"Okay, let's see what this can do. Initiating take off sequence..."
Luckily for all, the flight controls could be very automated and once a destination was selected, the craft would pilot itself. Assuming no complications arose.
There is always risk in operating new technology, but Mehv exuded confidence hoping to keep his passengers relaxed. _________________

ACTION
The vessel smoothly lifts off from the planets surface and begins to gain altitude. Within minutes it has cleared the atmosphere and begins to approach the Guardian. Just as Kuplo begins to wonder if he is going to have to figure out the manual controls the engines shut down as auxilary power reaches critical levels. A blue energy beam shoots from the Guardian and envelopes the ship, bringing it safely to the main shuttlebay. _________________

Talbert stepped off the ship onto the Guardian's familiar deck. As the science and security teams dispersed, and engineering teams moved in, he turned to Mehv.
"Nice work, Ensign. Good to have you on our team. If engineering can spare you, I'd like you to take lead on this investigation."
He then patted Roekil on his thick tough hide. "Good work also, Commander. Everyone was brought home safely thanks to you and your precautions."
With a nod of thanks to Lt. Vanquax he tapped his combadge. "Talbert to Marek, I'm on my way to the bridge unless you need me elsewhere." _________________

USS Guardian Turbolift
Captain Marek
"Talbert to Marek, I'm on my way to the bridge unless you need me elsewhere."
Marek tapped his combadge.
"Acknowledged, I await your report." Marek glanced at Lenara, who seemed content to follow him wherever he went. The turbolift doors opened and Marek stepped onto the bridge. He motioned for Lenara to sit at an empty console.
"Please do not keep the bridge crew from their duties." He then took the command chair from the watch officer. _________________

Talbert rode the turbolift to the bridge. When he exited he was surprised to see a strange individual sitting at a console seat near the science station. Daniels and others were alternating between their duties and the new information developing through the survey and science teams, and this...woman. Talbert eyed her curiously as he approached and stood before the command chair.
"Captain, I'm pleased to report that the away teams did well. No injuries, though there were a couple of incidents related to the cats. We've collected enough data to keep Lt. Surok busy for some time, and we have also recovered the alien ship. It is in the main shuttlebay."
A smile crossed his face and he said in a quiet voice: "Who's our new guest?" _________________

USS Guardian Bridge
Captain Marek
Marek nodded as Talbert spoke, then glanced back at Lenara as his voice lowered.
"I would prefer to have Mr. Roekil present so I do not have to repeat myself." Marek replied quietly to Talbert's request. _________________

Roekil exited the turbolift just as his name was mentioned. "Present sir." _________________

Talbert nodded and turned to Ensign Daniels.
"Mr. Daniels, please inform Commander Roekil he's requested on the bridge as soon as he's debriefed his teams."
With that he took his seat just as the Brikar exited the turbolift and came over.
"Belay that order, Mr. Daniels." he called. _________________

Marek turned towards Roekil.
"Excellent." He stood, turning to Ensign Daniels.
"Ensign Daniels, perhaps you would like to give Lenara here a tour of the bridge?" At the mention of her name, Lenara looked up and smiled. Before Daniels could even stammer out a response Marek turned to Roekil.
"Mr. Roekil, Mr. Talbert, if you will join me in the staff room." Marek strode purposefully off the bridge and into the staff room, taking a seat at one end of the table. _________________

Location: Bridge
Reporting as: Daniels
Daniels stood and motioned for the bridge watch officer to take his station. He approached Lenara and smiled uncertainly.
"Ummm...ah, well, that is....hello. Ma'am." He felt foolish. He'd met many women from dozens of races, but somehow this felt different and surreal.
"My name is Ensign Stephen Daniels. Would you like to, er, look around? Perhaps we could discuss any questions you may have." _________________

USS Guardian Bridge
Lenara
Lenara stuck out her hand.
"Hello Ensign Stephen Daniels, you are a communications officer, correct?"
OOC switched to violet, indigo is too hard to read on the blue background. _________________

"Yes'm, that is correct." He smiled at the smooth mannerisms and calm voice.
For the next several minutes Daniels explains the bridge layout to Lenara, pointing out science stations, communications arrays, and the main viewscreen's holographic technology. She asked precise questions, and Daniels was actually pleased to discuss programming issues for a brief time.
He paused and faced her. "Are there any specific questions or issues we have overlooked, Lenara?" _________________

Talbert walked back from the replicator, a steaming cup of strong coffee (he didn't like raktajino), in his hand.
He sat across from Roekil, and waited for the captain to speak. _________________

USS Guardian Staffroom
Captain Marek
Marek looks at both of his officers as they sit at the table then begins to speak once they have settled.
"Within minutes of your team returning to the surface, the device that had been brought up from the surface had opened. It appears that it is a stasis device. Inside was the 'woman' you both saw on the bridge. Preliminary data indicates it is an artificial lifeform. It claims to be possibly the last of it's kind." He paused, "Her language is quite complex, she could not translate her name to English, or Vulcan for that matter. She chose the name Lenara. I intend to give her every opportunity to prove herself, but Mr. Roekil, I want her to be watched. She has been issued a combadge, and a discrete security detail might be in order. It is my hope that we can welcome her to the Federation, just as if she was a representative of her entire race, not the last of her race." _________________
