Bethany hadn’t lied when she told the Captain her trip was uneventful, but it had been long. First from Norda III to the Star base, to find out she was a day behind Dresden. She’d finished checks ins and she was restless from being cooped up in her shuttle for almost a week. You may not need the skills now, Girly, but no reason to forget them. Bethany smiled hearing T’Jal’s reminder clearly from her memories. She wondered if any of T’Jal’s other ‘students’ heard her advice constantly as well. She snickered, the retired admiral might be older than dirt by now, but she was a force few were willing to stand against. She’s was a big mamma bear at heart though. Bethany wasn’t stupid enough to say that to her, she’d end up chopping firewood for 12 hours or something equally exhausting. She entered her quarters and changed into something more for working out, rather than her uniform. She grabbed a towel and a water and headed down to the gym.

Upon entering the gym she saw the cardio machines were full and so she opted for empty mat space. After stretching she began working her way through the kata that she knew. She doubt she’d ever remember any of them if she was forced to use it, but that wasn’t her talent. But the exercise was good.
