Captain Brooks Surprise 40th Birthday Party
#3
Daniel met Beno outside his quarters and they headed towards the holodeck. They had a little bit of small talk as they headed towards the holodeck.. Brooks felt that his FO was keeping something from him through as she was a little evasive when he asked her what kind of quiet holodeck place she had picked.

As the door slid back he was shocked to be greeted by a holographic version of himself as a medical midshipman. Dan noticed the rolling hills and a castle in the middle of it. Dan looked at Beno with a puzzled look on his face, "Doesn't seem very quiet." he teased.

Looking carefully at the holographic version of himself, it seemed a very long time ago when he reported in for his first assignment on the USS Copernicus, Dan couldn't help thinking of all the friends he made and those who he lost on the way. It been a long time in Starfleet. As they moved their way towards the castle Dan couldn't help but chuckle at pink flamingo. He didn't know where that inspiration came from but it made it colorful.

As they got to the door, they were greeted by another holodeck form of himself as Lieutenant Junior Grade who was Chief Medical Officer. Dan would always remember when he took over from Lieutenant Commander Lee Ander. There was plenty to say about the Commander but most of which was classified.

"Seeing myself in various roles makes me remember so much of my career." he said to Beno as the CMO took them through and handed them over to the last version of himself.

The final version was him as a Lieutenant Commander, it reminded him of his command test. Dan ended up having to send the Chief Engineer to his death to save the ship. It was a moment he will never forget and one he hoped would never have to happen while Dan was CO.

The last was the host of the event. In the middle of the room was a sword in a stone, clearly it was Excalibur. With a few feet about with the banner 'Happy 40th'. The holographic people were dressed in old English styles and spoke in the same way.

They were escorted to their seats by the Host. As they sat down, Captain Brooks said,

"Is this what you class as a quiet one... I was hoping to slip this one by with no one noticing...."
