CHAPTER FOUR

When they walked into the Andromeda, Dylan, Rommie and Beka were there to meet their new guest.

The first to speak was Dylan, of course. He stepped forward and gave a slight bow.

"It's a pleasure to have you on-board Miss Le Fay. I hope you'll enjoy your time with us. If you'll excuse me, I have to go sort some business out. Rommie and Beka here will help make you feel welcome." When he finished he turned and walked down the corridor to go do his business stuff."

"Don't mind him. He's a workaholic. I'm Beka and this is Rommie. It's really nice to have you on board. I love meeting new people."

Harper laughed out loud but was abruptly cut off by Beka's elbow in his side.

"Ow" he said almost inaudibly, rubbing his sore ribs.

Trance knew why he had laughed. Beka wasn't the sort who welcomed strangers with open arms. She had obviously been given orders by Dylan to be nice to the new girl.

"It's nice meeting you all too. I'm gonna have so much fun here. I've heard all the stories! Life on the Andromeda sounds so.... Exciting!" And proving how excited she was, her tail started swishing behind her back.

Trance felt it was time to show Guinevere her quarters, so she bid her crew- mates goodnight and led Guinevere down the corridor.

Guinevere looked like a kid in a candy store, marvelling at her surroundings. When they reached the guest quarters, Trance showed her how to use everything and how to install privacy mode.

"Well, that's everything so I guess I'll let you get some sleep then Guinevere."

"Please, call me Gwinny. That's what my friends call me." She looked at Trance then gave her a quick hug. "Thank you."

"No probs. Night night then Gwinny." And she left, leaving Gwinny to sleep.
