The Asholing
Rated K+
Summery: When all hope seems to leave, and there are no songs left to sing. That is when you need the Asholing. Kathryn, and the starship voyager soon discover that they need help, when they enter a region of space that seems to hold nothing, Kathryn finds herself at rock bottom, and Chakotay soon discovers how desperately she needs help… Can a tiny girl called the Asholing help to save Kathryn, and the Star Ship Voyager?
Disclaimer: The Asholing belongs to me, and so does her species, however the universe in which she lives, and all that has ever been seen on voyager or any other trek belongs to Viacom and Paramount, though I wish I owned them, then I wouldn't be having to find a way to pay for collage and having to eat soup for lunch everyday.
Prolog
Longing
Space, with its infinite size, shapes and colors, is a mystery; one that will never be solved. It's supposed to hold nothing yet it holds everything. As a child Kathryn Janeway dreamed of solving that mystery, going places that no one had ever even dreamed of, well I guess as the saying goes be careful what you wish for, because you might just get it.
Kathryn now stood staring out of one of the view ports in her ready room, letting her cup of coffee warm her hands. The stars were moving quickly leaving no doubt in the mind that they were at warp. The engines could be heard humming softly, giving off an eerie calmness. The smell of coffee flooded the room. Some days she was enthralled by being so far away seeing things that no one else has ever seen, other days like today, she was depressed, and longed for familiarity.
It has been weeks since voyager had run across anything to peak their interest. Falling victim to routine, Kathryn soon found herself dwelling on her past decisions, and the current circumstances. She moved from her position at the view port and sat down on the couch, picking up a data padd. It was an engineering report, nothing new, it was almost word for word the same as the one she had read a week prior. She tossed the padd down on to the coffee table, leaning her head back, she placed one arm across her forehead, clinching her fist, and closing her eyes.
Bee bee brupShe sighed sitting up straighter, "come in" she was looking down at her coffee cup when Chakotay appeared in the doorway. She didn't look up she didn't need to. Chakotay was generally the only one who would come by her ready room; unless there was something important that needed her attention. "Yes Chakotay"
He smiled, "am I that predictable?"
"Yes, you are" she still hadn't looked up. She was tracing the rim of her cup. Chakotay sighed and walked over to her and sat down. Even then she didn't look at him.
"Kathryn," he placed his had on to the one that was tracing her cup, ceasing it's movement. Yet even then she did not look up. "Kathryn, tell me what's wrong?" his voice was soft, scarcely more than a whisper. She turned away from him slightly, hiding her face from his view. Choosing to ignore his question. He sighed, he knew she wasn't going to talk to him, she'd been in this sort of mood in the past, and from that past experience he knew that eventually she would come and talk. "Okay, Kathryn, you don't have to talk to me now, but just remember that if you feel like talking I'm just a comm. Link away." He gently squeezed her shoulder before heading back to the bridge. The doors opened then closed again, only then did she look up.
Authors Note:
This was just an idea that I have been cooking up for some time, and I know that I have several stories that I have yet to finish, but bare with me, I always do this, but I promise that I will have finished stories sooner or latter. I hope that I have drawn y'all in and I will be updating this one with in the week, unless school gets in the way, such as my English instructor decides to pull in essay on me. Well see y'all latter and have fun!
