“Deck 23” Cadet Foster called out when he entered the turbolift. Nicholas was surprised to learn he’d be continuing his studies on the USS Chimera, the ship that visited the Andromeda Galaxy a few years back. While the Captain should already know of his arrival, Cadet Foster made sure to bring his transfer orders with him to report in.

It wasn’t long before the lift stopped and opened at his destination. Nick didn’t have the entire layout of the ship memorized just yet so he had to read the door labels as he walked past them. Nerves were really never a problem for Cadet Foster. Even if they were, he always showed a calm composure on the outside.

“Ah here it is.” Foster said to himself when he finally found the Captain’s Ready Room. Nicholas pressed the chime to the door and waited to be called in.
