Bio:
Following in the footsteps of her big sister, Lexi, Jemma also joined starfleet academy.Unlike her sister however, she proved quite skilled at maths and physics and followed the science track within the academy. In her second year, an accident with a quantum physics experiment almost cost her and her friends their lives, but the quick acting of then-academy-instructor Harold Finch saved them and earned him a commendation for bravery. In her 4th year she started a small project looking into the possibilities of using multiple ships spread around a sector in tandem in order to obtain more detailed sensor information then one ship can measure on its own. The project was successful and was picked up by starfleet science department and further developed to be usable in real-life situations.
When Jemma graduated from the academy, she wanted to be assigned somewhere where the latest scientific discoveries where made. Having heard from the event int he Accobar System from her sister, she applied for a position there. This concerned her parents greatly since her sister had been in a number of dangerous situations in that sector, but Jemma convinced them that this was what she wanted and that there was "no guts no glory in frontier reseach". Being a little daredevil from childhood on, this was not the first time her parents had to give in to her risky nature and thus they wished her the best of luck.
Jemma headed for Pioneer station on June 4th 2385...

Personal Log Jemma Etis, September 15th 2385.
Last week, Mr. Thrace hinted to me that I might be getting a promotion soon! He says I've been doing a good job around the station and of course the science division. I must have impressed him I think. I havn't told my parents or sister yet, but i will write them as soon as I really get the promotion, can't wait!
With this good news I can also add that my headaces have faded now. The incident with the tablets when I first got on the station had its effects on me but fortunately they didn't last. I'm just glad I can work more concentrated again now and not worry about my health, well, not much anyway, I still have to stay in shape! I try to go to the gym once a week and just do some sports with the other crewmembers, quite enjoyable really. I never got much time to do any of that when I was in the Academy and working on my grad project, it's quite nice not having to think about your study and getting a paper done in time or something like that after the day is over and just sit back and relax or go out and do something fun.
I havn't met much other people yet, well, ofcourse i've SEEN alot of people, not in a see see sence but just, uhm, seeing them around the station... Computer, delete that last line...
I would like to get some friends around the station, I can get along with mr Thrace and professor Fox well but, they are both old people, it would be nice to have a friend of my own age, just someone to hang around with after duties. I tried talking with Ms Swan, but she seems distant... not really a talker and when she does, she is quite... unpersonal. I really miss my old friends at the Academy. I hear Foster is doing quite nicely on the USS Yakamoto. And Shaleesha was assigned to science station 5 where they are researching new warp technologies.
Well, so, I'm really psyched about that promotion, fingers crossed since I'm not 100% sure I'm actually getting it so yeah...

Personal Log Jemma Etis,
Today was, well, really one of those days i secretly signed up for, although there was a bit too much exitement for me to handle. Seeing those asteroids comming straight towards us... well they say you see your life flash before your eyes when you face iminent death and I realised my life was still far too short for that. Maybe I should be a bit more carefull wishing for adventure in the future, atleast I now know how Lexi must have felt like in the past.
On a brighter note, tomorrow we are going to be host of the biggest peace talks since the Kithomer Accord, go Pioneer station! There is a lot of pressure on Ms Haptons shoulders. She was already acting a bit strange today, but Mr Thace ensured me everything was alright now. I saw on the News Network that Romulan Ambassador Taval is gong to lead the peace talks. I bet mom isn't too pleased with that, she never liked his political approach to certain things. I just think mom should watch less politics, in my eyes they all have some sort of hidden agenda and getting yourself upset about that won't help anyone. I just know that I will do my part in the events to the best of my abilities, it would really be great to see peace between Romulus and the Federation for once. I mean, if my parents could do it, why can't the political leaders, right?

Personal Log Jemma Etis,
Today I finally got out of sickbay! About time, I was really getting unnerved by just lying there all day... I still can't quite grasp the fact how close i came to not waking up anymore though, but the most important thing is that I survived. I'm really gratefull that the crew found me and did all they could to help. On a more positive note (well, being alive is positive aswell, haha), I got a promotion! Not only did i get my first pip *whoho* but Mr Thrace also promoted me to Assistant Chief Science Officer! The work i've done in the past weeks impressed him and the other senior staff, so, tihi, I really need to contact sis about this! Alot of the crew where at the little ceremony they held, that made me really happy. Even Ms Hampton was there, I talked to her for a bit but she seemed a little sad when I asked her about why she studied to be a scientist.
Anyway, Mr Thrace gave me the day off early today, he said he could handle things in the lab. I think ill go to the bar to get a drink, I've done enough sleeping the past week in sickbay already.

