Chapter 21st Glacier
Meanwhile inside of the holo-novel Glacier. Even though it wasn't running at this particular time. Inside of the matrix of the program, the crystal entity was at rest or in this case waiting for a response from the captain of the Voyager.
Currently it has the time to wait. Since it's entire life has been one of waiting for this one particular human touch to send it home finally into another dimension.
This is going to be the first time this human touch has ever been done. And there is no way of knowing just what type of side effects there might be for the human male.
And why the captain of the Voyager vessel needs to make the decision on whether her crew member should decide to volunteer.
Inside of the captain's quarters.
Chaokay had asked his wife ...who was thinking hard inside of her private office. She lifts her head to look at her husband having just to be wearing a towel around his waist. If she had the proper time... she would no know be going after him liked an caged lioness. But she had to be sure with her decision to let Lt. Tom Paris volunteer to help the crystal entity find its way home.
"Are you all right Katherine? I know it's not the time to be asking you about your decision." While standing in the middle of her private office.
"I' m just fine Chaokay. However making this decision has been most difficult to make." She said before moving up slowly from her seat to move closer to her husband...
"I realize that Katherine...but don't you think it's Lt. Tom Paris decision to make? Even though I know that B' Elanna doesn't want it to happen."
"That is very true." Janeway said to him. Otherwise she was too close to him and too enticing. However she was able to stand her ground for the next few moments. And during that time she was able to weigh her options before finally deciding.
Chaokay knew by the way she was acting. He had the feeling that his wife finally had made her decision.
