6 weeks later…

In the mess hall Neelix presented his new soul food dish to the crew.

Tom looked at his plate, "What is this?"

"Hey this actually looks like human food," Harry said as he sat down with Tom, B'Elanna, and Jaedyn.

Neelix looked very excited as he waited for them to try his new creation,

"Well go on eat it…"

They all tried it. Jaedyn was the first to speak,

"Yo my man Neelix this shi….uh…food is off the hook!"

"Off the hook…what do you mean?"

Jaedyn rolled his eyes,

"Man, ya'll need to get out more.  Off the hook means it tastes really good!"

"Yeah this is not bad, what is it," Harry asked as he stuffed more into his mouth.

"Ensign McNeill calls it Soul Food."

"Well it looks like fried chicken, cooked green leaves and I don't know what this is," B'Elanna said as she pointed to the rice with brown stuff stirred into it.

"It's Cajun fried chicken, collard greens and that is dirty rice," Jaedyn answered.

Tom looked at him timidly,

"Dirty rice…is there dirt in this Neelix?"

"No Lieutenant, actually it is a combination of beef and liver."

"Liver…yuck I hate liver."

"Why? It's good for you, lots of protein," B'Elanna teased.

"Yo Sir, don't dis the liver.  It was almost as good as my Mom's Neelix." 

Jaedyn finished his food and stared down at the table.

"What's wrong Ensign," B'Elanna asked.

"Nothing, I mean I just wish I could go home sometimes."

B'Elanna put her hand on his shoulder,

"Everything will work out Jaedyn."

"Don't get me wrong, I am so glad I learned all this hot new stuff about space and junk but I just wish my Mom was here or that I could go back in time and stop my planet from being destroyed."    

"Your mother would be very proud of you Jaedyn."

"Especially if she saw the way you can fly.  Wow, you are almost as good as me."

Jaedyn perked up, "What do you mean almost… Sir, I could fly circles around you in the Delta Flyer."

Tom smirked, "Slow down junior no one could ever fly circles around Captain Proton."

They were all laughing when the ship suddenly jerked.  Everyone and everything went crashing to the mess hall floor.

Captain Janeway's voice came through everyone's communicator.

"Red Alert! Get to your stations, we are being attacked!"

Everyone left the mess hall to carry out their orders.

On the bridge…

Harry, Jaedyn, and Tom walked in as the Kazons appeared in the view screen.

"Damn and I thought my hair was nappy, ya'll got all kinds of ugly aliens up in the Delta quadrant."

Chakotay impatiently starred at Jaedyn,

"We don't have time for comments Ensign. Get to your station now!"

"Yes sir."

The ugly red Kazon on the view screen opened his big mouth,

"Starship Voyager, you betrayed our people, now you will pay!"

Captain Janeway rolled her eyes,

"How many times do we have to go through this? Your technology is no match for ours.  If you persist the only ones who will pay are you and your crew."

"Hahahaha!  I don't think so Captain."

"They have locked phasers on us Captain," Tuvok said calmly.

"Raise shields!"

"Yes Captain."

The Kazons fire and voyager shakes with the impact.

Harry starred at the computer,

"Captain…shields are down to 50 percent!"

"Tuvok, fire weapons."

"Yes Captain."

"There was no impact on the Kazon vessel Captain."

"What!"

"They are firing a wave of five torpedoes."

"Stop them Tuvok!"

Tuvok counters four of the torpedoes, but the last one hits Voyager.  Everyone on the bridge flies forward.  Captain Janeway stands up with her hair a mess and a cut bleeding on her forehead.  The bridge is a disaster, but the crew manages to stand and return to their stations.

"Is everyone all right?"

"Yes Captain," they all answer.

"Good. Tom, get us the hell out of here."

"Captain, we ain't going no where fast the warp core is off line."

"He's right Captain, we can only get out of here on impulse."

"Do it."

"The Kazons are following us," Tuvok warns.

"Captain, I think we should just go over there and beat the hell out of them."

"That is illogical Ensign."

"Well too bad Tuvok.  It ain't very logical to keep running away cause they is going to catch up to us and kill us.  We have to fight."

"Wait Captain…I think I have found a way to disrupt their shields."

"Do it.  Tom, turn the ship around.  Tuvok, load weapons and be ready to fire as soon as Harry disrupts their shields."

"Yes Captain," Tuvok fires, "Their shields are down Captain."

"Disable their weapons."

"The Kazon vessel is disabled."

"Good, now let's get out of here."

"Aye Captain."

"Damage report Harry."

"Hull breech on deck 13, we have no shields, transporters are down, warp power is offline, and there are two casualties in Engineering."

"Lieutenant Torres come in."

"Yes Captain."

"Are you all right?"

"Yes, but two of my ensigns are dead."

"Get them to sickbay.  How long until we have warp power and transporters?"

"It's going to be a few hours Captain."

"All right.  Janeway out."

"How the hell did that happen," Chakotay asked in disbelief.

"I don't know, but I am going to find out," Captain Janeway answered back angrily.   

"Yeah, I thought ya'll said that even the Borg won't assimilate the Kazons because they are too stupid."

Seven walked onto the bridge just in time to hear Jaedyn's sentence.

"The Kazons are irrelevant."

"Kathryn your head is bleeding, you should go to sickbay."

"Not until I find out how the Kazons developed that kind of technology overnight."

Everyone was starring at the Captain except for Jaedyn, who was looking at the view screen,

"Oh shit…"

"Ensign please contain your derogatory phrases," Tuvok scolded.

"Ya'll better turn the hell around and look at the view screen."

The Kazon vessel was dead ahead of Voyager, and right behind it was a Borg cube.

"Borg technology…" Captain Janeway mumbled as she and the crew sat there powerless to stop the course of events that could change their lives forever.
