... you into joining.” I checked my last buckle and relaxed back into the couch. The officer turned to check my couch and straps. “Will you need a relaxer for the flight?” “No, ma’am,” I answered, as I looked up to see a set of piercing blue eyes framed in a face that would make an angel sing. “I see we have a flight veteran here.” “No, ma’am, this is the first time I have ever left the surface of Mud.” “I would suggest you use a relaxer then. Most people don’t handle their first jump well.” “He will be fine, sweetheart. He is the ultimate hard ass.” Randall said with a chuckle, from behind her. She turned and looked back at Randall. “You have joined the military, recruit. I am ,’ma’am’ to you.” She spoke in a voice that sounded like it contained iron. Randall shrank back into his couch. “Yes, ma’am,” he said, with a little quaver in his voice. The officer checked my buckles and straps before moving on to the next couch. It was not long after that we felt the jump shuttle lift off. An hour later we cleared the atmosphere, and the jump drive activated. It felt like I was turned inside out and tickled all along my exposed insides. The twisting sensation was like nothing I had ever felt before. My sense of position told me all of my body parts were occupying the same space. My toes overlapped my fingers, and they both shared the same space with my ears and nose.

It was nothing like a civilian starliner. Those flew through normal space at warp speeds. A voyage of five light years would take a week in a star liner. A military craft could cover the same distance in seconds. The shuttle turned in space and headed for the troop transport. The shuttle bay doors were open and waiting. We all felt the slight jolt as the shuttle made contact with the deck. Then the female officer came in and shouted, “Up and out recruits! It is time to get your gear and start learning how to be a soldier!” I stood up out of the form-fitting couch. The other recruits were scrambling to grab their personal bags. I moved with a deliberate pace. “Drake, you are going to get us in trouble. Move your ass!”,” Randall said in a hoarse whisper. I continued to move with my deliberate pace. The others had already scrambled down the boarding ramp and into the bay. They were the typical scared kids. I had not seen anything to fear yet. The officer stepped in front of me. “Recruit, you had better learn how to run when you are told to.” I smiled and looked her straight in the eye. “Ma’am, there are only two reasons I have ever found to run.” I stepped ...
