Chapter 6/Kelly getting dressed down

In Admiral Cornwell's office Fleet Admiral Akaar dresses down Captain Martin like a third year Academy Cadet.

Captain is there something wrong with your hearing? Admiral Akaar says as he looks at her.

She's confused.

Sir? Kelly asked as she looks at him.

He turns to her.

Is your hearing well? Admiral Akaar says as he looks at her.

She looks at him.

Y-Yes sir it is good Kelly says as she looks at him.

He looks at her.

Then why is it that the Sizar system is in the hands of the Klingon Empire? Admiral Akaar says as he looks at her.

Kelly looks at him.

Because they had a superior force and they kicked our asses Captain Martin says as she looks at him.

Akaar looks at her.

Now, see, you can't even answer the question Admiral Akaar says as he looks at her.

She looks at him.

I answered the question as well as I could sir Kelly says as she looks at him.

He looks at her.

Captain we're at war with a former ally and everyone at Starfleet Command is thinking of surrendering to them but not me I'm fighting this war with every bit of strength I have and this battle should of been led by me not a woman who was handed the command of our flagship and picked a Romulan as her first officer Fleet Admiral Akaar says as he looks at her.

Kelly looks at him.

I was chosen by my father and Admiral Kira to command the Enterprise and since I've taken command I've been fighting this war with every bit of strength I have and the same goes for my crew! Kelly says as she looks at him.

Admiral Akaar looks at her.

I'm putting a reprimand in your record the next time we have a battle with the Klingons we're going to win no matter what dismissed Admiral Akaar says as he looks at her.

She leaves Cornwell's office.

In her ready room Kelly is sitting in the chair behind her desk when the doors chimed three times.

YES! Kelly shouts as she looks at the doors.

The doors opened and Shaakar walks in and Kelly runs and hugs him and just breaks down in his arms.
