The sky was a crystal blue, bearly a cloud in the sky, and those clouds looked as if they were placed there simply to enhance the beauty of the day, or, atleast that was how most saw it. For Cadet Jennifer Kressenger, a very beautiful red husky with shoulder length hair in a cadet uniform, it was simply another day, in fact, for her, it would be the most important day, the day her class transfered to one of the three Space Rover ships for six months of field training before graduation, her make or break if she was going to be a Space Rover, and for her, it had to be the most nerver wracking time she had been through in her time at the Academy.

(Raksha)*Slight German accent* I'm sorry miss!

He bends down and picks up the supplies he dropped. Flustered and mumbling still nervous as a pole cat in a room full of rocking chairs. He shakes his head, so clumsy, on his first day. What would his father think?

(Raksha) I don't mean to be so clumsy... I'm really very sorry, I'm very nervous.

He helps her up, giving a weak smile and brushing off the imaginary dust on his uniform yet again.

----------------------------

Meanwhile:

Kaori sighed and pushed a lock of silver hair out of her delicate wolfish face. Her ears twitched around nervously, a few other students were ataring at her, and she knew why, she was the daughter of of the ambassader of the Nimirian empire, an empire known for it's violence and cruelty, the way it took over worlds, slaughtered and tortured it's defeated enemies and it's merciless grip on those few planets they had not destroyed. The wolflike race of aliens certainly had a bad reputation, but, much a contrary to that, Kaori Kitaryn was an extremly gentle, and caring soul, she had been sent here to keep good relations with the Space Rovers, the ambassador's youngest daughter, he had surrendered her to this duty because, in his mind, she was the least important of his children, being the weakest, and the smallest. She had lived on the ship for two years now, under the care of a couple onboard the ship Galatea.

(Kaori) They must think I'm about to just open up and fire a volley of laser beams....

Kaori was of less than average height, which was rather unusal because the Nimir were known for being rather tall, some exeeding 8 feet in height, the males at least, she had shimmering straight silver hair that fell to mid back, a delicate china doll feature, snow white fur with small gray dots just above her eyes, and beautiful golden colored eyes that glowed shyly, a lot of life shining within their deep golden depths. She growled as a few male cadets passed by her and sneered, making passes at her before they turned around and spoke cruelly of her, her sensitive ears picking up conversations a half mile away. A small blue flame mark on her forehead, her mark of royal blood, glowed slightly and her eyes flashed.

(Male students) Whoo, how much do I have to pay for her?

Nimirian scum, God, it makes me sick who or 'what' they will let pass these days.

Kaori smirks and uses some of her granted mental powers to move a bucket in front of the boys, the first one tripped over it and the second boy landed on top of him, the bucket flew threw the air and landed on one of the boys head, both soaked by the water that was in the bucket.

(Kaori) Bai boys.... Komo dala dien, mes tala kin dan...

Her bushy tail brushes over their faces as she walks by. Both boys look at eachother in shock. She laughs and makes her way around.

(Boy1) Uhh....did she just put a curse on us?

(Boy2) Bitch....

The few cadets that spoke some amount of Nimirian looked at Kaori in shock at what she had just said. She stops in her tracks and turns her head around at the boys. She smirks and lifts an eyebrow.

(Kaori) Ienkaas mana ein yavtar. Halen gav... jintar, novati! *she nods her head, and remembers something* No, wait a second...
Shove it up your arse you.... sal-afsan.

The few cadets that understood stared at her in utter shock and moved on to their respective places, mostly in fear that she would carry out what she had just said. In truth, Kaori wouldn't think of doing such things to anyone or anything. She just lost her temper from time to time, and even then she didn't get so mad that she was a hazard to anyone.

(Kaori) This sucks....I wish I at least had someone to talk to... Someone who doesn't....ugh nevermind, one can only hope that out of the spoils of modern civilization, there is at least one one tender soul is is willing to look past one's extrerior and see the being inside. But ugh... then again, tis too much to hope for, at least in this plane of existence... *scoffs* I'm being way too philisophical.

(Warrior, typing, talking outloud): Here's the list of the Cadets shipping out on the Challenger. Interesting ...Jennifer Kressenger... hmmmm... very high marks... I know Captain Boomer and Commander Saundra will be pleased to add her to their crew... (types more): Raksha... high marks... son of a current Space Rover officer... impressive indeed! (types more): Kaori Kataryn... also an exceptional student... a Nimirian... I hope Boomer and Saundra can teach her to keep her temper in check... (types more): And now... (shocked): WHAT!!! Cadet Moonbeam??? That can't be right! That crazy Malamute has no business... (types)... Impossible! His grades are average, he's been under disciplinary action several times and ....

**** As Warrior continues to type, Moonbeam, the Belgian Malamute, sneaks into the office, dressed in his very loud Hawaiian shirt, torn jeans and wearing a gold chain with a large peace sign on it around his neck. He grins widely as he watches Warrior grumbling as he types ****

(Moonbeam): Yo, daddyo!

