(PART 2)

"I am the captain of the Federation Starship Voyager. This ship was my home for seven years, I am not going to let anyone else command her." The tone in her voice would strike fear into the hearts of anyone, they would get the message; and if they didn't, they would soon know how she worked.

She gazed around the room, looking at her crew noting the way they were sitting, looking, listening.

She stared deep into the eyes in front of her that were watching her intensely. They were faintly familiar, but she couldn't for the life of her remember where she had seen before.

Each crew member took turns to speak. Sharing past memories of their time on Voyager, speaking of what they should expect. The captain listened intently; laughing at the memories she had forgotten, no, memories she had lost and wished she hadn't. As Tom Paris rose to speak, her eyes wandered the room in front of her. They paid close attention to their details; their eyes, their nose, their hair. This was it, this was her last mission. To teach these Starfleet candidates how to 'work' a ship. Her most challenging – and probably most fearful, yet.

She suddenly found her eyes drifting to the tall dark figure. She was just, staring. As he locked eyes with hers, she lost all sense of reality. Chakotay looked away and she came back down to earth as she realised her pupils were waiting for her to get up and tell them what would happen next.

She cleared her throat, "Right, now if you go to your quarters, we will begin the 'tours' at 0900 hours." She stepped down from the podeum and fell into step with her first officer.

"You were wonderful captain."

"Was I? I don't know if I spoke to them correctly. Whether I gave them enough information. Chakotay," there as a pause, "Am I doing the right thing?"

He looked down at her and she could feel the immense power of his gaze. "Yes, you did the right thing Captain."

Before they knew it, they were standing in her ready room. She sat down behind her desk, listening to Chakotay but not really taking the information in. She looked into the computer and saw herself and those familiar eyes. Her mind drifted to the briefing hall with all her pupils, with the girl with those eyes.

Then it suddenly clicked, the girl reminded the Captain of herself. It sent a shiver down her spine. The very thought of someone who was remotely like her sent fear through her heart.

"Captain? Captain?" She looked up.

"Oh, sorry Commander, I drifted off for some reason."

Chakotay looked at her with a worried look on his face, "We better go Captain, we're heading off in a minute."

She nodded and they both walked onto the bridge and took their positions.

"Right crew, this is it. Our last mission…"
