I don't own Star Trek: The Next Generation or anything that is associates with it. Wish I did, but don't.

Picard stood, turning his attention back to Q.

"Where did she go?" Q didn't answer. He stood and walked over to the captain.

"My dear Captain, does it really matter? Besides I have something better to show you, all of you."

Dr. Crusher stood as did Deanna. Q snapped his fingers and the other crew members appeared.

"Captain, what's going on?" Riker asked. Picard put his hand up to silence Number one.

"What do you mean, show us?"

Q smiled. "I think it is time we give Data his memory back."

Q snapped his fingers again and the room changed. Suddenly another Data came over the ridge. He was smiling.

"Q, what is the meaning of this?"

Q turned to Picard and raised his hand. "Welcome to the past Captain. Do not worry for we are only here for a short time. You see this is the part of the story in which my lovely daughter forgot to mention. The truth about why Data is emotionless."

The past Data rushed past the group, like he was in a hurry to get somewhere. He jumped on the nearest tree and climbed up, hidden within the leaves.

The present Data just watched on with curiousity.

"Ready or not, here I come," came a female voice from over the ridge. Suddenly a younger Roxanne came over the ridge, smiling. She looked different than she did in the ballroom. Her hair was shorter and she was in a skirt and a blouse. She was bare-foot.

"Come out, come out where ever you are," Roxanne said.

Suddenly the past Data leapt out of the tree, landed behind Roxanne, and grabbed her around her waist.

"Gotcha," he said lifting her in the air and spinning around. Roxanne was laughing.

"Data, put me down," she said giggling.

Past Data set her down and turned her around. Then he gave her a passionate kiss which she returned.

Present Data turned to Picard, obviously confused.

"Captain, I have no recollection of these events." Past Data and Roxanne disappeared into blackness as they moved to another memory.

"Don't worry dear android, all will be revealed in due time," Q said.

This time they were standing in Dr. Soong's lab. Roxanne was there, working on something, when a younger Dr. Soong walked in.

"I can't believe it," he said. Roxanne sighed. "I don't understand it either, but it happened."

"I need to take a sample of your blood to figure out how this happened," Soong said moving closer to Roxanne. She jumped away.

"Get away from me!" she yelled. Soong continued to move closer to her.

"I need to know how you became pregnant with an android's child," Soong said. At these words everyone who didn't know the truth gasped. Riker turned to Q.

"What the hell are you going on about Q? This is impossible."

Q said nothing. He pointed to something behind Riker, causing Riker's eyes to move back to the scene in front of him.

"It isn't any big deal, Roxanne. Thank you for your generous donation of blood," Soong said sitting at a computer. Roxanne was on the floor holding her right hand close to her body. Blood was soaking from her hand onto her clothes.

"Damn you Doctor," Roxanne said rushing out of the room. Once she left, Soong's computer started to beep. Soong walked over and read the results, instantly paling.

"She has powers. She must be studied."

As Soong began rushing out of the room, it darkened again. When they entered another memory, they were back in the lab, but it was dark.

Roxanne entered carrying a small bag. She set it down near the door and walked in. Data and Lore were "sleeping" in some chambers. Roxanne walked up to Data and placed her hand on the glass.

"Good-bye," Roxanne said. She placed a kiss on the glass and turned and left. The memory changed fast. It was Data again, this time on his knees.

"Please, remove them. I can no longer deal with the pain. Remove them," Data was begging.

Soong looked at Data and nodded.

Then they ended up back in the same room they were before. Their journey into the past was over.

"I do not understand," Data said confused. Everyone turned and looked at him.

"I am a father?"

"Yes, Data. You're a father. Base's father." Everyone turned to see Roxanne standing by the door with tears in her eyes.
