I just realized two things: that I didn't *gasp* put a Word to the Wise at
the end of the last chapter and that my chapters are REALLY SHORT. Oh well.
I'll make this one really really long.
Like
This!
Lots
And
Lots
Of
Space!
It'll be really long! :P
Just a Random Though: The female of the species is deadlier than the male.

"Look at her!"
"I told you she'd integrate well!"
"I still liked her better with her hair red. . ."
"That's not the point!"
"Neuro-Scan, 37th Century advancement."
"What does she remember?"
"Everything pertaining to the mission except the writings, nothing about us or the other Dimensional Shifts."
"Damn! Someone get her memories back!"
"I'm trying. . ."
"I told you she had too much telepathic power!"
"Shut up, I've got it. But I'm not going to give it to her, it might kill her!"
"I told you, you idiot, she's im-"
"SILENCE!"
Delta blinked. The shapes had been talking. Four of them. Two high voices, one concerned and angry that barked out the orders, one that just kept on saying "I told you". She could remember everything they'd said, but it didn't really make sense. Then again. . . the thing about the memories, maybe they had locked her out. . . This train of thought fell away as she saw the owner of the fifth voice. He or She had sounded imposing, but the person was small, maybe 3 feet. There was a presence emanating from her/him, however; you could feel the control.
"Hello, Delta. How are you?"
Delta regained her composure after her shock at hearing this commanding person speak to her. "How the Hades do you know my name?!"
"Simple. We've met before."
"What are you talking about?
We brought you here. We have created what has happened and will happen to you. Don't you remember?"
"You have my memories, why don't you tell me?"
"Brilliant, as always." Sighed the "I told you so" being.
The petite figure gave the being what was unmistakably a glare. The orangeness of them was starting to sting Delta's eyes, but she stared at them resolutely.
The leader turned back to her. Motioning her (for it was now obviously female, no male has such a death glare) head towards the person Delta assumed was the angry ordering one, she wondered what was happening. Then it came.
Floods of it.
Trillions of gigaquads.
Files and files of it, libraries of it, computers and computers worth!
Information. Memories. Experiences. Oh, the experiences! And with them, a bliss.
Collapsing forward on her hands, she realized where she was. The substances in her head arranged themselves, falling into spots that had been left unoccupied. Shaking her head, she felt complete. She had been missing the links. Now she had found them.
Looking up, she now knew the being in front of her.
"Athena!"
Delta rushed into the woman's arms.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Commander, there's been a massive energy surge on deck thirteen."
Chakotay tried to keep his face calm. "Any casualties?"
"No. The energy surge was contained. Tuvok is trying to analyze the situation. He has security teams watching the doors."
"How big are we talking?"
"A sun going nova."
The commander's face twisted. "You can't contain something like that!"
"Yet the walls of our guest quarters managed to do just that."
Chakotay's twisted face turned pale. "Delta!" he breathed.
Janeway let the smallest ounce of emotion show. There was worry on her face, concern, and for a brief moment, loss and anger. Then the Captain mask went back on. Standing up, she walked towards the viewport. "We can't get through the interference to scan for lifesigns. Commander, this is serious. What if this was a threat to Voyager?"
"If it's a threat, she did a pretty poor job. Release enough energy to destroy a solar system, yet manage to not get it out of her quarters. . .?"
Janeway sighed. "Any other theories?"
Before the First Officer could reply, Tuvok's voice came over the Captain's badge.
"Captain, we are able to the open the doors. Should we proceed?"
"I'll be right down."
Glancing at Chakotay, they both headed for the turbolift.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The Doctor hummed. There was some sort of energy field being projected on deck 13. Energy at supernova levels. He was interested, but of course, no one would tell HIM what was going on. Suddenly the doors opened to admit Delta.
"Why hello. Are you in need of medical help?"
"No, more like a very good psychiatrist. I'm pretty sure I'm insane." Flashing the Doctor a grin that made him wonder if perhaps this wasn't that far from the truth, she continued. "Actually, I'm just come to tell you that there was an energy surge in my quarters. I'm now hanging suspended while I talk to hyper-intelligent pan-dimensional beings." The Doctor stared. "What I wanted to say was that when they beam me in here in, oh, say, 26 seconds, inject me with the medication in file Delta Theta 53. Behind my ear. Got it?"
