Despite the awkward silence, Dira had a smile on her face and it was genuine too. “Well, I don’t know about you both, but I’m excited to get aboard the our new ship. Have you heard that much yet?” she asked with a gleam in her dark eyes.

Ria looked up in surprise, her head tilted slightly to the side. “We are?” she asked, a hint of confusion and uncertainty in her voice. “I thought the Ogawa was supposed to be repaired?” She looked from Dira to Achilleas and back to Dira. It wasn’t that she was surprised about not having been told before. After all, she was a mere junior officer. And what was more one who had only just graduated and been assigned to the ship. She expected to find out things last and that was perfectly fine. What she was surprised about was that there had been a change in plans and it made her wonder how badly the ship had been damaged and how narrow things had been. Those questions caused a certain amount of unease within her as it could happen again during their next or any other future mission. And while she wasn’t afraid of dying herself, not that she wanted to; on the contrary, the thought of other people dying terrified her. Especially people she cared about and loved.

Achilleas also had a surprised look on his face. “I knew there was some damage, ramming your way out of a dimensional rift will do that, but I hadn’t heard it was that bad. I’m guessing the new one we get will still be a medical ship, but the important question is how good will my science labs be?” Despite still holding Ria’s hand, he did not pick up on her unease.