(Warrior, shocked, looks up): Cadet Moonbeam! How did you get past my secretary?

(Moonbeam): Hey, I'm GOOD, what can I say?

(Warrior, upset): Here's what I say! If you think for one minute I'm going to let a wild, undisciplined, average recruit like you join a Space Rover crew then....

(Moonbeam, big grin): Too late, big guy! I'm already on the transfer roster, the Master has approved it and ...

(Warrior): Wait, how did YOU know... (growls): You hacked our school computer! That's the only way...

(Moonbeam): Yo, you got nothin' on me! You need evidence to convict, pal!

(Warrior furious): Give me one good reason why I shouldn't throw you out of this Academy! First, you put that red food dye in the swimming pool, then you set the faculty toilets to explode, then you...

(Moonbeam, smiles): Yo, you need to loosen up, have some fun in life...

(Warrior furious): You're worse than Cadet Dayton was! Now there was a troublemaker... he...

**** Before he says another word, Warrior thinks about how Dayton left the Academy when he joined the Galatea. A big grin crosses his face when he realizes that this was his opportunity to get Moonbeam out of his Academy ****

(Moonbeam): Yo Warrior, are you alright?

(Warrior, softer tone): Well, who am I to argue with the roster. Report to the Challenger at the appointed time, and good luck to you!

(Moonbeam, smiles): Catch ya later, big guy!

**** When Moonbeam leaves his office, Warrior jumps up from behind his desk and tosses a big stack of papers into the air ***

(Warrior shouting): HOORAY!!! I GOT THAT TROUBLEMAKER OUT OF MY FUR FOREVER!!!!!

**** Meanwhile, at another part of the Academy, Tammy (border collie) & Zac (GSD) from South Africa chat with their newest classmate, Maria, a brown retriever from Argentina ****

(Tammy): Hokaii! This is so exciting! Imagine, all three of us serving aboard the Challenger!

(Zac): Ja! Just think, our first permanent Road Rover assignments!

(Maria): Si! I've never been so excited since my days out on the pampas with my master!

(Tammy): Zac and I will be working in security, but we've also been trained in navigation, helm and communications

(Maria): I have to work in the science division, with some on the job training in engineering also

(Zac): I can hardly wait!

(Moonbeam, walks over): Yo gang, look at me, I'm goin' on this little pleasure trip with ya!

(Tammy): Pleasure trip?

(Maria): Working on a Space Rover vessel is hard work, not child's play!

(Moonbeam): Aw! It's no sweat! You fly from planet to planet, studying rocks and stars, no big deal..

(Zac): You have much to learn, Moonbeam!

(Moonbeam): All I know is, I'm gonna get me some space babe and settle down somewhere.. grow organic foods and enjoy nature!

(Maria, shakes head): Aye yi yi....

(Jennifer) It's all right Raksha, erm, I do, appreciate the hand in standing though.

Just then, Jennifer sees two girls walking towards her and her bushy tail begins to sway a little faster as she zzeros in on her two best friends at the academy, the Nimirian Kaori and the mix Breezily. Problem never an od group as they were, they were still as close as sisters, well, atleast in Jennifer's mind they were. She excused herself from Raksha with what she hoped was athankful smile, and came up to her friends.

(Jennifer) Todays the day huh?

Breezily(english accent):Yeah,you bet it is.*The mix's teal tipped floppy ears twinged at the sound loudspeaker.*

*Domino Sanhusky smirked as he fell in behind two females,a brindle boxer and a dubious looking mix.The shih tzu-siberian husky mix prepared to tap the mix on her shoulder,but planned on hitting on the both of them,but then mix whirled around suddenly and glared at him.*

Whisper: Don't EVEN think about it, Domino.*The medium buildt white and black dog stopped short and stared at Whisper.Her friend,Streetsmart,had also turned to look at Domino,grinning.*

Whisper:I'm psychic,remember?*She and Streetsmart continued walking to the central courtyard,leaving the still startled Domino behind.Suddenly,someone walks into Domino from behind.*

Voice(italian accent):Hey!Why don't you watch it!*Domino turned around to see who it was.*

All of his helm and navigation training led up to this. He entered the courtyard where those transferring to starship were gathering. He passed a pair of snickering cadets as he neared the others.

(Cadets, German accents): Hey look at the cute litte poodle! C'mere, foo foo! What a little girly dog!

Damien says nothing, but simply sweeps his right leg around, knocking one of the cadets from his feet. He roughly grabs the fallen cano's shirt in his fist.

(Damien, French accent angry): If you ever make a comment like zat again I vil... how do zee americans put it... clean your clock! Comprendez vous, mon ami...?

The other cadet nods weakly as Damien lets go of him, continuing toward the other cadets with a triumphant smirk on his muzzle.

Ferret(annoyed,italian accent):I'm not any pushover,if that's what you are thinking.

Like a certain Nimirian,this ferret had also recieved some flack from the other cadets,because she was seemingly the only non-canine who had joined the Space Rover roster.Her parents had told her to always stand up for herself,and she made a vow to herself not to take any abuse from the bullies.

