Wool leaned over Jelly’s hyper-sleep pod and hovered her finger over the release switch. A smile crept across her face as she took a moment to absorb the beauty of the creature.

"Look at you, honey," she whispered, "You look so peaceful. So perfect."

Jelly looked as comfortable as could be, resting face-up toward the glass.

"There’s a lot to play with up here. I think you’re going to like it."

Wool hit the button.

The glass retracted along the length of Jelly’s body. A few strands of fur lifted into the air as she shuffled around, still unconscious.

Wool put on a pair of plastic gloves and reached into the pod. She stroked Jelly’s stomach with her knuckle. The monitor attached to the unit began to beep, indicating that Jelly was about to wake up.

"Jelly?"

The cat opened her eyes and lifted her paws to her face. She wiped her brow and spun onto her side.

"There we go," Wool reached in and lifted Jelly under her arms.

"Meow," Jelly grunted, exercising her vocal chords for the first time in over a year.

"Good girl," Wool whispered and cradled Jelly in her arms. "Take your time, honey."

Jelly shuffled around and kicked her hind legs forward, stretching every muscle in her body. She licked her lips and dug her paws into Wool’s inner-skin suit.

"Hey, gorgeous. How are you?"

Jelly licked her lips again and clung to Wool’s arm. She let out a whine, fascinated by her surroundings.

An infinite playground surrounded her.

Desks, monitors, and chairs - ample opportunity to mess around, discover things and hide.

"Meow."

"Yes, Jelly," Wool walked over to the lab’s bench in the middle of the room. "This is your new home."

Wool set her on the bench. Jelly jumped from her arms and immediately made for the edge. A five-foot drop to the floor didn’t seem like much of a task.

"Oh no, no, no," Wool grabbed Jelly and slid her back along the bench. "Not yet you don’t, honey. I need to inspect you."

"Meow." Jelly struggled to release herself from Wool’s clutches.

"Hold on, girl."

"Look at me, Anderson," Wool took out a mini flashlight and shone it in Jelly’s face, "Left eye, please."

Jelly’s orange pupil focused on Wool’s face.

"Seems good. Right eye, please."

The light zipped over to Jelly’s other eye. Wool look around for signs of anything that may be untoward.

"Yep. Looking good."

"Meow."

"All set. A bit dilated, but nothing to worry about.," Wool ran her hand along Jelly’s back smoothing out her fur. "Hungry?"

Jelly ran the side of her head along Wool’s hand and purred.

"Very good, Jelly. Very good."

Wool ran her thumb over Jelly’s right shoulder and observed the scar where the chip had been implanted. "Manuel?"

"Yes, Wool?"

"Can we synchronize our guest with your coordinates, please?"

"Of course."

The holographic book appeared from out of thin air and flashed a green locater against a map of the ship. "J. Anderson is currently in the hyper-sleep quarters."

"Yes, I know she is. She’s right here."

"Meow." Jelly launched into the air and tried to claw at the holographic book. It flew backwards in an attempt to evade capture.
