"I wouldn't do this sir," said the Romulan Security Officer and looked at the tall Cardassian standing near him.

"He wouldn't be able to!" Ocett thought. Ocett through that they would have never given Chief T'Rana this chance. They had never given somebody like him this chance. But Ocett was For some reasons he has always been somebody special. He thought back to his time at the academy when he was admired by the new students and respected by the teachers. It has been said that he was the one of the best officers in the fleet and a legend to become.

"But his times are gone." he thought when he passed the air lock and looked into the face of the Starfleet Security Officer. The young man hesitated before telling Ocett and T'Rana that the Commander should arrive in about a minute.

A few seconds later the Commander arrived and apologized but a emergency needed his attention. "You can return to the ship" said Ocett to the Romulan. It was obviously that T'Rana wanted to leave the station as soon as possible. After the air lock closed behind him the Commander and Ocett walked to the guest quarters where his rooms should be prepared for him. After the Human has showed him every thing he left and Ocett was alone once more.

"Computer" he said. "Transmit message to the following Coordinates on the following frequency."

"Ready for dictation of message" the computer acknowledged.

After transmitting the message he took a shower and changed his cardassian uniform into the new Federation uniform. "Feels strange", he thought while walking to the turbo elevator, "a lot things will look strange to me in the next weeks. I have never served with humans and I don't understand all their habits. It will take time to get use to."

A few minutes later he played pool with his old opponent Captain Stark form the U.S.S. Washington. His prognoses concerning the habits of the starfleet officers where with the exception of a few points correct. The looked at him as if he was a Klingon targ with 7 legs and a communicator on the top of his ears. But he wondered that they didn't treat him with disrespect. It was a new feeling to been looked as if he was some kind of curiosity. Once he even thought he saw a Caitian looking at him, he thought that this must be the Security Chief of the LaGrange. He has read all the crew reports many times. A very interesting combination of brilliant officers and multiple personalities to say it in simple words a crew with a great future to come.

After Captain Stark has lost 2 games she allowed him to return to his quarters. She used his new position to take a bit of revenge for the things he did during their service aboard the U.S.S. Dukat. But he wouldn't give her a chance to do so. He walked to the turbo lift and decided that he should talk to the captain about his wife when they have cleared the station and wouldn't be reachable for any superior officers. Would she belive his story and much more important would she betray him ore would she try to help him and his family? During a mission aboard the Dukat he had got the message that his wife has been brought to the research centers of the Abran-system for testings. His father has tried to stop them but he wasn't able to, because with the fall of the Central Command all his friends at the military were executed, but he was able to transmit this message to his son.

"We are not like the others" he thought,"we never were but we were able to cover it. But now it is to late with the pregnancy of Duran every thing is about to change. We will be treaten like outcasts and they will look at us as if we were shadows from the past."

When he walked to bed all his thoughts were with his wife and mother to come. Before he was able to sleep his entire body started to hurt and started glow. The last words he said before he felt unconscious were "Not again".
