The Bonds Of Family And Friends
Warnings: For this one, it's going over the secondary version to the Game, in which they were showing it to the members that had taken control of the Enterprise. Only this is so he can show the cast what needs to be changed and where later, so they got a way to do their own version here starting now, but from here, the focus until chapter 30 is mostly on Wesley and the crew,
And before switching back to the team, but this is not going to be a crossover story, not in the way my other story is, instead, and though the grandparents of the TNG characters are involved in the story. The story is going to be split down the middle, between one side of generation, before turning to the others and with it now, is the changes in the present are going to affect the future now.
And before they really happen, like with the trip to 1969 with Makepeace never changing and then in the next line, it's going to have him as though he was Sito after she chooses which side to side with in being an officer. So sharing the same title as the TNG stories in my other storyline, this one is focused on SG-1, as it connects his future to Atlantis, as he and Teal'C join the Atlantis contingent.
And he becomes the military leader of the Atlantis settlement, as he starts a new life there. As everything from the two time frames has ended up in their heads, as their sextet, Jacob, Landry and their fellow generals as their current selves end up in their grandchildren now as the two series come together.
Disclaimers: The characters don't belong to me, the story belongs to me and every else belongs to the movie company and the creator.
Chapter 22: The Game Recap Part II: Radio Arguments
"Why waste time in doing that exactly, Lieutenant, if this was me. I'd dodge a security team and head for ten forward here." he heard and he whispered in exasperation. "Dodge a security team and head for ten forward, do you take me for a fool right now. You really think I don't know you have security guards in every public area right now, if you're making that suggestion to me."
"At the moment right now, then you want me to get reckless so I can get arrested by our own people and the expansion goes through. But getting reckless results in the expansion, I know that and that's why it's won't work, and is exactly why I'm not trying that buster. And it's because I know that if I try that, they're waiting to ambush me here, how reckless are you exactly."
"Th game is being met on careful planning and not reckless actions right now And that attitude disqualifies the player, because it's a way for the expansion to go forward. Damn it whoever you are get off the damn channel, you're tying up the line. They need to keep it clear right now, and to answer your question, and it's because I'm not that reckless and I know they're waiting to ambush me."
"In there." he said, quoting his remark in total disgust as Dayton and Jake said it with him as he sighed as he finished that remark with a stern tone at that remark then. "You got to be kidding me, if this was me, I would keep it up to what Wes is doing now, in the distractions, on everything he's shown me so far. But that it's clear, he's my true counterpart, and Rod is my best friend, as is Stephen, but them, Ashley, Hallie how stupid do you think I am."
"What you really think I'm that crazy, that's suicide." Wheaton said in disgusted shock at his suggestion then. "Even when programmed, I knew what he was trying to do here now when he said that. And said that it was get me to screw up in training, just so he could blow my image. And in your eyes, the prize pupil, the captain's pet." Wesley said and Picard and Will both nodded as Will answered him gently as he quoted it.
"We know and we knew this, we were waiting for Charlie to say your direct thoughts, you guys are two sides of the same warrior. He knows you better then Derek did, because he's your double and vice versa, and like I said, one of you is unique. Perhaps even special, but 100 of you, 1,000, it diminishes you guys in ways you can't even imagine." he said and the duo nodded as they exchanged smiles as the adult duo did the same.
"The game doesn't have two options, let alone three, but four options to choose from and the first three are result in the expansion the fourth is a win. It's that clear buddy boy, and with that in mind, to keep from getting arrested it's by survival and stealth training. Not by recklessness now, and it's because getting reckless gets you captured, so if you intend to be a Starfleet officer."
"Then you need more then your muscles you need your mind, to survive in space you need every subject in high school, not just physical education, whoever you are if you're jealous of me or Charlie. You have a lot to learn in order to be an effective officer and the first step is by careful strategy. And knowing your opponent, but know your enemy and you defeat them."
"Know your enemy, pal." they heard him say as Dayton said it to Derek sternly as he repeated that in reverse. "It's because he's not that reckless, and he knows we're waiting to ambush him if he did try that, Hanson, and with that. Get off the damn channel, you're tying up the line, we need to keep this channel clear right now and to answer your suggestion right now in this game at the moment."
"As he considers it. The game doesn't have two options, let alone three, but four options to choose from. And the first three are result in the expansion the four is a win, and he knows that as well. It's that clear buddy boy, and with that in mind, to keep from getting arrested it's by survival and stealth training. And not by recklessness, because getting reckless gets you captured."
"So if you intend to be a Starfleet officer you need more then your muscles you need your mind as well. To survive in space you need every subject in high school, not just physical education, if you're jealous of me or Crusher, you better get over it. You have a lot to learn in order to be an effective officer and the first step is by careful strategy and knowing your opponent."
"But know your enemy and you defeat them, know your enemy pal, again if you want to continue your training now at the moment. Then you have to look at all the options here right now and without getting reckless and again get off the damn channel." he snapped at him, before they heard a shocked angered tone at that. 'Hanson, Derek is in basic training here on the ship, aw god, the damn idiot.'
'Alright thanks for telling me who that is right now at the moment buddy, he's trying to get me to show myself. so he can either arrest me himself or prove I'm just showing off right now. I don't believe this right now, Hanson is trying to get on their good side by pushing his limits and their patience further. than they can take it right now, if he's asking these questions, he's intending to try.'
"In arresting me himself, the fact that I could be the source of my inspiration, or worse, is not penetrating his thick skull right now. He wants the glory of catching me himself.' They heard and then they heard Dayton's quickly answered remark to him at that. 'How much of an idiot is he exactly, if he's thinking we'd break our strategy if our positions were in reverse, and what did he do."
"To end up training from up here?' he asked him and they heard a sigh as he said it. 'If we were in the military, he'd be in the marines, us and Robin, we're Air Force, but he's a full soldier, we're half soldier/half scientist, but to answer your question. It's he got himself arrested twice for speedballing and for not paying attention to his charges last year, before I finished that program.'
