Station of Tears

[ASCI Nelson Stron 0]

Nelson had been depressed for awhile that night, his father had passed away.

So much for advanced medicine, even today, there were still some things, which baffled Starfleet Medical.

This would mean he would have to stay here a little longer than he would have liked, but.....it is what his father would have wanted. The moral of the station had dropped badly since his father's death, almost everyone there had been good friends with him.

To add to the problems they were already a week behind in a major shuttle order for Starfleet Command.

Not to mention all the other smaller orders for civilian groups. He hadn't gotten any sleep that night, and it was time to go to work, so what was new………as he had soon found out on this station.

Because of his…”connections” as being acting station commander he was able to find out Aegis had been attacked, he couldn’t imagine who would be crazy enough to attack a station of her size, but it certainly didn’t make him feel any safer on the New Amsterdam, a station easily half the size of Aegis.

He replicated a big cup of coffee and downed it. He soon regretted that decision as his stomach started a small revolt.

He walked out of his quarters and to the station's "bridge" or as they said on Aegis the control tower, not like this station it really needed one, but it was there, anyway.

This had been a heck of a week...........
