"captain this shouldn't be possible"

"I know chief see if you can't confirm it's them"

"but sir it would be the same call sign"

"I know that just do it chief"

"yes sir, DS9 to USS JEWEL respond"

"this is Captain James of the Jewel we read you loud and clear DS9 though I don't think we can be called by the admiral any more"

well Jewel was at OPS and heard her old captain and immediately answered their concern

"well than captain I propose calling you guys the USS SURVIVOR that is if everyone approves of it"

"admiral that means you made it out alright"

"yes but very annoyed at you guys you knocked me out even though you knew my history"

"yea well we knew they would listen to you better than a bunch of others who just so happened to survive the Delta Quadrant for nine long years"

"that still doesn't mean you should've sacrificed yourselves for that"

"whatever can we dock?"

Sisko speaks up "yes you can"

And so they get there and people start talking when one of the officers decided to make some trouble by saying it wasn't them which made the captain reveal their new weapons

James unsheathed his sword and pointed it at the officer "I wouldn't say that again if I were you"

Jewel came down and found out what had happened and then decided to speak up

"James what about the bow and arrows?"

"simple admiral we got rid of them when we realized we survived our crazy plan we knew we would be declared dead so we immediately started looking for new weapons and we ultimately decided on the Katana"

"well looks like even though you're no longer part of my crew it's still instilled in you to have a secondary weapon but I don't know if you'll be allowed to have them even though we were allowed the bow and arrows"

the president was actually there for a visit and an update and had seen the katana in action and had decided to let them keep the weapon

"actually admiral I'm allowing them to keep the weapon however unlike with your crew anyone transferred on to the Survivor won't be required to know how to use a Katana"

"understood sir and thank you for accepting the admiral's suggested name for us"

"it only fits since you guys are survivors"

"we'll give our official report after we eat we've had field rations for the past month and a half"

"ok that means Quark's"

"indeed it does admiral indeed it does"

and so they eat and then update everyone on what had happened to them while they were thought dead

"and so we fought like crazy to get home and while we were doing that we were also making sure that you guys were safe by diverting whatever forces we could away from the main fighters"

"that's interesting James but why didn't you ever contact us?"

"oh that's simple admiral while we had communication abilities we decided to make people think we were dead so that we could be a more effective force against the enemy"

"I think I understand but that doesn't mean you guys aren't in big trouble for lying to us and not letting me know that you were alive"

"sorry but like I said it was to help you guys"

"I know it's just, I don't like how you guys did it that's all"

"I understand now come on we both have places we need to be and now that we're officially back in the battle my crew has to get going to catch up on what we've missed"

Jewel just nods and then makes a comment that was very true "you know it's still a little hard to believe that it's now your crew solely instead of our crew"

"I know it took me a solid month to get used to the idea that you weren't coming to back me up"

"well I'm sure you did fine without me to guide you captain after all you took care of the crew when I was in a coma for a year"

"yea but that was because I thought you weren't coming back"

"I know captain but still I admire the fact that you took good care of the crew in my absence so

I know that you can take care of them now full time"

"you're right I guess I can it's just annoying that my weapon isn't going to be required"

"it's a short ranged weapon James of course it's not going to be required to know how to use it"

"you're right but still like I said it just doesn't feel right if we have a bow and arrow since it's supposed to be for your crew solely"

"I know but I'm sure that if need be you can pick one up and use it quite effectively"

"you're probably right about that after all that was the only way for us to survive it's muscle memory"

"indeed it is"

"well I'd best go admiral I have my crew to take care of and you have yours"

well suddenly the intruder alarms sounded and both of them get a very determined look on their faces

"I'll tell my crew to take the north part of the station"

"than my crew will take the south"

"watch your back"

"same to you admiral"

"tell them that if they don't find anything to get back to the Promenaed it's time that we work together again plus if they can't find anything and my crew can't find anything than we should work in pairs to have a better field of searching"

"will do"

well it turned out that the solo searches did nothing to help them and both groups were frustrated finally they met at the Promenaed
