"Are you in charge of this entire vessel?", a child's voice excitedly chipped in from behind captain Maguire, taking them by surprise. They all turned to look at the entrance as an excited looking Navishka strode into the ward staring at captain Maguire in wide eyed admiration. One of the Sandawana's medical staff was following closely behind him.

'Sorry captain he insisted on meeting you after hearing you talking", the nurse explained apologetically.

"That's ok nurse", said captain Maguire. Then turning Navishka, "I 'm glad to see you have fully recovered..."

Captain Maguire was disturbed by the communicator on his utility belt vibrating. Wiping out the device he clicked the answer icon on the device's display as he he held it before him.

"Go ahead Engineering", he said speaking into device he was holding before his face.

"Captain, we have regained maximum power generation capacity", said the voice of lieutenant commander Simbarashe coming over the device.
