The young woman made her way through the crowd with purpose… each step she took more determined then the previous.  It was easy to see that the redheaded Dabo girl had been on a mission, but the advantage of being a Dabo girl on a space station like the VALLA ROYAL was that people did not pay attention to her unless she wanted to.

Aki and ET had taken on the task to do a full personal history on the murdered Dabo girl that Captain Morningstar had mentioned during their briefing.  If their plan had any chance to work, both the COO and aCsciO would need to be fully aware of the slightest detail concerning the victim and her life.

The young woman stood silently by the deformed shape of what had once been an attractive and joyous girl… a person who had made the best of what life had thrown at her and still found it within her to smile.  No one deserved to die the way that she had… to have every shred of dignity stripped from her and to be left broken and unrecognizable.

With gloved hand...

The young woman cheered along with the rest of the gathered players and onlookers as the Dabo wheel stopped on a winning combination.  The role of the alluringly dressed redheaded had been to make people welcomed, comfortable, joyous in their winnings and most important daring in heir playing… and by the satisfied grin on the pit boss' lips; Samantha had been d...

The young woman made her way through the crowd with relaxed confidence, her attention drifting from store to store as she sampled only with her eyes items that she would likely add to her rapidly growing collection of dresses and outfits.  Every now and then the redhead would attract looks and even praises from some of the VALLA ROYAL's patrons which made her...

Aki had returned to her post and tried her best to keep her mind on the task at hand.  This had not been as easy as it had seemed given how many times the aCSciO had found herself looking at the COO instead of her instruments.  The words that he had said to her back in the Mess Hall kept resurfacing in spite of her efforts to leave things in the past.

ET had made it clear; he st...

The young woman casually strolled into the open dining area, an air of pure femininity encompassed her every move.  She paused for an instant as her gaze drifted upward to the impressive see-through dome which covered the dinning area and granted the patrons an unhindered view of the stars beyond.  The name of the restaurant had been very fitting; the distant t...

The young woman stepped into the living room, fresh from having taken a long and soothing sonic shower… the starlight from the nearby window seemed to make her fully exposed form radiate with a gentle glow only adding to the charms that the redhead already possessed.

"I think the VALLA ROYAL has rules against anyone looking *that* hot," a feminine voice playfully expr...

The young woman laid in the middle of her bed… motionless… at peace, or so it seemed.  For one reason or another, the body of the redhead had stopped responding to the turmoil that raged within her mind… maybe this had been an indication that the nightmare would soon end.

The young woman had travelled in her troubled sleep from one end of her bed to the other, tossing to the floor anything that had been in her way… how she had managed not to find herself on the floor alongside her pillows and sheets would likely remain one of this universe's great mysteries.

With the ship on its way to the VALLA ROYAL unseen and undetected thanks to their cloaking device, Aki had been able to address a most urgent need; breakfast.  Getting up early in the morning had never been an issue for the Asian woman, but the normal routine had been vast aside due to the urgency of getting their mission underway.

The aCSciO stood in front of the replicator, debating ...

The young woman had tossed and turned herself almost clear off her bed.  It was easy to see that there would be no rest for the redhead tonight… but then again she had not been able to rest, her nights having been filled with memories of lives long thought forgotten.

When Sabrina had left NEW ALEXANDRIA she had done so with the hopes of distancing herself from the ...

The young woman had not been able to find neither rest nor peace despite having come to this place under the shelter of a new identity.  The shapely Samantha, a Dabo girl who seemed to enjoy the joys and pleasures of the moment never thinking of tomorrow, hid a great many secrets from everyone around her… even herself.

Aki paused for a brief instant as she watched Ensign Thomas step through the doorway leading onto the command deck.  Things had gotten complicated during their last mission in so many different ways and the aCSciO had not been certain as to how to proceed from there.

It had been impossible to claim that nothing had happened during the year they had spent in another dimensio...
