Walking down the corridors afterwards, Heather, James and Danielle started
to
get bored.
"This is the song-" Started Heather
"That never" continued Danielle
"Ends!" They harmonized.
"Oh no, everyone plug your ears!" warned James, and put his fingers in his ears. "It's highly contagious!"
"YES IT GOES ON AND ON MY FRIENDS!" The girls sang at the top of their lungs. "SOME PEOPLE STARTED SINGING IT NOT KNOWING WHAT IT WAS AND THEY'LL CONTINUE SINGING IT FOREVER JUST BECAUSE"
Geordi LaForge stuck his head out of the door of engineering "Would you please pipe down! We are trying to concentrate on fixing the containment field"
Danielle looked at James. "I thought these doors were supposed to be soundproof." She said.
"Only in the quarter areas, so that people can sleep when people are running to they're duty shifts."
"Oh."
"Containment field is down?" Asked James returning his attention to Geordi.
"It's weak, yes."
"Why wasn't I notified?" Asked Picard.
"You'd be surprised at the problems that go on down here. I just tell you the life threatening ones as to not waste your time." Stated Geordi matter-of-factly.
"Let's see here." Said James, as he waltzed into Main Engineering.
"WOO HOO! TOUR!" shouted Danielle and Heather, and ran into the room, knocking over an ensign.
"Sir, can't you keep these little hellions under control?" Asked Geordi.
"No." He replied gruffly just as Danielle replied-
"Who are you calling little? I'm at least 300 years older than you!"
"Oh, these are the Q prankettes?"
"I'm not an ette!" Said Heather.
"Dude." Said Danielle. "No wait, Dudette. No wait, you're not an ette so - dude?"
"My name is Heather, thank you very much. Hey, what does this do?" She said as she pressed something on the control panel. An alarm sounded.
"She just dropped the containment field past critical!" shouted Geordi. "We've got a containment leak! I can't stop it! Everyone out, prepare for saucer separation!"
Containment fluid began to leak out in its odious white gas and everyone but Danielle and Heather began to run away.
"Hmmm. That doesn't look like it's supposed to happen." Said Dani, and walked up to the warp core, pulling out the hubba-bubba she'd been chewing.
" I wonder." she said, looking at the gum in her hand. With that she placed it on the containment leak.
"Heather! Gotta bobby-pin?" shouted Dani over the noise.
"Yea, here!" Heather walked over to Dani, pulling a pin out of her hair.
Danielle stuffed the gum into the leak with the bobby pin, and suddenly all the alarms shut off.
Picard turned around while everyone halted. "Geordi, I thought you said there was no way to stop it!"
"I did." Replied Geordi bewildered.
"Okay people!" shouted Heather, getting up on the nearest control panel. "The situation is under control! Go back to doing - whatever it is you do for a living."
"Dieing?" asked James, and Danielle slapped him over the head.
"Uh, how do I get down from here?" asked Heather. "Umm, here."
With that she fell over, hitting many icons on the panel and making the computer activate another alarm.
"Now what did I do?"
Geordi read the panel. "Sir?"
"What now?" Asked Picard.
"She just transferred all command to the guest quarters. It's fixable; it'll just take some time."
"Riker to Picard."
"Go ahead number one."
"We just lost lights and gravity up here. Should I call a red alert?"
"No, just don't bump your head on anything, and be prepared to drop!" shouted James. Picard glared at the three.
"Have I lost total control of my ship now?" exclaimed Picard.
"Oui, mon belle!" Stated Danielle.
Picard looked sharply at Danielle. "Nell, vous êtes restreints aux quarts." he said falling back into his native tounge.
"Pourquoi?"
"Parce que vous sapez mon autorité"
"Comme?"
"C'est assez! Faites comme je dis ou je vous jetterai dans la prison."
"Mais oui, vous vieil homme maussade, chauve."
"MAINTENANT!"
With that Danielle stomped on his foot and stormed out of Main Engineering towards her quarters, hearing Picard cursing in French behind her.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Authors' Note.
The above conversation in French goes as follows;
"Yes, my beautiful!"
"Nell, you are restricted to the quarters."
"Why?"
"Because you undermine my authority"
"When?"
"That's enough! Do as I say or I will throw you in the brig."
"Of course, you grumpy, bald old man."
"NOW!"
Gotta love Epals! Thanks to our two reviewers, we love ya!
