Jenna Correlli-Taggert smiled slightly as she took in the new inventory. She?d waited a long time to get her hands on this specimen. Such fine, delicate features, much like the other, only more so. He really did get the very best of both worlds. The enhancements of an experiment gone very right combined with the good genes of both dame and sire. She couldn?t believe the bitch had gone to the other sire after this. That was too much like going from a thoroughbred stallion to a donkey. And yet, it only proved how well her experiment had really worked. Looking over at the first in her lot she stroked the containment pod gently. Despite his slight stature and the faulty genetics of his sire he really was a truly beautiful specimen as well. She wondered what the outcome would have been of a few other trials. Had they partnered her with, say, a Betazoid or a Vulcan, or perhaps even tried her out with some of their own special blends. No doubt the outcomes would have been glorious. If only she?d cooperated. Instead, they'd been forced to destroy her. Such a pity. Now they would simply have to satisfy themselves with looking closer at her offspring and the research now being done on the next generation from their seed. Some interesting combinations had been made and she looked forward to monitoring their progress. "Cryopod secured, ma'am." the ensign assured her as he stepped back from the set. "The rest of the supplies are onboard as well." "Good." Jenna smiled sweetly. "set a course for Deep Space Vega Prime. Best speed." "Aye, ma'am." the young man answered, informing the helm of the order. Within moments they were underway. Jenna surveyed her treasures and sighed. At last, her real work could begin. I am wounded but I am not dead. I shall lay me down and bleed a while. Then I will rise and fight again. --------------------------------- How low will we go? Check out Yahoo!
