Timeline: 3 Hours Before Leaving For SB 113
Ens T'ren had just arrived from (a shuttle/Beam in) and was looking for Rear Admiral Reacher. Two medical officers showed her the way, as she smiled and nodded her head, thanking the two officers for showing her the ready room. She took off her Bajoran earring and put it in the pocket of her Starfleet pants, as jewelry from different species was forbidden to wear.
She got to the Ready Room door as she rang the chimes so the Admiral could let her come in.
She looked around the ship area where she was in the ready room to get her bearings.
"Enter," Jack yelled out.
Ens T’ren walked into the ready room and announced herself to Rear Admiral Reache. Nala looked straight at him attentively. “Security Officer, Ens Nala T’ren reporting for duty, sir.” She said, looking at him standing at attention, and not saying much more after that. Not saying a Thing unless spoken to…
"Welcome, Please Sit," Jack told her. He grabbed a cup of coffee. "Would you like a Cup of Coffee?"
Nala looked at the Rear Admiral and said, “No, sir. I would like hot tea with lemon.” She sat down, maintaining a stern expression as she studied the Rear Admiral’s face. As she felt an itch on her Bajoran nose, she wrinkled it slightly and rubbed it. After a moment, she looked up at him and added, “Thank you, sir.” Nala gave a slight grin as she waited for her tea.
Jack stopped. And studied her for a moment. "Ensign, Your to answer this question honestly, or you're gonna have some problems. Did you ever fight the Cardassians on Bajor?"
Nala looked at the captain. “Yes, Si,r and proud y,” she said in great honor of remembering helping with other Bajorans to help keep Bajor for Bajorans. “ Those Cardi Spoon heads were a force to
Take over Bajor, we didn’t want them to have Bajor, sir.”
"Figures, you're not used to the Command Authority. Tell me about yourself, Ensign," Reacher told them.
Nala looked Rear Admiral Reacher over, “Sir, I was in the Bajoran Militia fighting for Bajor.
Over the Cardi spoon heads, it wasn’t just me; I was with other Bajoran fighters, so I wasn’t alone. A few other Bajorans and I were an army together to fight. We never gave up, we fought for Bajor like I said. Before I and others fought mightily Hard, sir.
I was born and raised a Bajoran freedom fighter.
"Understood. Do you have any questions for me, Ensign?" Reacher asked.
