I'm alone again. Mama and Papa have beamed back to the Borg ship. I'm
always so scared when they do that, I want to hide in my bed and cry
and hope they come back. But I have to be strong for Rosie.
Rosie is my doll. She used to be Mama's and she's very beautiful, but
she's afraid of the Borg, same as me. So when Mama and Papa are gone
I sing to her and keep her from worrying.
And when Mama and Papa come back we pretend we weren't scared. Papa
doesn't like it when we're scared. But I get so scared.
Mama says the Borg won't hurt them, because they wear special shields.
But the Borg are smart and they can adapt. That's what they do. They
adapt and then they 'similate.
I don't want to be a Borg! I don't want to be 'similated. I have nightmares,
I can see them coming for me and I run and run and run and then they catch
me... And then I wake up and hug Rosie so hard 'coz she's scared and I'm
scared and sometimes Mama hears me and comes and tells me it was only a dream.
But it's not only a dream. I don't dream like that normally. I know
they're going to get me, they're going to kill Mama and Papa and 'similate
me and Rosie's going to be all alone and I won't be able to sing to her
to stop her being scared.
I don't want to be a Borg.
Papa says I shouldn't be scared. He says the Borg are just funny people
like Klingons and Cardass'ans. But I dream and he dies and I know they
aren't people. I dream and they catch me and I know they're evil.
Mama's told me stories from Earth and I think the Borg are vampires.
They suck out your blood and that's why your skin goes white. I like
my blood where it is. Rosie is scared of vampires.
But I can't tell Mama that's what they are, 'coz she won't like it. She'll
tell me not to be silly.
I'm not being silly. They're vampires and they're evil. And Rosie's scared.
And I don't want to be 'similated.
