Paikea had just met with a fellow cadet named William Hunter. He seemed nice enough, but Paikea was a bit reserved he could never fully trust a person. It seemed that William wanted to find his quaters, but to be honest Paikea was lost to, but would never admit it to anyone.
Once William said he wanted to go the bakery, Paikea's face lit up. He had heard of this famous bakery on Starbase Conqueror. The bakery had a picture of every graduating cadet class and of their instructors. As they walked into the bakery, Paikea couldn't help but feel a tad bit homesick. The smell of fresh bread brought back home of his mother and her cooking. The smell also made him remember of the everything his culture stood for. Before he had left he had gotten his tribal tatoo on his arm, something that made his father very proud. As he walked in he saw those famous protraits on the wall. There were many of them, but Paikea did notice that some were a lot smaller than others.
As William walked towards the counter, Paikea walked to the pictures. The first one he saw was that of the USS Hanson and there most recent graduating class. Paikea had heard of that mission, and was glad that he wasn't excepted yet because he didn't feel he could of done as good as those cadets did.
"Do you want something?" William said as he sat down to eat what he had in his hand.
"Yeah sure," Paikea said as he went to the counter and ordered some fresh bread. After taking the bread he sat next to William and started talking.
Off: Hey guys I couldn't help but mention my last graduating class we did rock. By the way all other cadets please post here or make other threads until the Hepta goes on mission.

Willaim have just eat his bread and a cup of coffee. He walk to the wall and look at the pictures. He look for the picture of the graduating class from his Father. He graduating from the Academy as a Marines. Willaim walk back to the seat. "I can't find the picture of my father. When begin the mission on the USS Hepta"William said.

Kati stepped off the transport craft and looked around. She began looking around her new surroundings trying to take it all in.
As she walked around the starbase she happened across a bakery that was busy. Smelling the aroma coming from the bakery she decided to press forward into the bakery. Setting her bag down on the ground she adjusted her pony tail. Standing in the enterence she looked around the room hoping she might find somebody she knew.

Paikea couldn't help, but love seeing the history that was on the wall. He also saw the picture of Section 47 first Section Admiral Tettres Hepta and of those that followed in her footsteps.
"Hey William lets sit down," Paikea said as he took a seat next to the old fashioned tv set. Paikea saw that a new cadet had just entered the bakery. He didn't know her, but knew that they would most likely end up on the Hepta since the Hanson was still away on a mission. Paikea then decided that he would get something to eat, but saw that there was a line. He didn't really mind, but he hadn't realized how fast the bakery filled up.
Paikea being as curious as a cat couldn't resist talking to the new cadet that was in front of him.
"Hello my name is Cadet 4th Class Paikea, nice to meet you," Paikea said with his most charming smile he could muster.

Her cheeks blushed as her light blue eyes met his eyes.
"Nice to meet you Paikea, my name is Katie Anderson. I think you can see that I just got here."

Paikea didn't let it show, but when he saw her eyes he got red hot.
Nice to meet you Paikea, my name is Katie Anderson. I think you can see that I just got here."
"So did I, so why did you join Starfleet and Section 47?" Paikea asked the attractive Cadet. Paikea and Katie started talking about what they had gone through to get here.
"Excuse me do you want anything?" the clerk asked. They bothed laughed as they realized that they were the only people left in the line.
"Would you like to sit with us?" Paikea asked Katie as he pointed to William.

"I joined because my family has always been apart of Starfleet. I specifically wanted to be at Section 47 because I want to explore and find new things. I think that sounds pretty corney, but it is something I find to be wonderful."
"Excuse me do you want anything?" the clerk asked.
She covered her mouth as she laughed along with Paikea.
"What, uh, what do you suggest I try?" She asked.
<Paikea>
Would you like to sit with us?" Paikea asked Katie as he pointed to William.
"Uh," She said looking at Paikea again, "I would like that."

"What, uh, what do you suggest I try?" She asked.
"Well it all depends what you are in the mood for, but I recommend the groatcake with some squill syrup," Paikea said. Katie gave him a look of confusion. "I take it you have never heard of it."
"No I have not," Katie said blushing a little.
"Well its a Bajoran breakfast food and the squill syrup is a special import that this bakery gets from DS9 and a Ferengi named Quark," Paikea explained.
"Okay I'll try it," Katie said. Paikea hoped that she liked it because it was his favorited alien dish. Paikea was glad that Katie decided to sit with William and himself.
"William this is Katie Anderson, Katie this is William Hunter," Paikea said as the two shaked hands.
"So you said your parents were members of Starfleet," Paikea said. Katie nodded her head and started to explain a bit more about herself.

"Yes, my entire family has been involved with Starfleet. My parents live and work in San Francisco. My oldest brother is aboard the USS Titan, and my middle brother is stationed on Mars. I am the baby." She said beaming.
Katie looked at her dish and smiled as she cut off a small piece.
"You better have picked out something good." She said give Paikea a smirk as she quickly ate the small piece.
She was surprised to find the dish to be very good.
"It's to die for!" She announced a bit loud, sinking down in her chair a little embarrassed.
"So, William, when did you get here?" She asked not wanting to keep him out of the conversation.

"I am sorry to hear that." She said sympathetically.
She took another bite of her dish and enjoyed every second of it.
"What about you Cadet?" She said to Paikea with a heavy flirt in her voice, "Why are you here?"

