Seven's life is in danger and is forced to undergo the fail-safe procedure that will change her life forever.
Title: Resistance is Futile - Act Nine
---------------
ACT NINE
FADE IN:
INT. BRIDGE
JANEWAY
How the hell did you get here?
CHAKOTAY
It's a long story...lets just say we had a little help from
our friends from Unimatrix Zero.
JANEWAY
This should be good. Get yourselves cleaned up
and fed. Then report to sickbay. Report to my ready
room in two hours.
Both Chakotay and Seven acknowledge their Captain and head for the Turbo lift.
INT. TURBO LIFT
In the Turbo Lift, there is no eye contact and an uncomfortable silence.
CHAKOTAY
(turns toward Seven)
Seven, we have to talk about what happened down
there.
SEVEN
(avoiding eye contact)
There's plenty of time to talk. We must follow
the Captain's orders.
CHAKOTAY
Computer...Halt Turbo Lift.
SEVEN
What are you doing?
CHAKOTAY
What needs to be done.
Chakotay unexpectedly grabs Seven by the shoulders and forces a kiss on her. She resists at first but then gives in to him with more intensity. Chakotay breaks off the kiss leaving Seven wanting more. When they stand apart they are left smirking at each other.
CHAKOTAY
Computer...Resume Turbo Lift. I'm glad we had
this talk.
SEVEN
I concur.
The Turbo Lift stops at deck 9. Seven exits and heads for her quarters. She takes a sonic shower, changes into a clean uniform and heads for sickbay.
INT. SICKBAY
DOCTOR
Hello Seven, how are you feeling?
SEVEN
Tired.
DOCTOR
Well, that's not surprising after what you've been
through the last couple of days.
The Doctor runs his medical tricorder over Seven and waits for the results.
DOCTOR
Seven, do you have any complaints? Any problems
with your visual acuity?
SEVEN
No. But I am fatigued and require sustenance.
DOCTOR
Hmm. You're hormone levels are elevated and your
pupils are dilated...Interesting. We can talk about this
tomorrow. Since you're tired, I'm going to let this go
for now but I want to run some tests on you after
you've had a good night sleep. Report to sickbay
tomorrow before your shift
SEVEN
I will comply.
Chakotay enters sickbay as Seven is about to leave. The Doctor notices Seven's change of expression and runs a quick scan. He acknowledges an emotional response, smiles, but says nothing. Seven exits sickbay and heads for the Mess Hall.
CHAKOTAY
Is everything all right with Seven?
DOCTOR
(running a tricorder over Chakotay)
Yes Commander. But just to make sure, I'm going
to run some tests on her tomorrow morning.
CHAKOTAY
(concerned)
Why? Do you suspect something?
DOCTOR
Why all the questions Commander? You seem extra
concerned about her all of a sudden.
CHAKOTAY
(defensive)
So I am. I'm concerned about every crewmember. Is
that a crime?
DOCTOR
(smiling)
Not at all. You seem healthy enough. You just need a
hot meal and at least 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep.
CHAKOTAY
Thank you Doctor. I'll leave you to your work.
Chakotay exits sickbay, heads for the Turbo Lift and enters the Mess Hall where Seven of Nine is sitting at an empty table. After retrieving a tray of food from the replicator he approaches her.
INT. MESS HALL
CHAKOTAY
May I join you?
SEVEN
Of course Commander.
Chakotay takes the seat across from Seven of Nine.
CHAKOTAY
I'm sorry for grabbing you like that in the Turbo
lift, I just couldn't resist you.
SEVEN
(smirking)
Resistance is futile.
CHAKOTAY
(smiling back)
For some reason, that doesn't sound as intimidating
as it used to.
As their conversation continues, Tom and B'Elanna enter the Mess Hall and notice the intimate dialogue taking place between Chakotay and Seven. They sit across the room and continue to observe.
B'ELANNA
Will you look at that. They seem to be enjoying each
other's company.