"And a practical joke that nearly resulted in a deadly conclusion, whatever reason they're sounding like this. That is possibly the next reason and if it's connected to you, you can tell me later as well. But he's on his last chance or just blown it if he's in training up here, if you're now the source of his ire. And with it, to them, we're model student officers, we're the ones they."
'And the captain, relate to as a result of getting to know each other, Charlie make it clear. He breaks orders, he's lost his shot at second in command of our team, man. I'm JCL, but their running checks on who's going to be the next. In command and the no winner is the test meant to keep our uniforms. And positions, but tonight is the test that is meant to prove who's better suited.'
'And for the 2IC position, but don't tell him that, keep up the charade until Data hits them with the cure, alright, just focus here. You, Robin and I are working in tandem with each other, but this is what the quartet are looking for. In truth mom, Picard, let alone Riker, would prefer I had another medical born cadet. In training ensign's, watching my back right now, you have my back."
'With Robin out of commission right now and with that in mind, with us medical borns we learned advanced first aid. I'm fine, I just had to fake it to get their parental instincts to start acting up. With that, just lay into him, because you're worried about me, as you're my best friend and you're watching my back. As to why there really was a bunch of shrapnel and most, if not all of it was rusted.'
'That piece laying on the table, that was the alibi needed to explain why I returned to my quarters, as to why, I needed a tetanus shot to head it off. But I needed to make it look like I really had collapsed and landed on the pieces. That I was near to in there, but that's the alibi, tell them to confirm this as you're just like me, a fellow medical born, but by the time we reach that.'
"I was too exhausted to focus, tripped, and fell, and that piece he found, that was the one that gouged me in the leg, the smaller piece was slicing my hand, and I needed to deal with it. And it's because it hit a vein, and once in a better light, I saw they were rusted and went to first aid. Got the medical equipment Porter found sitting on the table and healed the damage, before using the I.V..'
'And replacing the unit I lost, I took some iron tablets, got something to eat, in addition to the candy bar, and gave myself a real dose of adrenaline. And finished up, but tonight, once under cover, I'm sleeping off the epinephrine.' They heard as they heard the answering response aimed at the other boy as he said it. "Hanson, this not the time for this, he's recovering from a case of blood loss."
"And he's in no condition for an ambush, so if you're really that reckless that's a way to push him into a collapse right now at the moment. With one scare and panic attack thanks to MacGregor, and adding this to it. But this is going too far right now so back off, you have no clue what you're doing here right now. And he's needing a quiet place to rest after that right now anyway, as to why."
"With him to exhausted to keep going he's already collapsed and in the process ended up getting hurt. Captain, I just figured it out in why he stopped for the night here now, but the reason he found that blood smear in the hatch. And wall is because of the explosion, the added sections. But T-95 was a previous explosion site, all over that tunnel section was left over shrapnel."
"And it was from the source of his inspiration, the memory you forgot had blown up that terminal knocking out the external sensors and as a result. The last explosion we had in there left shrapnel all over the place, after two years it's rusted, he needed a tetanus shot to head of an infection and went to self induced medical care." he said and they watched Picard answer him at that remark.
"Are you sure about that, Ensign Dayton?" he asked quickly and he heard a sigh as he answered him. "Aye Sir, we may not have checked it, since Commander La Forge fixed that terminal, but with emergency lighting it's still too dark to see anything in there. With us cutting off any access to get anything to eat and the previous dose was giving out, he collapsed in that tunnel and landed on a few."
"Before he got to his quarters and by then his pants leg was soaked in blood and he went to self healing. Before getting to work on added applications regarding this. But I'm a medical born, he's a medical born, if our positions were in reverse, I'd do what he did. If fact, if I was him, I'd hide in one of the unoccupied crew quarters right now." he told him and Wesley nodded to the orders.
'Yeah alright, I'm doing that for the night, but where exactly buddy I have to make the room an unenpentrable fortress for the night. And it's locking down wherever I am so they can't find me until I trigger the alarm in the morning here. And watch the attitude Derek, or it's a stand down.' they heard to the advice he gave and a firm warning tone to Derek as they heard Hanson snap at him at that.
"Are you just trying to show off Dayton, he never even told you this, how do you know his frame of mind to know what he's doing!" he said coldly at him and he answered with a firm tone to that. "Because we're two sides of the same whole Hanson, he thinks like I do. But everything he is I share and we're the two sides of the same warrior, I know how thinks because everything he does."
"I would do to get this far right now, but we're half soldier/half scientist, but that's how. And with you being a very fresh recruit, you want to catch your quarry you have to think how he does to know what he's doing. Anticipating their next moves, why else would he use chess metaphors when talking to the duo, but because he knows how they think and that's how he's evaded them."
"In being captured this at the moment, it's a classic catch to a tactician here. For this long, it's know your enemy and you defeat them, we can do it because we've been in training for years here. So with that, we're model student officers, because we anticipate them. They know how we think, they know how we think, that's what makes a good working machine, I know his strategy."
"Because everything he's doing I'd do the same and we'd never get captured. And unfortunately, that's what's got the adult crew into this mess in the first place at the current moment. And while you're slacking off in class, we've got the job of making sure here nobody gets hurt. And while you're flying the damn ship, or worse right now at the moment, that you don't get yourself killed."
"So if we have anyone else working and involved in this, if his inspiration was on the ship. And with those words in mind, stand right now, Hanson, this is not the time for this right now. But I'm making it very clear here, you even try to go against orders and you lost your shot, get off the damn line right now. And get to your quarters, the only ones on duty tonight are me, Crusher and Lefler."
"Ensign Kurland you better take a break, stand down now Ensign, and Hanson. Stay out of this!" he snapped and Beverly sighed. "Guys was this reaction really necessary right now, because I know you're irritated at your version, but that's no reason to start a fight with the other." Sam said to this as, at that, Janet nodded in agreement as she looked between her version to their doubles with a bemused look at this.
