gravities again.
91 "Yes, sir," acknowledged Helm. The ship moved off.
92 "Communications, advise Fleet we have made our first leap and headed for the second."
93 "Yes, sir!" Communications answered. He sounded funny and when North looked over, the man had a handkerchief to his nose, which was already red with blood. "You all right?" North asked.
94 "Yes, sir!" Communications answered. "Sorry, sir, forgot to fasten my harness! I fainted after the leap and banged my nose!"
95 North pressed his intercom to get full ship. "Second line Communications Officer," he ordered, "report to the command deck immediately. Now that that transmission is sent," ordered North, "report to sickbay. I'll handle your duties from here. I'll take no disciplinary action this time, but don't EVER let me see that harness unfastened before leap again!"
96 "Thank you, sir!" the man snapped.
97 When North was sure everything was alright, he left the deck to his Officers for a while and made a quick inspection of the ship. He was satisfied with all he found and returned to the command deck to complete his shift.
