Voyager.
It was the last day of reviews and Chokotay was just giving the b'joran Mickaff the final once over. "You're doing a great job, keep up the good work." The young man beamed as he left the room. Chakotay signalled for the next one to enter. The doors swished open and Chakotay felt a shiver go up his spine.
"Hello, ensign Greenman. How are you doing today?" the commander asked suddenly feeling uneasy.
"I am well, and yourself?" the ensign asked.
"I'm a little tired. So how are you enjoying hydroponics?"
"I enjoy it very much." Legolas was trying to make himself seem as unremarkable as possible. He could feel Chakotay's unease clear across the room. Legolas wondered if he felt that he was an elf.
"I've been looking over some of the reports. It seems that the plants have had a 10 per cent growth rate increase since you started down there. Good work."
"Thank you sir."
"So..." Chakotay began only to be interrupted by his comm. Badge hailing him to the bridge. "Excuse me," he said "we'll have to continue this at another time." The commander said stiffly, eager to get out of the room. Luke Greenman nodded and left after him.
The Captain only wanted him to check out something in engineering, and on the way down he ran into Tom Paris, off to see his wife, the Klingon B'leanna Torres.
"Hey commander, how are those reviews comin' along?" Tom asked cheerily.
"Good, I was just finishing up with ensign Greenman."
"Oh, they guy with the long blonde hair. He's kinda weird isn't he?"
"I wouldn't say weird, but definitely unusual. Have you worked with him before?"
"Only once, he hardly said a word. Although he did sing a bit."
"Sing?"
"Yeah in some weird language. And he has the most unnerving stare! I felt like I was under a 1000 watt light bulb when he looked at me."
"Really?"
"Yeah."
Chakotay thought on that while they headed down the corridor to main engineering.
Middle earth.
The sword never had a chance to meet her neck. Aragorn threw a dagger at the beast before it got a chance to finish off his wife. However, while his attention was divided the remaining orc managed to cut Aragorn's arm. Arwen was up in a flash and the two quickly finished off the orc. They sat for a moment gasping at each other, then Aragorn took his wife's hand and the left the bloodied clearing.
They never looked back to see the swirling magic or the boiling blood...

Luke Greenman hesitantly stepped onto the bridge. He had never had cause to come up here before, and really had no interest in being on the brain of the ship. A female officer looked at him and blushed. Legolas sighed in resigned annoyance, and headed for the ready room.
The door chiming caused captain Katherine Janeway to look up from her coffee as she said 'enter', her eyes focused on ensign Luke Greenman and he stepped soundlessly into the room. She took this as shyness, and quickly offered the young looking ensign coffee.
"No thank you." He said, and glued his eyes to the floor.
"Please have a seat." He sat in the chair farthest away from her. "How are you today Luke? May I call you Luke?"
"Yes ma'am, I'm fine thank you, and yourself?" He asked, still not meeting her gaze.
The captain answered she was fine and considered her crewman. he's got an interesting accent "Where are you from Luke?"
"Oh, I've moved around a lot."
"Well, where were you born?" she asked trying to figure out this quiet creature before her.
"In a forest."
"Really! How interesting. I grew up in America mostly. I miss it. Do you miss your home too?"
"I miss the sky, and the trees."
"Why did you join Starfleet ensign?" He didn't looked the type to want to leave his home.
Legolas looked up at the captain, lost in thought for a moment. "Because I wanted to be amongst the stars."
The gaze of the man in front of her hit the captain like a ton of bricks. His eyes were a swirl of grey and blue, and they seemed to hold great secrets that no human ever had the right to know. She became aware of his longer than regulation hair, and his long slender hands. She noticed how he sat perfectly still as if frozen in time. Then her eyes fell to his face, and the fairest skin she had ever seen in a human. "I...uh...m-me too."
She stammered.
Legolas averted his eyes immediately and his cheeks coloured slightly at his lapse. The door chimed.
"Come in." Janeway said, still pulling her self together. Seven of nine and B'leanna Torres stormed in, deep in a heated argument. Katherine noted how Luke seemed to disappear becoming unnoticed in the fray. I wonder where he learned that trick. "Luke, I must come down and see your plants one day, thank you for time." He nodded and strode out.
"Who was that?" B'leanna asked.
"Ensign Luke Greenman." Seven answered straightening herself, she was a former borg drone and expected perfection from everyone. "If you were not so involved with yourself you would have bothered to learn the duty roster."
The captain interrupted B'leanna's retort. "Have you worked with him before Seven?"
"He has assisted me many times in the science lab."
"How is his work?"
"He reaches a level of perfection one does not expect to find in humans. Or Klingons." She stated smugly.
Janeway sighed. The mystery of Luke Greenman would have to wait, now she had to settle world war 4.
A/N : i added this scene in as an afterthought, hoping to get a romantic interest going, but i'm not sure if i wanna keep it so tell me what you think :
*added scene *
Seven of nine lingered in Janeways office after B'leanna had left.
"Captain." She queried "why was Luke Greenman in here?"
"I just wanted to get to know him better, that's all. Why?" Janeway rested her head in her hands, regarding seven.
"No reason- I-just..." she straightened her back and stiffened her neck. "I'm sorry captain it is none of my business."
Janeway smiled. "What do you think of him seven?"
She considered for a moment. "He is...difficult to look at."
Janeway frowned. "how so?"
"When I look at him I find myself unable to concentrate on my task, and I develop an odd feeling in my chest."
Now the captain was grinning from ear to ear. "Why seven! It sounds like you have a crush!"
Seven blushed.
So, i know this chapter wasn't too exciting the story picks up soon.
But i guess you'll just haveta wait till the next chapter to find out how.
