<nowiki>::</nowiki>The corridors of the Roninwere a hive of activity: technicians from the station were everywhere, wall panels lay on the floor, conduits were exposed and power cables snaked across the carpet. Everywhere he looked men and women were busy. Jarod Kolk had only managed to push his way about five feet past the docking ramp before a crewman in a Security man's colors gave him a hard time. He was sick and tired of Security people. Ever since his cat had gone missing a few months ago, they'd been nothing but patronizing. And the more time he spent on that bloody station, with the unreliable turbolifts and the parents who were too busy to take part in their children's education... He missed Earth.

<nowiki>::</nowiki>Little 11-year-old Jarod watched his father's hands as the man told him and his 6-year-old sister how he re-routed power with these buttons here and switched from high-yield to low-yield photon torpedoes with those. Samantha, of course, was fascinated despite the fact that she probably didn't have a clue what her father was talking about. Jarod, on the other hand, was just glad to be able to spend time with his father. The man was always working, especially since the raids started about six months ago. Mum was scared, and Dad was always at work, which meant that Jarod was left to try and keep her from crying as much as baby Jack did. There hadn't been a raid in over a week, though, so things were getting better. To give Mum and the Baby some peace, Dad had decided to take Sam and Jarod to work with him. There wasn't likely to be another Cardassian raid, "the Commodore had sorted that all out with their government" ...whatever that meant. Of course, when the station shook softly and Samantha screamed, Jarod knew his father had been wrong.::

But his little sister was too desperate to get to her Daddy, to be held in his loving arms, the only place where she could feel safe. She pulled loose of Jarod's hand and ran to the tall man in his gold and black uniform, pulling at his pant leg.::
