Olivia sat in uncomfortably in the small chair in the Captain's office. In front of her sat the obese captain of the ship. His uniform seemed to be several sizes too small causing the extra skin on his neck to puff out. His skin was rough and he looked slightly sunburned. Olivia had trouble making eye contact with him. It was the first time in weeks she had seen someone other then her crew mates. The Captain cleared his throat causing Olivia to tense up.
"I'm Captain Hollister." He proudly stated, reaching out a hand.
Olivia shyly shook it.
"And you are?" He asked curiously, raising a bushy eyebrow.
"Olivia…"
The Captain nodded and cleared his throat again as if he was trying to rid his throat of phlegm. Olivia couldn't help but cringe a little.
"Well…Olivia…" he seemed to be mocking her a little bit. "I would be interested in knowing how an unregistered crew member like yourself somehow ended up in a JMC owned vessel."
"Um… That's a long story." She said, while looking down at the floor.
"Indulge me."
"Before that, can I ask what's going to happen to the others?" She asked.
"Who?"
"You know…Arnold, Dave, Kristine, Kryten and the Cat." She focused all her attentions on her hands instead of the Captain.
Captain Hollister began to get irritated with her lack of respect for him. "They will all be tried, as will you, unless I get some information from you."
"Well I showed up in a stasis pod-"
"Wait a minute, why was I not informed of this?" he demanded.
"Um… because you weren't alive…"
He stared at her as if she had just said that she was possessed by circus clowns.
"Wait… you mean you don't know what happened?" Suddenly she began to catch on to what was going on. He didn't know that he had just been resurrected and was 3 million years into the future, and frankly Olivia didn't want to be the one to tell him, but who else could? She was the only one around that knew, except for the others, but where were they when she needed them?
The confused stares from the captain continued.
Olivia sighed. "I am not completely sure of the story… I was only just told myself a little while ago and I scarcely believed it…" Olivia tried as best she could to repeat the story Kryten had told her the first day she arrived on this ship.
Now the captain was staring as if those circus clowns had just appeared from thin air and set her hair on fire. "You expect me to believe that?" he snorted.
Olivia looked down at the floor.
He continued manically laughing.
"It's the truth!" She tried to redeem herself.
The Captain finally gained control. "Olivia… Have you ever heard of a mind scan?" he asked.
She shook her head.
The captain handed her some papers. "I'll have someone escort you to a spare quarters for the night. I expect you to read and sign these. You and the rest of your little crew will meet with me tomorrow morning. Dismissed." The captain continued to giggle as Olivia got up from her chair. Before she reached the doorknob, it began to turn and the door opened. A male figure stood before her.
"Ah, Mr. Todhunter… please escort this young lady to a spare technician's quarters."
Olivia looked up catching the man doing a quick salute and pulling her out the door. Her eyes focused on his face. She has seen it many times before! With this realization her stomach quickly became red hot with adrenaline. It was him! The man from her dreams! The face that always appeared. The face she had associated with fear. It had haunted her since she got here. Here was the figure in which that face belonged to standing before her, clinging on to her arm. Her heart beated faster. Was that really him, or was her mind just fooling her?
"Follow me." He said forcefully.
Same voice! Olivia stood still, nearly in shock at this.
After several attempts of getting her to move Todhunter forcefully pulled at her arm getting her to move, dragging her to a lift.
She had to get away from him! He soon pulled her into the empty lift. Not a place she wanted to be with him! He was still tightly clinging on to her arm. Olivia was too frightened to move. Once the lift door opened she just wanted to rush out as fast as she could, but her body didn't allow her, it was in frightened deer mode.
Todhunter sighed and dragged her out of the lift and down one of the hallways. Olivia's legs still did not allow her the power to run or anything. She just wanted to get away! The fear paralyzed her. Finally at the end of the hallway, Todhunter opened one of the metal doors. Finally he let go of her and handed her the papers the captain had given her.
"I'll see you in the morning." he said, giving her a peculiar smile.
Finally, after what seemed like ages, he walked away. "Close!" Olivia squealed franticly. The door did as instructed. Olivia rushed over to the small bunk and toppled over on it, clinging to the small pillow, tears streaming from her eyes. She was in trouble! Of all the people that that could have been, why had it been him? For the first time in weeks Olivia really felt her brain was alert. Her mind was flooded with unfamiliar thoughts. Not just pure fear, but she was retrieving memories! She continued to cling to the pillow and breath heavily. Kryten had told her that a reminder of her past might retrieve her memory, well that was a reminder of her past. That was it. He was the one who turned her life into the hell it was. He was the reason she had retrograded herself and became devoured by fear every day.
