Memories from the Future Chapter 3

Another short section; setting the stage and a New ship for Cynthia

Out of the Frying Pan: The limited objective of taking all of Zeta sector, including New Sophia, Orion and several CRWS was a resounding success, as it turned out we were too successful as the politicos back on Amazonia decided to go for a bolder gambit, hence the drive to Mathematica. For this operation we took a back seat covering supply routes and the like. Although our fight around New Sophia was light, the other areas were better defended as a result some internal restructuring needed to occur.

BATCRURON 854, along with the other elements of ATG 85 remained with 141st. However BATRON 163 was seriously depleted that as a formation it was disbanded. The flagship of this BATRON was Pacificator, a Minerva class dreadnought. Because of cross leveling with other ships, it seemed that the command division of the Pacificator was lacking one BDC qualified Kaptain. Due to the casualties taken, there were no qualified officettes in the 141st Attack Fleet that could be spared. The problem of where to find the needed officette was solved when the Pacificator joined BATCRURON 854, thus changing the designator to BATRON 854.

MISS PARKER REPORT TO THE BDC, MISS PARKER REPORT TO BDC

I was shocked to hear the summons as I was off duty, as I headed to the BDC, I passed one of the portside view ports and noticed that the star field was blocked by the massive form of a ship. While I was asleep we must have docked. I entered the BDC and was met by Ms. Francis and Lady Karlie, accompanying them were two more ladies, one a lady Baroness (our Squadron Regent) and another Lady Knight.

Ms. Francis was the one to greet me after I reported. “Ah Miss Parker, allow me to name Her Noble Ladyship Baroness Elizabeth Meyer, and Lady Samantha Schneider. As you know Lady Elizabeth is our Squadron Regent, she is transferring her flag from the Debutante to the Pacificator. Lady Samantha is the Mistress of Her Imperial Majesty’s Star Ship Pacificator. They would like a word with you… My ladies she is all yours.”

I stood there stunned wondering what two ladies, the squadron regent and a ships mistress would want with a Majourette, Lady Elizabeth spoke first.

“Mademoiselle Parker, Lady Du Prix and Madame Francis have both expressed their utmost endorsement of your abilities. I for one would also like to thank you for doing your duty and being instrumental in the defense of the squadron last cycle. Lady Schneider has a bit of a problem; it seems that the AISS Pomegranate needed a new executive as her pervious one was grievously wounded. And well as good as an Officette Ms. Nostorgoski is she just does not have the experience for such an exalted position, so we thought it best to bring someone from the outside. Ms. Timberland proved to be the ideal candidate, several years of command experience, and BDCO of a dreadnought. So Ms. Timberland became the new Executive for the Pomegranate. Although the best move for the Task Group, this left Lady Schneider in a bind, as she is now without a BDCO of sufficient experience, especially combats experience. We were all wondering what to do when Lady Du Prix brought up another problem; she said that it was ashamed we could not find an open billet for one of her officettes. I enquired whatever did she mean, and then she told me the story of this young, highly motivated officette who is not really being used as she is sitting as a deputy BDCO. I asked her about her primary BDCO, and asked if she would like the job of BDCO on the Pacificator. And you know what Ms. Francis told me? She declined stating she was happy on the Gremlin, but she did know of a very talented young lady who would be perfect for BDCO on a dreadnought. Any guesses who that might be Miss Parker?”

I stood there with my mouth agape, wondering is this true, “Err uh I…”

“Come now Miss Parker, why do you think you are here….”

“Um Lady Elizabeth….” Lady Karlie interrupted the TGR

“Yes Lady Karlie?”

“Perhaps you should tell her the other news first…”

“Oh right of course, silly me, I know why you are confused, Miss Parker, it’s that Majourettes don’t command the BDC of flagships, so we need a Kaptain for that duty. And with Ms. Francis declining the offer, we were still in a quandary until this dispatch arrived, Ms. Francis if you would be so kind…”

“Yes your Ladyship, uh ehmm, Attention to Orders, the Regent of Personnel Affairs acting in the name of Her Imperial Majesty has been authorized the commission to grant for superior dedication and service the following promotion. Mademoiselle Cynthia Amanda Parker, with a commission as a Majourette in Her Imperial Majesty’s Domination and Occupation Forces, Stellar Assault Navy; is hereby promoted to the new rank of Madame Kaptain, effective this date 2633. Congratulations Ms. Parker.”

After the award was read, I was presented with my new insignia the 3 pointed emblem of a Kaptain.

“Ok now that is taken care of, it seems the 854th BATRON has one unassigned Kaptain, as DBDCO is not suitable for a department head. So Lady Samantha what do you say do you want Ms. Parker here to take your vacant post?”

“I’d be honored to have her in my command, Lady Elizabeth.”

“Ah very good, problem solved, Madame Kaptain Parker, you are now assigned BDCO 1st Watch on the AISS Pacificator. Report to Lady Samantha in two hours. Dismissed.”

I saluted and hurried back to my quarters and started packing and changing into my Shore Dress uniform. At this point Barbara and Terry were coming off doing maintenance on their Raptors and strolled in, hearing the shower running and my uniform all spread out.

“Hey squidface don’t hog up all the hot water!”

I returned a muffled reply and quickly got out and dried off.

“Hey Beautiful, how about a kiss?”

“Hi Cyn, how about after I shower, I am all stinky…”

“You smell nice to me….”

“Well I don’t feel nice, what gives with the fancy uniform out, having another inspection?”

“Oh no, I’ll tell you when you get out, we don’t have a long time.”

“Ok I’ll hurry up, Terry come on let’s conserve water.”

While they were rinsing off the sweat and grime, I was adding the finishing touches to my uniform. I had my back turned when Wendy came in from her shift.
“Hey Cyn what gives another inspection?”

“No…”

“Dang do I need to get my SD’s out?”

“I don’t think so, by the way how do I look?”

“I’ve seen you in that before, no wait, awesome does Barb know?”

“Not yet, she and Terry are in the shower.”

“I can’t wait; her eyes are going to bulge.”

“I know, here you can keep these, I think you will be needing them soon.” I said handing my old Majourette diamonds.

“I hope so, I knew I should have tried harder for Command, ah here she comes now…”
“So Cyn what is up with the uniform, oh congrats Wendy I knew you would do it…”
“Huh?”

“The diamonds silly…”

“Oh they’re not mine yet, Cyn just gave me her old pair.”

“What on heavens for, oh…..”

“Oh is right Miss Foster.” I said with mock formality, “I am the new BDCO for the Pacificator…”

“The What?”

“BDCO, you know my old job was DBDCO…”

“I know that, but what’s a Pacificator?”

“Oh well if you ladies will get dressed and join me on the wardroom I will show you.”

I deliberately took an interior route to the Wardroom, so that the first time they saw the docked Dreadnought was through the massive viewports on the wardroom.

“That, my good ladies, is the Pacificator.” I said pointing with a big grin. “

Oh my Ms. Parker, you lucky girl, but what about us?”
“Well Gremmie is now playing close escort to the big Pac and the big Deb, so it will be like on the Golgotha. Besides Barb you will have your hands full with training up your replacements, and so will Terry.”

“Huh oh the same promotion order had a reference to a Majourette Bernard, being 2nd Flight Mother, and a Majourette Forest taking over 1st Flight as well as squadron Executive. As for Lewtenette Travis, um there are openings all over the place including several Majourette postings, but none of them are on the Gremmie, we just did not take enough damage.”

“I know, what about that?” she said point to the Pacificator.

“Oh I am sure there are some spots there; alas she still carries Warriors and Tempests, not rigged for Raptors.”
