Mission: Dark Discoveries
Location: Ashley's quarters
Timeline: 0800 Hours

...Ashley walked into her quarters and looked around, after taking off her clothes, to put something more comfortable on, she walked to the window, the lights of the nebula glinting off her body. She continued to stare out as she called for the computer...

"Computer, send a message to Raging Eagle, requesting his presence in my quarters. Also dim the lights slightly." She asked the computer.

"Acknowledged, message sent." the computer replied as it sent the invitation to her quarters.

The Chief of the Boat read the message that he had received, though he was nominally completing some work on further repairs. Never the less, it would seem that as this was within his departmental duties it had trumped the concern that he was previously attending to. Therefore he stood and started to walk over to the other's establishment, largely byway of the use of a turbolift car.

Finally arriving at her door, he noticed it slid open for him, considering the shipboard computer's recognition of his arrival.

"Oh, thank you for joining me, Master Chief." She said turning to face him.

Raging Eagle rose a brow, stepping back for a moment, "Ahem, you...you are not dressed properly. I should have you demerited for indecent exposure! This is an outrage to meet a senior enlisted man of the United Federation of Planets Starfleet in such a manner! Disgraceful!"

"Hmmmm, so your saying the human body is a disgrace huh?, you were born declothed into the world, shouldnt you atleast feel free at some point?. Wearing clothes all the time is just wrong. The human body should be art in its fullest and respected, not disrespected." She said walking over to the replicator and soon a cup with ice water appeared.

"Sense im off duty for the moment, and your on duty, here." she said handing him the ice water, and slid her body up against Eagle's.

Raging Eagle narrowed his eyes, "There are many societies do not view the naked body as a sexual symbol. Unfortunately, neither of us are from one. I know exactly what you are doing and I will have none of this blatant moral bankruptcy! As your commander, I order you to cease and desist!"

"I figured it would be best for us to meet in a less formal manner. But if you wish I can go and slip something on?" Ashley said smiling coyly as she went to sit down and crossed her legs.

"Slip something on?!" The Master Chief threw the water, "You have one minuet to report to me in full uniform or I will strip you of all privileges for thirty days!"

"Hmmmm, Strip me, huh?. Well, aren't you the forward kind of officer." Ashley said as she slowly walked to the couch where her uniform laid.

"Help me?" she asked while smiling coyly at Eagle, as she slowly slipped her uniform on and turned towards Eagle as she covered up her chest right in front of him.

"Better?" she asked as she moved her hands down her sleek body.

Narrowing his eyes, Raging Eagle was caught quite off guard by her behavior, and he was not going to have any of it, "Stand at attention, Petty Officer Williams."

"Standing to attention really doesnt do anything except hurt a poor womans back, unless you give me a massage." she said winking at Eagle. "Big hands, youd be perfect for it." Ashley said as she moved to the couch.

"Come sit down, tell me about yourself." She said patting the cushion next to her.

Standing in the doorway continually, Raging Eagle made no move to enter, "I have given you plenty of chances. If you do not being to behave like someone who deserves to wear that uniform, I will have you transfered off this ship."

"Alright, lets drop the cards we are holding alright?. I invited you here to get to know you. Which I have already done. However, what I dont get is why your so tense all the time. I figured it was because you had a bad experience in your life where work was all you had left. Who did you loose to be so work driven?" Ashley asked changing from a seductive voice to her true voice as she asked him point blank.

"You need to relax sometimes and right now im giving you that time. I have two sides of me that you will always know, my seductive side and my true side, beyond that you will never know. Now I have dropped my front, the question is will you?" Ashley asked plainly.

Raging Eagle shook his head, sighing, "Drop my front? I have none. There was nothing that happened, I am simply proud of my position here and I wish to fulfill it properly. I have a sense of duty, and a wish to carry out the duties that I am ascribed. I am doing this, therefore, so that I might simply carry out those orders to the best of my ability."

He then added, "And now I am speaking to you honestly."

"See, now was that hard?. Now, why don't you tell me something beyond the duty to starfleet, you have told me about your job but not who you are as a person, besides you being Mr. Serious." She said smiling.

"What do you wish me to tell you about? I have nothing I wish to say," the Master Chief responded to her.

"Oh tell me about this ship, its crew, its senior staff." Ashley said still smiling at him.

"Do you want me to take a seat? I am a bit confused as to why, of all the individuals aboard, it was I that you choose to speak with."

"You can stand if you wish, however, im being polite and offering you a seat, wether you take it is up to you. As for choosing you, Women are harder to seduce." She smiled as she remembered her last encounter with a female.

"Your the COB, so your more in a position to know about the crew and the command staff wouldn't you think so?" she asked calmly and politely.

The man shrugged, thinking about the condition, "Well, yes, I suppose that is true. Now...ahem...what were you talking about exactly? Seduction? Is that what you believe you have done to me?"

"You think I was seducing you?. No. I wish to know about the crew and its senior staff as a whole. Tell me about the Captain, the XO, the CSO, the senior staff." she asked calmly.

Trying to maintain some degree of his own decorum, the senior enlisted man sighed and tried to respond to her in the most logical of fashions, "Alright, that is quite fair then. Have you read any of the biography files? Do you know much about me?" He laughed, "For someone who you have pegged as someone so devoted to work and all...I sure solve a lot of my problems with my fists."

"Are you threatening me, Chief Petty officer? because if you are, im sure the Captain would love to hear about how you threatened to harm a woman." Ashley said as her voice became a deep tone as she glared at Eagle.

Taken aback, the Master Chief twitched an eye, "Threatening you? What did I say to threaten you? I was actually trying to fix my...oh...the fist comment? No, you asked me to tell you about myself. I can't keep my mouth shut and I can't keep my fists in my pockets. I admit both those flaws. I was not saying I was going to fight you."

"Hmmmmm, I see. Nuts because I bet wrestling with me would be perfect for you. Wouldnt you agree?" Ashley said staring at him.

"Well, I need to get some sleep, so you can let yourself out or join me, either is fine by me." she said winking at Eagle as she left for her bedroom to lay down.

Shaking his head as if to decline the aforementioned match, Master Chief Petty Officer Raging Eagle exited the sliding doors to be once more out of her quarters...thankfully.