~
In all her fear and panic, Olivia had forgotten to read the papers given to her. She checked the small clock. It was 8 am. She must have eventually fallen asleep last night. Her stomach churned as she remembered what had happened and she was instantly filled with the same fear as the previous evening. She quickly grabbed a Space Corps pen and signed her name sloppily on the papers. He was coming to get her, and soon.
Right on cue her door opened. There he stood. He hadn't even knocked first. It was as if Olivia has been hit with an arrow, because she automatically became alert at his presence.
"Well Miss Angeledis, its time for your meeting with the captain. I trust you have looked over the papers." he had an odd tone in his voice that made her shiver. She managed to nod. Instead of allowing him to drag her again she cautiously rose from her bunk and began to follow him. What choice did she really have? This time the lift was not empty, which gave her some comfort. They soon reached the captain's office again. Todhunter held the door open for her.
Olivia looked inside his office, It was not as empty as it was the day before, but there sat Arnold, Lister, Kristine, The Cat and Kryten. She took a sigh of relief as the door shut behind her and Todhunter didn't enter.
"Well Miss Olivia, have you reviewed the papers?" Asked the captain.
She nodded and handed them to him and sat next to Kristine, who automatically noticed the look of panic upon her face. Kristine looked at her with a concerned expression but remained silent.
"So, you are all familiar with the mind scan?" Asked the Captain.
"Yes sir, we are." Lister replied.
"Alright then, please sign those papers and seal them in the envelope provided." Said Captain Hollister.
~
"Well Miss Angeledis… Until this trial is over you will be working in the kitchen washing dishes."
Olivia wondered how he had found out her last name, as she had never told him. "Yes sir." She mumbled, not very happy about this.
"I expect you to be in the kitchen tomorrow at 8 am. Dismissed."
Olivia got up from the chair. She had finally been able to change her clothes and get a good shower. She was borrowing some of Kristine's clothes.
~
Olivia stood in the kitchen the next morning, hands covered in suds, scrubbing dishes from the breakfast in the officer's mess hall. They had the expensive fancy dishes that all had to be hand washed. It never stopped! By the time she would be finished with these, the lunch dishes would be ready. The other people in the kitchen all seemed to know each other and be carrying on a conversation. They had not been very welcoming to Olivia. She sighed and picked up another plate out of the sink of suds and began to scrub.
"Did you hear about Rimmer?" One of the women said.
Olivia looked up in their direction.
"He is so sexy! Did you hear, he shagged McGruder last night!"
"Not only that, but I heard he fooled around with some of the officers last night in the cargo bay."
Olivia was so shocked that she dropped the plate she was scrubbing it, shattering it all over the floor. Were they talking about the same Rimmer? The Rimmer she had recently seen in a quite embarrassing blackmail video tape revealing him quite pathetically, yet adorably whining over how he had never been loved?
The other women stared at Olivia and the broken dish she hadn't even seemed to notice. Finally she realized they were staring at her and quickly crouched down to pick it up. That was so strange! Why were women suddenly interested in him? That thought bothered her a little. The other woman began to talk, this time quieter so Olivia could not hear them but every so often she would hear his name come up, and every time it made her a little more anxious.
~
"Lister, what are we going to do? If we don't find those nanos no one will ever believe our story! I'll go to the brig and never become an officer!" Whined Rimmer
Lister sighed. "Look Rimmer, you never _were_ going to be an officer, and you were the one swigging down the sexual magnetism virus and sleeping with half the crew instead of working on our case!" Lister Cringed at the thought.
A big smile arose on Rimmer's face. "Ah yes."
"You disgust me, Rimmer!"
"You couldn't honestly tell me you wouldn't do the same thing given the opportunity to bonk Kochanski, Listy."
Lister's eyebrows rose. "Um… can I see that for a moment?"
"No! I had it first!" He said, shoving the little red vile behind his back.
Without warning, Lister dove on top of Rimmer, struggling to grab the vile. Then for the first time, he noticed Rimmer's body. It was the same as it had always been, but Lister couldn't help think it was a little more, well, sexy. Below the tan shirt, lean muscles rippled in the struggle. Lister gazed lustfully into Rimmer's eyes. Rimmer looked back at Lister, feeling more than a bit uneasy. The instant the thougths entered Lister's mind he dove backwards, screaming and hitting himself repetitively in the head, not believing he had actually thought that.
"Rimmer! How much of that did you take?!" He shouted, refusing to look at him.
Before either of them could say anything more, the hand held scanner began to beep. Lister, looking for a distraction, instantly rushed over to look at what was going on. "Brilliant, man!"
"What?"
"The scans are detecting the nanobots!"
