Managing some how to secure a transport shuttle from the Academy to her new assignment, the USS Wolverine, the nervous doctor strapped herself into her seat and settled back for the voyage. She had heard a little about the ship and wasn’t sure how she would fit in with it’s motley crew, she was never much of a renegade.

She drifted off in body and mind during her journey thinking about the time she had spent in the academy. Feeling as though she had been rushed through some how. As if Starfleet was in a hurry to get her out of the Academy. Or perhaps they were in a hurry to get her onto the Wolverine. Though she couldn’t imagine why…

Startled out of deep sleep during touching down in the shuttle bay, as she felt a fellow passenger shake her shoulder. “Hey, you better wake up we are here!” Stated the fellow passenger. Groggily Ensign Mantis said, “Oh yes, thank you” as she wiped a bit of drool from her face extending that same hand for a friendly shake and noticing the look on the face of the other person with an odd expression developing on her own face….she quickly withdrew the hand and practically fled from the shuttle.
