alone, and fully dressed. We were in Ten-Forward,

huddled close in at a table. The Grissorn was on its

way to Anzibar II--not a terribly long voyage at that

point, mere hours at most--with the captain busily

arranging for a meeting with that world's leaders.

Indeed, the only thing that was delaying us was the

captain, who was, good as his word, taking the time to

consult with Starfleet before taking any actions. He

was also handling all contact with the Carvargna

himself. Said it was his preference.

No one was paying any particular attention to Kat

and me. Everyone on the ship was shaken up by the

turn of events, and the captain's welfare was on

everyone's mind. I spoke in a low tone, saying to Kat,

"Something's going to go wrong. I can feel it."

"You're not implying that the captain can't handle

the situation, are you?"

"I'm not implying anything. I'm just stating con-

cerns, that's all. You've served with him far longer

than I have..."

"Yes. I have. And let me tell you this, Command-

er," and she leaned forward so that our faces were

only inches away from each other, "I trust the man

implicitly. He is the most thorough professional I

have ever known. If he says he can handle the situa-

tion... if he says he's on top of things... then I say

he can handle it. I say you shouldn't worry."

Kat Mueller's words were exactly what I wanted to

hear.

Unfortunately, that worried me even more.

As it turned out, later on we would both be chang-

ing our tunes.
