Changes

From the viewport on the Mirak starship Lionstrike, Kalos watched his home among the stars die, set on a collision course with the Borg wedge shaped ship that had sealed her fate. Very few of the crew had escaped in life pods, to be picked up by their Mirak allies. Kalos remembered the faces of each of them in the cramped space of the pod; Lieutenants Prolog, Balak and Lopu, himself, and a young Trill scientist [[Jal, Kinziri|Kinziri Jal]]. Later he’d seen them at the funeral of their Captain, then they had all parted ways.

In the years that followed the Borg Invasion, Kalos continued to serve in Starfleet in the medical department. Gradually the nightmares of the Borg faded away. He moved up in rank and position, from assistant Chief Medical Officer on the USS Antilles, to full blown CMO on the USS Chilliwak. He was then put in a situation that called for command skills, when half of the senior staff of the scout ship USS Cortez were killed during a mission. Lieutenant junior grade Kalos Arawn was then put through command training and assigned as First Officer when the Cortez was put back out with a resupplied crew. He served with some distinction on the small vessel for a number of years before inevitably, war came to the Federation once more.
