Chichire was a astounded by how big the ship was and was already lost. All the other ships she had been on someone was standing by to show her around the ship. Luckily she found a room called the Ten Forward. As she walked in the first thing that caught her eye was a very nice grand piano. Almost without realizing it she pounced over to it sat down and started playing Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven. Just as she started she lost sight around her and was in complete ecstasy.

Sam had been sitting at a table, enjoying a cup of chamomile tea. When she saw the new officer start to play she walked over to her and listened. "That was beautiful," she said when the Caitian was finished.

Chichire turned around with shock that there was someone else in here then she remberied she never checked the room to see if anyone was there. As they looked at the woman she realized she was the commander jumped up. She quickly strode across the room to the commander stood at attention. "Hello my ma'am. I'm Corporal Chichire Shintaku reporting in to my new post ma'am. I'm sorry for not coming straight to you but sadly I got lost on the ship and I'm a little embarrassed about it. Is there anything you would like to know about myself or would you like me to play another song it my way to break the ice?"

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Corporal," Sam said, chuckling. "Don't worry about reporting to me. I like meeting all new crew, but once you settle in, you should report to Captain Raine. He's the Marine CO aboard the Calypso." Sam grinned. "You're welcome to play another piece before you go."

"Roger. It was a pleasure to meet you as well and i hope we get together so i can play more for you. By the way could you show or tell me where I might find him so I can report to him and get settled in after I finish the new song, which is Fur Ellis . Chichire walked back to the piano and began playing Fur Ellis for the commander and then walked back to commander to get the information . " Well I hope you liked that song as well. It is one of my favorite's songs by Beethoven "

"I did," Sam replied. "It was beautiful." She handed Chichire a PADD. "There's a map of the ship on here, with directions to the Marine deck. Deck 14 if you get lost. Damon's office is on the PADD as well. If you get lost, touch the strip on the side of the corridor and ask for directions. The computer will guide you." She led the Caitian into the corridor and demonstrated how a light on the wall lit up and guided her to the turbolift. "Just follow that, go to deck 14 and follow the light to the Marine CO's office," Sam assured her.

"Well you have been a very big help and I'm very sorry if have wasted your time I'm sorry if you need me at all or would like to just have me play the piano some more just give me a shout .I find it a very good way to relive some stress I will talk to you later then" Chichire walk to the turbo lift and followed the commanders instructions to the tee .She thought to herself along the way this is going be a lot better than all the other ships I just hope everyone is as nice as her.
