“Alright everyone,” the officer said to the group assembled before him. “I’m Lieutenant Aaron Blackhawk, and you can consider me your chauffer.” He smiled at the responding chuckles.
“I see that they’re six of you. As I call your names, please step forward, show me your PADDs,
and then board.”
He called out the first name on the clipboard. “Alyen.”
“Here.” The young Nlian male approached and handed him his PADD.
Blackhawk looked through it. “Crewman Tuskaro Alyen…Medical. Paramedic and Medical Assistant.” He smiled. “Well I guess you’ll be helping to keep us patched up. Welcome aboard.”
He continued to call out names and as each new crewmember approached he would
look over their PADDS hand them back and each new crewmember would in turn,
board the shuttle.
“Yeoman Danvers, Michelle…Crew Support. Records and Resource Management.
“Ensign Keller, Eric…Security.
“Crewman L’Naym, Shylea…Science. Specializing in Botany."
Upon entering the shuttle, L’Naym quickly spotted her lifemate and hurried over to sit beside him.
Both of them clasped hands tightly. This was it. After a year of training it was about to happen!
Once everyone had boarded, Blackhawk entered the shuttle and took the pilot's seat.
“Shuttle crew, stand by for lift off,” he announced.
*This is it, Beloved,* Alyen whispered. *We’re going to the stars.*
*I know, she responed joyously. *And most of all, we’re going together. We’ll always be together.*
*Always.*
