OFF: I am standing besides Balkazar, Kitana :P
----------

*Laurent hears his name and looks around but then sees a crowd of people. There were so many people inside the thongstore that he couldn't recognize who had called his name*

"But where were we Lieutenant" *he looks at Balkazar*

"I told you about that Starfleet officer that helped me out?"

*Laurent still wanted to answer to the question of the commander and Enoch*

"Commander, you asked me why I opened this shop? I'll tell you why! A good friend of mine, who is a high ranked officer aboard this station, told me that business in this part of space would be very interesting. He knows that I am a person who loves clothing, preferably underwear, and making profit."

*Laurent whispers*

"This high ranked officer also provided me with this shop, as he is in charge with assigning shops to new vendors. I've skipped several places on the assignment-list because I promised him a things out of my new collection http://www.expansionfleet.com/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>"

*Laurent walks up to Airis*

"I am so glad that you wanted to help me out here, I would never have dreamed that this store's opening would attract that many people. This day has just been......."  

*Laurent smiles and gives her a wink*

*Laurent sees an officer standing behind one of the tables with a glass of water*

"Lieutenant....something....I am not that good with Starfleet Insignia, forgive me. Is there something I can do for you...do you have any interest in the female thongs or other underwear we sell? Maybe something "Sexy" for a nice woman in your life http://www.expansionfleet.com/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>"

"Airis, that would be great http://www.expansionfleet.com/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'> and maybe Enoch wants to help too."

*Laurent looks around but can't seem to find him*

"Well if you see Enoch tell him that I wish to speak with him http://www.expansionfleet.com/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>"

*Laurent then notices new customers and walks over to them*

"A very good idea! I knew that the Ferengi background would be a benefit!"

*Laurent thinks for a while and then smiles*

"We should also hire some models, who can show our "collection"!"

*Laurent turns as he hears a woman's voice*

"Miss Kitana! Welcome...welcome..."

*Laurent quickly puts the last fur thongs on their shelve and then approaches her. He immediately extends his hand and smiles*

"I can immediately tell you, that you're hired!" *he takes her hand and turns her around*

"Tell me, do you have any experience in helping customers? I mean the people that come here are....sometimes a bit special"

"Very nice....Very nice."

*He steps back and leans on the table*

"Since you have the skills of a Ferengi, what would be the best "openings" strategy here on this station?"

*Laurent was standing in the door of his new shop. He had been working in it for the last couple of weeks, making it the best shop of Avalon's promenade. Today he would receive his final shipment, new lingerie and with it new sets of fur thongs. Several ladies had been asking him about it, so he had to order them.....he wondered how they would stand on those ladies...*

"Understood sir, I will be on my way"

As surprised as he is, he walks out of his holdingcell and heads towards the Academy

"I will be waiting here http://expansionfleet.sparks.priorweb.be/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>"

"But Commander Burke will also be held responsable right?? I mean, it wasn't only my fault, he provoked me..!!"

"I have no idea, I think he already disliked me on my arrival"

The Lieutenant stands up

"Well I was assigned to Station Avalon a couple of months ago and was very pleased with it. It was always my goal to explore the galaxy, and this would be  good opportunity for it. I was placed under a commander I didn't know at first. I met Commander Burke on my arrival, from that time I had the feeling we wouldn't be best friends. But I didn't care, as long as I would be working like I should everything would go the right way"

Warren mumbled a bit and then continued

"So Commander Burke was my commanding officer. As I reported in, he gave me no space to express my experience or abilities. This would go on and on, and yesterday the burden was to much for me"