"Yeah I agree with her on that, and this is exactly what we don't need between you." she said and Hammond nodded. "And this is exactly what we don't need if this was for real, you guys getting into a fight right now. Especially if the manhunt was focused on someone like Roga again and you tying up the line and I don't blame you. Regarding you letting him have it, but tying up the radio like this at the current moment."
"That was going too far right now, guys." Beverly said and they nodded as they watched it, but before Porter could say it, he heard the other boy snap back at him at that. "You're not the one in charge Dayton." he snarled and they watched as Dayton slammed his hand down as he growled in anger. "I don't care if I am or not, I'm a senior ensign, you're a basic training, translated you're a cadet, we're training ensigns."
"I'm your superior, so again, get off the damn channel right now. Or so help me god, I find out you broke orders and you've lost your shot, get off the damn channel right now, cadet. You're newly activated, we've been at since we were 15, so stay out of this and I'm not kidding. Aside from that you're also on medical stand down, and you're not supposed to be on duty anyway."
"So get off the damn channel right now and get to your quarters. And I mean it too Hanson, you even try to get involved in this and you're being jumped now stand right now, cadet." he snapped and Porter ended it at that. "Uh oh, yeah this is us for real once we heard this between, you, but this is me when arresting Hanson junior way too much." Damian Eric Porter said to that as he heard his grandson say it to that.
"When your student is refusing to stay out of this and starts a fight with the only other boy ensign on duty right now then you got a problem. But ending a fight between these guys, before it resorts to blows that's when our parentage really takes charge, when said parents are both off the ship. And one of them was nearly killed in a fight the month prior, our patience is thinning here." Will said to this as Porter quoted his remark to the cast then.
"Well this was definitely me saying this as we had to break up the fights between you boys once too often." he said as he injected a stern tone into a voice as he barked out orders at that. "Alright that's enough out of both of you, Ensign Dayton, we appreciate the help, but we can take it from here. And Cadet Hanson, I'm making it very clear here, but you try and get involved in this and whoever he's stalling for."
"Then he is the one arresting you, for reckless endangerment, this is not a game, it's serious, so stand down right now, and I'm warning you, if I find out you got arrested. Because you did it again tonight and tried to get involved, and you're ending up back in sickbay, because we had all we can take from you. In regarding medical arrests, we catch you and that's it, clear?" he said as they heard a quick remark at that.
"But Sir, I know how he thinks, you need my help to catch him." he said and Picard said it sternly at that remark as he answered that remark sternly then. "And this is me when dealing with an uncooperative cadet, or worse, when we have to arrest these kids repeatedly for a health vio." Hammond said as his Picard said it for him, his tone as sharp as a freshly sharpened razor blade as he said it to the other boy then sternly.
"And this is me when dealing with him or Colin, in either version right now too." he said as he heard his voice go stern then at the defiance. "No we don't young man, in situations like this leave it to the skilled professionals and Mr. Crusher is very correct, you get involved. And if we have whoever his inspiration was, catches you, that turns it into a hostage situation and it's a hindrance rather then a help, mister."
"So again, stay out of this cadet, and as if that's not enough you're still under medical watch right now. And I'm warning you right now, trying it this soon after the last one is way too dangerous, so again. If whoever he's waiting for catches you and you're ending up in sickbay under medical watch. Now get to your quarters and stay there, Mr. Hanson." he snapped at him sternly then at that.
As they watched the bemused look on his face as Wesley answered him. "Sir, it's best if you get ready to put a guard on him as well, I'm a medical and science expert, like my mother is. But I know what needs to be done to take the edge off in my case right now. Him, he never paid attention in class, if anyone needs Dr. Anenzi, then it's him. So I think you should keep an eye out, he breaks orders."
"He's getting arrested." he said to him at that. "I knew you were talking to the inner me when you said this remark, in morse that night. And I happened to agree with your opinion on that right now, to you, like always now. It's that you tried to prevent my blood pressure from going too high and you, like Charlie now. You gave me ideas to prevent it from getting worse here." he said as he heard his voice say it to the message.
As he heard two taps at that to him, then 3 more, 4 and then 2 to end the remark and he nodded with an exasperated sigh at that. "Yes, and thank you for the suggestion, I get the message. And that's a good idea as well, with him on medical watch, and light duty right now. And whatever reason for this, you better end it now, young man." Picard said, in answer to that remark to him, gently as he answered him.
"Can't do that Sir, that rest break was one thing, but I'm getting ready to settle in soon, so until you hear me leave my current location, you don't know where to look. And right now it's trying to track the route, but it's going on scavenger hunts next. And after the the last few catches at the moment." he said to him, as they heard 3 more, followed by 2 beeps, 4 and another 2, before Picard answered him.
"Yes I get that, but every time you switch locations the alarm goes off, so you do realize if we check the right one. And you're going to get caught, before you can get out of there, correct." he said and Wesley nodded. "Yes Sir, but leaving the radio going is a bad idea, as you're telling me everything. That's going on right now and with that in mind, you're just making the game harder on yourself."
"But personally I think Ensign Dayton is correct, regarding Cadet Hanson right now, so best to get him out of the search. And before someone else gets hurt, after I landed on that shard." he told him and they heard 5 taps, followed by 4 and another 5 in answer to that and he nodded with a bemused look at that. "The games are wearing thin on our patience, this scavenger hunt is enough right now."
"So what's next exactly, if you're trying to switch from hide and seek to some other game, but the sudden morse code is going a little too far right now. So what is this if you're agreeing with Ensign Dayton, regarding Cadet Hanson?" he asked and Wesley explained that remark to him. "Just trying to make the game more interesting, but at the moment, best to get him out of the search right now."
"Because like you said, if I was the inspiration for my ideas, then it could get him captured, hurt. Or killed, and that's a hindrance to you, so best to leave it to you as the experts." he said and they heard 4 taps, 5 and then 4 more and he watched as the older man nodded, with a bemused smile on his face at that. "I get that, and young man, you keep it up in getting smart with me like this, right now."
