A/N: Yay! I finally finished writing chapter two! It might go faster now...I've been in a fanfiction mood, and that causes me to remember my stories and how I need to continue writing them :) Enjoy!

Disclaimer: I own nothing save the Prisoner (who might never get a name--she's Natiley if you keep reading) and the storyline.


Chapter Two – Escape!


Janeway had just finished making an entry in her log when the door to her Ready Room chimed.

"Come in."

Chakotay walked in, and Janeway smiled, stood up and kissed him.

"We need to reschedule the wedding." Chakotay said, still in their embrace.

"Yeah, we should fix this situation first, just so it doesn't flare up again during the ceremony." She said.

They stood like that for a couple of minutes more, just enjoying the sensation of being in the other's arms. Behind them something beeped, bringing them out of their world.

"We'd better be going out to the bridge." Janeway said regretfully.

Chakotay nodded, and together they went back out there.

They'd been there for less than a minute when a frantic voice came over the intercom.

"Help! Help!" The Doctor's voice came, almost covered in static. "—is attacking me!" more static "—come quick!" With that the line went dead.

Janeway, Chakotay, and Tuvok were in the turbo lift before the call ended, leaving the Bridge in Harry Kim's capable hands.


The intruder headed from the brig at top speed. That stupid hologram called for help before it disconnected itself, making her escape harder. She had hoped to get to an unguarded or at least lightly guarded shuttle bay before them discovering her, but alas she probably wouldn't be able to show off the fact that she was never caught by the same trick twice—she will be ready for that force field this time.

Once she was two decks away she slowed down to a brisk walk, looking for the supply closet that she knew was around. She spotted it. She went up to it and punched in the code to open it (having learned it from the ship's computer) and picked out a uniform, and a phaser (both being conveniently in that closet.) She dressed and went in search of a replicater to get a fake combage. She went down a couple of levels, and found a cargo bay with an unguarded replicater.

She was fixing her fake combadge on when someone came in. It was that same part-Borg that she had seen earlier. Too late she realized that this was the same cargo bay as before, and this must be where she met the part-Borg.


When they reached the brig they found the two security members unconscious the doctor offline, and the prisoner gone. In seconds the ship was on Red Alert again, with every security personnel patrolling the ship in pairs, with four people guarding each shuttle bay, and transporter room. The threesome remained in the brig, gathering information from the two security men and the doctor.

"—and when I was putting up my stuff she grabbed me, I crashed into the force field, and a second later she was out. She knocked out the others, then charged me, I ran to the other side of the consoul and called for help, when she charged me the second time, I deactivated myself."

Tuvok nodded, and alerted all security teams that the intruder was on the loose, but it wasn't one of his men that responded to securing the prisoner—it was Seven.


The prisoner woke up soon after being deposited in the brig yet again. Her eyes fluttered open and she saw the greatly increased security. She noticed that her cloths had been changed back to her civilian cloths. She also noted the Captain and the Security Chief there, the holographic doctor was no where to be seen.

"Why did you attack my men?" The captain asked calmly.

"I did no such thing." The prisoner responded.

"We have it on tape. Don't lie."

The prisoner's eyes quickly searched the room. Where was that camera? She couldn't see it, but that didn't mean it wasn't there.

She decided to tell part of the truth. "I want out. I never wanted to be on your ship. I just want to leave."

"Why don't you use your own ship? And why are you on Voyager in the first place." The captain pressed.

"My ship was destroyed. I need a new one."

"So you plan on stealing ours?"

"Borrowing. I was planning on returing it." A lie, but the captain didn't need to know that.

The captain pursed her lips, thinking. "You'll remain here until we figure out what to do with you." She and the security chief left, leaving the guards to guard the prisoner.
