We just...never stabbed him."

Viking sighed. "Lovely. Well fuck it. my career is ruined." she turned to Mikwilla. "Can I get a job, working for you?"

"Your career is not over, at least for now." Valerie spoke up. "Again, I'm not sure how this will shake out but for now stay quiet and out of sight."

"Yessir." Viking answered, in a quiet tone.

"Did you use Russet potatoes?" Valerie asked, trying to change the subject.

"No, actually Yukon Gold." Mikwilla replied.

"Tastes like the food my Mama used to cook." Bubba told the Tellarite with a smile.

Viking smiled as she finished the mouthfull of food in her mouth. "My compliments to the Chef."