"And you're going to be in serious trouble yourself, so stop playing the radio right now." he added gently and Wesley chuckled as he answered him. "Maybe, or maybe not, but that's last message until I'm in another area. So it's going on radio silence now, so I'll get back to you later now, Sir." he said to him then as he heard 2 taps, followed by 3 more and watched as the trio hid a smile at that.
As he heard Geordi decode that last message then. "I'll take that one for a 'maybe and maybe not Sir, but that's the last time. That you hear from me like this until I'm under cover, so going on radio silence now. And I'll get back to you guys later now, Sir.'." Geordi said to him and he nodded in agreement to his remark at that. And Wesley saw him hiding a smile as he forwarded the message to Will at that.
And with him, the guards in the hall then as he said it. "What did he just tell you regarding this if you're saying that, Sir?" Dayton said to him and he explained that to them, and Wesley could see a bemused smile on his face as he answered him. "If we, or whoever he's stalling for, catches Hanson in the hallway. And after this switches directions, if he's planning on taking a resting break after this."
"And while we look for him, and after we just sent Hanson in the bed, he's armed and possibly intoxicated. And he's being placed under arrest and dragged to sickbay for another detox right now, if he did it this soon. After the last one, and that's a really good idea at the moment as well. And as to why, it's because phasers and drugs don't mix, if he's drunk and he's got a phaser."
"And someone is going to get shot after we had one injury in this and we don't need anymore so with that in mind. It's the security crew are keeping an eye out for him as well if he tries to get involved right now as well. And it's getting dangerous enough at the moment right now anyway. And without adding an inexperienced training ensign right now to the search and he's intoxicated."
"Alright Lieutenant Porter, stay in his quarters in case he tries to double back, and everyone else. In case we have a disobedient training ensign get involved even though we already told him to get to bed right now. You're on watch for two teenagers right now, one being Crusher himself and the other. Is Cadet Hanson, I'm calling out a true medical arrest in his case now Lieutenants."
"Anyone catches him in the hall he's being arrested for it and I'm not kidding young man try it tonight after we sent you to bed. And you're ending up getting arrested yourself, this search is getting dangerous enough without anyone getting hurt. So I'm making it very clear, try to disobey direct orders and you're losing your shot at promotion." he said and Wesley watched the duo nod to the order.
"Everyone in place right now?" he heard from Deanna and he heard 4 confirmations and he grabbed his notebook then and a pen as he waited. "Alright who's where exactly?" Beverly said and he heard from Greyson first. "My unit is in lounge 1." he said, before Porter went next. "My team has sickbay, Bates's unit is in ten forward and Roberts are lounge 2, but Doctor we got to get MacGregor out of it."
"He's already caused enough problems so I highly recommend you post him to guarding the transporter rooms here. Just so this doesn't get any worse, after Shimoda just barely knocked himself unconscious by screwing around with the shield in engineering, earlier." he said and he knew she nodded. "Alright, Lieutenant MacGregor, your team is guarding the transporters starting now."
"But stay clear of him now if he comes out into the open and lieutenants Bates, Greyson and Roberts, your job is keeping an eye out for him. And to repeat the captain's remark, you catch Cadet Hanson in the hall, arrest him and take him to sickbay." she said as they watched him write it down then, as the duo settled on the couch as they logged into the information he was looking up then on the computer.
"Great so what's next, wait check that, I take it back." he heard from Davidson as they heard a loud clang at that. "You had to ask, don't you remember what he said, every time we get rhetorical the system starts getting smart with us. Do you want the sound effects to keep up right now at the moment. Or just dial it down so the members of the crew that aren't on duty can sleep right now."
"Now can it already with the rhetorical questions alright now." Wesley heard from O'Brien over the radio then. "For gods sakes young man is the added sound effects really necessary right now at the moment. Because this is getting ridiculous, kiddo, so stop playing with the radio please." he heard from Bates in an add on, as he heard two taps and then a clang in answer to that as Wesley smiled at that.
"I'll stop for a while, but it gets started a second time, once I reach where I'm spending the night, Lieutenant." he said and it tapped out the next message and Porter chuckled at that as he said it. "I think he just said that he'll stop for now, but it gets started again once he's relocated again. To wherever he's planning on hiding next at the moment." he said as they heard 2 taps followed by 3 more.
In answer to that to confirm his thoughts at that. "That's actually what I meant, remember when you told me taught about morse code. I just joined that with this, knowing she would never get that, as returning to our planetary ways. And of close to 450 years it comes in handy now." he said and they nodded as they saw a smile appear on Robin's face as she lowered her head as she tried to keep from laughing.
"My god this is getting ridiculous, and kid stop playing with us like this. Would you please, now enough with the radio games now." Goldberg called out over the radio to that beeped out remark. "Nope, not yet, Rick, you want this turning into radio games and I'll do that. But like I said, every time you give the system ideas and she starts getting smart with you, so cool it already now."
"With the rhetorical questions and stupid remarks or that's going to keep up right now, so time to call it quits." he said to him and he heard the system say it in morse code and Will translated that. "Nope not yet Rick, but you want radio games and I'll do that, but like I said before, every time you give the system ideas. And she starts getting smart with you, so you better cool it now with that."
"With the rhetorical questions and stupid remarks or that's going to keep up right now, so time to call it quits, right now.'. Yeah and I could say the same thing about you kid, because these games with the radio. The sound effects and the magic disappearing acts are growing a little thin on our nerves. So stop playing with us and pull it over." he said to him, bemused and he chuckled at that.
As they heard a third in answer to that. "If I was a teenager I'd be finding this funny right now, if it wasn't for the fact my kid is draining his reserves. And that dose won't last long, at the moment and again, kiddo. That's enough of this already, so stop playing with the radio now, young man, I mean it." Will said to him gently and Wesley nodded as he hid a smile as he answered him.
