User:Niev Galanis/Sandbox
Receiving your posting and gathering with your family before departing at Starfleet Academy's Presidio Campus was practically a rite of passage for cadets. It was no different for Niev Galanis - even their parents had made the trip from Alpha Centauri IV to be there. After all, not many cadets were lucky enough to graduate so close to Frontier Day. Though Niev had been assigned to Amity Outpost, light-years away from anything familiar, they said their goodbyes and stepped on the transporter to the mighty Probert Station in high spirits.
Unfortunately for Niev, a chance encounter with then-Captain Roshanara Rahman and Major Hannibal Parker in one of the transporter rooms would derail the Centauran's expectations, delay their posting at Amity Outpost indefinitely, and leave them in circumstances that had seemed unthinkable just a few minutes before.
They say every ensign has a horror story about their first day. But surrounded by strangers and faced with a terrible revelation that may put the fate of Starfleet itself at stake, Niev was going to have to use every bit of their Academy training and then some if they wanted to live to tell theirs...