Personal Log, Jemma Etis, Stardate <After the Hera returned from Hamptons resque>
Hey log *drops herself on the bed* what a week. I'm really relieved we where able to find Dr. Hampton. Doctor Rogan says she will be alright after a few days of rest. *Yawns heavily* Really tired now though... Still havn't found a trace of Asteroid Base Alpha or Melia Clarke. I've been monitoring the Hobus system since that is what she mentioned before she left. The message from Lexi she gave really got my hopes up, I won't stop looking untill I find here again.
In the meanwhile, Kyle has been trying to cheer me up. We had a nice dinner in his quarters this week, he also set up some candles to make the whole thing a bit romantic, hihi. He a bit of a hopeless romantic, contacting me almost every hour seeing if we can spend some time together. Ah, he's a nice guy and doing his best *twirls her hair trough her fingers*, maybe... who knows... At the verry least we're having a good time together, that is something nobody can take away from us anymore.
*Looks at the ceiling as her mind wanders off* Accobar... you're full of mysteries... I never expected any of this the day I got here... *falls asleep*

Personal Log, Jemma Etis,
I'm on my way to see Lexi! Captain Munro informed me that all the Asteroid Base crew where awake and gave me permission to visit my Sister. All of the crew are recovering on Earth after the events in Hakonian space. I'm really glad I can talk to her again after all that has happend. I've send a message to my parents but haven't heard back yet. I also haven't talked to mother for over 2 months now, every time I call father says she's busy with work. I really hope she isn't drowning herself in it because she didn't want to face the fact that Lexi might not have made it. I hope I can get in contact with her once I've spoken to Lexi, I'm sure that she will be able to relax once she knows we're both fine...
Shuttle Pilot: "Miss Etis, we're recieving a message from Pioneer Station. It's from Commander Chaplain."
Oh, alright... Hmmm, the crew are going on shore leave tomorrow, he's asking me to if I can join in after my visit... Alright, send him back a message that I'll be arriving a bit late. I could sure use some relaxation after all of this...
Shuttle Pilot: "Ma'am, your still recording."
Oh right, yes, I forgot!

Personal Log, Jemma Etis.
It has been a strange few months. On the one hand, I've enjoyed working side by side with my Sister, on the other, a lot of my old colleagues, who became more then just that the past years, have been absent. I really hope they are all doing well. Now my sister has been recalled, apparently Starfleet traced down someone high up on the 'most wanted persons in the Milky Way' list and Lexi presence was 'required'. Well, it was fun while it lasted, I hope I will get to see some of my old friends again soon though.
On the bright side, I've finally gotten around to finishing the entire 'The Melody of Wind and Thunder' series of books my mom bought me as my going away present when I left for Pioneer. Perhaps I should start with a new novel now, I hear Mr. Thrace left behind quite the collection in his office...

Personal Log, Jemma Etis.
I just got a card from Mr. Thrace. Its a picture of him on some sort of tropical island, saying he doesn't know when he will be back but he's thinking of us. He looks pretty happy so i think everything is ok. I did find a really nice book in his collection that I'm going trough now, doesn't mind because I haven't even finished chapter 1 yet.
There's been no word from my sister yet, I wonder what all the secrecy is about this time. I guess we will learn soon enough though. I've been poking Captain Mason about it on and off but apparently she doesn't know a lot about it either. Now that I think about it, she's been a bit evasive around me ever since we discovered that brief-case. I wonder if she... No, she couldn't, could she? I mean... no, I should trust her with this, besides I've got enough to worry about already. Helping out the refugees has been quite the task for the engineering and medical department so I was forced to dive into some tech manuals and fix some minor issues with the systems myself. Ah well, engineering skills plus-plus I guess, can't hurt anyways.
I should probably write mom and dad again, I'm not sure if my previous letter arrived... Perhaps Lexi will get a chance to visit them after she's done doing... well whatever...

