"After missing for three months and presumed dead. On this third month
anniversary, Admiral Kathryn Elizabeth Janeway was found in critical
condition near a section of Lake Tahoe. Starfleet medical has not yet
disclosed her current condition. But sources say that she is expected not
to make it thorough the next 24 hours. As we receive more information we
will update on this story." B'Elanna's mouth hung open. Toddler Miral
walked over toward the screen.
She placed her hand on Kathryn's face.
"Aunt K, look mommy its Aunt K!" B'Lanna burst into tears. At the innocent child's act. Miral acted as if she had only gone away on a short vacation. B'Elanna covered her mouth as she sobbed
" Uh, Yeah sweetie yes its aunt Kathryn." B'Elanna picked up Miral and held her close. The only comfort she could get was from the child she held in her arms. She kissed the nape of the toddlers neck.
"Don't cry mommy, she's coming home, don't cry." In all the confusion B'Elanna laughed at the child.
"No more crying, mommy promises." The screen became distorted. Someone was trying to contact them. all of the sudden Tom's face appeared on the screen.
"B'Elanna have you heard?"
"Yes"
"Chakotay and I have already left the camping grounds, we're are on our way. I've contacted seven and Harry. They're on the way, the doctor already knows he's the one that told us. It will take us about an two hours to get there." B'Elanna watched as tears welled up in Tom's eyes.
"Three months B'Lanna …three months."
"I know Tom, I know." Tom took a deep breath.
"Um we better get going. Tell Miral I love her." Miral tugged on her mothers dress. She then whispered into her ear.
"Miral says that you don't have to cry anymore she's finally coming home."
As an act of love Tom pushed his hand up to the screen before he signed off.
B'Elanna grabbed Miral's hand and walked to her bedroom. With in minutes the two had packed their bags and were on their way to San Francisco.

"Hold on Kathryn hold on" Chakotay murmured to himself. "I can't lose you before I say good bye." Chakotay watched as Tom set the shuttle down on the landing pad.
"Landing complete" The computer chimed in. with in seconds Chakotay and Tom were running down the strip. The ran through the dim building. The finally found themselves at a room entitled Janeway They barged through the door. Only to be followed in by the others.
"Great timing" Tom said sarcastically.
The group stood behind the glass and watched as the doctor and others poked and prodded at the mangled body on the bio-bed. They were speaking in a language that only that only confused him. Chakotay could only catch every few words. "Hypo spray, med cart" other wise he was lost. Chakotay stood there for what felt like moments. But he had really stood there for hours. The others were sleeping in the waiting room. All of them except Chakotay.
"What's going on? Dammit what's going on doctor" Chakotay waited for minutes. But he wasn't answered. He finally got so frustrated that he punched the glass. He watched as his hand slid through the window. At first it was painful but after awhile he couldn't feel it. His surroundings blurred. He felt sick to his stomach. All the captain could do was slide against the cold glass into the corner in the room and fade away. That's all Chakotay really wanted to do. He only wanted to fade away.
She placed her hand on Kathryn's face.
