Enter the Promenade Directior
Written by Stewie McKenzie Owen Numan
############################################################
Everything was quiet as usual in the Promenade. The usual customers were purchasing food drink, and
clothes other things you would purchase from the Promenade. Being the eavesdropper he was, Stewie
found out that they were going to be in GELF territory soon and everyone needed to be alert. Even those
who were not on the ship. Stewie was puzzled, however, as he thought everyone was on the ship.
Being curious, Stewie followed Commander Niples
White Wolf into the communications sector. Hiding along a wall, Stewie listened to the conversation."Commander, I've set communications to the location of Mr. Montgomery."
Mr. Montgomery? Stewie was puzzled and listened on"Right, engage contact."
Silence."Charles? Commander Ni ... Oh Mrs. Montgomery?
Oh sorry to bother you, is Charles about? .....
More silence."Oh I see. Thank you and I offer my sincere condolences."
White Wolf disconnected the connection.
"I better tell the Promenade staff of this tragedy."
The Commander left White Wolf to finish off there and he marched off to the Promenade. Unknown to him
Stewie had skiddadled prior to the disconnection and was busying himself in some unimportant papers atop
his desk. The PA system crackled into life.KKkkkkccchhkkkkKKKKccch!!!
"All ~kkcchh~ Promenade Staff report to my ~kkkcchh~ office immediately. ~kkkccchhh~ Thank you!"Commander's Office
Owen, O'Brien, Stewie, Sunriah, and Cathy from Harvey Star Travel arrived at the office.
"Everyone, I have some unfortunate news. The Promenade Director, Mr. Charles Montgomery, has passed away."
Everyone looked at each other, muttering thing like: "Montgomery? Who's he? Do we have a Director? Ooh!"
Owen spoke up.
"Sir, we don't exactly know who this Charles Montgomery is."
Niples sighed.
"I s'pose I better tell you from the beginning ...
Charles Montgomery was a fast food chain tycoon who took over the Promenade early last year. Being the
lazy arse he was, he asked to have his two long
service leaves at the one go and promised to work
for 15 years straight. He went on leave before our longest serving Promenade shop owner, Owen Numan,
joined the ship. Thinking we had no need of an acting Promenade Director, the Captain simply made me
in charge of you lot. Now that Mr. Montgomery has passed away, it is my duty to inform you that the position is vacant."
The group were silent.
"It pays! The job is about $£50,000 a year!"
Everyone's eyes raised like they didn't apply with gravity. Everyone were eager like school kids.
"I wanna! I wanna!"
The Commander calmed them down.
"Each one of you will have a chance to run for Promenade Director. The postion will be advertised internally externally. Good luck!"Who will get the job? Will it be:
Stewie?
Owen?
O'Brien?
Sunriah?
Cathy from Harvey Star Travel?
