It was quarter past ten at night. She had received her orders earlier today about going to go escort the Bolian councilor to Cardassia. She must admit to herself that she does feel a bit nervous about going to Cardassia, especially with such a powerful figure she needs to escort. 'Assist the Bolian councilor to ensure success of the mission'. What's that even mean anyways? She had a bad feeling about this. Her thoughts were interrupted as her Aid came into the office.
"Commander! I hadn't expected to see anyone here this late. Hard time sleeping tonight?" Petty Officer 3rd Class Jones Keeler came back to the office because he had forgotten his favorite pen it seemed and that was something he took everywhere with him.
"Unfortunately so, I've just received orders to escorts the Bolian councilor to Cardassia." She said stretching a bit.
"Ah yes, I think that would make anyone have a hard time sleeping" Keeler chuckles. "Have you tried talking with Commander Pales?" He inquired.
"No no, I'm not going to bother the chief councilor with this. I can handle it myself. Besides, I need to prepare anyways" She said motioning at hee mess of a desk. "By the way Petty Officer, you will be accompanying me on the mission" She said smiling mischievously.
"What did I do!?" Keeler laughed in exclamation. "You had better give me a promotion after this!" He chuckled and winked.
"Hmmm, I'll think about it but ask for a promotion again, I'll have your ass so far up the Judge Advocate General, your head will spin" Tiria chuckled devilishly.
"Alright alright! I give!" He laughed back but then turned, grabbed his pen from his desk and left after turning to the Lt. Commander one last time. "Don't stay up too late Sir". Then walked out the door.
The remainder of the night was pretty uneventful for Lt. Commander Zh'kaalerh. A night full of preparing documents, mutual ideas between Cardassia and the federation and plain old research and lots of it. By the time she was done and headed to bed, it was 5 in the morning and she must have looked a bit like a mad scientist with her hair all over the place like that. She turned the lights out in her office and left the room, heading to her quarters to get what little sleep she still could.
