El had arrived. At last She could almost ‘feel’ the power coursing thorough the ship, although she knew that was only her overly fertile imagination. The ship was, after all, on station. She shifted the ‘sea bag’ over to her other shoulder, rumpled and used, and which had belonged to her father. This was her first real step onto a starship. The sundry schools she had studied at did not hold out much hope for anyone having a ‘real’ space posting. El was one of the lucky ones. Bryce had one, though that was as a shuttle pilot between Earth and the moon base. In short, he drove bus. But El would drive this. Figuratively speaking.

Winding her way toward Engineering where she was going to meet with her boss first, El took in the angle of the corridor and breathed in the recycled air that, to her, had a tinge of copper to it. “Bohannon,” she said to herself. That was his name. The small office wasn’t hard to find, really, and, with only one brief stop to admire the ‘Cochrane’. Oh it had since been more or less renamed to ‘Warp Core’ but Cochrane was far more romantic of a name. She knocked at the door. “Hello?” She called out.

From underneath a work area came the voice of Bohannon. “Yes, can I help you?”

Bohannon

Her thin brows bent as she craned her neck to see the source of the voice. It sounded muffled. Was the person okay? Had their been a mutiny? Oh that would be glorious! And so romantic. “Hello? Are you okay?” she called out. “I’m Elemirre. I’m .. I’m new here.” She slid her sea bag off her shoulder to the deck beside her. One hand still held the bag upright.

Lt. Bohannon pushed the cart like device holding his body out (think of a guy under a car) and exhibited more of his body…but you still could not see his head. A hand came up from where he lay and he said, “I am the Chief Engineer and I am working on something for now. Um…why don’t you settle in and see the Captain, medical and all that. Then we can talk. Oh, and by the way, welcome aboard!”

A second later he continued, “um…can you hand me that hypospanner please?”

“The .. the Captain?” she stuttered, surprised. She leaned down to see if she could get a look at him but his head was shrouded in shadow. Absently she looked at the toolbox and plucked out the hypospanner and handed it over to his outstretched hand. “I’ll check in at medical for sure.” ‘And get that over with,’ she thought to herself. As she turned her sea bag dragged with her. “Uh, sir, do you know my berthing assignment? It didn’t come with my orders. Wanna drop my bag before I look like too much of a gimp dragging it around with me.”
