[Vimyridge] SD941119.15 - Researching the Asteroid Field Pt 1 - Nix & Smith (Vilqa)

[Kylana ~]

Kylee tapped her comm badge as she left the captain's room, wanting to get
out to explore as soon as possible. "Lt Nix to Smith, please respond," she
stated, moving to the turbolift. She would have to gather together her
supplies, and check the shuttle to make sure it was prepared for what she
needed.

Smith looked toward Sasha as the pair were taking a mid-day siesta and
audibly groaned, "Smith here," the cocky Brit replied while coiling Sasha's
hair with his finger. "How can I help you?"

Kylee tilted her head as she heard the man speak, before giving a slight
shrug. "Captain wants you to take me out to the asteroid field. I want to
leave as soon as possible," she said, not one to waste time on pleasantries,
her own excitement causing her to be more blunt than usual.

"Oh," Smith exhaled slowly and kissed the top of Sasha's head as he spoke
causing a muffled sound for Nix, "How soon is soon? I did have some," he
picked the correct words and came up with the basics, "things to do." Sasha
poked his side to which he gasped audibly.

Kylee blinked, climbing on to the turbolift. "Smith.. when I say as soon as
possible.. that means now.. So, whatever you are doing, set it aside and
meet me in the turbolift in 15 minutes," she stated.

Sasha continued her taunting of Smith as he spoke to Kylee, "Turbolift? Can
you please be more specific as to which one?" Yes cocky but it was a logical
question all things considering.
Kylee blinked, before shaking her head, realizing she had spoken the wrong
word. "Not turbolift, shuttle bay.. fifteen minutes, bring any gear you
need, including radiation suit.." she stated. "You're taking me out to the
asteroid field.."

"Fifteen minutes," came the reply while he thought it was more than enough
time to make it there just in time if Profen could gather Smith's gear for
him and drop it off in the shuttle bay, "Alright I'll be there in fifteen,"
there was a pause, "At the most eighteen." He closed the link and looked
toward Sasha apologetically, "I need to go but hold the thoughts you had and
we shall resume on my return."

"Fifteen minutes or you'll get to spend time in the holodeck training with
me to get in shape to make it on time.." she stated, her excitement eating
at her, and his response annoying her slightly. She had work to do, and
wanted to find the results as soon as possible.


Smith laughed out at Nix's belief of authority over him, she was no naive
and so new... "If you say so." And for a second time he closed the link,
"Need to go, the witch has her claws out." Getting up out of bed he kissed
Sasha and pulled on his tunic, "See you later." Sasha just smirked, "I love
overzealous officers; sometimes they just don't get it how much of a hell we
can create for them..." The woman left it at that as Smith winked toward her
and walked out of the quarters toward the shuttle bay in a slow stroll as to
use up every second of time alloted to arrive.


Kylee frowned as she rode the turbolift down to the correct deck. She could
see this was going to be a long research trip. "I'll see you there.." she
stated, exiting the turbolift and moving to the science lab. She quickly
gathered up the crates she would need, her brow wrinkling at the case with
the radiation suit inside. "Well.. could be worse.." she muttered, lifting
up the crates and carrying them with her as she left the lab and made her
way to the shuttle bay.

Smith arranged to have his supplies brought to the shuttle bay and alas when
he arrived they were there in a neat pile at the entrance of the shuttle he
was to man with the KMB junior. Reaching for his suit he did a quick
inspection then put it on then waited for HER to arrive. Even his thoughts
were cocky.


Kylee arrived in the shuttle bay, setting her gear down as she looked around
for Smith. Spotting him, she studied him for a few moments as she pulled out
her suit. She sighed as she pulled it on, finding it uncomfortable as hell,
but at least she was being allowed to do her work. "Smith, we will be taking
out shuttle 12. Captain wants you to pilot a trip out to the asteroid
field."
Smith nodded, "Alright. Are you ready to go because I certainly am." He
rolled his eyes and climbed into the shuttle for a quick inspection of the
controls and shuttle systems.

Kylee arched her brow at his tone, pondering if the captain had assigned him
to this to cause her grief. She picked up her gear and followed him on board
the shuttle. Stowing everything in the proper place, she took a seat and
began to plot in their route. "We have only four hours, so we'll be taking a
circular pathway to each of the locations."

"Ahh so this isn't a pleasure cruise then?" He stated and yet questioned at
the same time, "We'll be back in time, I don't want the Captain on my neck
any more than you do." He fired engines, "Bridge this is Smith requesting
permission to take off."

"Permission granted, watch for space debris."

Smith acknowledged, "Thank you. Smith out." Thrusters charged and lifted the
vessel smoothly from the deck, "Lieutenant. Hold tight." Once they were past
the doors and at what would be considered a just barely safe distance from
the vessel he pulled the throttle as it were and took the shuttle out at
increasing speeds. "It feels good to be alive doesn't it?" A quick jerk
starboard to avoid the warned about debris.
