Every officer on the Grundusg look back at him in equal disbelief. &#8220;Is that the best you can come up with?&#8221; he said to the Klingon captain.<\/p>\n<p>It was the Klingon captains turn to look surprised. He had expected many possible answers from the Tellarite ship &#8211; but contempt was not one of them.<\/p>\n<p>Gevtek seized the moment. &#8220;You look like a human with that smooth head of yours! My mother has better ridges on her backside!&#8221; The Klingon captain bellowed and the line went dead.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;How is it you always seem to bring your mother into the conversation?&#8221; Gevtek&#8217;s first officer smiled at his commander. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Practice,&#8221; Gevtek replied.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Sir! Two more Klingon ship! We&#8217;re surrounded!&#8221; the communication officer said nervously. <\/p>\n<p>Gevtek kept his cool, not wanting to show his sudden worry. The odds had quickly stacked against him. &#8220;Contact that Star Fleet ship we passed an hour ago. Tell them we need some &#8211; assistance,&#8221; he said with a snarl. &#8220;And how soon before those damn starboard warp coils are recharged!? That should have been done an hour ago!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Gravau is calling us, sir&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Good, thought Gevtek.
