"There's Klingons on the starboard bow, Captain!”
“Lateral thrust to starboard—all propellers!” shouted the Captain
Zulu jabbed buttons, the starship lurched and the crew hit the deck in a heap.
“For God’s sake, Scotty,” roared the Captain, hauling himself upright, “couldn’t you engineer a few seatbelts for these bloody chairs?”

The prompt is Thrust

😆 My sentiments exactly!
When I was a teenager getting the bus home (it was a half hour journey) there was a group of older girls who were tough and mean to us. Of course the back row was theirs and we would be dead if we got dear it. I'll never forget the day where Sarah, the leader of the pack, was dancing round in the aisle squealing about something or another. The bus driver slammed on the brakes at the intersection and she went flying.
"SITDOWN, STUPID!' (more like SIDOHHHN, STOOPID) came his dry response to her humiliation. No one ever forgot it.
Revenge of the bus driver… it’s a well-known phenomenon on school buses.
Lol... Back in the days seabelts weren't mandatory
Back in those wonderful, free, pre-health and safety days.

I could really picture the chaos on the starship. The mix of humor and tension was great, and the “Thrust” theme fit perfectly. Made me smile all the way through.
☺ Thanks!
