SBOMEGA: To Go Boldly

Arn sat in silence in the FLEET CO's waiting room. It seems as though it were yesterday when he was on board the HERMES. But two weeks ago, he was recalled to Star Base Omega without any notion of what his new assignment would be.

The shuttle ride was long and drab. Dr. Hemux was a people person and always enjoyed the company of others, even if they never said a word. The Bolian could talk enough for two.

After some hours, the poor Ensign piloting the shuttle to OMEGA had grown tired of Hemux' constant ramblings. Arn was aware of this and eventually came to a point where he disengaged the poor chap before the young man would need counseling.

Arn tried to sit silently in his seat, but he found himself drifting in and out of sleep. At one point, he may have drifted off enough to day dream about another time, several years ago, when he was in a shuttle...

Scene: shuttle bay 3, DS101
Time: flashback to five years ago

Dr. Hemux, CNS of the Yeager, crawled out of Danube class shuttle,
one of station's, stood and admired the amazing architecture of DS101.

*If this is the shuttle bay, I am rather elated to view the rest of
this magnificent structure,* Arn considered.

He greatly enjoyed the short trip from the Yeager and the shipyards
to Deep Space 101, home to many humanoids from across the galaxy. He
spent the few minutes on board writing a short letter to send home to
his beloved wife and kids. He told them about his wonderful new post
on the Yeager, the admirable crew, and his experiences so far.

*Hopefully, they will join me soon,* he wished.

The Bolian counselor went about admiring the intricate details of the
alien station and pondered on its origins, Eastern Bolian philosophy,
some quantum mechanics problem that had tormented him for hours, the
reasoning behind Klingon opera, and the meaning of life – all
perfectly normal for Hemux.

The doctor followed a couple of junior officers that acted as though
they knew where they were going and entered the turbolift. For the
past couple of hours, DS101 had assisted in transporting, by various
means, Starfleet personnel to and from the already busy station. Arn
overheard the young officers talk about the upcoming tournament and
how they were headed straight for Club 101 to sign up for the events.

*Sounds like a place I shall have to attend,* Arn contemplated.

As the lift doors opened, Hemux entered the vast spaces of the Mall.
People crowded the space between the stores and eating facilities,
all in preparation or anticipation of the emanate celebration of
peace between the Dergrad and Vurtedion and 7th year of Starfleet's
presence on DS101. Hemux read the other parts of the announcement
displayed in every other store and restaurant. He walked past a sign
that read "Security Central" and the extremely busy Club 101. Hemux's
first impulse was to head straight there to sign up for a competition
or two, but something caught his eyes. He noticed Commander Rudolf
Fischer, whom Hemux had not seen since the Yeager's arrival at the
station's shipyards several hours earlier, talking to a Vulcan woman.

Dr. Hemux ran his fingers through the tassels on his carry on bag and tried not to appear too bored. However, after nearly 45 minutes, he was becoming quite restless.

He fidgeted in the chair, rocking his large derriere from side to side. For the longest time, only he and the Fleet CO's secretary were in the large waiting room. The man appeared too busy to listen to Arn and was too far away to speak to anyway, removed from yelling across the way.

Finally, a little excitement entered the room when another officer, one that Arn did not recognize, came slowly and carefully moving in with a bag in hand.
