swiped my keycard at the console outside the Bridge and entered. For two days, I’d had the outpost-lab to myself, and today I’d have to hand it off. Was it possible to be excited and sad at the same time? Because that’s how I felt: excited to share but overprotective of the find. Sad to see it be explored by someone else. Someone outside the crew of SeaSatellite5.

Ensign Olivarez sat ready for me at his station, views of the outpost onscreen.

I stood beside him. “Hey. What’s it looking like, Ensign?”

“Freddy,” he reminded me again. “If you insist I call you by your first name, call me by mine.”

I flashed him a smirk and checked out his name patch. “Okay, Alfredo.” He gave me a come on look, and I shrugged. “Fine, Freddy, what’s it looking like today?”

Freddy shifted screens and pointed to a part of the complex I hadn’t seen before. “We found a fourth floor, also flooded. I didn’t expect to find a lot from a bird’s eye view, and the auto-DSVs aren’t finding anything, either. Everything else will have to be discovered hands-on.”

Figured. I sighed. “Sounds good to me.”

Freddy shifted screens to NANA readings. “It’ll also have to sound good to the Captain, or you aren’t going to explore anything, period.”

“I know.” I stepped away from Freddy’s station. “The military archaeologist is flying in today, anyway.”

“When?” he asked, eyes on his station.

I didn’t know for sure. Didn’t even know their name. “I’d assume not long after we flip.”

“So, about thirty minutes from now.”

I checked my watch. Just enough time to catch breakfast. My stomach grumbled an agreement.

Freddy laughed, apparently having heard it. “Better get some food, then don your briefing look. Rumor says you’re the one giving it.”

Public speaking, my favorite thing. “Great.”
