With her fourth day/month check up over Amethyst made her way to the shuttle-bay with a check list of medical items that had been loaded and stocked up ready transferred to Starbase Mercury. Her first job was to check off each crate as it was loaded onto either cargo transporters or the shuttle that was taking her across to the Starbase. Heavier bulky items could be sent on ahead via transporters and lighter more fragile things could go aboard the shuttle for safe keeping.

Walking into the shuttle-bay Amethyst wasn’t surprised to see the crew already busy piling up boxes and crates of supplies.

“Counsellor” the burly Lieutenant who was overseeing the task at hand greeted her. “We’ve made a start on the medical supplies ma’am, your list should have automatically updated when we sent the first load. It was mainly larger medical equipment that the Starbase will need.”

Amethyst nodded as she checked her list. “That’s great Lieutenant, can you see to it that anything fragile or too risky to transport goes aboard the shuttle please, it can go down with me.”

“Aye ma’am and that’s with us ma’am, your husband will have my guts for garters if I send you across in a shuttle alone, especially in your condition.”

“But I ...” She paused, she knew better than to try and complain after Will had made up his mind about something. “Very well Lieutenant, let’s get on, get loaded up and head over to Mercury.”

- A while later -

Amethyst took her seat and made herself comfortable leaving Lieutenant Chan to pilot the shuttle. It wasn’t like it was going to be a long trip across they were right alongside the Starbase although some error with the docking systems had temporarily stopped the ship from attaching to the docking collar hence the shuttle ride as transporters weren’t recommended given her complicated pregnancy.

It didn’t take long for the shuttle to reach its destination, the Starbase crew were already on hand ready to off load the shuttle and transfer everything to either storage or sickbay.

“Thank you Lieutenant” Amethyst smiled warmly.

“My pleasure ma’am, I’ll be here to collect you when you’re ready to return just give me a call and let me know when you’re ready.” Chan smiled.

“I will” Amethyst nodded and smiled before picking up her checklist and heading on her way to the Mercury’s Sickbay.
