Posted by Captain Molly Holloway (Commanding Officer) in Cal’s Quarters/Cargo Bay 1 – An unexpected package
In Calvin Harris’s quarters, a small light on the desk’s terminal blinked softly, indicative of a new message.

To: Colonel Calvin Harris
The package with ref:1837852A is ready for pickup in Cargo Bay 1.
Please do so at your convenience.

Having just gotten back from the gym, Cal clicked the acceptance key… read the message… then closed the screen and headed to the shower. 15 minutes later, the Marine CO walked into Cargo Bay 1 and walked over to the Ops Desk. “Excuse me, I got a message about a package for me. Calvin Harris.”

“Uh… ah yes, Sir.” The clearly distracted young Ensign quickly stood at attention, before turning back to his terminal and cross-referencing the Marine’s name with the Dresden’s list of incoming packages. “Follow me, please” The Ensign said as he walked with large strides across the bay.

“This one.” The young man motioned to a large wooden crate, about 20 inches in length, 13 inches in depth, and 7 inches in height. The whole front of the crate was taken by an ostentatious crest engraved in maroon. Underneath the crest, also engraved, a ribbon read ‘Nisi Dominus’ (OOC: If not God, nothing). “It’s quite heavy… do you want us to transport it directly to your room? Usually we would simply do that instead of having you come all the way here… but it requires you to sign a proof of receipt…” He said as he extended Cal a PaDD for him to sign.

“Quite a curious one, isn’t it?” The Ensign chuckled. “Could you give us a hint as to what is inside? Me and my mates spent the whole morning trying to figure it out.”
