Chapter one: 101 reasons why Scotty shouldn't have let his five year old niece colour in
Disclaimer: I own nothing

Hi guys!
For those who don't know who I am, I'm Xanabell from over in the Lord of The Rings section of this epic website. I've been watching Star Trek youtube clips and reading Star Trek fics, I decided to try my hand here. Please note: I've only ever watched Voyager, watched the 2009 reboot and have seen small amounts of DS9 on TV, so forgive me if I don't get something right. Anyway, on with the story. Punch it, Sulu!

R&R

"C'mon lass!" yelled Cadet Montgomery Scott as he tried to get his niece to hurry up and finish her breakfast so that he could drop her off at school and then get to his lecture and propose his idea of Trans-warp beaming to the admirals at the academy
"No ya vse yeshche yest!" replied the child as she put her spoon into her mouth
"English please lass" said Scotty as he raced around his little kitchen throwing her books into her school bag as well as food and some money for the canteen
"But I'm still eating!" huffed the child as she jumped down from the stool and picked up a crayon from her colouring in last night and finished colouring the paper a nice shade of royal blue before racing to the bathroom to do her hair
"Tatiana Anastasia Maria Romanov ye'd better hurry up in there lass! The bus is at te top of te street!" yelled Scotty as he hit the door to try to hurry her. It wasn't everyday he had to babysit the kid. She was good, helped him out with a few maths problems and understood the basic concepts of physics and engineering. Tatiana was his would-have-been-sister-in-law's, if his brother hadn't left her for someone else.

Natasha Romanov was a FBI secret agent, so he was on standby just about all the time to watch Tatiana but Nat had a good working relationship with the head of the department who understood her situation. There had been speculation if their last name was true. Nat had to trace their family back to her great- great- great- great- great- great-grandmother, who was The Anastasia Romanov. Anastasia had adopted Tataina's insert no. Of greats here gran, who had been divorced and with Tatiana's insert no. Of greats here again grandmother, and took on her adopted mother's maiden name of Romanov. When Natasha was born as a result of a one night stand, she too got the name Romanov. Finally Tatiana had been born after her father had left her mother at the airport. Nat being the resourceful woman, she was called up Scotty, who had instantly offered her a room until she got her life back on track. All of the Romanov's spoke Russian around each other, but little Tatiana was still learning that she had to speak English everywhere else. Being raised by her grandmother most of the time, the first word she ever spoke were Russian. After a long time she finally managed to pick up English as well.

When Tatiana exited the bathroom Scotty picked her up and carried her out to put her on the bus to take her to school, where she was a boarder. Her mother had tried to get her into Starfleet elementary but hadn't been able to until Scotty piped up the fact that he was her uncle.

Tatiana like the rest of her family could speak fluent Russian, but with a little accent problem from her years speaking American English. Other than that she was hot headed, something she had inherited from her father, but could control the temper if she wasn't provoked too much. Otherwise she just lashed out and hit the closest thing to her. As well as Russian and English, she could speak French, German and Mandarin, her mother had insisted that she learn all these languages in case she needed them. Heck she spoke more languages than most of the language officers in the Fleet. If she didn't major in engineering than it would have to be languages thought Scotty as he picked up his paper and ran to his first class of physics for the day.
