"What are you talking about Pheobe?"
Pheobe handed her the ring, and Kathryn froze. Chakotay stood reading the letter. When he finished he looked at both of the women on the couch and ripped up the letter.
Chakotay kissed Kathryn and told her not to worry.
"Worry about what Chakotay, Mark is dead, and we are going to be happy together." "What was in that letter Chakotay that has you and my sister so upset?"
Chakotay put the letter behind his back. "Nothing Kathryn."
"Then why are you hiding it behind your back and why won't you let me see it?"
"Trust me Kathryn, it's nothing that you want to see." Kathryn lunged at Chakotay making him tumble to the ground. "Give it to me Chakotay."
Chakotay smiled at Kathryn. "Not in front of your sister Kathryn."
Kathryn gave him the stare, as Chakotay handed over the letter. Kathryn read it and let it fall to the floor. "He's not dead."
Pheobe took the ring and gave it to her sister. Kathryn looked at the inscription on the ring. "our love has no ends, we will always be together even in death"
Kathryn dropped the ring to the floor and turned to Chakotay. "We have to go to the police."
"Kathryn they were already here they know about the letter. The officer dropped off the letter himself."
Pheobe turned a shade of green as she tried to swallow. "Maybe it wasn't a real officer, maybe it was Mark." TBC
