The Chimera was a large ship, almost a kilometre long and over half a kilometre wide. It was larger than the last ship Major Tal’lia Veyo served on. She eyed it curiously from the copilot’s seat on the Runabout Lopori as they approached it slowly. The pilot was young, probably only a recent graduate of Starfleet Academy barely old enough to shave. He eyed the Major nervously “I’ve received permission for you to beam over Ma’am” He said in a squeaky voice. She smiled at the Ensign “Thank you, you did a decent enough job flying this tub, if you ever get tired of the stiffs you might find a place where they teach you proper flying” her voice was deep but melodious, the ensign tried to stammer something out but she was already out of her chair and on the transporter platform, duffel bag in hand. “One to beam over, ensign” She said in her command voice and was immediately obeyed. Moments later she found herself in the main transporter room of the USS Chimera.

She gave the transporter chief a grateful nod and moved out of the room. Just as she was reaching the door it slid open revealing a young enlisted in a flight uniform “Ma’am, I was only just informed of your arrival” She said breathlessly “We didn’t expect you for another three hours” Tal’lia laughed and started walking down the Corridor “I wouldn’t have arrived for another six hours if that Starfleet pilot was still flying, I took a shortcut” She handed the younger women her bag “Please take this to my quarters, I’d like to report in with the Captain. Inform Captain Vix of my Arrival” She dismissed the other woman after that and entered her lift. Unconsciously she smoothed her uniform then reached behind her head and tugged her the tail of her red hair firmly before finally placing her hands behind her back and ordering the Computer to take her to the CIC.

She stepped out of the lift and scanned the room to see if the Captain was present then moved towards the door to the Captain’s ready room and pressed the chime. As she waited she looked at her left hand, a small ring on a green pinkie finger was the only decoration she allowed herself and as was her way she twisted it three times before going into a resting position again.