"Yes Sir, I'll stop now, but like I said, every time you give the system ideas and she starts getting smart with you. So unless you want the sound effects. You better can it with the rhetorical questions." he said and they got another 2 taps, next was 3 more, and a final 4 in answer to that and he shook his head, bemused as she looked up at Will. "What's that one mean exactly?" she asked and he explained that.
"He said 'yes Sir, I'll stop now, but like I said, every time you give the system ideas. And she starts getting smart with you. So unless you want the sound effects, you better can it with the rhetorical questions now, Sir.'." he said and they nodded then as he sighed with a bemused look on his face. "Now normally I'd be finding this funny in a training game, but this just shifted from practice."
"And straight to real and it's getting it out of control, but our oldest training cub is taking the games just a little too far right now at the moment. And you, young man, and I know you're listening to this right now. If you just heard our conversation, but you keep it up with the radio games or anything else. Right now with us and you're getting caged yourself, once we catch you finally."
"Later on, it's going on midnight and that dose you took won't last long, and you know that. So it's time to pull it over, now stop playing with us like this, if you're running on fumes. But you do realize the adrenaline is going to wear off soon enough, and along with the sugar rush. It's time to take a break, kiddo, time to rest, so time to take a break." he said and they heard a gentle tap at that.
As Wesley smiled as he left the 4th of the 5 cookies in the tunnel he was in by the grate door, followed by his initials on the wall next to it, as he did several taps to Porter. "I think the playful side when we were still together. Is causing him to act like this, if this explains why we found that bag. And it's gone barely 5 minutes later then..., hold on let me check the tunnel." Porter said as he went to check the shaft.
"I found the other escape route, he came in through his bedroom grate and left through his mother's closet, as to how I know that. It's because there's a cookie from the MRE I opened sitting here and on the tunnel wall are his initials. Whatever this connects to I'm not entirely sure, but that's part of this scavenger hunt he decided on right now, so from that, now in this."
"I think the taps are his way of communicating with us in normal ways, I also think that the rhetorical questions are the reason we keep hearing that. So as a result is so every time we start getting rhetorical, and the system starts getting smart with us by doing that. Though the taps are his way of morse code just to talk to us now that he's not on the live transmission, at the moment."
"Commander." Porter said into the radio and they heard the answering response from Will, as he said it with a bemused tone to him at that remark. "Then everyone better can the rhetorical questions, because I don't doubt this is going to keep up though if he's changing directions, so be ready for it now." he said as Wesley looked around the corner of the tunnel to see them checking and then smiled gently.
Before he went down two tunnels and was in 30 feet of the cross section to J-14 baker and stopped, before he sat down and thought it over as they heard a gentle tone then. "Alright, they think Data is still unconscious right now, and in the lab at the moment, so they're not going to check the lab to see if I'm in there. Let alone he's in there, but they never checked on him there to see if he's awake."
"So where to hide exactly?' he thought before he heard Dayton answer that one, as he said it over the radio. "I doubt he'd choose one of our quarters what with the fact everyone's looking for him. But the first to get hit were you, Sir, followed by Counselor Troi and then Doctor Crusher, the android gets deactivated. And immediately following that was by Lieutenant Worf, Commander La Forge."
"And you getting affected captain, and with 5,000+ places to hide right now it could take a while. And especially with the system out of our hands and in his right now, so we got, going by this. 15 hours until the system returns to our control, so seven hours nap and rest and then relocate somewhere else. With the seven of you out of your rooms and on the bridge or the engineering room."
"I'd choose one of your quarters to spend the night in." he said and Wesley smiled at the tip. "Nice subtle hint right now, if she was listening more closely to that, she'd have checked in there and staked it out. But everyone of us and that's 45 people, in the adults too, so it could be a while to check them all. When all of us adults are on duty, but 45 members of the grouping he's close too, it could take seven hours to check them all."
"But nice thinking son, that was a great idea right now at the moment, make her so paranoid she's checking our rooms and waiting for the alarm to go off. Until she learns where he is with the fact she thinks Data is still unconscious." Levar said as he started laughing. 'Thanks pal, I'll do that, but Data is in the lab completing his modifications on the antidote to this right now at the moment.'
'My quarters are in enemy hands and I've got the others locked into the bridge and the engineering room..., yeah okay that definitely helps right now. Alright I get it, so spend the night in Data's quarters, tomorrow I relocate to Geordi's to have breakfast and create the third one, move to Deanna's. Followed by the captain next and then the commander, yeah okay got it now, thanks again, bro."
"And time to move on.' they heard as he headed for Data's quarters just as he reached the halfway point he heard 2 meows and a purr come from the section leading into his friend's quarters and smiled. 'Is that you, kitten?' They heard, translating the noises to human wording and he chuckled as he answered the cat. "Yeah Spot, it's me, hang on I'll be there in a minute, girl." he said and he heard a gentle mew to that.
"Mew?" she asked and they nodded. "That is not a cat that sounds like you, that is you girl, these are memories, images of what happened in the search. When the bad cat was looking for me, and I decided to spend the night in your kennel. But this is what we call a movie, images created by stories comes to life, well this is a true story, and this was you I was talking to now at the time." he said again and she gave a mew of understanding.
As they watched he went to the grate leading into his friend's room and unlocked it, as he opened it and they heard a third mew and a gentle thump as he pushed it open and she walked up to greet him then. Looking at her image double, her ears twitched. "Hey girl, good to see you." he said and she gave him a mew, before looking at the picture sitting on the bookshelf and he looked at it and then smiled as he answered her.
"Yeah that's me, your father is a friend and a surrogate family member to me." he said and she gave two mews and a meow to him then. "Yeah, he sees me as an adoptive son, we've been together for several years." he said and she gave another mew in answer to that. "Lal lock the room down, I'm settling in for the night." he said and he heard a beep and the cat gave a mew to that response.
