Chapter 3: Disappearance

Once I come to, I rub my eyes and sit up. Staring at my finger tip, I see a slight see through tint of them. My eyes grow wide and I see Tom walk in. I smile in delight as he walks over to the bed.

Tom stares at the bed scared and states, "Where is she?"

"I'm right here." I state to Tom reaching out to touch his hand only to go right through it. I stare at him, my eyes widening.

The Doctor rushes over and places his hands on the bed going right through my legs. He states quickly, "She was right here." He rushes around sickbay checking the computers.

Tom becomes frantic. I hop off the bed and follow Tom. I wave my hands in front of him, I scream his name, but nothing works. I catch a single tear run down his cheek. I can see it in his eyes…He is in love with me…or should I say was. As far as he knows I dematerialized, but I didn't I'm standing right in front of him.

"Tom to the Captain, Come to sickbay," He sighed.

"Acknowledged." Janeway said from his combadge.

"Tom!" I scream, placing my hand on his cheek. "…come on Tom, I'm right here!"

"There's traces of her DNA in this room…" The doctor says hovering over his computer. "Computer, Locate B'Elanna," The Doctor states.

"B'Elanna is located in Sickbay."

"This makes no sense…" The doctor questions flinging his hands across his computer and motioning Paris to come to him. "This was her DNA structure when she came in, see it was erotic." He points then clicks more buttons, "This is her structure after I gave her hypo sprays, it was normal to the human eye, but when you look closely her DNA is missing key components."

"So her DNA just vanished?" Tom questioned The Doctor.

"Not vanished, Lieutenant, It seems that substance broke it down and destroyed it." The Doctor stated hastily.

"So she is gone?" Janeway said from behind them, leaning against the door frame. One hand on her hip the other in the air.

"It appears that way." The Doctor sadly admits.

"Appears Doctor?" Janeway states walking over and leaning over his shoulder.

"Well there are still traces of her DNA and her signature since the computer can pick her up." The Doctor states to Janeway.

"The question still is Doc, is she gone?" Tom repeats what Janeway had said moments earlier.

"As far as we know…yes she is gone, we may not be able to get her back…But I will try to find something." He says, typing commands into his conn.

"Let's hope for a miracle…" Janeway says as she crosses Sickbay and leaves.

Tom walks back over to the bed I laid in and runs his hand across it, "B'Elanna, if your out there…we gotta find you." He whispers, "I can't lose you..."

"I'M RIGHT HERE!" I cry out, collapsing on the floor. "I'm right here…"
