Part 1
"Sigh," Counselor Usagi Tsukino-Saotome (Starfleet, Captain) says, as she looks out into deep space, as the Bajoran Wormhole opens and closes.
"Penny for you thoughts?" says a familiar voice.
Usagi turns around.
"Oh, hi, Jadzia," Usagi says, as she smiles. "I was just thinking about Ranma."
Science Specialist Jadzia Dax (Starfleet, Lt/Commander) chuckles at the comment.
"What?"
"Are you missing him because he's your husband, or because you miss being WITH him?"
Usagi gives the Trill "the look".
"What? You're jealous or something?"
"What? ME jealous?" Dax says incredulously. "Just because we briefly dated-"
"It was your previous host Qurzon, a GUY, that I dated," Usagi says. "Honestly, aren't Trills suppose to be able to move beyond their past lives or something?"
"Humph," Dax says, as she begins to turn away. "I know when I'm not wanted…"
As Jadzia walks away, Usagi whistles for her attention.
"What?" Dax says with an annoyed look.
Suddenly, Usagi runs towards Jadzia, leaps and-
GLOMP!
"Oh, Dax," Usagi says, as she snuggles in Jadzia's arms. "You can be TOO serious at times…"
Dax merely sighs contently.
"Uh-hum," says a voice.
Dax and Usagi turn to face their commanding officer.
"Am I…interrupting something?" says Station Commander Benjamin Sisko (Starfleet, Captain).
"Ah, no," Dax says, as she lets go of Usagi.
BUMP!
"Ow," Usagi says, as she struggles to get up off the floor. "Warn me, next time…"
"So, what is going on, Benjamin?" Dax asked.
"Well, we have two arrivals…and both of them are of great importance to our 'favorite' Counselor."
"Oh?" Usagi replied.
Meanwhile…
"Coffee…hot," says Starship Commander Kathryn Janeway (Starfleet, Captain) to the replicator.
WRRRRR-!"
"Mmmm," Janeway says, as she takes her cup. She then turns to her special guest.
"You want anything, Commander?" Janeway asked with a wiry smile.
Intelligence Specialist Ranma Saotome (Starfleet, Commander) merely folded his arms.
"What are the parameters, Captain?" Ranma says with a smile.
"Oh, please," Janeway says, as she takes a sip. "You know I'm engaged to Mark."
"Ah, yes…Mark Johnson."
Janeway lowers her cup.
"What?" Janeway asked.
"You know, you can do better than marry another scientist."
"You're not jealous, are you?"
"Me? Jealous? Look, I KNOW you…and I know that you need someone to compliment you. And Mark is not it."
"If I need advice from a known womanizer, I'll ask it. Right now, I am happy with my impending marriage, and my new command over 'The Voyager'-"
SSSS!
The door to Janeway's office opens.
"Mom, here are the latest sensor readings on the Badlands," says Science Specialist Katrina Janeway (Starfleet, Lieutenant).
"Thanks, dear," Janeway says, as she accepted the data pad from her teenaged daughter. "Dear, you remember Commander Saotome?"
Katrina looks over to Ranma.
"Oh, yeah," Katrina says, as she goes over to hug Ranma. "It's nice to see you again, Commander."
"Same here," Ranma replied. "Oh, and congratulations on your promotion."
"Why, thank you. Serving aboard 'The Enterprise' is one experience that I don't want to give up."
"I don't think ANY of us wanted to give up the Enterprise-D, if we had a choice in the matter."
"Well, I'm just glad no one had died."
"Thank goodness for THAT."
"Well, I better resume my duties," Katrina says, as she turns to leave. "Nice seeing you again."
After Katrina leaves, Ranma turns to Janeway.
"Your kid is quite the young woman," Ranma says.
"You mean OUR kid," Janeway says.
"Hey, as long as you won't tell her that I'm her father-"
"Look, we've been over this," Janeway says with a sigh. "It's one thing for me being a single mother; it's another thing to be a single mother whose 'baby's daddy' is a MARRIED legendary figure…with lots and LOTS of enemies. As far as she is concerned, her biological father was a 'donor'."
"Humph. I would think that I was more than THAT."
Janeway goes over to Ranma, and hugs Ranma.
"You were more than that, Ranchan. You were my teacher, and my friend. And our daughter was a gift that is priceless. And I thank you for watching her during her first tour aboard the Enterprise."
Ranma hugs back.
SSSS-!
"Ma'am," says First Officer Aaron Cavit (Starfleet, Lt/Commander) as enters. "We're about to-"
Cavit stops for a moment, and sees Janeway and Ranma breaking their hug.
"Am I interrupting something?"
"No, you weren't," Janeway says. "It's…just a bit of wrapping up old business with an old friend."
"Er, right," Cavit says. "I just wanted to inform you that we'll be at DS9 within the hour."
"Thank you, commander. Carry on."
After Cavitt leaves, Janeway turns Ranma.
"You know, we have to be careful about how we conduct our selves. I just GOT this command, you know."
"Feh," Ranma says. "With MY reputation? I'm surprised that there isn't a betting pool on hand on how long you and I 'hook up' before we get to Bajor."
"You definitely have a point there…"
"But, you do know that legally, upon Kat's 21st birthday-"
"I KNOW. Look, could you respect my feelings on this?"
"Sure. But don't forget that I promise to be there for you, if you need anything. Okay?"
Janeway takes Ranma's hands.
"Okay."