"Mew?" she asked, echoing her double at that and he heard a secondary beep and she turned her head at that as she did it again. "Mew?" she said again and he heard another beep, before it started going back and forth and till he ended it. As he tried to keep from laughing. "Alright girls thats enough of that already." The entire group said together in response as they heard Wesley repeat that remark with a slight smile.
"Alright girls that's enough of that." he said as she looked at him, before her ears started twitching then as she looked him over. "Mew, mew meow?" she asked and he nodded. "Yeah I needed to heal a few injuries, so that's why I look like this, I need a bath in a bit." he said and she gave a second mew as she moved to him and rubbed her head against his gently and he smiled at that softly as he said it to Data.
"Data I'm settled into your quarters now, and the room's lock down at the moment, I'm safe, next orders." he said and Data said it softly. "Alright you just settle in, I'm getting ready to do this now, but if you want to do one last coded message. And go ahead in the way you have been doing it, that's fine so go ahead, but it's enough we send out another clear two indications right now."
"But after that, once I get their attention, you use that to shower, eat and get some sleep, you done enough for one night. And you need to sleep off the epinephrine dose after that, but just do a secondary coded message. In regarding Hanson, because I doubt he's going to follow orders." he told him and Wesley nodded as he answered him regarding that remark gently as he said it to him.
"What did the captain and Porter mean regarding Derek and his getting arrested once too often exactly, because trying it this soon, what's the said 'this' is exactly. That's something I need to know so we can get his orders taken care of. And before Derek not only puts himself at risk, but with him anyone else in the hallway right now?" he asked and Anenzi answered that one firmly then.
"Derek was under medical watch the last 2 weeks and he's on light duty right now at the moment. As he crossed the chemicals in a way that was dangerous and the reaction caused a seizure and just barely killed him. He's been under watch just to make sure that never happened twice and we were all getting aggravated at in this in the way we were Colin." he said again, before they heard Data repeat that with a stern tone in his voice.
"Derek is under medical watch and light duty ever since he had a severe reaction, just short of a month ago to the stimulates and ethanol." he said and Wesley sat up straight at that remark as he read out the subtext then. "Ethanol, he's been speedballing ever since Walters caught him. And the guys arrested him when I took that head injury, and just after the riot in ten forward."
"Alright so this is why Peter Hanson is giving me a tough time, and it's because he's ticked that you're keeping his cousin from coming to the academy, because you're trying to prevent his rumors from going all over the academy. And 2), so he doesn't collapse at the controls of his starfighter. And he's been arrested once too often, so to the entire crew, I'm their biggest distraction."
"Because Charlie is filling in for me, and they're getting beyond aggravated that they have to keep arresting Derek. Yeah okay, you catch Derek in the hallway arrest him, if he resists, we're having Lal teleport him to sickbay. Lal could you keep track of Derek Hanson's communicator and his life signs. And once your father clears the first hotspot, said hotspot my apartment."
"You're to follow orders in order of the hotspots being cleared, okay." he said and he heard a beep and Spot meowed in answer to that and he chuckled as Data answered him gently. "Affirmative Wes, I'll take care of it, but again, after you hear the alarm go off, I want you to take a shower, eat. Take a sleeping pill and get some rest, my quarters are enough no one is going to look there
"Because they think I'm deactivated right now. So for now we just take advantage of that right now, and with that in mind right now, as I'm your commander at the current moment. My orders are just that, you've done and gotten enough exercise for one night, I'll take it from here. Just get some rest, I'll see you in the morning Wes." he said and Wesley nodded to the order softly.
"Data, there's something I want try, it works and I can report right to the quartet, but if this is really like what happened with Daniel now. And after the sedative disconnected the link, he told them to wait the 12 hours as they put him under, and temporarily deactivated the link. And between him and the human demon that possessed him, it's worth a shot, so you can talk to them and me with them."
"But Charlie is the one working with us and Lal." he said to him and knew he nodded. "Yes it's a try, it works and we report to the quartet directly, but not face to face, but over the computer and we can talk from here, so Lal, I want you to put enough anesthezine into the room. Just to disconnect the link and so they can rest, close the doors and lock them no way out and they're safe for the night"
"They know you're in the system, they just forgot you were still there at the moment." he said and knew she nodded gently to the orders as they exchanged looks. "Yeah it's worth a shot right now, but do not leave the room you're safe here right now, for all we know this is a trap so they can catch you, once they try to convince they're free." Eastman said in agreement and Ashley, Gregory and Hallie nodded in agreement to that.
"Just what does she take me for, a complete idiot, I'm not likely to try anything reckless, and trying to report in person is likely to get me captured. Though I can trust their words here that they're themselves, I'm not taking chances in that area, but after playing him for the better part of 7 years. It only makes sense his version of my life just hit the table, though I love the 7 like family after 5.5 years together in this."
"I can't take the chance and we're being trained by the people in a job that beings a whole new meaning to the word absurd right now." Wheaton said and Stewart hid a laugh at the remark and nodded in agreement to that. "As I said, sometimes in life you got to bow the absurd, and we going through the most bizarre things in this job we're used to this right now." he said and Hammond started laughing at that remark.
"Yeah like one case turning into caveman another a case aging back and forth and this keeps up and one of us gets cloned and turned into a cub again. And prior to that as Jack, Teal'C and I get into a case of musical chairs with our bodies next." Daniel said and he started laughing at that. "And the said scientist you just mentioned with it, now, before we got a case of the Lornaks and Tralestas in the stargate version to that."
"But this is getting ridiculous right now after what we go through on a daily basis here." Carson said for himself, Janet and Hammond and Hammond nodded in agreement to that remark as he answered Eastman's remark gently at that. "Well you're getting on the job training here, in between episodes guys, so you train here as you learn to do this, as you're all teenagers to mid 20's now." Hammond said and they nodded to the news gently at that.
"Yeah chemical plastic surgery here, but you're 20 in 1992, Rodney's 25 and Ashley is 24, so we take off 5 to 6 years to the duo and 1 in your case. And you're all the same age now, physically now for this episode, but at the same time, when you enter working on this show, after you make your debut. The Naked Now, your training starts that day as you start working on and training in the real thing." Picard said to him and they all nodded to him.
