Lenorathetrekkie: Yes, I believe that Guinan is immortal. And I am sorry about not updating before I left for vacation. Oops on me.
Demitri...
Demitri...
"Demitri!"
"AH!" Demitri yelled. He opened his eyes, only to shut them again for the light in the room was too bright. He tried to lift his hands to shield his eyes, but he couldn't move them. Struggling, he kept pushing against the force field that held him back. Wham, wham, over and over Demitri hit his invisible bonds, but all of his efforts were in vain: he was stuck.
Slowly, Demitri opened his eyes again.
"Hey there sleepy head," a soft, warm voice greeted him. As his eyes focused, he saw the face of Anja staring back at him. The scar on her cheek glinted in the light, and her big emerald eyes conveyed the happiness that she felt for Demitri still being alive.
"Hey," Demitri said in a weak voice. "Uh, why can't I move?"
"Force field."
He grunted. "That figures. That gay captain thinks I'm going to try and take over his little ship."
"Well, this little ship just saved your life," a new voice chimed in.
Demitri turned his head to see where the voice came from and found our favorite captain and crew glaring at him. Riker, Geordi, and Worf looked like they wanted to tear his head off. Crusher and Deana looked annoyed, Data had his eyebrows raised in surprise, and Picard had a very small frown on his face.
A huge smirk appeared on Demitri's face.
"Demitri, you asshole!" Anja chastised. "These good people just saved your life and all you do in thanks is insult them!?"
"Yep."
A very loud and annoyed groan escaped Anja's lips. "The least you could do is tell them what happened on Romulus."
Slightly offended, Demitri said, "Why should I tell them? Can't you do it for me?"
"It's your story. You tell them."
Demitri looked over again at the officers of the starship Enterprise. Returning his gaze back to Anja, he said, "Give me one good reason as to why I should tell them?"
Picard, getting very annoyed at the restrained immortal, said, "Because, if you don't, I will have you arrested and will turn you over to the Romulans."
Although not frightened by the captain's threat, the thought of going back to Romulus sent shivers up Demitri's back.
"Fine Captain. What do you want to know?"
"What were you doing on Romulus?"
Demitri opened his mouth to reply, but quickly shut it again. Taking a deep breath, he said, "You let me out of here, and I'll tell you everything."
Picard looked over at his officers. They pulled out their phasers.
Walking over to a control panel, he deactivated the force field.
Demitri slowly sat up and stretched. He then began to crack various parts of his body, very loudly. CRACK! Neck, spine, fingers, arms, legs. After he was done, he hopped off of the table.
Picard, fed up with the wasted time, crossed his arms in annoyance.
Demitri looked over at him. "Oh yeah. Romulus. Right." Clearing his throat, he began his tale:
"After wandering around the Galaxy for a few years, I suddenly felt the presence of a few of the shards of The Orb." He paused. "You do know what The Orb is, right?"
The officers nodded their heads.
"Allrighty. Anyway, I soon found out that the shards were on Romulus. Now, my first idea was to go in there, kill everyone, and take the shards. Make lots of big explosions. Then I thought, that's way too easy. So, I came up with a new plan: I'd infiltrate the base holding my shards, steal them, and then blow up the place. So I landed on Romulus, stole some moron's clothes, and eventually made my way to the base."
He took another breath. "Now, here's where it gets interesting. Once I got inside, I over heard some commander talking about this machine that can find the rest of the shards. Natal, I think that was his name. Anyway, he was boasting to his superior about the shards and their 'special' power. You have no idea how annoying that got. So, I waited until they left, snuck into their office, and grabbed all of the files concerning the machine. I then made my way to the machine (which, by the way, wasn't a very easy thing to do), and blew it up."
He took another pause. "Are you getting all of this?"
Again the officers nodded their heads.
"Good. Now, the Romulans weren't very happy that I blew up their little toy, understandably so. So, they somehow tracked me down as I was leaving orbit, and they destroyed my ship. I survived-"
"-Thanks to me," Anja said. "You called me earlier and said to pick you up at the edge of the neutral zone."
"Yep. And that's the end of my story."
"Sir, we have found the location of your shards," a nervous Romulan officer reported.
"Good," the deep voice of Natal answered. "Where are they?"
The officer gulped. "They, um, they're aboard the Enterprise, sir."
Natal closed his eyes in thought. "...keep the ship cloaked and follow the Enterprise."
"Yes sir." Turning around, the officer stiffly walked out.
"...well, my friend, it seems that the game is up."
AN: Well, what did you think. Please review.