The Doctor shook himself matrixly (the hologram's equivalent of mentally). "I don't understand!" He burst out perplexedly.
Delta smiled. "You don't have to, Doctor! There can be any number of explanations: hallucinations, telepathic communication from another race, repressed memory, momentary contact with a parallel reality... take your pick. The universe is a strange place." Delta began to laugh. She leaned over and collapsed to the floor.
Only she never hit it. She fell through an orange interdimensional portal that appeared between her and sick-bay's carpet.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Hugging Athena close, Delta wiped tears from her eyes. "I remember now! All the happiness. . . all the pain. . ."
"Do you remember the Problem?" Asked Athena softly.
"Yes." Suddenly Andromeda pulled away. Looking down, she sighed. Athena realized what Delta needed to do.
"Go tell the Doctor to inject you with the Omega molecule. Then I'll let you Relive."
Delta disappeared through a portal and appeared back in half a second. Looking up at Athena and the rest, she leaned back. Athena's voice, soft now, came to her.
"Let the memories wash over you. . ."
Apollo, the commanding concerned one, and Hermes, a high voice being, leaned in as they realized what Athena wanted. Aphrodite closed her eyes and sent out waves of peacefulness. Artemis the know-it-all smiled down at Delta and took her hand. "Listen. . . Remember. . . Relive. . ."
Delta sunk into the abyss of her mind.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Janeway nearly ran out of the turbolift on level 13, Chakotay hot on her heels. Stopping beside Tuvok in front of Delta's quarters, she asked in the Captain's voice, "What readings are we getting?"
"The energy field is contained. Opening the doors will almost certainly have no affect."
"Do it."
As Unnamed Crewman 115 and Unnamed Crewman 43 worked on opening the doors, Chakotay tried to calm himself. He had felt such an attachment to this girl, and now- well, no-one could survive an energy surge like THAT! Taking a breath, he peered forward as the doors began to open slowly.
What he saw amazed him.
There was the glowing orange-sliver form of Delta, hanging suspended in the middle of her quarters. Her head thrown back, light came from her fingers, toes, and lower neck/upper chest. She was what was projecting the energy field. As Tuvok stepped in the room, phaser raised, she slowly brought her head up to look at the three officers standing framed in the door-way.
"The memories. . ." she murmured, before the energy field collapsed and she fell to the floor.
Chakotay rushed forward, leaning over her collapsed form. Behind him, he heard the Doctor's voice over the Captain's commbadge.
"Captain, I just had a visito-"
"It'll have to wait, Doctor. Delta is injured, we're beaming her to you now." Tapping her badge, she signaled Chakotay to put his commbadge on Delta. "Transporter Room 1, lock onto Commander Chakotay's badge and beam him to sickbay."
Delta's figure disintegrated in front of them.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
|~|inside|~|Delta's|~|head|~|
She was floating in the blackness. They had explained a lot, and they had left her alone to think over her thoughts.
The Dimensional Order.
The 1 Dimension that was occupied by Athena and her friends. Then the 9 main dimensions and the Dimensional pyramid. How each decision created a new dimension, how personalities and timelines changed, how all the setting was still the same. How there were the Enchanted Dimensions, in their own little scattered bubble, where magic ran wild. The Evil Dimensions, where things went. . . wrong. The way the lower dimensions destroyed themselves, the way all dimensions replayed themselves, and how, except for the main dimensions, no dimension went exactly the same way more than once.
Then about her. Why she was chosen. She was brilliant, supposedly. She hadn't felt brilliant when they told her. She'd wanted to tell them that they'd gotten the wrong person. But they wouldn't accept it. Then they said it was because she knew so much about Star Trek. They explained the story theory, the sub-telepathic link, all that. Then they told her the Problem.
Main Dimensions 1,2, and 3 started and ended at about the same time. So did MD's 4, 5, and 6. Then 7, 8, and 9. So the people in 123, usually had about the same jobs, same with those in 456 and 789.
She was from Dimension 1.
(They wouldn't let her remember her life. Which was fine, especially when Delta thought of all she did remember.)
