=/\= SB 234 - Unity - Temporary Quarters =/\=
Athena looked around the temporary quarters. Every surface was as
bare as when it had been assigned to her. Two small bags that
contained her new clothes and a few personal items that she had
replaced, waited by the door. She rifled through all the drawers and
found that she had forgotten nothing. She gave the closet a once over
as well as she pulled the garment bag that held the wedding dress from
it. She hadn't left anything behind there either.
Laying the garment bag on the bed, she unzipped it. She ran her
fingers over the edge of the dress, {Maybe... I'll get to wear it....
eventually.} Quickly zipping the bag back up, she gathered the dress
and the rest of her things by the door and head for the new ship.....
the Chimera-C.
=/\= Docking Pylon C =/\=
{Interesting anomaly... pylon C and Chimera C} she thought as she
walked up to the security check point that one had to do to even place
a pinkie toe on the ship. A weary looking Lieutenant looked up
saying, "Commander, may I help you?"
"Commander Wellington requesting authorization to board the
Chimera-C," she responded almost as if on auto-pilot. {Obviously this
is becoming a habit and not a good one.}
The marine nodded and tapped a few keys and waited. His eyes popped
open at the information on the screen. "First name Athena," he asked.
"Yes." Her eyes looked up finding the pattern of the ceiling as she
waited for her clearance.
A few more tapping sounds. "Umm... Commander..." Athena's icy stare
levelly met the marine's as she raised an eyebrow in question to the
tone that was being used. "You are denied access," he paused and took
a deep breath before adding, "And it says you are to be searched."
"What?"
"Your access is denied and you are to be searched ... strip searched
actually," he said with more confidence than before.
"I decline the search and I suggest you call the Captain," Athena responded.
"I'm sorry Commander," the marine started as he walked toward Athena.
Instinctively her right fist came out and Met the marine's eyes before
she tapped her combadge.
+taps+ "Captain Rojac to Commander Wellington. I have a problem."
[Ready Room - Deck 1 - USS Chiemra-C]
Rojac had busied himself reading up on the incoming departmental
reports; and found himself interrupted in the middle of an article
describing the current state of the matter reclamation faculties
aboard.
"Rojac here." looking up to the ceiling as he replied. "I didn't know
you were aboard yet, commander."
+taps+ "I've been denied access."
"On whose orders is your authorization restricted?" Rojac queried over
her combadge.
+taps+ "I don't know but I refused to be stripped searched for
apparently no good reason."
"Hold on a minute while I sort this out, Athena." He said before
terminating the communication with a quick tap.
[Docking Pylon C - SB 234: UNITY]
Athena stared at the marine while he complied with the captain's request. She tapped her foot as she feigned a relaxed posture. She looked down at the outfit she was wearing wondering how much they could find concealed. The form fitting spaghetti strapped tank top and the black slacks that hugged her figure left little to no hiding spots. "Just what do you expect to find on me," she finally asked turning in a slow circle.
[Ready Room - Deck 1 - USS Chimera-B]
"Computer," Rojac queried, "display file on Commander Athena
Wellington." The computer beeped in acknowledgement, and quickly a file
appeared on Rojac's desktop. He double tapped it's image, and pulled
it closer to himself.
From this vantage point Rojac could see no outstanding reasons why her
access to the ship should be restricted. The only mark recently was her
jaunt over to Charos three with Captain Xerxes, but Roajc had already
dismissed that case.
"Computer, does Commander Wellington currently have access to the Chimera?"
[Negative.] The stoic, feminine voice replied.
"Override Rojac-Gamma-two-four. Allow Commander Athena Wellington,
Chief Counselor, access to the ship and facilities appropriate to her
rank and position." Rojac heard the soft feedback tone from the ship
before he tapped his combadge once more.
[Docking Pylon C - SB 234: UNITY]
+Rojac to Wellington. The situation has been resolved. You may board
at your leisure.+
+taps+ "Thank you and the problem was?"
+I'm not quite sure, but it has be remedied. At least for the time
being. Rojac out.+
+taps+ "Understood."

Athena looked back at the marine who never had a chance to answer her earlier question. He motioned to the ship as she picked up her bags.
[Ready Room - Deck 1 - USS Chimera-C]
"Rojac to Operations." He said over the comm.
+Operations here, Captain.+ Came the current operation bridge officer's reply.
"Commander Wellington had problems boarding the ship a moment ago.
Please have Lieutenant Reese look into the situation for me. I think
there may be some malfunction in the computer's security protocols."
+Aye sir. I will relay the message. Is there anything else?+
"Not yet. Rojac out." Rojac replied before ending the chat. He took in
a nice, deep breath before returning to his reading.
