Final Farwell
Chapter 1
Picard was on the holo-deck with Riker. They both were in the medieval time. Picard and Riker were on horses getting ready to joust. They both were wearing knight's armor. A flag went down. They sped at each other. Picard got hit first and fell off.
"Computer, freeze program." Riker got off his horse. Everything disappeared. Picard got up.
"Are you okay?"
"Just fine." Picard got up and moved his arm around. He could tell he was getting old. He could use to take hits harder than that. He felt pride and yet sorrow at the same time. The Enterprise was only a few weeks a way from decommission.
"So, Riker how are things on the Titan?"
"As good as can be expected." The Titan had just got refitted and lost one half of its original crew. He knew that the crew that had left had either got a promotion or moved to be closer to family. He lost a few good friends.
"So Captain, how many more weeks till decommission, and you become ambassador."
"Three more weeks. Then the Enterprise F comes out. It is said that it is going to be themost advancedship the Federation has ever produced." Riker shook his head. It just seemed like yesterday he was Picard's Number One.
"So how has Commander Martin been?" asked Riker. "He has almost beaten you in commanding my ship." Picard and Riker exited the holo-deck. They were walking down the corridor.
"So when are you heading back to the Titan?"
"In another three hours. Why?"
"Want to have dinner with me?"
"Sure me and Troi will be over in a hour." Riker head for the transporter room. Picard walked into the turbolift. He hit the button for the bridge. He though to himself how Captain Kirk felt when he had his ship decommissioned. He felt honored to have been Captain of the Enterprise 1701-E
"You can't do that!" yelled John Roebling. He was the ambassador of the Federation. "You just can't give my job away just like that." The President of the Federation was sitting right across from him.
"You are getting really old. I think it is time for you to retire."
"You are not to far away from my age either." Roebling could tell he was making the President mad.
"You are fired and that is it! I Want you out of my office now!"
"Be prepared to have a Civil War on your hands!" The President was extremely mad. "Security!" Roebling pulled out a phaser. It was set on kill. He shot and killed the President. He hit his combadge and beamed away just as the security ran in.
"Sickbay we have a medical emergency. The President of the United Federation of Planets has been shot!" yelled one of the guards into his combadge.
