Chapter One – The Visitor
All was calm and normal on Voyager. They had just finished investigating the ruins of a ship they had received a distress call from, and finding no survivors, they had continued on to the Alpha Quadrant.
They hadn't found any survivors, but that didn't mean there weren't any. The soul survivor of the ruined ship shimmered into being in cargo bay seven. She was tall, with black hair that hung down to her shoulders and ice blue eyes that peered out behind black bangs. She wore all black and had a small gun on her hip, another hidden in her right boot.
She stood there for a moment before reaching out with her mind and listening to the moods and feelings on the ship. Her arrival hadn't been picked up. Good.
She looked around the cargo bay and after checking to make sure nothing would be recording her movements headed to a control panel on the far side of the bay, to search the computer and find out all she could about the ship and her crew. She pulled up the correct file and read the ship's name and crew size along with some boring information on launch date and other equally boring things. She found some interesting looking files, and after hacking into them discovered the ship's schematics and also its current speed and heading. Warp 6, and heading away from the ruins of a ship that they'd just investigated. Also good, they would be light-years away before they discovered her—if they discovered her that is…before it was too late.
The cargo bay's doors opened with a small hiss. The intruder hit the clear button, dropping her current files, and hid behind some canisters, spying on the newcomer. She stood just as tall as the intruder, but had blond hair, blue eyes, and full lips and was wearing a purple jumpsuit, displaying her figure, and her skin glinted in the light. The intruder looked closer—she was part Borg!
The part-Borg, started tapping on the consol before her. She hadn't been doing that long when a voice came out of no where—startling the intruder until she remembered that there was an intercom system on this ship.
"Janeway to Seven of Nine."
The part-Borg tapped her insignia. "Seven here."
"Aren't you supposed to be in my quarters by now?"
The part-Borg looked down at her consol, brow furrowing slightly. "I had to check something before coming. Besides, the wedding doesn't start for another three hours, why do you need me this early; it cannot take that long to get ready."
The other person, Janeway, laughed. "It will take this long to get ready. Bring your dress and come here immediately. Janeway out."
The part-Borg went over to the wall and stood before a computer that had a large hole under it. She typed in some commands and a pale blue pile of fabric appeared, presumably the dress for the wedding. She took it and left the room, leaving the intruder alone.
The intruder breathed a sigh of relief. She could get back to investigating the computer system now.
Three hours later all was ready for the wedding. The wedding itself would happen on the holodeck, and Neelix had somehow convinced Janeway and Chakotay that they should have the reception in the mess hall.
Ensign Faith Gablocks entered the holodeck for the wedding. She instantly regretted wearing her long blue hair down, as it was sweltering in the holodeck. The captain and first officer had evidently decided on having their wedding in a tropical setting, instead of somewhere else. As the setting was unofficial the captain had declared that anyone that came didn't have to wear their formal uniforms, so she had fortunately decided on wearing the sleeveless blue dress that matched her hair, and accented the blue sheen of her skin.
She looked around and saw that most of the command crew was there, save Tuvok, rumor had it that he would be on the bridge until right before the wedding started, as this was during his usual shift.
She found her seat, next to her good friend Ann Horton and started chatting with her until the wedding was about to start. Faith kept an eye towards the stage, where Chakotay, Tom, and Harry were standing talking, looking for Tuvok, knowing that when he showed up it would be time to quiet down and pay attention to the wedding.
They never got to that point though. Three minutes after Faith had sat down the ship's Red Alert system was activated.
"Red Alert – All hands to battle stations, Security Team Seven to Shuttle Bay Two." Tuvok's voice came over the intercom.
Chakotay looked at Tom and Harry. He hit his communicator as he was heading to the exit. "Chakotay to Tuvok. What has happened?"
"Someone is attempting to steal a shuttle." Came the calm response. "I am heading to the shuttle bay to deal with this myself."
"I'll meet you there. Chakotay out." He turned to Tom and Harry. "You two head up to the bridge and be prepared for whatever comes."
"Yes, sir." They said in unison and disappeared out the door, heading the opposite direction from Chakotay.
Ann pulled Faith from her seat. "Looks like we get to go to work in these outfits." She said grinning. "We'd better not be late."
Faith nodded and they headed off.
Janeway was not happy. Not at all. Her wedding had been interrupted by someone who had hopped on her ship without their knowledge, who then tried to steal one of their shuttlecraft.
She insisted on changing out of her dress to something more practical to visit the prisoner. The wedding would have to wait until after she dealt with the would-be-thief.
She walked into the brig and found Tuvok, Chakotay, and a security team there. She ignored them all and went straight to the prisoner.
"Who are you and what are you doing on my ship?" She demanded, crossing her arms across her chest.
The prisoner just glared at Janeway.
Janeway glared back.
Janeway won.
"My ship was recently destroyed, so I was going to borrow one of yours until I could buy my own, then I would've returned it." She said simply, looking Janeway in the eye.
Janeway didn't believe her for an instant.
"Keep an eye on her, and if she tells us any more information, inform me at once, I'll be in my ready room." She said and left.
Chakotay turned to Tuvok. "I'll leave this in your hands." And he too left.
Tuvok started issuing orders regarding guard duty. When he was done the door opened and the Doctor walked in.
"I heard I was needed?" He inquired.
"Yes, you are to look over the prisoner." Tuvok said, gesturing towards said prisoner.
"Very well." The Doctor said, and walked through the force field and began his examination.
