"You and Chekov will make wonderful parents, and we will all be here for you every step of the way." Captain Picard saluted. "And we will do our best to find Spock. However, just recently, there was a timeline clash, and he met a younger version of himself."
"A younger version? How is that humanely possible?" Pavel is confused.
"I have no idea, Chekov, but it has happened. If we are lucky, we might even be able to find your younger version. I also see that you have lost that Russian accent." Captain Picard then says.
"I have, Captain, as Saavik has helped me pronounce words properly." Pavel smiles. "It helps people understand what I am saying a bit more."
"Would you like me to beam the news back to the Station?" Captain Picard then suggests. "Because they will need to know what is going on."
"The Station can all go to hell, as they have done nothing but dismiss us." Captain Janeway shoots back. "But if you must, then I cannot stop you."
"I wasn't talking about Starfleet, as I was talking about our new Station, Galactic Academy." Captain Picard giggles. "I myself told Starfleet that on behalf of everyone, they can go fuck themselves. After that, a group of experienced personnel created Galactic Academy, which we are all now signed to."
None of us have heard of Galactic Academy, as it turns out that it is a new thing.
"What is this Galactic Academy?" Pavel is eager to know.
"Galactic Academy is a new fleet. They take care of everyone, and unlike Starfleet, they have a warm attitude towards beings of every race." Captain Picard replies. "They still expect us to wear these uniforms, but the regulations are looser, and when I tell them that you are pregnant, they will send a care package to the ship. In it will be everything that you will need for your child."
Captain Picard then salutes us and the screen goes blank. However, almost immediately, we are thrown into danger.
"What was that?" Captain Janeway asks Tuvok.
"There is a ship following us." Tuvok replies. "Scanners cannot identify where the ship has come from. Any visuals, Chekov?"
"The ship looks very much like Enterprise. If anything, we may have been found by this other Enterprise." Pavel replies.
Just then, we hear a voice. Chekov's name is mentioned, and we are surprised when the younger crew appears on screen.
"This is Captain Janeway of the U.S.S. Voyager. Please state your name and intention." Captain Janeway orders.
"This is Captain James T. Kirk of the U.S.S. Enterprise. We have come into this timeline, and we have someone that might be from your timeline." Captain Kirk replies.
"Captain Kirk?" Pavel is surprised.
"How do you know me?" Captain Kirk is surprised. "And who are you anyway?"
"I am Pavel Chekov." Pavel replies. "I worked with you many years ago. My partner, Saavik, did also."
"Sorry, but I don't know anyone called Saavik. Did you just say that your name was Pavel Chekov?" Captain Kirk is surprised.
"That's my name too." Chekov replies.
"Who did you find?" Captain Janeway is eager to know.
"We found Spock, or more precisely, Spock found us. Only problem is, there's two of us, so I am referring to Spock the elder." Captain Kirk replies. "Also tapped in on the convo that you had with Captain Picard, and I quite like the Galactic Academy idea. Now, since we are all to be stuck in the same timeline, we will need to figure out how to make everything work. Also, what is this I hear about a child?"
"I am pregnant, Captain." Pavel replies.
"And I am the baby's mother." I add. "My name is Saavik."
"So, does that mean that I am pregnant?" Chekov is eager to know.
"It does not, but if you are lucky, you might end up getting pregnant." Pavel replies.
I put my hand on Pavel's stomach and smile because our unborn child.
"For God's sake, Sulu, I'm a doctor, not a robot inventor." Bones angrily says in the background.
"What is going on?" Pavel giggles.
"Bones and Sulu are trying out new lines. They are trying to increase the anger level. It's a way to annoy the younger version of Spock. Older version is asleep right now, after a very long day because he and younger Spock helped to revive me after I got hit by Khan." Captain Kirk replies. "Don't tell me what happens next, as I know, and I've seemingly saved Spock from future death at Khan's hands."
"And then Khan died." Pavel then says. "We killed him. It was a long and tough road, but we killed him."
"We didn't kill him, as he's in stasis." Captain Kirk has no idea.
"You are wrong, Captain, as Khan is dead. We made sure of it." I correct.
"Well thankyou for correcting me on what would have been my future life. I see the Chekov the elder is getting tired, so maybe he should go and rest. After all, he is pregnant, and pregnant people need their rest." Captain Kirk then says.
The screen then goes blank. I look at Pavel, who is struggling to stay awake. I then look at Captain Janeway.
