Joshua was waiting for the press conference to begin when a woman stepped away from the president's entourage and approached him. He didn't notice though, as he was deep in conversation with Melee. He jumped slightly when a pair of hands afixed a Starfleet Combadge to his tunic. Glancing over, he found himself staring into the eyes of Captain Janice Mackie. "Captain, it's good to see you again. They'd told me that Solana relieved you of command and threw you off Excalibur." "Yeah." She said with a shrug. "Oh well. I've got a nice job now as an advisor to the president. And I've met a very nice man here. An officer in the navy." "Excuse me, but I thought you were married already." Joshua said, staring at Mackie. ""Only for the moment. We'd already agreed on a divorce, so I'm ok. There's no conduct unbecoming here." "Thank you for the combadge. I couldn't find mine anywhere." "Yes, you were in a bit of a hurry when you left the ship." She said. "Speaking of which, how did you manage to escape?" "Someone lowered the barrier of my cell. Never knew who did it though. I'd rally like to thank them." "Sir?" Tel'Mar said as she touched Kirk's arm. "It's time to begin the press conference." Joshua nodded. "Come Captain Mackie. Let's tell the people of this galaxy about ourselves and the Federation." President Mon Mothma introduced Joshua to the assembled Senators and the press. Zar Ugrael: And there you have it folks! Just when you think this man's story couldn't get anymore exciting, we learn that he's from another galaxy! Bidd Husha: I know Zar. I didn't think he could top that trick with the invisibility, but it looks like I was wrong. Zar: And to learn he's going to train as a Jedi just tops the cake. This guy is amazing. Bidd: And his life is made even more amazing by all these stunningly beautiful women he surrounds himself with. And Zar? Have you ever noticed how much Peenk Montal and the Twi'lek Tel'Meht look alike? Zar: Yes, I have. They could be sisters if it were not for the fact that they are from two totally different species. And what do you think of what he said about being able to breed outside the race? Bidd: I think it means I'm going to keep my girlfriend away from this Human. Oops! The clock on the wall, and Zar's wife in the booth, both say that it's time to go. So I'm Bidd Husha. Zar: And I'm Zar Ugrael. And We bid you a very good night. And I wonder what kind of news Ambassador Kirk has for us tommorrow? Bidd: We'll just have to wait and see. Good night.
