Peter arrived in the shuttlebay almost fifteen minutes after he’d left the Bridge. He’d stopped by his office to arm himself properly before going down. In the Turbolift a reflexively checked the knives in his sleeves, the back of his neck, his lower back and then flexed his legs to feel for the ones hidden in his boots. His friends often mocked his overabundance of bladed weapons but he found them comforting, his time spent out of Starfleet ingrained that in him although he rarely needed to use them. As always he muttered to himself “Knives don’t run out of energy cells”. He chuckled drily, he’d never seen a phaser run out of energy in his life but he had experienced inhibitor fields before.

He was joined by a young NE security officer he didn’t recognize and the pair entered the Shuttle and began the pre-launch sequence “NE Tessa is it not?” He asked her and was given a slow nod “Let’s go” He said as he started the launch sequence and set the coordinates for the strange alien Vessel.

Tessa nodded and fell into step easily behind and to Peter’s left as they entered the shuttle. The NE smiled and nodded as she took the other seat and assisted with the pralaunch. “Yes, Sir. JG Tessa Walters, Sir. Tessa is easier in a pinch.” She was brunette with her hair drawn back in a coiled braid at the base of her neck, tight and regulation perfect. At five foot nine inches, she was a compact power house of muscle and determined movements. She silently mirrored his actions as if they had done this a million times together. Each check done a split second before he asked. Within a couple moments, they were ready to go.

Her own side arm phaser was attached her right hip in just the place he would expect it to be. As they settled back into the seats to depart, he would notice a small object under her left shift sleeve near her wrist. Trained eyes would notice the slight outline of a blade slid under the fabric. Perhaps would even raise the curiosity of what other weapons were about her.

“Clear for launch, Lieutenant,” she said a second later as the clearance danced across their screens.

Peter nodded at the junior officer and hit the command for the shuttle to lift off and set a course for the alien vessel “We don’t know what to expect, we will secure a secondary exfiltration point and investigate the nearby area, we are only supporting for the Away team” He explained as there had been little time for a briefing beforehand

Peter piloted the shuttle to the coordinates the Bridge had decided on for the secondary extraction route.

Tessa pointed to a good spot along the hull of the other ship and watched the CIO expertly plant them on the side of the behemoth. “Never ceases to amaze me. They seem so large outside, then you get inside and it’s more like a large house than a ship. Must be all the corridors,” she laughed a bit nervously. “I mean, if you could see out along all those routes I am sure it would seem bigger.”

She bit her lip and the edge of her smile crept up. “That could be an interesting sim for a holodeck, don’t you think? A ship so clear you could see outside into space while traversing the halls? The rooms would have to be opaque, of course. For privacy. But take the corridors from the inside, and place them along the outer perimeter of the ship. Now that would make for an interesting after shift jogging program. What do you think?” She had often run programs of other planets one couldn’t survive on without ev suits or specialty gear. Her first ones had been simple, like Mars or Venus. But as she explored space, she often wondered about other anomalies. And the idea of a ship that was translucent made for an interesting thought.

Peter blinked in surprise at her comment and turned his head fractionally, eyeing the young officer from the corner of his eye “I once spent time on an Orion Pleasure cruise, they used a viewscreen technology on the hallways to give the views of outside, eternity windows they called it I believe” He said conversationally “It was like walking on a platform floating through space, took some time to get used to.”