The 2 of them spent the next hour searching frantically in every corner of the room for the little robots.
~
Several days later, after their case was reviewed, the Captain, after reviewing the nanobots as evidence, realized that their story was true, as hard as that was to believe, and they were all allowed to go free. Lister and Rimmer went back to Z shift, and Kochanski went back to being an officer. Kryten also became a part of Z shift, and the Cat was having several tests run on him. As for Olivia, she was given a part time job in the Science department.
Olivia timidly sat on top of her bunk, wearing a beige space corps uniform. She thought she had it hard when she was on Starbug with the crew, but this felt worse than anything. She was still confused about why she had been so jealous of other people sleeping with Rimmer. It was…well… Rimmer. Her mind was in a constant panic and nothing seemed to be going right for her. She was retrieving more of her memory. It started to come back after seeing Todhunter. First small details of her life, then more. The memories of her life weren't pleasant. She could remember earth. Her in her early twenties. All her friends were succeeding in the real world. That's when her depression had started. It wasn't anything serious at the time, but enough for her to start sessions with a therapist. After leaving college and losing the structure in her life, nothing felt the same for her. She just wanted that back.
She had always been interested in science. When she was younger she always was reading scientific magazines and journals, or checking out new electronics. During the time of her depression she happened to come across a new scientific advancement, The stasis field. This fascinated her. She wanted to know everything about it. For the next few months she continued on with her odd obsession for the stasis field until finally she came across the opportunity to work in a lab testing it. She had become part of a small research team working with it. After months of testing, her team, thinking they had been successful, wanted to test it out on a human. Olivia had been one of the most dedicated ones on the team, so she had volunteered. Her team was not sure if this was smart, but decided to go ahead with the test anyway.
The next thing Olivia could remember she had woken up in a strange place. Something had gone wrong. No one in this place knew what had happened, and as much as Olivia tried to find out why the test hadn't worked, there was nothing. She was hundreds of years from her time period and on a strange planet. The planet was called Mimas. She had eventually gotten used to Mimas and started a fresh start at life, until it happened.
That was all she could remember. Olivia still didn't know how she had ended up here.
In the last few days Olivia had not seen the others much except for the trial. She had not told any of them about her encounter with Todhunter. She wanted to tell Kristine, and also knew Kristine had been sensing her fear the entire time. She was almost too scared to venture out of her quarters, but she had to for her job training, and to eat, but that was about it.
~
Olivia laid on her bunk in the middle of the night, finally allowing sleep to come. It hadn't been easy to sleep for awhile, but she was exhausted. Finally, her eyes shut and her body drifted off into sleep. She was too asleep to hear the creaking of the floorboards moments later. She rolled over on her bed, eyes opening for a moment. Above her bed was the figure of a man lingering over her. Olivia screamed at the top of her lungs. He was holding something, but it was too dark to see what it was. Her heart raced and she was once again in frightened deep mode. This time nothing happened. He was gone faster then she had seen him. She knew right away who it had been.
"Lights!" She finally shouted. The bright blinding lights flashed on. Olivia saw that her quarters was empty. She knew she had seen what she saw! She hugged her arms around her knees and sat like that for the rest of the night.
Once it was finally morning, she pulled on her uniform. She was almost too tired to stand up, but she had to go to her job training. While walking down the halls she passed by Kochanski.
"Olivia!" She said.
Olivia looked up, but said nothing.
"Oh my gosh you look exhausted!"
Olivia was a little timid to tell her why.
"Olivia, what's going on?" Kristine finally demanded.
Olivia knew she had to tell her. "Can we talk about it in my quarters?" She asked
"Sure." Kristine agreed.
The walked back down the hall in silence until reaching her quarters. Olivia sat down on her bunk.
"Olivia, you look terrible! What's the matter?" Kristine asked again.
"My memory." She mumbled.
"You mean you're getting it back?"
Olivia nodded. "It's not just that though."
"I'm listening."
"That one officer that escorted me to my quarters after I met with the captain.., he looks so familiar. I am almost certain it was the guy from my dream."
"But that makes no sense…"
"Yes it does, because I was testing out one of the new stasis pods back in my time, and something happened and I had ended up on Mimas, 200 years later."
"That's really strange… Who was the officer?"
"I can't remember his name."
Kristine nodded. "If anything happens you let me know. You need to get to work!"
Olivia nodded. She had not told her about him being in here last night. Would she really even believe her?
~
AN: Wow... Plot! To be continued...
"I'm Captain Hollister." He proudly stated, reaching out a hand.
Olivia shyly shook it.
"And you are?" He asked curiously, raising a bushy eyebrow.
