High in Dreams

- Good Morning Captain Kay.
- Morning ... you. What's your name again ?
- Ching Han Su, Captain Kay sir, but you can call me Hugo.
- Oh, yes, Hugo. Well, I see we're out of Hyperspace, have we reached our destination ?
- We are in the vicinity of planet Babooin, Captain Kay sir. We engaged the manoeuvres to beam a manned expedition to the surface of the planet.
- Good.
Captain Kay put his cup of tea on the duvet by his commanding chair on board of the USSR Enterprise's large deck and sat. A screen appeared in front of him out of thin air, it was a window like shaped translucent rectangle, that showed a green blinking cursor, then the words "Wake up, Kay. . ." appeared on it. Captain Kay stared at it puzzled "Do I look bloody sleeping to you ?", then the screen cleared again, and printed "The Vodka has you..." instead. "Oh come on, I see where you're going with this? That was a one time mistake ! Come on ! You know I don't drink that much... most of the time."
"Follow the green sanfaris." now the screen read. "What on earth is a sanfaris, and what is this all about ? Martha - he called - Martha ?" "Knock, knock, Kay" finally displayed the screen.
- Yes Captain Kay Sir, you called for me ? said Martha
- Oh, good morning Martha, no sorry, I wasn't calling you, I was calling the Junior Officer Assistant, second rank, third row to the left Martha.
- Sorry ? Martha said confused.
- You know, Brunette-5-feet-and-7-inches-long-consequent-rack-nice-ass-Martha. He explained.
- Oh her, OK, I'll go fetch her for you Captain Kay sir.
Captain Kay took his tea had a sip and said "Hole, have you selected the team members for the mission ?"
- "Yes Captain Kay sir, I made the selection from the personnel data base. I will put it on display immediately." Replied the electronic voice of Hole.
Hole, or Hole 9001 from its recursive name "Hole Organise Life on the Enterprise", is the USSR Enterprise main frame computer that handles all the spaceship's main functions such as life support, communications, cooking and recycling.
Now the screen read :
* Frodo Baggins
* Samwise Gamgee
* Gandalf the Grey
* Aragorn
* Legolas
* Gimli
* Boromir
"Frodo Baggins ? Who the hell are these people Hole ?" exclaimed Captain Kay.
"Oh, my bad Captain Kay sir, I have mistaken your list for the fellowship of the ring" replied Hole, "Here is the correct list".
"OK, good"
* Captain Kay sir
* Hugo
* The Brunette-5-feet-and-7-inches-long-consequent-rack-nice-ass-Martha
* The other Martha
* The unnamed Mexican cleaning bloke
"Oh great, I get to go on the field for this mission !" said Captain Kay enthousiasticaly.
