[Seiben 0]

Seiben reports to the bridge of the Republic and takes his place at helm -- his new position, after requesting transfer.  Engineering is great, Seiben thinks, but his place is "behind the wheel" or so to speak. During his time as a cadet in academy, he always requested Helm.  Straight As in academy, and four missions as a pilot, convinced him to make this position permanent.  And since Kwai, the former helmsman isn't helm anymore, and the position was open, Seiben jumped at the chance.  So now here is Seiben sitting at helm on the bridge, complying with Admiral Blurox re-positioning the ship every 10 minutes.  Seiben rubs his head abit, and still feels a headache from hitting his head on the wall caused by the shockwave of the exploding OPS console.  He feels sorry for Casper and Kwai who got the worst of it, and also for Blu whose arm got impaled by a piece of metal. (and least he thinks that's what happened).  He hopes they are OK, but for now he gets back to work, but shortly after changing positions again, he hears of the terrorist group Terra for Terrans who claimed responsibility for the attacks on CNN. The organisation sounds familiar to him, but he doesn't remember where he heard of them before.  He thinks it was something about Paris, when he lived there, but he could be mistaken. Maybe once CNN elaborates on the organisation, he'll remember.  Right now, they are interviewing Seiben's mother, Mars Station's CMO.  She arrived to Mars via. transporter a few hours ago according to Seiben's sister.  About 50,000 lives were lost there, but she thinks it's alot more.  Alot of work for mother as well, he thinks. Seiben would like to know who the Terra for Terrans are, but all he could do now was wait.
