ON:

The S.S. Bonafide dropped from standard warp just outside of M-69's outer markers. A new frontier and a possible new home for a while, Ozzy Slick did not want to make enemies or become a target of observation before he even got started. His vessel was unique in this part of the galaxy, but would not be for long. The Syn'Thari Imperium seemed to have not been interested in one lone escapee from their facility because Oz had yet to even hint at being pursued. For over the past twenty years he had been left alone as he plied the spaceways as a merchant and traveler. Now, a new frontier was to be had, and with the amount of traffic he saw as he approached was a good sign.

"SS Bonafide, this is Starbase control. Your vessel is too large for any of our landing bays," The woman's voice continued to drone on. "We've sent a vector for you to dock at an airlock for smaller transport craft. Security will be standing by so have all documentation at the ready."

Silk looked to his controls, seeing the vector overlapping the others, showing his approach speed and turns to avoid other vessels moving about. In time, Transport captain Silk docked his ship with an airlock gangway attached to his egress point. Standing up from his pilot's chair, Silk adjusted the equipment belt/TAC holster on his waist and thigh, then stepped away from the controls as he made his way to the hatch. Most of his ship was in low lighting mode most days since he was the only one aboard currently. He had no crew, preferring to be by himself over the past decade. Now, maybe he would once again look into some kind of crew.

An old contact he had known back in the day had suddenly, out of nowhere, called Ozzy and told him there was to be fame and wealth to be had out this way. The source was trusted, not only by Ozzy Silk himself, but by others who were in the shadowy lines of work to be had around the galaxy. Stepping into the airlock, Ozzy spun around and locked down his ship, not wanting access by any of the Starfleet engineers charged with vessel maintenance for free. If a ship was left open then it was a signal for the engineers to come aboard and see to the minor problems. Silk could fix his own issues but, occasionally, he would leave a note for them to leave certain items at the airlock for him to bring aboard and use to make his own repairs. The UFP was good for being altruistic.

Nothing more for it, Captain Ozzy Silk made his way through the corridors on his journey towards the Promenade.
