I'm going to end up making this a Voyager/Andromeda crossover, but it'll take awhile. Sorry to all the Harry fans out there, but he's going to be gone for a long time. I just don't like him.
Disclaimer: I don't own Voyager, Paramount does.
The Captain of the USS Voyager sat quietly in the mess hall staring at the
PADD she held in her hands.
"More coffee, Captain?" Neelix asked, causing her to jump up and drop her
PADD.
"What are you doing a 0400 hours in the morning?" Captain Janeway said impatiently to the Talaxian.
"140 omelettes don't cook themselves, Captain. What are you working on?" He
ask in his annoying voice.
"It's this trade agreement we're attempting to make, Neelix. This civilization
is incredibly advanced, and I'm starting to feel as though we have nothing to
give. I mean, look at this list. Replicators that require a quarter of the energy ours do, androids well beyond our capabilities at the moment, the list just goes on."
"If I may, Captain, they may value some of our cultural items instead of our technology. Some rather advanced civilizations can still learn from our history." Neelix said in an attempt to be helpful.
The Captain smiled and said," It's worth a try. But right now, I'm gonna go get some sleep." The Captain got up and left the mess hall, while Neelix busily began his omelettes.

"B'Elanna, WAIT!" Tom called, running out of the holodeck. B'Elanna continued walking, but at a slightly faster pace.
She turned around, screaming, "Just leave me alone, Tom!"
He stopped running and said quietly, "Fine, if that's what you want." Then he walked sadly to the turbolift.
B'Elanna turned around just to see him walking into the turbolift. She called after him, but he just ignored her. She stepped onto the empty turbolift, crying softly to herself.
************
"Your technology is extraordinary, Ambassador." Captain Janeway exclaimed, gazing at the beautiful flowers and animals on Quasha, the homeworld of the Queidians.
"Thank you, Captain. Now I must make a request of you."
"Certainly. After all of your hospitality I wouldn't dream of turning you
down."
Ambassador Quinn beamed at the compliment. Literally. He began glowing ever so slightly. "I was wondering if you and several of your crew would feast with us tonight. The Quatra have been very eager to meet you."
"I'm sorry, the Quatr-?" Captain Janeway said.
"The planet's elders," He said, apologizing.
"I would be glad to Ambass-," Janeway began, rather happy about the offer. She had stopped because Tuvok had suddenly come running up to her.
"Captain, Ensign Kim has vanished." He said in his most unemotional voice.
"Excuse me, he VANISHED?" she exclaimed questionably.
"Follow me, Captain," he said. They both ran to a spot about 5 minutes away, with the ambassador close behind them.
"He has entered an alternate universe." The ambassador said matter-of-factly.
"An alternate universe?" Commander Chakotay walked up with an expression of disbelief on his face.
"Commander, I'm in as much disbelief as you are, but for all we know it's true," she whispered to him. To the ambassador, she said," Is there a way to bring him back?"
"The only thing you can do is wait," he said, but seeing there dubious faces attempted to clarify, saying, "You might end up in the wrong universe."
"Would it be all right if I had my chief engineer examine the device?" Janewway said hopefully.
"Of course. We have no problem sharing our technology." he said.
"Oh, and Commander," the captain said to Chakotay as he was turning away,"we have a feast to attend tonight, even wiwth Harry's disappearence."
He looked very sad,but said, "Yes, captain." Then he walked off, leaving the captain alone with the ambassador.
"Our mistake has been the cause of you losiing one of your people, and yet you still decide to come to our feast?" He said curiosly. "Your people are fascinating."
"If what you said was true, there is nothing we can do. We might as well try to enjoy ourselves," she said. "But I do need to go to my ship to prepare."
"Of course, Captain. I will see you at 0700 hours."
************
Later that day, with all the away teams safely onboard, the captain went to see B'Elanna in her dress uniform (she was wearing it for the feast).
Janeway rang the doorbell to B'Elanna's quarters. She had no doubt that B'Elanna would be upset when she heard the news about Harry. The Captain had been considerably upset all afternoon, and Ensign Kim and her were not good friends at all. B'Elanna, on the other hand, always had like Harry.