"You had your field training in learning survival missions, knowing what was safe and what wasn't and so on, but you're being trained by us. But your counterparts as you do this, so you can act as though you're us for real, though the trio are not here, you got us training you as you do this. The SGC academy and you train here on the base in between filming each episode, while your adult peers are doing this for 20 years prior."
"And that goes for you too, Ashley, Rodney, Stephan, after you finish your making the two movies you played in now, you're in training with you out of high school now." Hammond said and they nodded to him. "So that's 4 years of training in his case and we get the same amount as we do this, as we're acting like our characters, as we also do a cross and double cross with the guy playing Nick." Ashley said and they nodded to her as Eastman took her hand.
"You're putting us in training for this, before we do it for real in these episodes?" Eastman repeated and he nodded to him. "Yeah, this episode is in season 5 you had two years playing your NOES character, and then you spend years training as you put it to the test. As you guys make it and do it one shot right now, but Enterprise in your case is a duplicate of your ship, for real." Landry said and he nodded as they smiled as they got a chance to train for real.
"Patrick, guys, all of you are getting training for 6 years leading into the start of your show, so you can throw everything you got into your performance. As you do this, so you train and work on a real version to the stage now, as we fake the hyperspace touch now." Picard's grandfather said and he nodded. "So we train on a real version to the stage we train to fight and we learn everything for real, well this should be great at the moment."
"But 1986, in your case Michael, is where you were 21, instead of 16, as you spend 7 added years in training, in addition to your knowledge in the Air Force. And you're training to become yourself, but at the moment, you're in training to be playing your character's grandson. Before you play your character at the moment here." Anderson said and he nodded as Hammond hid a laugh as Davis answered that remark gently at the news then.
"Well being in the army is pretty close to the Air Force, but I'm a colonel, before I became a 2 star general in the other branch connected to this." he said and he nodded in agreement. "Yeah you spent years doing this, so you know what you're doing right now and can do this without trouble, we just got to train Rick, Amanda, Chris and Michael, let alone Teryl, Gary and Dan, and the 10 as well for several years, so by the time you create our version."
"And you spent the better part of 16 years playing me, you know what to do and and you're ready by the time you make my rank, but the costumes, the equipment, it's all real now, we're doing it for real now this time." Hammond said to him and he nodded to him. "While the costumes now turned real and we can really get into our characters with this as we do this." Frakes said to Stewart and he nodded smiling gently at that idea then.
"What rank were you in 1986?" Anderson asked and Jack smiled as he answered him. "I just made captain in 1982, but 10 years later, I'm Lieutenant Colonel, but I'm taking my time going through the ranks, so I can keep us together, but Frank, the guys and I are all Lieutenant Colonels by the time this happens. So the best of the best, I hit my rank, and Hammond promoted me for my purple heart, he was my new boss by this point."
"So 4 years later, I'm a full bird and I stay that rank for another 8 years till I get promoted and become the 2nd in command of the base. As Hammond made three star by this point and he and I are slowing it down in the field, but I'm not leaving my boss's side, no matter what." he said and Hammond smiled as he patted his back in response and he looked at him with love in his eyes then gently at that.
"That's 2005 when you get promoted, you're staying here permanently?" he said and he nodded. "Yeah, not leaving you, Jacob and Hank, I'm staying right here, I've been serving under you so long, I can't just leave you, my best friend already feels that. Not me too, I'm not leaving your sides, ever, my place is right here, and we get him back for 10 of the 20 episodes in seasons 9 and 10." he said and they smiled at his devotion to them.
"Aye, and I'll see you tomorrow." he said and he heard a gentle smile in the android's voice. "See you tomorrow, pleasant dreams." he said and Wesley nodded smiling to that as they ended the radio call at that as he said it to Lal at that. "Lal reset the clock, it's getting reactivated 1600 hours tomorrow after the public areas are clear, and with them, Lieutenant Eric Porter and Ensign Brian Davidson."
"Once this starts again tomorrow and they're clear, and it's another coded message. Directly to the search parties tonight as well as a warning to Derek now. So with that the said warning is as directed, but all personnel are to be on the look out for a disobedient cadet. Who, despite the orders given to him by his team leader and two superior officers, is on thin ice at the current moment."
He tries to get involved and is inebriated, it's an automatic arrest and straight to sickbay." he said and he heard a gentle beep, and the cat meowed a second time and he looked at her smiling. "Alright, you got to keep quiet for the next portion, so no meowing, okay." he said to her gently and she gave him a purr at that. "Alright Derek, Cadet Hanson, again, you even try to get involved in the search."
"And you're getting arrested for it. But listen to me carefully: if I was really up to attacking someone head on would I be comming you by morse code right now. Before I deal with our adult counterparts, I know why you're determined to catch me yourself. And it's to show me up as the golden child in the eyes of the crew at the current moment here but if I was really the inspiration."
"To how I've been doing this so easily, that would get you killed or captured and to the adult crew that's a hindrance, rather than a help. And secondly I just learned the exact reason for why you're in this much trouble with the medical department. Less then a month after the previous reaction is it, well trying it this soon is too dangerous and I'm telling you now, that you get caught."
"And by my partner, or the security crews and your chances at promotion are shot. And especially for disobeying direct orders given to you by three superior officers. And one other thing, this is a medical situation my mother is calling the shots here, so even try to bring a weapon into this. If you do break orders and you're inebriated and it's getting you arrested for detox, immediately."
"So fair warning, cadet." he said and the code added the stern tone to it then. "Alright, Lal, this next one is over the computers, the messages are on terminals in both my apartment, the bridge and the engineering room. And with it now, is it's a one way link in the visual mode, I can see them, so though they can't see me, it's they're still looking at the camera at the current moment."
