She walks down the corridor with a PADD in her hand. The corridor echoed with each step on the polished deck plating. The light softly guiding her to the CAG station, she can her the voices from beyond the door. She stops short, a tad nervous, but take a big deep breath.
She take a step, and the door opens revealing a room of 30 odd pilots, all rambunctous, and most men. Some Marines, and some Starfleet. The don't even turn to see thier CAG officer enter. Just continue chatting, and goofing off.
She clears her throat, but no one responds. The she yells in a Booming voice.
Calm Down Buttheads! Mother Goose is here!
With that the chatter ends, as they go to attention. She take a slow walk to the podium, inspecting these raw cadets she's been handed. As she steps up to the Podium she heres a cough, and she turns to see the Cadet that coughed.
You! Front an center!
The Cadet moves out to the ailse, and comes front and center.
Cadet Frank Cerrone ma'am!
She looks him over, as she now stands at the podium.
You, Push ups, and don't stop until I say so!
The Cadet begins to do his Push ups.
Listen up you aerodales, I am you CAG! Do you know what that means? I got to turn this pile of crap that fills this room into the best wing in the 14th fleet!
You apparently forgot everything you learned in the Academy like discipline! So I take it you can't fly either! Atleast with me!
I'm going to twist your heads, and fill you with some new material! So you don't go doing that schoolkid stuff you did in the Peregrine fighters!
Instead, we will be using the Shadow, and Scorpion fighters! Thats right I said Shadow! The old Two seaters your granpa told you about! And you will fly with 2, until I'm sure you can go solo! And today is lesson one!
We have a Saber Class Starship due here in 10 hours, and I want you all scrambled in the Fighter bay! Pair up, and I want you on the deck in 10 minutes! If you can't do that, then you can join Cerrone, and doe Push Ups until we get back!
She steps from the Podium, and walks by the Cadet still doing Push Ups, he stops breifly, and she turns to him.
I didn't say stop yet Cadet!
Cerrone continues, as she exits the CAG.

She arrives on the Hangar, and all her pilots are ready, although Mr Cerrone is very tired.
OK Gentlemen, we have the Crusader approaching. I want a standard Chevron escort. Chapel, Grosky, Hernandez, and Kretz. You 4 break off with the freighter, and escort it into the repair dock. OK, Lets do it!
She breaks for her fighter, all gus up in blue, with the squadron insignia applied. "The Cestus Screaming Eagles", and her name stenciled on the cockpit. She smiles, now she knows the 103rd is hers, and then she spots a new fighter in the corner. She peeks over to read the name. Major Jake Marone.
With that, she takes her seat as the Cockpit closes.
Starbase OP's. 103rd ready for escort.

He hears Stephanies voice over the com, and begins configuring the Hangar for launch.
All clear Stiletto, come bring back our heroes.
He looks on the screen to see Stephanies lovely face.

She smiles as the outer hatch opens.
Thank you 140 Actual, keep the light on, we're bringing back company.
With that she launches, and does a quad barrel roll, a signature manuever that all the Morgan sisters have patent pended. Her figher circles as her wing takes off.

Her wing makes their maneuver, and bring the Crusader into Space Dock. 4 Fighters split, and bring the crippled freighter to a repair bay. After they were done, the figters regrouped, and banked back to the Starbase Hangar.
After recieving permission from Station Ops, they came in for a textbook landing.
Stephanie, shutsdown her fighter, and the cockpit opens. She steps out, and awaits the other pilots to muster.
Well, it seems you hot dogs can fly. McGregor, you were sloppy out there. I know it's a little difficult to get use to a side seater, but if you can fly a shuttle, you should be able to fly this like a racer.
Tomorrow, at 0800 I want you all in the CAG. One of you lucky punks will be my Executive Officer. Until then, dismissed.
With that the pilots spread out, and go off into a number of directions.

Once Algren has found his quarters and store all his thing away, he takes a trip down to the hanger deck where the figther wing is located.
As he enter the deck he see the place is busy with flights crews work on ships...pilots talking and fighters coming and going.
Walking about he see non of the Peregrine that he flew at the STA...but alot of "older" Shadow two seater and alot more Scorpions fighters.
As he walks up to one of the Scorpions, he moves closer to read the Squadron Insigna....."The Cestus Screeming Eagles".
Now many thought races through his head as he wonder about the deck...but one question still haunts him....will he be able to handle this?
For Cadet Tom Algren, this question is about to be answer!

