Kate was sitting in her cabin when Mike step in.
"Hi" he said and kissed her. Kate try to escape to the kiss. "Not here please." she said.
"Kate it is your last day on the ship. From tomorrow you are gonna work in Navcom. And Hammersley is gonna get new XO and new Coxswain." said Mike and smiled.
"Who is new XO?" asked Kate.
"You will be surprised! He is an old friend and he is coming soon and I let you discover him!"
"Ok" said Kate and narrowed her eyes.
Meanwhile, Bomber was at Navcom.
"From today, you are posted back on Hammersley as their Coxswain." said Maxine.
"Aye ma'am. It is gonna be good to see old crew." said Bomber and smiled.
"It is not all old. They are gonna have new XO and new boatswain." added Maxine. "I will be happy to meet new XO." smiled Bomber.
"I doubt that Bomber. Now you should to move, you need to be on Hammersley for one hour." said Maxine.
"Ok Ma'am I will go now." Bomber went into the port where Kate was departing from crew.
"It was my honer to serv with you all." said Kate.
"We will miss you ma'am!" said 2Dads and hugged Kate.
"Who is new XO?" asked Bomber when she joined them.
"Mike said that will be surprise." said Kate. " I am pressed to see him but I don't like surprises!" said Bomber.
"Me neither." added Nav.
"Don't worry. This surprise you both will like it." said Mike with a grin.
"Hammersley, I want to present you your new XO Leutenant Tomaszewski." said Maxine and pointed on Buffer. Bomber couldn't believe. He returned after two and a half years after. "Welcome aboard." said Mike and shock Buffer's hand.
"No way!" grined Spider and hugged his best mate.
"What a wonderful surprise"said Kate. "Welcome back Buff! Or Pete." she added.
"No. I am still Buffer." answered Buffer with a grin. "Oh no" said 2Dads.
"He can't be so bad." added Bird.
"He is harder than tone of briks." added Bomber while she was remembering all their fights on board.
"And our new-old buffer Dutchy." said Mike. "This is gonna be worst combination than Buffer-Kate" whishspered 2Dads.
"You have something to say 2Dads?" asked Buffer.
"No sir. Just wanted to say welcome back." he murmured confused "Ok then, our crew is now complete! It is time to raise the anchor and to sail out." said Mike, who wasn't so tempted to left Kate. They farewelled and left port. "Who is the cook?" asked Charge walking toward galley with Bomber and Spider.
"What do you think?" said a men voice.
"Chefo?!" said Spider surprised.
