Mission: Episode 3 - Winds of Change
Location: Bridge, USS Unification

Lieutenant Archibald Harrington materialized in the transporter room. He offered the technician at the console a smile, "Good day." Coming aboard the Unification felt liberating from the confines of the cramped quarters of the Defiant-class USS Telestro.

The technician replied with the pleasantries, "Good day and welcome aboard the Unification, Lieutenant. The XO has requested your presence aboard the bridge immediately."

Harrington nodded his head before heading to the bridge.

It was a good thing to be out of her office for once in a while, she couldn't wait until take-off so the bridge would finally be her primary station. As she noticed the Lieutenant approaching her she'd turn to the man.

"Hello Lieutenant Colonel," Harrington greeted her. "I'm Lieutenant Archibald Harrington, Chief Flight Control Officer. Reporting aboard, as ordered. Sir."

"Ah yes" Elena said with a nod and she rose from her chair and walked to the Lieutenant and extended a hand. "Welcome to the new Unification Lieutenant"

"Indeed, welcome," said Jacob as he stood up to greet the new officer.

He shook the Colonel's hand until the Captain stood up. For a moment he didn't recognize him but it was the gentleman he shared frank words with on board the station. "Thank you, Captain and Lieutenant Colonel for the welcome."

"How do you like the look of the new ship?" asked the Captain. "I know you were not on the old Unification, but a Nebula class is certainly alot larger than a Defiant class."

"It's certainly a lot more roomier," Archibald commented.

Elena smiled "Personally I do think bunks have something special about them, but the additional space does have its advantages" She said. "I take it you will have no problems fitting in with a new crew?"

"None whatsoever, Colonel."

Jacob looked to the Lieutenant. "Glad to hear it."

Elena nodded "Well then, good to have you Lieutenant. Please feel free to take your station"

"Aye Colonel," Harrington sat at the controls and began to lay them out to his personal preferences.