She walks onto the Hangar deck, hoping the day go quickly. She sees her pilots doing work on thier fighters, checking out equipment. She then sees Tom Algren, and walks his way. He's transfixed on the insignia on the Shadow fighter before him, as she stops withing 2 meters of him. Her arms folded, as some of the other Cadets look, with curiosity.
Cadet! Care to take the fighter to a Holosuite?

Hearing the voice behind him, Tom turn about quickly. He now see a tall red headed Officer standing there. Tom think this must be Lt. Morgan. He then saluted her.
Ma'am..Cadet Thomas Algren reporting as order....
not to sure how to answer her question.
Well Ma'am...I would like too if that is possable.
He figure he never flew one of these type ship and since it in a holosuit...can't damage too much, can he?

She chuckles a bit, as he stammers.

Since Algren hasn't has his breadfast he answer her.
No Ma'am ..I haven't eaten breadfast and I would be glade to join you...if that all right with you.
He fell a little foolish about his answer since she alway ask him to join her.

She looks at the action on the Hangar. Then back to the Cadet.

She leads him to the TL.

after leaving the Mess Hall, Tom heads for the flight deck first to see how many of the Squardon were there. He finds four there and tell them something coming up and they should get to the CAG room right away. Next he heads to the Squardon main quarters and find the rest of the team hanging there. Once again he tell those there that it looks like the squardon may be seeing acting very soon and that Lt. Morgan was right now up stairs with the "Old Man" and Major Marone.
Most if not all of the Squardon looks to Tom to be ready to head out into the unknown and are ready for acting. Tom on the other hand isn't that sure what will be coming up and how will he act. He remember that he isn't one ot those "Hot Shot" young pilots that Starfleet Command sent here..Just the oppsite...he was dead last all three time at the flight training school and if the line wasn't soo thin Tom wouldn't be here. But he is now and that isn't something he can't change.
As he walk down to the CAG room with Ensign Martin..he has a smiles on his face and making jokes with the other...but deep within Tom is terrify of this mission and the unknown.

After breaskfast, Algren and Martin both head to the flight deck. Once they got there They found Lt. Ricco going over some things with his crew chief. Ricco turns and see the two young pilot coming to him.
As they both got to him, they both saluted him. Lt. Ricco returns their saluted.
Ensign Martin...why don't you go over with the Chief here and show him what wrong with your bird.
Martin is about to say something went he see the looks in the Lt.'s eyes
Aye sir...I get right on that...
Martin heads over to the chief and his fighter. Lt. Ricco now turns to to Algren. The Lt is also holding his PADD.
Son....you have a problems and we need to fix it and fix it now. If not I will be taking you off the flight line...and I don't think Lt. Commander Morgan is going to like it. Well she?
Sir I am not sure what you are talking about?
Come on Tom....You have missed your last four training mission...that what I am talking about. If Commander Morgan wasn't so busy with those new replacement, I would have told her.
Lt. Ricco looks into Tom's eyes.
Son I know it's hard to get back into one of these things about your first battle and seeing your best friend get kill to boot. But darn it Son...you need to get over it. And get over it starting now.
I want you back here at 1100 suited up and ready to go...Do you understand me? If not.. I am going to ground you. Now get going and I will see you here on my deck at 1100.
Tom saluted the Lt.
Aye Sir..
Tom does an about faace and walks off the flight deck.

It 1055 went Tom returns to the flight deck. he walks over to his fighter and see if isn't ready to go. As Tom is talking to one of his flight crew, Lt. Ricco walks over to them.
Ensign Algren I see you make it here and early too. That good.
He now hands Tom a PADD.
Here is what you will be flying. It a holodeck pragram for cadets. It is three hours and it goes through all procedures of fighter pilot in Starfleet. i feel you need to start at the begin. You will need to pass all the test and then and only then will we be going to step two...live flight.
Tom..you may think this unfair...but I feel you need it.
Tom doesn't say a word and just shake his head.
Ensign...I will be telling Commander Morgan about this. She need people up there that she will know that they will do their job...And right now Tom you aren't one of them.
I will be waiting to see your test score...You have to be back here at 1530. I hope you pass Son...dismissed.
With that Lt. Ricco turns and heads back to his office, leaving Tom just standing there.
Tom starts to think that maybe he shouldn't be a fighther pilot and go back to engineering or maybe science dept.
