USS Sequoia - Samantha Baxter's Funeral

[yugiman3000]

Im not sure Mr.Walker.

[Marco Diaz]

Diaz snuck in very quietly so not to disturb anyone and sat down

[Gordon Freeman]

After the funeral, Freeman walks up to Berik

"Thanks, I dont know what I would do if you werent here," he says quietly. "Apparently, I have quite a bit of recovery to go. I just wish we had a counsellor..."

[Gordon Freeman]

Freeman enters the bridge, and sees Ensign Baxter's torpedo casing, with a flag draped over it, adorned with the Federation olive branch logo on it, surrounded by the words "United Federation of Planets"

"I cant do this..." he mumbled under his breath, ... I just can't give a eulogy for someone I killed."

[James Walker]

"I hope her replacement is a worthy one. I hope Samantha will be proud of her. Samantha was a great human-being, even though I hadn't talked to her much."

Walker walked over to her casing.

"So long, you will be missed very much."

Walker placed some flowers, he'd replicated, on the torpedo casing.

[Berik]

Berik walks in adjusting his suit

Sorry I am lat Captain, please continue

he sits down

[Berik]

Yes I would like that.

walks up to the alter thinking to himself about what to say, and steps up to it

Samantha Baxter was a dedicated individual, she was always on time for her shift. She was always the first to arrive and the last to leave. Ensign Baxter was not well known by the crew, but had they been given the chance to become her friend and get to know her I am sure there would be alot more people here to honor her.

She died doing what she loved and I believe that is the way she would have wanted it to be.
Because of her my own life was somehow touched.

Please let's all bow our heads in a moment of silence
everyone bowed their heads in silence and raised them when a moment had passed

Ashes to Ashes Dust to Dust requim and terra paxes, May you rest in peace Samantha Baxter.

Thank you all for being here.

Berik came down from the alter to signal the launch

Fire the torpedo.
everyone watched as the torpedo was discharged and all witnessed it through the window

[James Walker]

OFF: Sad. :sad:

[yugiman3000]

Yugiman Enters The Bridge
"Captain, Sorry For that Loss...:( Everything is going to be ok."

[yugiman3000]

She Was A Great Starfleet Officier, I didnt talk to her much, be she was a one to save the Captain besides the Doctor.
Could feel Tears Going down his eyes...
He had also repilcated flowers to put on the torpedo casing.
Godspeed...

[yugiman3000]

Here wo go...:(

[Gordon Freeman]

Freeman was alone on the bridge, staring into the blackness of space on the viewscreen

"You know, I never thought it would be like this. I have heard other captains, especially Janeway, talk about what it's like to lose a crewman. But, to have a crewmember killed by your own hand, is much worse than I could have imagined. You feel powerless to stop it. Sam, if you can hear me, I am truly sorry. I cut your life short. I hope you can forgive me, someday..."

Freeman slowly turns around and leaves the bridge

[yugiman3000]

OFF: Shut up, lol, not really. http://expansionfleet.sparks.priorweb.be/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

[James Walker]

Walker and Yugiman walk onto the bridge. Only the Captain was there. Walker could see some tears in his eyes. He pretended he didn't.

"Sir, is it just going to be us? I would think at least Berik would be here."
