Green Eyed Q - First Chapter

Q wasn't happy! He was omnipotent, devastatingly handsome, with an IQ that was off the scale. He even had a loving, devoted family with Little Q and Lady Q but there was something missing. He recalled recent events which led to the conception of his son. He realised that he was still bothered that Captain Janeway had turned him down. Her refusal of his offer was outrageous, which made her even more interesting and desirable in his eyes. Nobody had ever said NO to Q and he didn't enjoy it one bit. He was insanely jealous of her First Officer 'Chuckles'; OK, he could see why Kathy found him attractive, he was slightly less repulsive than the other primates on board.

Recently he had visited Earth with Little Q in search of amusement, it was really hard to find new activities to keep the little tyke interested. They discovered a big box of twenty first century computer games in a dusty old antiques shop , Little Q stamped his feet and had a tantrum until Q gave in. The owner of the shop waived any payment, he had dealings with the Q before and wanted to get rid of him as soon as he possible. The last time Q visited the shop they had a disagreement about the provenance of an antique, Q had turned him into a cockroach until he apologised.

When they returned to the continuum, Q snapped his fingers, suddenly a table and chair materialised with an ancient gaming machine from the twenty-first century. Little Q played the games for an hour. Each game didn't take long, they were so rudimentary. The only game that caught his interest was a simple sandbox construction game called Minecraft. It captured Little Q's imagination, he stopped telling the other members of the continuum how bored he was: instead he made intricate models of buildings on other worlds, using his imagination, Q didn't even realise he had one. Lady Q and Little Q left for a meeting with the other members of the continuum. Q decided to play the game himself while he pondered the Janeway problem. He didn't give the game his full attention so when the screen turned red and told him you died, he was surprised; his avatar Steve Q had been running across the grass and fell into a lava pit. Q had a light bulb moment, he could make this game work for him and rid himself of a rival and as an extra bonus, he saw the potential to create some mischief and mayhem - a perfect plan!

Q clicks his fingers and appears on Voyager. He keeps his form hidden so he can set his plan in motion. Janeway and 'Chuckles' are having an intimate dinner in her quarters. He still finds it impossible to see why females are attracted to the big oaf. Kathy looks into Chakotay's eyes and smiles, the jealousy hits him like a physical blow. That is enough, he clicks his fingers and exchanges places with Chakotay, with a second click Chakotay disappears from the ship along with Tuvok.

"Now I've got you all to myself, Chuckles was monopolising all of your attention." Q states emphatically.

Janeway stares at him malevolently:

"What have you done with him, I want him back, unharmed, Now."

Q is startled by her change of mood,

"Now, Now, Kathy, don't lose your temper. If chuckles is as clever and resourceful as you believe, he will be allowed to return unharmed as soon as he has completed a small test I've devised and not until."

Janeway shut her eyes and tried to breathe deeply, it wouldn't help the situation if she lost her temper. She needed to find out what Q was really up to and how she could get Chakotay back. Speaking to Q was like talking to a small child; If you pushed too hard he would have a tantrum and leave.

"What do you want Q," Janeway repeated trying to stay calm.

"A night with you and I don't mean a sleepover!" Q announced with a fanfare, a literal one of course.

"Let me get this straight, if Chakotay survives the game, you will leave us alone however if he doesn't succeed then I have to mate with you - totally out of the question! Janeway was starting to get angry,

"Oh I forgot to tell you if he dies in the game he will be dead in the real world. If you don't agree to my conditions, he will forfeit the game and will face lethal consequences."

Janeway knew by the expression on Q's face that he meant fatal consequences.

Green Eyed Q - Second Chapter

Q clicked his fingers and a huge screen appeared on the wall in the Captains quarters. Janeway finished clearing the table, then sat as far away from Q as she could get. He patted the seat next to him.

"I don't think so, I don't trust you so let's get on with it. What test have you made, I think it's only fair if I know the rules. I don't want you making things up if you lose the game." Janeway glared at him to emphasise her point.

"Nonsense Kathy, why should I cheat, perhaps you're not sure Chuckles will win" Q responded spitefully.

"I found an archaic computer game in an antique shop on Earth. The game was called Minecraft, it is a simple sandbox survival and construction game. In the game when night starts to fall, the monsters come out to play. Chuckles and his friend will have to stay clear of the monsters and hidden footfalls until the sun rises." Q explained imperiously

He continued, trying to convince the captain that Chakotay had a fair chance of winning:

"To prove to you that I'm not a monster, I will provide him with a survival chest which will contain some basic tools and food. He will have daylight to construct a shelter in which to hide from the monsters."

Janeway knew that her first officer was in serious danger because she had dented Q's ego. She needed to think of a way to appease Q and get him to return Chakotay to the ship unharmed.
