Revelation

Chapter Four

The bridge was silent. Kathryn stared at the view screen and her eyes became dark. She knew what would happen next. "We're receiving a transmission Captain." Tuvok said slowly.

"Open a channel." Kathryn said in her authority voice. The channel was open and then came the dreaded line, "We are the Borg you will be assimilated, resistance is futile."

"Red Alert! All hands to battle stations." Kathryn barked. There was a loud sound that rocked Voyager. Cassidy held onto the bar behind Kathryn. Cassidy watched in horror as the cube became bigger.

"Damage report." Kathryn yelled.

"We have a hull breech on deck 11 Captain." Kim yelled back.

"Target their weapons array." Kathryn ordered.

"No effect." Tuvok said.

As the orders were barked and yelled at different stations, and as the ship rocked with fire, Cassidy watched as everyone tried to fend off the cube. Then Cassidy wished to herself that she knew what to do to help. Then a thought came to her. She remembered when she started chanting, "Go away, go away, go away," that the ship disappeared. What if she can do that again? She tried silently but the cube was too massive for to even think and she was scared every time the ship rocked. Then she remembered that Kathryn wanted the weapons array to be destroyed. Cassidy then made her way down to the center of the bridge. Stood between Kathryn and Chakotay and started to stare at the screen. "What are you doing?" Kathryn asked her in disgust. But Cassidy just kept staring. She moved closer to Tom and touched the console, and something miraculous happened.

"Tuvok, what's going on?" Chakotay asked.

"She is routing power from tactical to the helm commander." Tuvok replied.

"And doing what?" Kathryn in turn asked.

"Firing phasers." Tuvok finished.

And with that the ship's phaser fired at the cube. And Cassidy continued to fire. Just then, they saw an explosion on the cube. "Report!" yelled Kathryn.

"The weapons array on the cube has been disabled Captain." Kim answered.

Cassidy turned to face her with a smile. "How did you..?" Kathryn began but Cassidy was the one who spoke, "I can explain later Captain. Mr. Tuvok, target the secondary shield grid. I have destabilized it."

"Captain?" Tuvok questioned.

"Do it!" Kathryn ordered.

He nodded and targeted the cube and another explosion happened. Cassidy's stare became more intense. Kathryn watched her as Cassidy continued to do what she was doing. Then Tuvok replied from his station, "Captain, shields on the Borg cube has been disabled."

"Fire photon torpedoes." Kathryn ordered.

The Borg cube exploded with ease and the crewmembers on the bridge sighed a simultaneous breath. Cassidy turned to face Kathryn and smiled, "I think I know why I made the first disappeared. I can think of what I want to happen and then it happens. I believe I have discovered my revelation."

"Revelation?" Chakotay asked.

"I am telepathic. I think and it happens." Cassidy replied with confidence.

"Well," said Kathryn, "I believe you're right."

"I think what Cassidy experienced Captain is the explanation of the magnetic field that is surrounding her brain." The Doctor informed the crew in the briefing room, "Somehow her mind has become hyper-active when she began to use her ability to create whatever scenario and then believe it will happen and it happens."

"So if she telepathic and can create such scenarios, she should have been able to predict the future." Kathryn continued with some speculation.

"Maybe so Captain, but I do not believe so."

"Oh?" Chakotay now came in.

"She is not telepathic. She has the ability of telekinesis."

Everyone now looked at each other and then at Cassidy. Cassidy sat there looking down at her hands, "Are you saying Doctor that Cassidy is able to move things with her mind?" Kathryn now asked.

"Yes Captain," the Doctor confirmed, "That is exactly what I am saying."

Back in her ready room, Kathryn sat on the couch with Chakotay talking about the recent events that happened in the last couple of hours. They were analyzing the Doctor's data on the scans taken of Cassidy's brain.

"What do make of this Chakotay?" Kathryn asked.

"It's amazing," he began, "I am not sure how to reply. She has a unique ability. But what will she do with now? Will Cassidy want to have such power?"

"The real question is, with her discovering this unique talent, will she be able to control it?"

Just then the chime beeped, "Come in," Kathryn said. In stepped Cassidy and seeing the two commanding officers close in conversation, "Oh I am sorry to disturb you."

"No need." Kathryn smiled, "What can I do for you?"

"I want to thank you for not judging me when the Doctor told you about my ability. I am not sure myself how I got this talent. I am scared Captain. I don't know what to do."

Kathryn made her way close to Cassidy. "I am sure that you will find a way to control it sweetie."

"Besides," Chakotay too made his way beside her, "We could use you for when the Borg attack again."

Cassidy laughed and took the hands of Kathryn and Chakotay, "Thank you so much, for being so understanding."

Just then, a sensation began in Cassidy. Her eyes became large and her grip on Kathryn and Chakotay's hand came tighter. The sensation then traveled to Kathryn and then to Chakotay. In a split second, Cassidy, Kathryn and Chakotay were locked and then they collapsed. Cassidy however, was beginning to experience something miraculous that she got up, looked around and found that she absorbed Kathryn and Chakotay into her with just her touch. Now she has three personality traits. She is Captain Kathryn Janeway, Commander Chakotay, and herself Cassidy.
