Thirteen years. It has been thirteen years since I was freed. Since I was given command of myself. Since I was given back the power of choice. Since I was freed from the Borg. In that time, I have recovered my individuality, grown close to my biological family, found aspects of different cultures I enjoy and regained my humanity. But I will still never be human, never be one of them. The sub-dermal implants and nano probes floating in my bloodstream remind me of that every day. All I can do is focus on the work, focus on my goals and maybe one day, I will make my family proud.

My new assignment, is Command Master Chief aboard Starbase 400 in the Beta Quadrant. A station like that has enlisted crew numbering in the thousands and I'm responsible for every one of them. I look forward to getting to know them all as much as I can and hoping that a crew this size will help me further break away from my longing for the collective. Seven told me that Voyager's crew did the same for her since she was used to smaller groups within the collective herself, so someone like myself who would be clustered on a ship with thousands of drones should do well here.

Looking over the rest of the Command Staff, half of them are telepathic, well partly anyway. Might be odd for them dealing with someone who's brain is more synthetic than organic and doesn't produce the waves needed to be susceptible to telepathy. Which means they will either be more apprehensive around me because they cannot get a read off me or they will be less because they can have a conversation with me without also hearing or feeling whats on my mind. Differently though, the Fleet and Rear Admirals here are part Klingon as well as Vulcan so I will hopefully be able to keep my Bat'leth skill strong if we become friends ... or enemies. We shall see I guess.

Well we are approaching the station so I must prepare to depart. Mom, Jake and Jamie I love you three. Seven, I will fill you in on my first week at our normal time.
