The next few days saw the crew of the Endeavor settling in as the rest of the flotilla arrived, three Osean frigates and a Terran destroyer. the crews bonded well as Captain Sheik was promoted to commodore. Alex was on shore leave that night her and Hawkeye became regulars in the surface night clubs and bars as Alex stood at the bar of one drunkenly ordering shots

it took a while to rearrange my schedule and re-embers those I didn't get to see during the abduction. I smiled hearing the kids in the other room of the ship and looked back to the screen in front of me. "I apologize again Lord Typhus for delaying our appointment" I told the gray skinned man on my screen. "If you are able maybe you would be willing to come here for our appointment? Since i am still grounded for a while" I asked and smiled.

"Hmm Its is unfortunate that one of our own was involved in all this....affair" Typhus said as he moved to change his posture "It has been to long since i got to look on your loverly face, but im sure I can wait a little longer" He said with a devilish smile before the transmission ended.
Alex spent the last week as she did on Tanis, Drunk or in cyberspace. Alex walked out of a shop in one of the back streets of the city with a virtual visor dangling round her neck as she read a sheet of holoprint the cords ran under the black hood of the hoodie she wore, Alex had been off duty for the last week while she waited for her first command to show up, A Hiigaran Frigate had been assigned to her but wouldnt arrive for a week. Alex wore a light gray hoodie over a red t shirt and jeans she wondered down the street read the holoprint her green eye focused on it through her glasses on the way back to the Barracks

I gave Typhus one last bashful smile before the transmission was terminated. I left the room and chuckled at the kids as they played. "Come on you two, lets go out to the park" I told them. "YAY Park, Park" they both cheered and ran to get their jackets. As we walked to the park I swung their arms back and forth as they giggled and laughed happily.

Alex rounded a cornner as she looked at the VirtualVisor on round her neck she folded up the holoprint and put it in her back pocket and picked up the visor from her neck and held it infront of her head and looked a the holo-emitters and screen "hehe...totally worth half a years pay" she giggled to herself. Alex suddenly found herself wonder blindly into something Alex lost her footing as she stepped on the person's foot as the yelp pulled her focus "Ambassador?" Alex muttered when she realized her VirtualVisor had begun to slip from her hand "No..no" Alex muttered she lunged to catach it and shoved over the person she walked into, with a thud they hit the ground as Alex held her new toy above the ground and smiled with a sigh of relief as she push her self to a kneeling position her day dreaming suddenly lost focus as she realized where her hand was and who was now sat straddled on "HAYLEY!" Yelped and nearly dropped the visor as she got up quickly her face bright red "Sorry..I wasnt paying attention....I didnt mean to grab..." Alex started apologizing before she noticed the children "Hehe...um...I think..." Alex said and cleared her throat "Good day Ambassidor" Alex said and walked hurridly off towards the barrack to pick up the keys to her apartment

I looked down at Ella with a smile as she let go of my hand to do a cartwheel in the middle of the walk way. Just as I opened my mouth to tell her to wait till we got to the park to do more I bumped into someone, I let go of Eric's hand quickly and yelped a little as my foot was stepped on before I could step back I was pushed over. I landed on my back and felt someones hand on one of my breasts. When I finally got a look at the person I smiled as she got up and stammered an apology. "that is quite alright Alex" I replied and listened to the kids giggle. "Good day Alex" I added before she sped off. When Alex was out of ear shot I chuckled slightly and held my hands out to the kids once more and continued on our way to the park.

Alex got back to the Barracks and fidgeted around "Commander" Alex heard as she looked up at Hawkeye's grin as she pointed at her eyes "Forgetting somthing" she asked before Alex snatched her glasses off her face "another one you owe me" Hawkeye laughed "So...you coming to night" Hawkeye asked as Alex found her keys in her desk "Nah...thought i might have a quiet one" Alex said and smiled "Oh yep you and your imagination all alone in that apartment" Hawkeye laughed "It'll be just like college" she laughed as Alex went Red again "ok...yep im going home" Alex said and walked out as Hawkeye smiled "Remember 11pm" she yelled. Alex walked home in the setting sun, her apartment lay on the river front in the heart of the city on the 29th floor Alex stood in the lift on its way to the top and smiled as she watched the setting sun.

For hours the kids played in the park, on all of the equipment and with all of the other children. I kept an eye on them from the parks bench, I could see a few of the mothers look at me as i watched the kids and knew they either felt sorry for me because companions weren't supposed to have kids or a family or that they were disgusted from what i did as a profession. I smiled at Ella as she picked me a few flowers and placed them in my hand. I moved from the bench and onto the ground, she sat on my lap and I started to braid the flowers into her hair.

Alex had sat at her desk the large window behind her shone in the dying orange glow as she tapped through the files on her computer finished the crew assignments for her new ship, Alex agonized for hours but finally she was done. Alex smiled and grabbed ndher VirtualVisor and attached it to her headset and plugged the cords into the back of her neck a jolt made her flinch a bit as they calibrated before Alex took her glasses off a placed the visor over her eyes and pluged the head set into her computer "Welcome to the VirtualNexus Interface MK6" the pleasant star up sound played as Alex signed in, it would be hours before Alex would come off and go to bed, gaming mostly.....but it wasnt long till she fell into "bad" habits again cause it wasn't common that a girl connected with so many "nerds" even in this day and again....

Once the children got tired and all of the other parents had left, I lifted Ella into my arms and rapped one of my arms around her waist as she clutched her arms around my neck. I took Eric's hand into mine since he was too 'grown-up' to be carried around like his sister. I took them back to the ship and tucked them into their beds after changing them into their night clothes.

Alex twitched of the Visor and tilted it up so she could see the room "Scramblers working yep" Alex said and sighed, God I'm sad alex said and lent her head on her desk and frown "Fine Hawkeye you win" Alex muttered and got up to have a shower and get changed to go out.

I went back to my room and went through the new requests that most likely came through while I was out. I sadly looked to the wall that beside me and mentally visioned the kids in the room at the other side of the next room. I knew that I should have given them up the moment I hit a world like this one, It wasn't proper to keep them because of the guilds rules, but every time I thought about leaving them my heart constricted.

Alex had gone and met Hawkeye and put up with her smug "I told you so" attitude as she got drunker and drunker during the night. Alex walked home or more stumbled as she tried to find her keys to open the Apartment buildings doors to get inside "we..ll, this is fooon" Alex muttered and sighed "Food time" she muttered and wondered off down the street to a small stall that sold noodles ad sat down to eat

When I knew that the kids wouldn't wake up I sighed and changed from my normal elegant outfits and into some faded jeans and a loose top. I placed my hair into a messy bun By the time I was done I was barely recognizable as a companion and headed out to get some late night food. 'Although I'd probably get a discount in my normal attire I'd rather be un-noticed right now' I thought as I came to a small noodle bar and walked in.

Alex sat trying to negotiate her chopsticks in her drunken stupor "dam, sticks why you no do what I want" Alex growled as she tried harder to use them before resoting to the fork the stall keeper left her a sign that he was getting used to her coming in drunk
