John studied his dinner companion, only half-listening as she outlined her ideas for maximizing her search for suitable crew replacements. He thought it might be the wine, or perhaps the satisfaction of public vindication, but whatever the cause, he smiled and basked in an ocean of contentment.
He gazed into Rebeccah’s beguiling green eyes and wondered if more than just his desire to serve had been rekindled. He sipped his wine, content to let the next weeks, months, and years play out as they would. He planned to enjoy every minute to the fullest.
“Commander,” he grinned, “would you care to dance?”
About Cheryl Angst

From her earliest stories, penned at age six, Cheryl populated her tales with aliens, monsters, fairies, and all sorts of science and magic. A diehard fan of the complexity of the human condition, she believes the fantastical is the perfect backdrop for showcasing the best and worst of humanity’s foibles. Cheryl believes we are never more human than when we’re placed in foreign situations--and space is about as foreign as we can get these days.
Like her favorite sci-fi television show from the late 80’s and early 90’s, The Firestorm Conspiracy is populated with an ensemble cast. Now that the stage has been set, future works will focus on fewer characters at a time but delve more deeply into each character’s psyche.
The Firestorm Conspiracy only hints at a possible romance between John and Rebeccah, but rest assured, Cheryl is a hopeless romantic and things won’t stay that way for long. The captain and his XO will get their happily ever after--but not before they’ve been through the wringer a few times.