"Where are our sleeping quarters? I think we both might need a rest." I look at Captain Janeway.
"Tuvok will take you to them." Captain Janeway motions for Tuvok to stand up.
Tuvok then takes us to our sleeping quarters. It is actually a living area, complete with beds, chairs, sofas, and entertainment. Pavel is not yet showing, but it's early days, so he won't be showing yet. I help him lie down on the bed, and smile as the floating camera takes photos of us. I ruffle through his hair, and smile as he drifts off into the land of nod. I then join him a couple of minutes later, and we both sleep like babies, with my hand on his stomach and both of us smiling.
The next day, we are woken up by Captain Janeway, who has got a care package for us.
"How do you feel?" Captain Janeway asks Pavel.
"I feel okay, and pregnant aswell." Pavel smiles.
Captain Janeway hands us the care package. It is small, but dimension is not a problem as everything inside of it is big. An hour later, we are on the bridge.
"How is our resident pregnant man." Vorik asks Pavel.
"I am very well after my night of rest." Pavel smiles.
Our joy is short-lived when the ship violently rocks. I immediately rush over to Pavel, and place my hand on his stomach, so as to ensure that both he and our baby are safe. Captain Janeway looks at us, with complete worry in her eyes. Then, the screen turns on, and an unfamiliar face appears. It is not one we have seen before, and it is not of Earthling origin.
"State your name and your intention." Captain Janeway says under bated breaths.
"My name is Atar, and I am an Amaranthian warlord. You have crossed into Amaranthian territory. Leave now, or be destroyed." Atar orders.
"But we can't leave, as the ship is not moving." Vorik is worried.
"If you want us to leave, then we will need your help to do so. We cannot afford to lose any of our crew." Captain Janeway then says.
"Amaranthians do not show sympathy towards anyone." Atar is pure evil.
"For God's sake, show some fucking sympathy! We have a pregnant crew member on board, and should his unborn child suffer any harm, you will be made to suffer for the rest of eternity!" Captain Janeway sneers.
Just then, the ship is fired at, rocking it even more. Pavel and I lock eyes, scared that our baby will die because of one idiot's actions.
"Are the torpedoes online?" Captain Janeway frustratedly asks Vorik.
"The torpedoes are online, Captain. Do you want to use them?" Vorik replies and asks.
"Yes, and right now, as they are getting set to kill us despite our circumstances." Captain Janeway looks at Pavel and myself.
Vorik presses the correct buttons, and the torpedoes are fired at Atar's ship. I keep my focus on Pavel and our unborn baby. We keep getting hit, but Captain Janeway is adamant that we are going to win. The fight, however, is long and hard, as the Amaranthian ship is far more advanced in technology. We are all scared.
Out of nowhere, we are joined by Captain Picard and Captain Kirk. As it appears, they have been alerted to the situation. They alert the other crews, who help us defeat the Amaranthians. However, Atar doesn't die, as Captain Kirk has seen him before and wants him alive, so he takes Atar. Captain Picard then sends some of his men over and they help to fix the ship.
"Are you two alright?" Captain Janeway rushes over.
"We are both okay. As for what you said about the baby, was all of that true?" I want to know.
"What I said was true, but I had no idea that Captain Kirk wanted Atar alive and not dead. Still, he will suffer, as he has tried to harm your child and I am sure that whatever Captain Kirk has in mind will be a fitting price for him to pay." Captain Janeway looks at Pavel. "Are you hurt?"
"No, although I am shaken." Pavel replies.
"We have got a computer malfunction." Tuvok stands up.
"What computer malfunction?" I am confused.
"Every command given is jumbled up and the words, I cannot understand." Tuvok replies.
"Let me see." Pavel heaves himself up.
Pavel then walks to Tuvok's computer, and sees the problem.
"All it needs is a reset. Won't lose any data and won't take too long." Pavel looks at Tuvok.
"Have you seen this before?" Tuvok is confused.
"I have, as I remember one time when I tried to activate warp speed and what came out was secteral-quinterva." Pavel replies.
"That was the word that this was saying." Tuvok is surprised. "Besides, what does secteral-quinterva mean?"
"It does not mean anything, as it is an ancient computer security code. It is used to scramble incoming messages, and when it is used, the computer has to be reset." I reply.
Pavel resets the computer and allows Tuvok to resume what he was doing.
