As she had requested, Captain Green met with Cosmo and Rollo, the adorable and all too loyal droids, and showed them the X-wing fighters. Cosmo was elated to see his old small craft home, rolling in circles and bleeping excitedly for a few moments before stopping.
"Mistress, it is beyond my expectations to have ever seen this ship again!" Cosmo had switched to his vocabulator and spoke in Federation Standard. Not a common thing for him to do since he considered any conversations between himself and his Master as confidential. However, this moment required that he drop that caution.
Rollo too, looked up at Ro. "They are impressive craft, Captain Green."
For her part, Green went to a knee and waved Cosmo in, and when he rolled up she giggled and smiled as she hugged him like a long lost child, leaning back to smile even more. "We're back, little buddy. More than ever! Get in here, you," said Ro, waving Rollo in and showing him the same affection. In the Pallean galaxy it was not unusual for people to develop a bond with their droids, an emotional connection as strong as any they would have for organics. Ro Green was one of those people, seeing some droids as a cut above others and deserving of praise and love. "Okay, you two. Give each fighter a once over and see to any tweaking that needs be done. Second, once the diagnostics and maintenance are finished, I need you both to create two more droids just like yourselves. As you know, Cosmo, the X-wing relies heavily on the droid co-pilot and on-board engineer."
"We will accomplish it, Master Ro." Cosmo referred to her as the title she held as the Meji Master she was. "I shall also download all my knowledge about the X-wing to Rollo, since I assume he will be the droid for the fighter designated for Captain Taavis?"
"Correct," said Green. "Please, do all you need to to get him up to speed, Cosmo. My personal lab," she chinned in the direction of the bulkhead here in Shuttlebay two, where her own extensive lab had been placed. All her own gadgets and what not were stored there, and it was also a research and development lab Green could work in without the possibility of being disturbed. She kept it on lockdown when not present, with only herself and Cosmo allowing access to the interior. She was sure that Cosmo would now allow Rollo access. It was designated as a Meji lab, so therefore was listed as classified TOP SECRET for all Starfleet personnel. The X-wings would also be listed as TOP SECRET, and under Meji jurisdiction. Only a handful of personnel would be allowed access to the craft for those times that organic maintenance would be needed. Ro already had in mind the few people she would allow access to. But, that would come later. For now, she needed to do all the paperwork to make this all legal according to the agreement with the Federation Council and Starfleet. "Needs to be logged and packed up in secure shipping crates. The Mejian (Mandalorian) armor, all the saber components, all of it. Okay?"
"Yes, Mistress. It will be done to your exacting standards." Cosmo said.
"Thank you," Green said with a grin. She placed a hand lovingly on his rotund body. "I am nothing without you, little buddy. You may proceed, I have work to do, myself." Taking that as his cue, Cosmo got Rollo in beside him and they began to move around the X-wings with a purpose.
Standing up, Green watched them for a few moments before she spun on her heel and departed the compartment. She needed to log all this, and make some very important calls to Starfleet Command.
