Jeralla

Steamy Interlude

The warmth of the orange sun seeped down into Jeralla's light-gray skin. She’d picked a remote location on this planet they were using for shore leave. She picked the coastline of an inland sea with a rocky, volcanic beach. The moist, hot air would probably have been uncomfortable for most of the species on Excalibur, so she'd come alone.

 

The sound of the waves crashing, steaming, and gurgling against the hot pumice was relaxing. After a swim that soaked the warmth down into her bones, she lay out on one of the larger rocks. Cardassia was far away, a whole quadrant away. Were there many worlds like this, unspoiled by the wages of war?

 

At least there were no scheming Vorta. No threatening Scorpiad.

 

She heard the crunch of pumice.

 

Although she was modest enough, she pulled the towel to her chest and rolled to one side.

 

A figure blocked the sun.

 

Jeralla sat up, holding up one hand and squinting to see who’d surprised her.

 

“Kallah?” she asked, wondering if her stepsister had managed to finish her flight duties.

 

The figure did not answer.

Jeralla felt the inrush of warm air as she gasped sharply. “You…”

Some shore leave!

 

We have a whole lot of mistaken encounters, people running around not acting like "themselves", and a stranger who asks Diplomat Jeralla for assistance. Was there something in the air on that planet?

 

Oh, and lets not forget that Ion storm bearing down on the ship.