My name is Jemma... Jemma Etis, and this might be the last log entry I make on board Pioneer Station.
We have been ordered to... *Loud bang*
What the...
*Red Alert Sounding*
Already? Shite....
*Sound of laptop being slapped shut*
Computer, start log.
So, its over... we... we made it. Pioneer is safe, it's crew is still standing, even the Hera is, albeit heavily damaged, still hanging on in dock 2. Unfortunately, this was not without losses...
Mr Thrace... Daniel... He came out of nowhere down on the planets surface. Saved my life there, if it wasn't for him I would have fallen into the abyss. It was a miracle, and for a very short time there, I was really happy, and then, I got really sad. He stayed behind to manually manage the power flow of the rift regulator. Due to the unstable area around the regulator and the power requirements of the device. Thrace... well, at least he went out with a bang. Rest in piece Daniel, my chief, my mentor... my friend.
Hostilities around the system have ended, for now. So thats a bit of good news. Some groups are still hunting for the Halkonians while others are still picking up the pieces from the Hobus disaster. A lot of Romulans lost everything they had when it happened. I heard that most of them found new homes among the stars now. There is only so much you can do for them...
A lot of sad news, I know. But hey, here's a bright bit of news. With my sister still on board the station, my parents have decided to come over and visit us for a week. My mom managed to get a temporal replacement for her at work and my dad, well, he doesn't do much anyway in that chapel of his. I'm sure Alpha Centauri will live for the week, haha. I'm looking really forward to meeting them. It's been so long since the family has been together.

So, where do I begin this time... Well, the Hera is in orbit of one of the moons in the Yddris system, so there's that. Oh and did you know, my father is a member of Starfleet Intelligence, so he's basically a spy. Oh and my mother too! I can't believe that they kept something like from me and Lexi all these years!
On top of all that, because of their "secret", they got themselves abducted by some Romulan remants hiding on the moon here. My dad managed to escape in one of their shuttles and came to Pioneer to ask us for help, and here we are. Apparantly, the Romulans have some kind of plan involving Pioneer in place aswell. Captain Mason took a team down together with Costello to get my Mom back and check up on that plan. With Costello and Riker down there I'm more worried about Pioneer and all the crews family then anything else at this point.
*In the background*
=/\= Mason to Hera....
It seems the mission went well...

Computer... start log.
On my way back from Alpha Centauri with Lexi... It was a nice ceremony, I had just hoped that... that it wouldn't have happend so soon...
And I can't believe that one of the last things I said to him where in anger. I was so... so angry for him... both of them lying to me for all this time.
I feel terrible about it. My mom is taking all of it pretty bad, fortunately she has some good friends in New Missisipi she can rely on. My sister seems more calm about it then usual, in fact I've rarely seen her like this.
*sobs* I know that everything will be fine... that time will heal and all that, but right now... I feel worthless. *sobs*
*Looks out of the shuttle window as the sound of someone sitting down next to her is heard*

So yeah, it's been 7 years. 7 Years since I started on this crazy adventure. Sure, I didn't knew it back then, although, I could have guessed it going by my sisters stories... Actually, those where the entire reason I even signed up for a position in Accobar. I wanted adventure and exitement like any young starfleet officer fresh out of the academy. Perhaps I got a bit more then I could chew in the end...
We've been trough a lot together, and we lost some people along the way. Dad, if you can hear me somewhere up there, I'm still thinking of you every day. I don't regret what happened, not anymore, it made me the person I am today and I'm completely happy with that. Thank you, for everything.
So on to the matter at hand. Stopping the Accobarians. What a daft plan this is, but it's not like there is any other possibility... is there? I really hate saying that "there is no other option". If there is, I can't see it so we're just going trough with this plan. I said my goodbyes to mom, should anything happen to me. I had hoped to talk to Lexi aswell, but for some reason my security clearance is not high enough for me to contact her or even know where she is for that mattter. So, here goes: Sis, if something happens to me (which I don't hope will, but I'm old enough to know that in this line of work nothing is a certainty) and they release my logs to you, know that I love you very much. Oh and that thing I told you about that I was not sure about but was thinking about for quite a while now... well... soo... yeah, that happened, hihi. I've also left something at the end of this message just for you.
*Sound of doors can be heared*
Mason: "Is everyting ready Jemma?"
Yes ma'am, just transporting the last pieces of equipment to the Helia.
*Sound of button being pressed*
