Sam paused for a moment at the entrance to Main Engineering, taking a moment to take in the sights, sounds and smells of the busy department. The familiar gentle pulse of the warp core in the background made Sam smile, it’s reassuring presence never failing to calm and center her.

She slung her kit bag over one shoulder and made her way to the core. She looked up at the column that dwarfed the rest of the room, and closed her eyes, basking in it’s comforting glow. She leaned over the safety rail and placed her hand on the cool, solid, outer casing and couldn’t hide a grin to herself.

“You an’ me are gonna be getting acquainted soon girl, you look after me and I’ll look after you, ok?” She whispered, and then opened her eyes to quickly glance about to make sure no-one had overheard.

EMMA saw Keene as she entered, the soft mumoring to herself caught her attention. She knew some organics spoke to themselves but she never really say it. She also wasn’t certain why she saw the engine room as a girl. Walking over EMMA paused as she cleared her throat, a tactic Jacen had taught her. EMMA was thin, with medium blonde lockes. She had a soft subtle accent as she spoke, making it seem as if she was Australian. The only thing that seemed unqiue about her, was the pendant around her neck. It seemed to be important, but it’s purpose unknown.

“Can I help you Ensign?” she asked her, a soft smile as she looked over the young petite Ensign over.

Sam hopped back slightly, with most of her attention on the core in front of her she hadn’t noticed the Lieutenants’ approach until the last moment.

“Ensign Keene, reporting aboard for duty…” she waved the hand holding the datapad with her transfer orders as if this explained everything, whilst surreptitiously attempting to kick the untidy and much battered kitbag (which she’d dumped on the deck in her eagerness to examine the core close up) behind herself and out of view of the senior officer.

“I’m looking for the Chief… I mean Lt. Commander Drayke..... sir.”

“Ensign Keene… yes that’s right I remember seeing your crew transfer. Commander Drayke might be down in the engineering lab, he has been running an experiment with Ensign Kane. Some kind of… isntabtenous trapping mechanism. I don’t know exactly, Counselor Rinker claim it is a buzzard marring ritual if I asked. Just head down the corridor take a left and you should see the big lab with him and the Ensign.” EMMA paused as she looked over the woman before and wondered if she should inform Jacen he was going to have someone come visit.

Deciding it would be more fun for surprise, something she tried to experience more she decided against such, “In fact I’ll come along if you don’t mind Ensign, give us a chance to talk. I am Assistant Chief Engineer EMMA, I mostly rub the night shifts but I like to wander.” She said offering her hand to the woman.
