Captain of Enterprise (NX-01)

Have Beagle, Will Travel:

The Legend of Porthos

“I’m pleased you decided to take me up on my offer.”

Captain Jonathan Archer gazed at the Andorian city spread below and nodded. “I appreciate the invitation, Shran, as well as the tour of your city. Porthos appreciates it too.”

“Without your help, Captain, there would be no peace agreement between Vulcans and Andorians.”

“I’m glad I was able to help.” Archer glanced over the beagle’s head at Shran with a feeling of satisfaction. Nice to be in a position to help two cultures work out their differences. “So where is this place you’re taking me?”

Hopefully, a nice restaurant. Archer had an aversion to most bars, especially the dark, smoky kind a lot of folks seemed to enjoy. He preferred a light ambience—not to mention a place that appreciated beagles.

“It should be around here somewhere.” Shran’s antennae twitched as he moved forward one step at a time.

What? Archer wondered. Is he just expecting a doorway to suddenly appear?

“Ah, here we are.” Triumph flooded Shran’s voice.

Street lights illuminated a door deep within a hooded archway a few feet away. The age-darkened wood sported an intricate metal plaque embedded in the worn grain. Archer studied the door in surprise; he could’ve sworn there was a wall there a moment ago.

Shran grasped a heavy metal handle and pulled the door open.

“Welcome to the Captain’s Table,” the Andorian said. He waved Archer forward with a tilt of his head.

Archer smiled and scratched Porthos’s ears as he stepped inside.
