Audra's face brightened with a smile.  "It is my pleasure, Commander." She started walking a gain, and a moment later they found themselves on a turbolift.  The Ops Manager requested the appropriate deck and turned to face the station's newest Security Officer.  As the car started to hum, she picked up the conversation once again.  "Where were you stationed before being assigned to Spacedock?"
 
"I actually just completed my time at Starfleet Academy.  Other then my training assignments, I have no real experience."
 
Now that he said it, Audra remembered seeing that in his file when he was assigned.  "It sounds like we have a newbie.  It is a nice assignment to have for a first assignment since it is so close to where you received your training.  Are you disappointed at not having been assigned to a ship?"
 
Geb shook his head.  "Not at all.  I was actually hoping to get an assignment on a planet-side base or in a space station.  This is the perfect assignment for me."
 
Just then the turbolift car slowed to a halt and the doors parted revealing the Promenade outside.  The restaurant was actually just across the hall.  The pair made their way across to the entrance and Audra approached the matire d'.  "I am Commander Firehawk.  I have reservations to have dinner with Counselor Kirk."
 
The human looked down.  He was dressed as an old style cowboy in denim, leather chaps, a lasso, and a cowboy hat.  After scanning his console for a moment, he looked back at her.  "The Counselor has already arrived. Would you like me to bring you to her table."
 
"Actually, there will be a third person joining us," she replied as she indicated Geb.  "Is there enough seats at the table?"  Audra had to fight to repress the devilish grin that had formed on her face.
 
The maitre d' studied the Brikarian, and his eyes bulged slightly in surprise.  "Er ... of course.  He said as he selected two menu PADDs.  "This way please."
 
The trio made their way over to the table where the maitre d' dropped off Geb and Audra.  "I hope you don't mind, Joanna, but I thought I would bring a new friend to join us for dinner."
 
(Kirk?)
