{Starbase 57, Food Court}

Captain Dick Sprague slammed the empty bowl that previously contained his 3rd chocolate sundae onto the table. It joined a collection of other dishes that housed hamburgers, French fries, and much more. He stared at the large window and the stars that lie beyond.

Contentment. Retirement was only days away now.

He thought about another sundae, but something off in the distance caught his eye. It was a ship. Two ships in fact. Sprague was never the best officer, but even he could tell by the positioning that one ship had the other in a tractor beam.

Suddenly a crowd started forming around the window. Some pointed. Others craned their necks.

"Hey, what gives?" Sprague asked someone darting for the window.

"It's the Wayfarer--"

Sprague didn't hear another word. "She's here early," he said with a big smile on his face.

OFF:

Captain Dick Sprague