"Come in!" B'Elanna called, wiping her eyes swiftly to hide her tears. The captain walked in and B'Elanna jumped up.
"Oh, I'm so sorry, I- I didn't know you were coming!" She said to Captain Janeway.
"It's quite all right, B'Elanna. I just wondered if you'd heard the news about Ensign Kim."
"Harry? What happened to him? Is he hurt?" B'Elanna said with a worried expression on her face.
"He's been sent to an alternate universe," the Captain said, wondering what effect these words would have.
"What the-?" B'Elanna's yelled.
"Try to understand, the Queidiens didn't expect him to wander near the machine, and there is a big chance we could get him back." The captain spoke in her most reassuring voice. "They've also given you permission to examine the device to see how it works. I want you to beam down as soon as possible to begin examining it."
"Yes, captain. I will as soon as I tell Tom." B'Elanna answered promptly. She realized that that machine was the one way to get Harry back, and she would work as hard as she could.
The captain got up and left, leaving B'Elanna to think about what she just said. She wasn't ready to talk to Tom, not after what she did to him. But it was too late now. She pressed her commbadge, saying, "B'Elanna to Tom Paris, meet me in the mess hall." Then she got up and left.
************
"Is there a reason why you wanted to meet me here?" Tom gave B'Elanna an icy stare.
"It's Harry. He- he-he's gone." B'Elanna whispered to Tom, about to burst into tears.
"What are you talking about, B'Elanna, he's down on the planet examining their technology."
"He got taken to an alternate universe by a machine they have on their planet." She said this very fast, and Tom wasn't sure how to act.
"But that's impossible- it can't happen- I don't believe you." And with that he stalked off, leaving B'Elanna to sit there all alone, staring at the pizza Tom had left there.
************
"Captain, your promptness astounds me," the ambassador said.
"Thank you, ambassador. I believe you've met Commander Chakotay and Lieutenant Tuvok, but not Ensign Ayala, our security officer."
"Do you really believe this is nessecery, captain?"
"It's nothing personal, just standard procedure," Captain Janeway explained.
"Ah, then you shouldn't mind if I scan you," the ambassador said, amused.
"Not at all," Janeway said nonchalantly. Suddenly three aliens appeared and began scanning them.
"Cloaking technology? That wasn't in your list of technology," she said jokingly.
"I'm sorry, but that is one of our most valued possesions. We cannot give it up."
"I was only joking. But seriously, what have you fixed for us?"
"I was hoping you would ask that. We are serving several different traditional earth dishes. We have cheese quesadillas, cheese enchiladas, spanish rice, cheese ravioli, spaghetti, pizza, French bread, sourdough, and croissants. Also, for dessert we are serving chocolate mousse, crème brulee, cheesecake, fried ice cream, chocolate cake, key lime pie, apple pie, blueberry pie, pudding, and several different flavors of jello."
"That all sounds delicious," the captain said quite honestly. "Shall we go?"
"Of course, captain," the ambassador said.
"Oh, and would it be alright if my chief engineer, B'Elanna Torres, beams down to examine the device," she asked hopefully.
"Oh course. And if she wants she would be welcome to come to the feast."
"Thank you very much for your generosity. I'll have her beam down instantly. Janeway to Torres. Beam down to the site immediately."
"Aye Captain," B'Elanna said instantly as she sprinted to the transporter.
************
"This is amazing," B'Elanna muttered to herself. "B'Elanna to Captain Janeway. I'm gonna need a couple months at least to fully figure this out."
"We don't have months, B'Elanna. Do the best you can," the Captain responded.
"Alright, Captain. Requesting permission to beam back to the ship. I think there's a way to modify the deflector array, allowing us to switch universes," B'Elanna responded eagerly.
"Permission granted. I believe it would be alright if you joined us for dessert, if you want to," the captain said, glancing quickly at the ambassador for confirmation.
"No thanks, Captain. I just want to get Harry back."
