A large man sat at the helm of a shuttlecraft and carefully watched as a timer ticked down. When the timer terminated he brought the shuttle out of warp and was met with the impressive view of the Ogawa. He had briefly seen it docked at Starbase 157 but hadn’t paid it much attention at the time as the circumstances had him focused elsewhere. His reverie was broken as he received a communication asking his purpose.

=/\=This is Lieutenant Iven to the Ogawa. Requesting permission to dock in the shuttlebay.=/\=

A brief pause was followed by an affirmative to his request. With a deft hand that was gained over the money years of supply runs on his dad’s freighter, he brought the shuttle in to a feathery landing. Séan let out a breath he hadn’t realized he was holding. He was finally here after what felt like a long flight out. The time spent travelling to his new posting left him with thoughts and reflecting that he would sooner done without, but those things always tended to creep back in when one let their guard down. Hopefully his posting here would be filled with less conflict than his last. At least he was familiar with some of the crew as they rendered aid to the Athena. That would surely help him fit in a little quicker and more easily.

After taking in a deep breath and letting it out, Séan wiped his hands over his face in a vigorous motion to both wake himself up and to clear his thoughts. He stood and grabbed his trusty duffel bag before keying the shuttle door open. He put his professional smile on his face just in case and took a step out into his new life.
