"Vincent, I am going to New Talos.", Nikki wandered into the Star Fleet Commander's Office.
"What the hell for?", Vincent asked.
"What we discussed. Protecting the power of Governor Mandu.", Nikki answered.
"By leaving?", Vincent mocked.
"Trust me, it will work out better in the end.", Nicole responded.
"Beside, Brenna won't stop talking about "Uncle William". She is driving me nuts.", Nicole laughed.
"How will you be protected Nicole? Cleveland is not going to be too happy.", Vincent asked.
"President Hunt saw to that. The USS Wildfire, Phoenix Federation One will be arriving at Governor's Station shortly.", Nicole responded.
"Beside, the USS Wrath of Prometheus will be in escort to protect me.", Nicole continued.
"Yes, with Captain S'Nii at the Comm.", Vincent reminded Nicole.
"Magenta, Brenna and I will be fine, Commodore.", Nicole responded.
She headed towards the door. She turned around and tossed a PADD to Vincent, "Oh yeah, one more thing."
Nicole, Magenta and Brenna headed for the transporter before Vincent could read or respond.
Vincent looked down.
"I, Nicole Branson, hereby resign my commission as Vice Admiral of the Phoenix Fleet. Please consider this formal announcement of my intentions to retire from my Military Commitments."
Vincent stood up, "Wait!"
"What the hell is this?", Vincent yelled.
"Nicole!!", Vincent yelled.
It was too late. They were already on Governor's Station and boarding the Wildfire heading for New Terra.