"And knowing I'm on the other end of it right now, once this situation hits, it's by driving her nuts righ now, in to how. It's because she can't find me right now, so with that in mind right now here at the current moment. It's another case of morse code, or in this case, Geordi is setting the computer. To translate it when each message goes through, so it's morse code in the computer."
"But none of the noise, it's a gentle tapping on the computer screen now, so do the dots and dashes in the same way as well, on the computers we're using. And it's on your father's terminal as well, along with it directed to the computers in engineering and my quarters. They're going to be able to translate the noises this way, because this is in ship coding of the 20th century."
"There's a camera in every room, but if you have to, do a link to the terminal on the bridge, my computer in my quarters. And the main computer next to the reactor door in engineering in there now. So though they can communicate to me over the computer now and my responses are over the computer. As the system is is still on right now as we do this, but with you and me in control."
"And having control of the system, they don't know what I'm doing on my end as they're trying to figure things out. And into why I chose now to break computer or radio silence." he said and knew she got the message as he said it firmly then to quartet on the bridge. "This should be good as it's not going back and forth and instead of that we get get to see you typing this in as we decode the explanation."
"I knew that portion was driving her crazy, then again just waiting for a message to let us know you were okay was wearing thin on our patience. So we knew you were settled and resting now so you could recover here from what was going on. But you just hit the midway point leading into your run in with the bodyguards of Satan now at the moment." Frakes said as they saw Bridge and Engineering appear on the screen then and nodded.
"Good word for it, Lal, replicate a copy of the video game novel, Knee Deep in the Dead, we're using it for reference right now in this. But chapter 1 is when I activated you, chapter 2 was the repeated attacks by our own people and we just hit chapter 3." Wesley said and they nodded as it appeared on the table. "This may not be the green poison he was dealing with, but it's still serious enough, I needed a shower, and time to rest."
"But if the infirmary was in the hands of the enemy go to a back up and head for the junior medical officer when the real ones are in the hands of the enemy. Until they're cured of the infliction now at the moment." he said and they nodded to that remark. "Chapter 12 in our storyline right now of this episode, but the situation for you is at the half way point, because the next three are focused on Data, before it returns to you."
"The following morning, but next to me, Eli, Eric and Guinan, we were the first to realize st what it was you were telling us as he freed us one area after another. And just after Data arrested Derek that night with you sleeping this off right now." Michaels said as they watched it switch back to the bridge as they listened tontheir conversation at that. "I don't know about you, but these games are wearing thin on my patience."
"It's been radio games all night right now, so just what is he up to exactly, if Porter found that cookie in the shaft, in my apartment. It's been close to another hour since we found that indication so what now exactly." Beverly said and Picard nodded, just as he was answering her, they heard a gentle message in morse code beeped out then, holding up his hand, he hid a sigh of annoyance.
As he realized that Wesley was sending a message to his latest trainee then. "Lovely, despite direct orders given, Cadet Hanson is going to try. And disobey direct orders given to him, and by me, you, Ensign Dayton, and Lieutenant Porter." he said and Dayton looked at him at that remark. "What's he saying if you're saying that, Sir?" he asked and and he translated the message for them as he decoded it.
"The message to Cadet Hanson, regarding the fight earlier is, 'Derek, Cadet Hanson, again, you even try to get involved in the search and you're getting arrested for it. But listen to me carefully: if I was really up to attacking someone head on would I be comming you by morse code right now. Before I deal with our adult counterparts, I know why you're determined to catch me yourself."
"And it's to show me up as the golden child in the eyes of the crew at the current moment here. But if I was really the inspiration to how I've been doing this so easily, that would get you killed or captured. And to them, the adult crew that's a hindrance, rather than a help, and secondly. I just learned the exact reason for why you're in this much trouble with the medical department."
"Less then a month after the previous reaction is it, well trying it this soon is too dangerous and I'm telling you now, that you get caught by my partner. Or the security crews and your chances at promotion are shot. And especially for disobeying direct orders given to you by three superior officers. And one other thing, this is a medical situation, my mother is calling the shots here."
"So even try to bring a weapon into this, if you do break orders and you're inebriated. And it's getting you arrested for detox, immediately so fair warning cadet." he read out and they nodded in agreement to that. "I really don't blame him for that remark, but at the moment, he's right, trying to arrest him. If he was the source of his inspiration, would result in Hanson's getting captured.
"Or killed, and that's a hindrance to us right now as well." Geordi said and Picard nodded in agreement, just as he was answering they heard a beep at that. "You hear that?" Geordi asked and they nodded, as they heard it a second time. "Where's it coming from exactly." Beverly asked as the terminal right behind them suddenly turned itself on, as it beeped a third time at them to get their attention.
"Hey guys I'm over here.'. Alright, where exactly is here, Wesley?" Geordi asked and in answer to that, he heard a fourth beep at that. And he turned around at that as Data's terminal was suddenly on then. "What the heck, what's his terminal doing on right now?" Evans said, switching places with the other man. "I'm not sure, but look." Geordi said to him and he moved to the chair and sat down at the console at that.
As he read a small sentence out loud. "Hey guys, I'm over here." Geordi read out and they exchanged looks as he sat down at that as he answered him. "Wesley, that you?" he asked and a minute later a second remark, it's tone bemused at the question, as it answered him, as they exchanged looks at this. As he answered his question, exchanging bemused looks with the trio and the added duo in the room as Wesley hid a smile then.
"Nice touch, instead of using the viewer, he's talking to us, by using whatever A.I., took control of the system. Well that's one way to go to radio silence, without all the noise at the moment." Evans said and they nodded as he read out the remark as they exchanged looks at the message. "Looks like he thinks this works better then the amount of noise made, but if morse code doesn't work."
"Then he's got a back up and it's by a computer terminal for conversations." Geordi said as he read his answer out loud then to the group then. "This was another good idea, throw her off by suddenly paging us through the computer. Viewing screen or just the way you were doing it right now at the moment, son. If that's not enough to throw her off, then nothing is now." Greyson said as he tried to keep from laughing.
