Star Trek: Voyager -
Natural Adaptation
This is my version of what happens after the end of Natural Law. It will focus mainly on the relationship between Seven and Chakotay as well as others.
Chapter 1
(In Cargo Bay 2, after returning from Ledosia, Seven is uploading data when Chakotay walks in)
Chakotay: Hey Seven, I've just come to see how you are doing?
Seven: Shouldn't I be asking that of you Commander? How is your leg by the way?
Chakotay: Its healing, the doctor was surprised at how much it has healed already, what with the limited resources that are available to the Ventu.
Seven: Good I am glad you are recovering
Chakotay: Ok then, I'll be... Hey is this what I think it is?
(He notices the Ventu blanket)
Seven: Oh yes, the Ventu girl gave it to me
Chakotay: That was nice of her; anyway shouldn't you be regenerating right about now.
Seven: I will be, once I have finished inputting my account of what happened
Chakotay: Alright make sure you do the at least 7 hours like the doctor recommended.
Seven: I will goodbye Commander.
Chakotay: Goodbye Seven
(A few weeks later in the Mess Hall, the Voyager Crew is having a party to say goodbye to Neelix, which is also attended by the Talaxians from the asteroid. Seven walks up to Neelix who is staring out of the window).
Neelix: Oh hello Seven
Seven: I did not mean to disrupt your chain of thought.
Neelix: Oh it's ok
Seven: You are nervous about leaving Voyager
Neelix: Very much so, this ship has been my home for 7 years and I am going to miss each and every member of this crew.
Seven: I can assure you that the crew, including myself will most definitely notice your absence.
Neelix: Ah, Seven is this your way of saying that you'll miss me
Seven: Certainly, however I have arranged with the Captain for us still to have daily contact.
Neelix: You have
Seven: Yes, I thought it would be an adequate way for you to still maintain contact with Voyager.
Neelix: It's more than adequate, thank you for arranging that Seven.
Seven: You're welcome
Tom: Hey, Neelix get over here
Neelix: One moment Mr Paris, Seven before I go and say goodbye to the rest of my friends, I want you to promise me something.
Seven: The Borg do not make promises.
Neelix: Oh please, just this once
Seven: What is this promise?
Neelix: Promise me that you will talk with Commander Chakotay.
Seven: About what?
Neelix: I think you know what, I've seen the way you two are together, especially after what happened with the Ventu, so promise me that you will at least talk to him.
Seven: I will consider it.
Neelix: Good, now I've gotta go say goodbye to everyone else, goodbye Seven.
Seven: Goodbye Neelix
