The being calling itself Brol slow adapted itself to the ships less that normal environment. But alas provisions would have to be made for it to survive.

" This is Brol calling this ships Captain. May I address you?" its new Avitaric voice called Cyndi. Brol had stopped using telepathy despite its efficiency in communication.

Cyndi had heard that there was a Brol aboard. But how would her officers and crew react to seeing a tree like creature walking the ship. Tapping her com-badge "This is Captain Song. I'll meet with you, where would be good for you?"

" Deck 17, section 21. The Arboretum Captain," Brol replied.

Cyndi turned to the science chief "Lieutenant your with me,"

" I will hold the fort down Captain," Will joked.

< Deck 17 >

Tara and Cyndi made their way to the Arboretum and entered both carrying tri-coders "I'm Captain Song and this is my science chief Lieutenant Herculoid."

" I am,Brol. Onvoy of peace to your ship. I wish to join your crew as an observer Captain. In exchange I will guide you through this...Sagitarrius...as you call it. My only necessicary is to reside her amongst the Arbors. I feel at home here. But in order to mingle I will need saturation. Perhaps your Lieutenant Herculoid could help me by designing liquifications that are totable. Then I can mingle with your crew?" Brol replied.

Tara ran several scans on the Brol and showed her scans to Cyndi "It's possible, but it will mean putting a tube into you. The amount of water you'll need to be able to mingle will be several thousand gallons," Tara said

"I agree with the lieutenant," Cyndi replied "Just how well do you know this system we've been sent to patrol?"

" The Brol have negotiated with nearly every species. The spiders drove us from our home world. We are homeless now."

"What of the seeds that the counselor was given?" Tara asked "The seedlings are growing well in my lab."

"I'm also sure we can find your species a new home," Cyndi added.

" As you wish. The seeds were for Friend. They mature to grown arbors and,each produce a different fruit when mature."

Cyndi looked to Herculoid "Did you know the seedlings were fruit trees?"

Tara shook her head "No captain I didn't. I just assumed that from what the counselor said the seedlings were Brol." Turning to the Brol "Sir I'm sorry I didn't know this. But they are thriving in the science lab."

" The seedlings are Brol. They are also sustenance. They beed to be planeted and transplanted. Another reason to remain." replied BROL.

I'm assuming you wish to remain on the ship," Cyndi said addressing the Brol. "Besides a way to make sure you get enough water is there anything else you'd require?"

" Allow me to maintain this lab for you."

"The seedlings are doing well and thriving," Tara said "I monitor them closely."

"What do you mean by maintain the lab?" Cyndi asked.

" To pay my way. I will caretake your arboretum. It is our way."

"You are qualified, I'm willing to give this a try," Cyndi said

" I am glad to serve for you Cyndi." Brol replied.