Domino(huffy):Ease up,girl.I'm not gonna bother you.I have better things to do anyways.

Ferret:So do I.Now get out of my way,I have to report to the courtyard.And my name's not girl,it's Christabella Ciccio.

Streetsmart,the boxer,watched Damien,smiling to herself.He sorta reminded her of herself....

The husky shook her self off, realizing that in a few moments, she would be aboard an honest to goodness starship, not some simple shuttle hope for the piloting training program she had enrolled in, an actual star-faring vessel!! and not just any one, she was the newest of the three ships, SRS Challanger under Captain Boomer, the ship was the second of her class, benifiting from experiences of the Canus Minor, and the advances Galatea had prototyped. Jennifer could wait to get aboard, and as she looked at Breesily, the normally cool mix was as excited as her.

It was then that Jennifer saw one other cadet ambling onto the court yard. She groaned in disapointment. Moonbeam!?!? That was all she needed. While Damien had atleast been polite, and, hofully taking a hint from Jennifer's own polite rejection, Moonbeam just couldn't take the hint that Jennifer was not interested in him. What was worse, he couldn't have been less of a gentlemen about his passes, or atleast in Jennifer's mind, who had never been exposed to the 'Sailor attitude' of picking up dates.

"Commandant! I have some thing you really need to see." He says and hands the notepad to the Commandat.
"This is a personel file of a teacher that is going to be transfered here soon and I strongly sugest that you view this right away."

SR Official Personel File.
Name: Jhonathan Knight
Age: 45
Rank: Lt.Commander
Position: Theacher
Specialaties: Ethics, Philosofy, Combat.
Recomendations: Admire Shun-Lee, sienctific department.
Captain Shalec, Medical depatment.
Admire Ranson, inteligens department.

Ranesko waited after the Commendat had read the file and layed it on his desk before he continued. "Seems fine dosent it? And the recomendations are impressive but when I run a bacround test on him turns out that he used to be a criminal that is now on somekind of rehabilitation program. And when I say criminal I don't mean some small timer. His name used to be Night aka The Black Rose."

The last words had an affect on Warrior and he looked starit at Ranesko. "The name rings a bell?" Ranosko asked but didn't wait for an anser "This is the guy who ruled the headlines in 2003. The most feared mafia hitman and he allmost destroyed the entire Road Rover organication. And now he is coming to teache etichs and philosofy here?"

He soon catches himself in mid-sentence and "rephrases" his last comments.

(Damien, Egotistic) Err... I mean... I knew I'd get through, they'd be fools not to assign Damien Rousseax!

(Laughs) Ah, but who am I kidding... I was lucky to pass... All those science courses, bah! I am a helm officeur, not a biologist!

He puts the diagram in his pocket as he waits with the others to be beamed aboard.

Kaori: I guess... ugh, some people, I can't stand it sometimes. Hey Jenn, Breeze? How long do you think it's going to take for Moonbeam to get kicked off Challenger anyway? *she chuckles somewhat, although she didn't particuraly like Moonbeam she thought he was kind of cute in his own way.*

She flicks her golden eyes over to Cadet Raksha Wolfspitz, he looks at her and smiles, he walks over to them. She waves and smiles to the big Keeshond, his icy gray blue ringed eyes sparkle somewhat in mirth, though he still looked extremly nervous. Kaori lays a hand on his shoulder.

Kaori: Don't worry, you'll do fine Rak.

Raksha: Yeah, I guess, I don't know Kaori.

He brushed his long black hair out of his eyes and sighed, the big keeshond was normally very steely nerved, but in this case, he was so caught up in reaching his father's approval he looked more like a nervous cat in dog's clothing, his tail swishing back and forth tensly.

Kaori smiles and takes her hand off his shouder, she turns to Breezily and Jennifer. A big smile is etched across her muzzle.

Kaori: Jenn, you already know Rak. Breezily, this is Raksha Wolfspitz.

Raksha rsises an eyebrow and blushes somewhat in his dark gray and brown fur. He raises a paw shyly.

Raksha: *German accent* Heya, I guess.

His eye flicker over to the poople and he smiles, he always loved a good prank, he chuckled somewhat. Kaori gave him a cross look.

Kaori: Please tell me you think that's funny.

(Saundra): Yes it is, my love! But we have to go over these crew transfer files.

Those thoughts disapeared as the hum of the transporter effect echoed into the courtyard and two figures materialized, each in their late twenties/early thirties, one was a tall, musculerly slim grayhound, the other a quite beautiful cocker-spaniel.

Damien chuckles a bit at Whisper and Breezily's apology. He takes a grandoise bow, returning to his somewhat overconfident and headstrong self.

(Damien): Apology accepted, mes amis. So, what will you be doing on this ship we've heard so much about? Like I've said, I can take either the helm or navigation consoles, depending on where my talents are needed most.

He throws a glance toward Moonbeam with a small smirk. The two had been rivals in the art of causing mayhem within the academy. He knew it would be interesting to see how the rivalry played out in space.
