Mission: Vagrants, Vagabonds, and Thieves
Location: SB-332 :: Warp-12

Samanthia went through her normal routine, leaving thing in the hands of the deities with Archa IV Tourism. Either she would get the permit or not, She would still be allowed on planet to conduct her business. In seeing what classes were available at the Archa's University. Plus make her meeting and then return. If anything caught her eye at the University, Samanthia would become a student once more. From the latest brochures that actually listed courses, some of them sounded intriguing for a second glance.

Some would say she was out to grab the chance for a second youth by going back to school. But she didn't care for she knew life was to be lived and savored. Besides she wanted to renew some acquaintenance and see if that quirky Professer was still around that everyone seamed to love and no matter what he taught, his classes, lectures, seminars were always full. Even for the sake of debating with him on his weird theories.

::Flashback::

Samanthia on a wild dare from her fellow Cadets during one of those times where a Cadet could play hooky from the day's regimine could do so. They flocked to the nearby beaches for a day in the sun, surfing, volleyball, frisbee and other beachside activities. Even admiring the opposite gender's exposed physiques.

"Come next semester, everyone take one course that not towards your major. Completely the opposite." A tall robust female cadet spoke up, "And see how well you do in it."

"They whont allow you to, Trish!" Another male cadet spoke up. "The councilors would veto it and place you inna another class that would enhance your major."

"Then we will all take the same course that belongs in all majors, but an elective course, by the most annoying professer that's on staff." Samanthia spoke up to add to the fun of the Group's Dare. Getting sand tossed on her for the obnoxious suggestion amidst the good natured debate that sprung up on who was the worse Professer to have and what courses he offered.

As they was packing up to head back to the Academy, Samanthia saw the young man in another group of Cadets. They both made eye contact and the Earth disappeared around her. She watched him stumble a bit of uneven ground and the moment was gone as everything intruded once more.

"Samanthia! What got your attention?" Trish bumped her getting her attention as the Male Cadet broke eye contact with her.

"Huh... thought I recognized an old friend from the past," Samanthia turned to her group, finishing putting on a wrap that would be decent and acceptable to wear on Campus.

Trish laughed, "The way you was drooling, must've been one hawt acquaintenance!" Making Samanthia laugh.

"Well couldn't be that hawt or I'd been nothing but a splotch on the sand!" Samanthia retorted good naturely, helping with the group's equipment and taking it back to their assigned vehicle.

The debate on the Group Dare, continued on the drive back to the Academy....

::Current::

Samanthia smiled at the memory as she stood in the doorway, leaning against the doorframe, But not blocking it from use. She looked over her busy lounge, patrons enjoying a moment of time from their busy schedule to relax amongst friends and family. A group of amature musicians were playing an upbeat soft jazz number and doing quite good by the number of couples on the dance floor, enjoying the music and each other.

"Miss Akiashiro!" Came the voice of Miss Drimonia, getting her attention as she stood next to a handsome Archa male.

Samanthia smiled as she stood up from her position against the doorjamb, giving the Archa guestures of greetings, "Miss Drimonia!" Then she stage whispered to her, "Whot a handsome catch. I may steal him from you." Good natured as Drimonia and her Beau beamed with pride. She turned to him. "Greetings Good Sire, welcome to my establishment. May you and your lovely lady enjoy your time here." Then lead them to a table that afforded a good view of the stage and provided privacy at the same time.

"I thought since I was coming here, I'd drop off these here for you. Saving you a trip up to the office." Drimonia held out a large business envelope to her.

Samanthia took the envelope as she seated them both, giving it the merest glance, taking note of the official seals of Archa IV on them. "Enjoy your time here," waving over her best waitress to take care of Miss Drimonia and her date. She turned to the waitress and spoke to her. "Bring their tab to me once they've been served."

Samanthia gave the young Archa couple a quick bow and moved off, leaving them in the care of the waitress. She was giddy and yet trepid of the contents of the envelope, as she made her way to her office.

Samanthia moved through the lounge, nodding to various regulars. Once free of the Lounge proper and in the quiet of her Office. She opened the envelope and took out the forms with trepidation. She smiled as her credit card sized permit fell to her desk. It was the newest one and approved. The forms looked good as they had been also approved.

She went about getting ready for her trip to Archa IV. She sent reservation for one of the Akiashiro's shuttles for the next day. Made arrangements for her senior mannager to take charge while she was gone for the week.