Dimension 4 was where Kenneth Biller, Brandon Braga, Gene Roddenberry, etc. etc. got the Star Trek story. Everything was good, it had all been replaying itself in the same way, over a time frame of 59 billion years. It had done this over 900,000,000,000,000,000 times. But this time, something went wrong.
A surge of something, some sort of interdimensional chronaton field, had come from Dimension 6. It had connected Dimension 6 with Dimension 4 and made Dimension 6 the same as Dimension 4 and consequently Dimension 5 because it was between them. They were reliving the same 10 years over and over and over again. (A/N: This is why Star Trek: Enterprise is slightly odd, because it is taken from Dimension 20 now, not Dimension 4 as it was last season.) As anyone could see, this was a Major Problem.
And Delta was sent to fix it.
Athena, Apollo, Artemis, and the others were only the Guardian Gatekeepers. They couldn't travel between dimensions. They could open portals, though. That was what they did for Delta. But really, they answered to somebody higher up. The human mind couldn't think on that scale, so Delta was content to know only the friends she had made.
The complexity was that Delta couldn't know what was going to go wrong. The GG's couldn't tell her. So she couldn't know what to fix. So her friends decided to send her to different places, so she understood the variety of Dimensions.
The she was sent on her merry way.
Mentally, Delta was screaming. She had been made to forget all her experiences, and getting the back. . . well, it was hard to deal with.
First, she'd gone to another Voyager where she was readily accepted. She was there for 2 years. Not much had happened there, but she'd learned that people were defiantly not what they were supposed to be. (A/N: Insert Chakotay's Lament here)
Then she'd disappeared to Enterprize. The ship. As in, the sea ship. To this day, she had no idea what that experience had to do with her job. But as Enterprize was captured by pirates, she spent a full 5 years among them. She'd been sad to leave them when the portal appeared.
Then came a variety of stops: a trip to Enterprise with Kirk when Bones was a kind, jolly man and Kirk had about as much charm as a bucket of salt; thank God she was only there for 6 months. Then a visit to dimension 5 with Jean-Luc Picard and the Enterprise crew of the 23rd Century. She was on that ship for 12 years. A stop at the 'original' enterprise with Archer addicted to Heroine, Trip being French and Malcolm a party animal. Then so many more stops on Voyager (Insert Janeway's Denial and Realization, Delta Kiwized, Once in a Lifetime and Brand New Voyager Whiskey here). And once, very oddly, living in 21st century Dimension 9047 among 14-year-old versions of the Voyager Senior Staff. (insert Sleepover in Dimension 9047 here)
Then visits to three Enchanted Dimensions and three Evil ones, alternating back and forth. It was here she saw that Lord of the Rings fell under both categories, and that Harry Potter could be very wacked.
A visit to Treasure Planet world.
More Dimensions, more people to know and love. 47 Dimensions in all; 360 years.
And she had never aged a day.
Now she was back to fix whatever was wrong here. . .
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The Doctor walked up to the replicator. It had been exactly 26 seconds since Delta had appeared and told him to inject her with the hypospray in file Delta Theta 53, and now she was beamed to sickbay. The Doctor felt the need to believe her, and so he immediately ordered the replicator to create file Delta Theta 53.
The hypospray materialized in front of him. The computer issued a warning; he ignored it. Injecting the hypo behind Delta's ear, he saw the girl's eyes moving rapidly. Only after her eyes began to open did he listen to the warning coming from the computer:
"Warning: Omega Molecule Replicated. Extreme Security Threat. Warning: Omega Molecule Replicated. Extreme Security Thre-"
The Doctor cut the metallic voice off. The ship was in red alert; the Captain had heard the warning. Stunned, he stared at the hypo.
He had just injected the most unstable molecule known into Delta's head.
She had to be dead. No one could survive that.
The doors to sickbay whooshed open, and the Doctor looked around. Tuvok stood with Janeway and Chakotay, phasers armed and ready.
"Doctor, did you replicate the Omega Molecule?"
"I didn't realize what it was! Delta told me to replicate file Delta Theta 53, and that's what it was! I didn't know until after I injected it!"
"You injected the Molecule into Delta, Doctor?"
"Yes he did. He was only following orders."
The Command team stared at the biobed where Delta now sat.
"How are you alive?" Exclaimed the Doctor in shock.
"Simple." Turning to meet Janeway's level gaze, DA answered,
"I remember."
