Chakotay moped unhappily out of his room the next morning. What kind of sadistic person, aside from Bill Gates and Math teachers, would have inflicted this kind of punishment on him? He wondered. Nothing to eat but salad for a whole week! Even leola root stew would have been welcome. Or maybe even something out of Taco Bell or an airline catering service(urrgh). But not salad!P
With a sigh he headed out of his room, only to be violently assaulted by a formless purple thingey. Before he could yelp "Call 911!", there was a flash of light, and things suddenly changed.P

The whole crew stared at Janeway in shock. "A whole week of nothing but salad?" gasped Torres. Everyone looked scandalised.P
"Isn't that being a little harsh on him?" asked Harry. "I mean, you could, like, make him watch all the presidental debates, or something..."P
At that, Paris elbowed him. "Don't give her nifty ideas, Harry!"P
Janeway shook her head. "That's my decision, and it's final." She stalked out of the mess hall.P
Once she was gone everyone started talking.P
"Neelix, you can't do that to him, you can't-"P
"Seven this is all your fault-"P
"I have to! Captain's orders!"P
"Maybe if we all gave him a bit of our food-"P
"And where in the world emis/em he?"P
"Maybe he doesn't want breakfast-"P
"That would not be logical-"P
"Yes, where emis/em he?" Seven frowned. "We should... apologize."P
Yes, where emwas/em he anyway?P

As Janeway returned to her quarters, she couldn't help feeling a little guilty. After all, Chakotay had been hungry. Was she being too mean to him?P
The she notice that there was large black Labrador puppy sitting in the middle of her room, whining.P
At once, her heart melted. She went over and picked the puppy up. It nuzzled her and whined desperately. Then a sneaking suspicion crept into her mind. "Chakotay," she said aloud, "if this is some ploy of yours, it's not going to work." She dumped the puppy on the floor. "I'll have you know Q tried to play the same trick on me." P
On the floor, the puppy began to yelp. "Awww, don't cry," said Janeway, immediately picking it up again. "Mommy'll keep you. But-"and she addressed the air again- "Chakotay will emstill/em have to eat salad for a week!" And she retired to the couch to read, stroking the puppy, who still whined softly.P
After a while, she pondered. "Janeway to Chakotay," she said, hitting her commbadge. There was no response. Janeway blinked, and repeated herself. Still the same. She glanced at the puppy worriedly. "Do you think he's angry with me?" she asked it. She decided to find him. "Computer, locate Commander Chakotay.P
"Commander Chakotay is not on this ship."P
A pause. "What?"P
"Commander Chakotay is not on this ship."P
The colour drained from her face. "This is terrible!" She faced the puppy in worry. "We've got to find him!"P

In the conference lounge, Janeway paced restlessly, wringing her hands in worry. "What if he's decided that he's sick and tired of me... or maybe he's been kidnapped... or been emkilled!/em" At that prospect, she collapsed into the nearest chair, on the verge of tears. "And the last thing I said to him was..."P
Seven looked distinctly uncomfortable. "Actually... I have something to tell you."P
Janeway gave her an intense look. "What?"P
With typical Borg bluntness, Seven admitted, "I took the peanuts and framed him."P
The shock compounded on Janeway's face, then she crumpled onto the table in a miserable sobbing pile. "I wronged him, and now he's gone! I'll never see him again to tell him how sorry I am..."P
Tuvok patted her arm. "Don't get too upset, Captain."P
Janeway looked up and gave him a pathetic look. "What do you want me to do, promote all of you and hold a celebration?"P
"That doesn't sound too bad..." muttered Harry. Torres elbowed him. Hard.P
Tuvok nudged the puppy with his foot as it lay flopped on the floor with a very resigned look on its face. "Where did you get this?"P
Janeway looked irritated. "How would I know? He just appeared in my room."P
Tuvok nodded. "Isn't it a strange coincidence that Chakotay mysteriously disappears, and this creature mysteriously appears in your room? It is not a hologram, and replicators cannot create living matter." The puppy sat up excitedly.P
"Are you trying to say that.. Commander Chakotay has turned into a dog?" asked the Doctor. "That's ridiculous."P
Tuvok shrugged. "Stranger things have happened."P
Janeway picked the puppy up. "emAre/em you Chakotay, darling?"she asked. The puppy wagged its tail wildly.P
"Oh!" Janeway clutched the puppy tightly to her. "Chakotay! I'm so sorry! Who did this to you?"P