"Yes, my entire family has been involved with Starfleet. My parents live and work in San Francisco. My oldest brother is aboard the USS Titan, and my middle brother is stationed on Mars. I am the baby." Paikea hoped that he could feel the same about his family. They were vehemetly angry at Paikea for leaving their New Zealand village.
It just didn't call Paikea anymore. He loved his homeland, but he had a yearning that just couldn't be explained. When the USS Voyager returned from the Delta Quandrant, he knew he wanted to join Starfleet. He wanted to see the galaxy. His emerald green eyes started to tear a little at the thought of his family, but this was for himself and nothing would stop him.
"So, William, when did you get here?" She asked not wanting to keep him out of the conversation. Paikea then came to realize that he was ignoring the first person he had met here and that was something that didn't sit right with him.
Paikea and Katie both listened to what William had to say about his family and came to realized that family was very important to each of them. Paikea felt bad when William told them that he had lost his father nine years ago, but it seemed that William always kept his father in his mind and heart.
Paikea's stomach started to bother him, the squill syrup was making his mouth water. So he got up and went to the counter and brought back 3 more groatcakes for everyone else.
"Don't worry its not fattening," Paikea said laughing as he saw that Katie was a bit nervous to start eating another one. The entire group started laughing at that and continued talking.

"Another one!" She said with a bit of excitement.
Don't worry its not fattening," Paikea said laughing.
She gave Paikea a quick dirty look before she finally cracked and laughed along with the group.
"I have had to work hard for my figure." She said adjusting her uniform. She noticed Paikea had taken a quick look as her uniform top formed more closely to her chest as she adjusted her uniform.
"What are you guys up to after lunch here?" She asked, "I hope to try and find my quarters. Have you two found yours?"

Paikea was happy to learn more about his fellow cadet. He hoped that one day he would meet Willam's mother.
"I have had to work hard for my figure." She said adjusting her uniform. Paikea couldn't help but look at Katie's direction. She was a very attractive women and he hoped that she didn't notice his staring.
"What are you guys up to after lunch here?" She asked, "I hope to try and find my quarters. Have you two found yours?"
"No I can't find my quarters. Isn't it on deck 27" William said realizing what they were here for first.
"Well I know that we're going to be close by, all cadet quarters are next to each other," Paikea said hoping that his quarter would be next to William, but especially if it was Katie.
"Well then guys do you want to go find our quarters," Paikea asked, " well after I finish with my groatcake." At that comment the little group burst out laughing.

"Let me check the location of mine." She said going through her bag pulling out her orders. "Would you look at that," She smiling, "Deck 27. Room 901." She looked at Paikea and William who were both still enjoying the goatcake. "Oh my god, I totally forgot!" Kaite said a bit loud, "I told my mom I would 'call' her when I got in. I'm sorry guys I have to go. If you guys are going to do anything tonight, why don't you come by my place." Katie got up quickly, grabbed her bag and hurried out of the bakery. Sorry guys, I have to get going. We can continue this later on.

William look at the other cadets and said "Sorry for my english, my parents come from Russia.". He smiled to Katie and Paikea.
"Don't worry about it William, we understand. You should of heard me two months ago and the accent I had," Paikea said hoping that he didn't offend William.
"Oh my god, I totally forgot!" Kaite said a bit loud, "I told my mom I would 'call' her when I got in. I'm sorry guys I have to go. If you guys are going to do anything tonight, why don't you come by my place."
Katie got up quickly, grabbed her bag and hurried out of the bakery.
"Thats okay Katie, me and William will look for our quarters," Paikea said memorizing her room number.
"Well I guess its time for us to start looking for our quarters," William said jokingly. Paikea didn't really here him and William noticed.
"World to Paikea, world to Paikea," William said as he softly punched Paikea on the arm. "I know she cute, but she isn't a goddess you know."
"Yeah sure," Paikea said knowing that to him she was one of the loveliest beings he had ever seen. "Well lets go look for our rooms, William."

Paikea at that moment felt really stupid. How could he forget the PADD that the welcome officer had given him when he came on board the Conqueror. He went into his duffel bag and took it out.
He hoped that his room read 902 Deck 27, but it read 904 Deck 27. It wasn't next to both of them, but he was really really close so it would be alright.
"Well William lets go, I have to go to class tomorrow," Paikea said.
"Class?" William asked.
"Yeah I'm taking the Omega theory class," Paikea said," but I wouldn't mind having a little bit of fun before classes starts." William smirked at that comment, but Paikea just gave a mischievous smile.

OK, I am back after some quick running around.
Katie found her quarters quicker than she expected. Checking her room number she pressed her pad up to the door pad hoping it would open it. It didn't.
She looked around and asked the first person she saw for help. After a few moments of explanation the kind man departed and left Katie to finish opening up the door.
I guess security is tough around here, she thought. Stepping into her quarters she was stunned by how big they were. She clearly was not expecting the size of these quarters. She dropped her bag off on the first chair she came up to, sitting in the next chair she took off her boots to get more comfortable.
She then walked over to the communication wall panel and opened a channel to her mom's office on earth. He mom appeared moments later.
"Hello dear." Katie's mom said.
"Hi mom."
"How was the trip? I bet that starbase is wonderful."
"It was an okay trip. The starbase is wonderful though."
"Have you gotten the chance to meet any body yet?"
"There is this boy." Katie said looking away from her mom.
"Tell me about him." Her mother said sounding very eager to hear more.

Paikea and William had quickly made thier way towards thier quarters. Paikea couldn't believe they had not been able to find them. As they passed Room 901, Paikea couldn't help but wonder if Katie was in there. He would check later.
"So here is my room," William said as they reached room 903.
"Well William I'll talk to you later," Paikea said as he walked towards his room which he just noticed was across from William's room. I guess I will be closer than I thought Paikea thought.
Paikea quickly entered his room, noting that he didn't forget his clearance code, but forgot the PADD that told him how to get there. He was surprised to see how large his room was. He just placed his duffle bag on the floor and wrote a letter to his mom and tell her about the people he had met today.
