Sandra Bachmeier

[Grail]

Sandra Bachmeier was born on planet Stuttgart, in the year 793. She is a daughter of one of the most respectable families of Stuttgart, the Bachmeiers.

She was a normal child, did normal childish things, and was loved by her parents and familie. She traveled all over Rheinland space, and some corners of the Sirius, with her parents.

One day, "that day, i didnt realized i had changed" - she told to her fellow comrades on the bar - when she was 8 years old, she was playing outside her familie estate, on Stuttgart. Strangers approached, at first just some creepy glimps of persons walking. Scared, she ran into the house and called her father. Than, she went with him, and 2 private security guards, to see who were these strangers. "I still remenber their faces. Slim, with no hope in their eyes". After some talk, her father said something in one guard ear and left with her in direction of the house. Her father was silent and didnt even looked at her. Than she looked back and saw the 2 guards beating the strangers on the floor with their boots. She was to young to understand what that meant, but tears fell out her eyes with that image. "Who were they mein father?" she asked. "Unemployed scumm" her father responded with some grin look at his face.

The years had passed, Sandra, age 17, became a curious little woman, reading all her father books, some precious relics from Sol time. She inquired her parents, teachers and friends about everything. She started to study to be an archaeologist, time was her interest, and that was the way she had figured to know all about humankind along the time. She assisted the University movement on planet New Berlin, a movement called the Bundschuh. She was terrified watching the goverment actions against them, kills, arrestements, and public censurship. She started to see a patern, a hand behind all this "i noticied that the big companies stocks interessts raise after a a goverment action against the students".

Some years later, Sandra was preparing her final exams when the Republican Shipping pilots revolt exploded. Some pilots and their families were on strike for some days,on Alster station, when police and military ships appeared and started to shoot the convoys of the revolties. Many were dead, women and children also. They were called scumm "that word echoed on my mind. They werent scumm. They were fighting for justice against their greedy bosses". She traveled to Hamburg system, and she watched the survivors anger and dispair with all that human destruction. She met one of those pilots, Matthias Zevonen, who had lost one of his sons and she decided to help him and the rest of his family to get to Munich system, to a friendly base there. When they arrived, she decided to go confront the responsables for the Alster massacre on New Berlin.

When she arrived at the Republican Shipping headquarters, she went straight to the company manager. She opened the door and she yeld "Murderes. Inoccent blood is on your hands, mein herr." Than, a familiar voice said "was is wrong meine little liebe?". Her father was seated on the oppossite corner of the room, talking to the companie manager. "Was are you doing here father?" she questioned perplexed. "Herr Gunhein were talking about the shares profits and other matter meine liebe". She couldnt believe what she was earing. 3 days after the massacre they were talking about money. She said nothing.

As she walked on New Berlin streets, she started to feel the pain of her life as a high class member. She looked at a young girl and her father with a sign by their side "I need food for meine family". She gave her wallet, and by doing so she gave up her identity.

When she got to the hangar and looked at her Falcon class ship she realized she had a message.

"Sandra, this is Mattias Zevonen speaking. I was wondering if you would like to join mein new crew at the AU-WMM-Zevonen. We need to do something against this all situation..."

She smiled and pressed the reply button "Matthias, where do we meet?"