TOM
Well, they were down on that planet for a while.
Should we bother them?
B'ELANNA
Nah...Let's leave them alone. I'll get the scoop from
Chakotay later.
TOM
Do you think he'll talk?
B'ELANNA
I don't know. If he doesn't I'm sure I can get it out
of Seven.
TOM
Since when did you two become buddies?
B'ELANNA
Since we became the Doctor's prisoners.
Seven and Chakotay dispose of their trays and head for the Turbo Lift to meet with Captain Janeway.
INT. READY ROOM
JANEWAY
How are you two feeling?
Both look at each other, say nothing and then speak at the same time.
CHAKOTAY & SEVEN
(simultaneously)
Fine.
JANEWAY
(looking suspiciously at both of them)
I'm glad to hear that. What happened down there?
You said our friends from Unimatrix Zero are involved.
The Resistance? What are they doing on that planet?
SEVEN
It seems General Korok's has coordinated his efforts with
other liberated Borg vessels. They plan to infiltrate the
Queen's vessel and release a nanovirus in the primary
unicomplex. If they're successful, this will disrupt the
Queen's control of the Hive Mind. They request our
cooperation.
JANEWAY
They're plan is ambitious. This explains what Harry and
Tuvok discovered regarding the interference. They said it
had a transwarp signature.
CHAKOTAY
That's correct. The interference band is on a triaxilating
modulation to keep the Collective from locating the
Resistance. They've also agreed to extend the signal to
Voyager to hide our presence. They plan to meet with
the other vessels tomorrow and coordinate a strategic
attack. We should offer our assistance.
JANEWAY
I agree. Any chance to inflict chaos on the Borg is an
opportunity we can't pass up. We need to contact
General Korok. Do we know what role he has in
store for us?
CHAKOTAY
Not yet. They've transferred their frequency to our main
computer so we can communicate with them.
JANEWAY
Well, let's get started.
All three exit the Ready Room and enter the Bridge.
INT. BRIDGE
JANEWAY
Harry, open a channel using a triaxilating
modulation.
HARRY
Acknowledged. Channel open.
JANEWAY
This is Captain Kathryn Janeway of the Starship
Voyager. How may we assist you?
GENERAL KOROK
(O.S.)
This is General Korok of the liberated Borg vessel,
Resistance One. Have you decided to join our alliance?
JANEWAY
My officers have briefed me on your plans. We are at
your disposal.
GENERAL KOROK
(O.S.)
Thank you Captain Janeway, once again, your help is
accepted and appreciated. Let us meet and coordinate
our efforts. We will transport you to our vessel.
JANEWAY
Acknowledged. If it's all right, my Tactical Officer
will join us.
GENERAL KOROK
(O.S.)
That is acceptible.
Within minutes, Janeway and Tuvok disappear from Voyager's Bridge and re-materialize inside the Borg sphere.
Later that evening Seven is in her quarters restless and unable to sleep, she decides to review General Korok's battle plan which is then interrupted by an unexpected visitor.
INT. SEVEN'S QUARTERS
door chime
SEVEN
Enter.
CHAKOTAY
Am I disturbing you?
SEVEN
No...I was awake. Can I get you something?
CHAKOTAY
No. Thank you. I'm fine. I had problems getting to
sleep. I...I couldn't stop thinking about you.
SEVEN
Explain.
Actions speak more than words.
Chakotay approaches Seven and reaches out with his right hand and strokes her cheek. His hand travels to the back of her neck and guides her lips to his. She returns his kiss with more vengeance as they hold each other in a tight embrace. Their passion intensifies to the point where their feet can no longer support them. Chakotay guides Seven across the room, then lowers her gently onto the bed.
CHAKOTAY
(hesitating)
Do you want me to continue?
SEVEN
(breathless)
I wish to explore these feelings. You may proceed.
CHAKOTAY
(smiling)
I'll take that as a yes.
