Having heard the question from Captain Braggins, Amethyst looked at the other new Midshipmen. Looking into Callan's eyes, she found strength in his demeanor. She sat in one of the chairs, looked directly at the captain and searched for her strength. She felt a hand on her shoulder, it calmed her, so she assumed it was the spirit of her grandfather.
Clearing her throat, she began, "Well, first would like to say it is nice to meet you Captain Braggins," she then turned to the creature next to the captain, "and Dr. Beinn. I chose to be a Starfleet doctor because I was called to it. On my mother's home planet, we are an original family of The Third House, the house of health and my family governed over all the health clinics. At 7 years old, my twin brother and I created a children's clinic. Our father was a Starfleet doctor, Dr. Rory Bremner. I went to live on Earth with my grandparents, who were local doctors in Wick, Scotland. They did house calls and I helped them. I actually saw all of the easy cases, and the kids who were my age. I feel more at home fixing the human machine, than anything else in the universe, except maybe growing tulips. I knew then I wanted to be a doctor. I loved researching diseases, and I knew starfleet afforded me the opportunity to research new treatments and cures."
Amethyst blushed realizing she was rambling again. She felt he hand reach over to Callan's hand. She didn't know why, but this Scottish man made her feel calm and comfortable, just like her grandfather. She scanned the room again, wishing someone would talk, as her face felt hotter and hotter. She wondered if most new officers felt like this reporting to their first assignment. She, also, wondered why Dr. Beinn didn't say anything. Were The Children of San-Tarah usually this quiet?
