John sat quietly in the back of Quarks. He watched as many people lost large amounts of Latinum at the dabo tables. It was clearly going to be a good night for the house. A Ferengi strode throughout the bar with a large smile on his face. John could only assume that he was Quark, the owner.

John's attention turned to the entrance where a very beautiful woman had walked in. He watched as she visited with the happy Ferengi who pointed her in John's direction. The woman walked over to John's table and sat down.

"Hello, I am Miranda," she said.

"Hello Miranda, I am John Wright. I understand that you are looking for a job."

"Nice to meet you John Wright, I understand that you have a opening for a lounge manager on your fancy new starship," she said playfully.

John smiled, "Well, we do have a lounge, and we are without a manager for that lounge, but I am curious, Why would you want to tend bar on a warship. Certainly, there are safer jobs for you?"

"I am an El-Aurian Commander. I enjoy traveling and expanding my experience," she replied.

"You could rent a shuttle and travel Miranda, why my starship," he asked.

"Because it is new and I like new things Commander," she laughed, "The truth be told I have a friend in the Maquis aboard the USS Atlanta. He intrigued me so much that I thought that perhaps I would like to spend more time with you space warriors. I am also hoping to run into him again someday too."

"Well, he must be some friend," replied John.

"Indeed", she said, "So do I have the job?"

"Indeed," replied John. "When do you want to start?"

"The sooner the better. I have no luggage, I am ready to go now," she replied eagerly.

Together they walked out onto the promenade. "So, does your lounge have a name Commander?" asked Miranda

"Yes it does, It is called Miranda's," he said with a smile. Wright tapped his comm badge, "Wright to Zion, two to beam up."
