~*~Disclaimer=me no own~*~ I know I've taken ages in updating and it'll
probably take ages before the next chapter goes up but bear with me! Thanks
to all my reviewers you're really giving me loads of ideas without even
saying anything!~*~
Malcolm stood at the doors of sickbay not moving, simply staring at the doors. Finally he turned heel and marched back into the turbo-lift.
'Hey there lil bro.'
Instantly Malcolm shrank back against the turbo-lift door. Matthew grinned.
'You're not scared of me are you?'
Malcolm didn't say a word but his gaze travelled towards the turbo-lift doors. Matthew noticed and calmly reached out and hit the emergency stop button.
'Now where were we?'
"Why are you doing this?" Malcolm asked a note of fear in his voice.
Matthew grabbed Malcolm's throat.
Malcolm spluttered his hands flailing through the air where Matthew was.
'You can't touch me.'
Black spots began dancing in front of Malcolm's eyes from the lack of oxygen.
"It's all your fault you know.'
Malcolm's eyes closed and Matthew let go watching as his brother slipped to the floor.
'Pleasant dreams.'
He started up the turbo-lift again and disappeared.

"The anomaly is growing," said T'Pol closely examining the data at her station.
"Do you know why?" Archer asked.
"No."
"It's pretty though," Hoshi commented, gazing at the fiery reds and purples of the anomaly outside.
Archer smiled. Then he remembered Malcolm and decided to check whether Malcolm really had gone to see Phlox.
"Archer to Sickbay."
"Phlox here."
"Doctor, did Lieutenant Reed drop by sickbay today?"
"He was brought in about five minutes ago."
"Brought in?"
"Two crewmembers found him unconscious in the turbo-lift."
"Is he alright?"
"Stable. However at the moment it looks like he was attacked."
"On my way. Archer out."
"T'Pol you have the Bridge," he ordered stepping into the turbo-lift.
'Hello Captain.'
Archer jumped and stared open mouthed at the man stood opposite.
"Malcolm?" he asked frowning.
'Close, but no cigar. Although I suppose there is a family resemblance between us.'
"Malcolm's brother?" Archer guessed. "What're you doing on my ship?"
'Just paying little Mally a visit-by the way how is he?'
"You attacked him?" asked Archer his mind reeling.
'Attacked is such an ugly word, it's an old game we used to play Captain. No harm in that.'
Matthew disappeared leaving Archer stood open-mouthed.
The turbo-lift doors opened.
"Are you alright Captain?" a crewman asked.
Archer blinked and promptly closed his mouth.
"I'm fine thank you," he replied, getting out and walking quickly towards sickbay.
Doctor Phlox looked up from Malcolm's beside.
"Captain," he acknowledged.
"How is he?" Archer asked.
"He'll be fine," Phlox assured him. "Other than a sore neck he should be fine, physically there's been no lasting damage."
Archer nodded, his mind still going over the events in the turbo-lift.
"Are you feeling alright Captain?" Phlox asked concerned.
Archer nodded again.
"Can you wake him?" he asked
Phlox nodded and reached for the hypospray.
