Thanks to everyone for your reviews, they have inspired me. I apologise in advance if I take a while to update anything, my block exams are this week. And I'm sorry this chapter is so long, I couldn't figure out when to end it.

Disclaimer: No matter how much we kick, scream, cry or throw temper tantrums, Voyager still belongs to Paramount, as do all the characters, except for the ones I invented, whom you will meet later. In other words, Paramount is too lazy to make a movie, so l think it is out duty as fans to play with them, manipulate them and speculate what should happen after Endgame.

Have fun, remember, reviews make me write faster, if I don't have any exams. Please include any spelling mistakes in those reviews, since my laptop still hates me.

The Offical Mission Chapter 3 - Discussions

The skeleton crew of the USS Voyager-A exited thier new ship throught the airlock and walked back onto the Utopia Planetia docking port in depressed moods. The crew who were supposed to be reporting to duty the next morning had already been contacted and told oftheir new situation. Needless to say their responses were about the same of those of the senior officers - everyone had been keen to return to space again as a family.

"OK, everyone!" thought she was 4 months pregnant, Kathryn Janeway could still throw her voice over a crowd and be clearly heard. The people in front of her immediately fell silent in respect of the woman they had been commanded by for just over 7 years.

"Everyone, the 7 year journey home made us a family. Now that we have spent almost a year back on Earth, I know everyone is eager to return to the depths of space once again. Our family seems only to be truly at home on Voyager, and now she has been taken away from us for another month. As you all know, SCE has created a transwarp drive specifically for the use on our new ship. The installation of this prototype will keep us planetside for another month, so I hope to see everyone back up here to report for duty at 0800 hours on June 9, Earth time. Good luck, wish your families well for me." After her speech, Kathryn Janeway turned on her heel and walked, Chakotay by her side, towards the private transport vessel waiting for them, leaving their depressed crew behind.

"Very nice speech, Kath," Chakotay said to his wife, calling her by her shortened name only in private. "Do you think Tom and B'Elanna will stay, head planetside or split up?"

Kathryn looked at her husband, the love of her life, and told him her thoughts. "Chakotay, I honestly think Tom and B'Elanna will both stay here, and I won't be surprised if Miral comes to expect a sibling in the next year, they have spent so much time apart, and will with the transwarp installation. B'Elanna would be happier with another child, I think. Plus, it would give our new nursery attendant something to do during the day."

"Yes, it would get a little bit boring with only Miral and Mattie in there, don't you think?"

Their conversation was interrupted by the shuttlecraft's launch, and unnamed ensign sitting at the controls of the small vessel. Kathryn and Chakotay sat together in eachother's arms, his hands stroking her slightly swollen abdomen. Kathryn looked into her hubands eyes, intense love filling his senses. "I love you so much," Chakotay whispered to his wife. "More than you'll ever know."

Tom and B'Elanna were settled into their large family-sized officers quarters on Voyager, Miral asleep in her bedroom.

"You know, flyboy," B'Elanna stared into her husband's eyes. "I think it is time for Miral to have a sibling, don't you?"

"I like the way you think, Maquis," he said. "Should we start now?"

"Is that a trick question?" B'Elanna asked, leading Tom to their bedroom, then falling backwards onto their bed, her husband in her arms. "Computer, minimal lighting."

A complying beep and the lights in their quarters dimmed considerably, leaving husband and wife content in eachothers grip. Unbeknownst (I think that's the right word) to them, B'Elanna was already two months pregnant.

Harry Kim and Annika Hansen walked into the quarters they shared on Voyager, their new home, the beginnning of their life together. As they looked around, Annika saw a small regeneration unit in the corner, for emergencies. Since she had changed her name, had most of her visable implants removed and gained the ability to sleep, Annika admitted her love for Harry Kim.

"Honey, come over here and sit down on this lovely couch." Harry led his girlfriend over to the Starfleet-issue grey couch and sat down next to eachother. "I have something to ask you."

The ex-Borg sat down next to her human boyfriend, expecting a conversation and maybe a kiss.

"Annika, I have loved you ever since I first met you properly. I want to spend the rest of my life with you, I want you be do the honour of becoming my wife." There, he thought, it was out. He had asked her to marry him.

"Oh, Harry," she gushed, kissing him passionately. "Yes, yes I will be your wife. Yes I will marry you."

"Oh, I love you." He kissed her again, then they left to spend their month on the planet together.

Abigail Peters and Scott Marman walked througth the corridors of Utopia Planetia together, towards the transport which would take them back to Earth. As they reached the docking port of the class-4 transport vessel, their ship's Engineerin teams stepped through the port and headed towards Voyager to install the new transwarp system.

"Abby, Scott, you can board the transport with us if you like," came the voice of Stellar Cartographist Lieutenant Samantha Wildman and her husband Lieutenant Joe Carey. Naomi Wildman, Sam's half-Ktarian daughter, was sitting next to the couple.

The new counsellor and security chief each smiled at the offer made by the two officers, and sat down on the seats behind them. The five people spent the entire journey to Earth talking about the original Voyager, and everything that happened in the meeting that morning the new pair didn't understand. It was the biginning of a new friendship, between the Deptuy Chief Engineer, Deputy Chief of Stellar Cartography, Chief Counsellor and Chief Security Officer.

The two hour journey was well spent by Voyager's commanding officers. The slept in eachother's arms, only to wake when the shuttle landed at Starfleet Command in San Francisco. The pair walked into the building and made their way straight to Kathryn's office. The official Delta Quadrant ambassador for Starfleet deserved her own office, and a permanent apartment on the waterfront.

When the couple reached the office, they immediately fell asleep on the couch together once again, and didn't leave the office for the next ten days.

The installation of the transwarp drive took ten days as planned, with B'Elanna, Vorik and the Alpha Engineering team helping the SCE. By day, they would manouver around the existing warp core, integrating the new system with their old ones. By night, the crew would go back to their quarters with their families. B'Elanna, though totally occupied every minute of the day with either her husband and daughter or the intallation of the transwarp drive, started to miss being pregnant, miss the feeling of being relied on for the growth of an unborn child. Her attention, though supposed to be focused on the new faster-than-light system in front of her, was wandering back to her quarters where her family was, and where she and Tom were thinking of another child. Actually, come to think of it, they were more than thinking.

The sound of an alarm brought Lieutenant Commander B'Elanna Torres back to the Main Engineering section of Voyager. The transwarp drive had just been installed and not tested yet. What could possibly go wrong? "What the hell is going on!" she yelled, mainly directing her wrath at the SCE team who were responsible for 'messing up' her domain.

The lieutenant from SCE looked at the Chief Engineer's angry face, she was obviously looking for someone to blame for the cause of the problem. "I'm sorry, Commander," he started. "Ensign Collins just needs to realign the dilithium matrix and connect it to the transwarp system and Ensign Roberts is interconnecting the anti-matter chambers between the two drives. Someone must have been trying to break the security codes and access the main computer core or ships systems." He was not used to serving below a female officer, so Lieutenant Jacob Kensington was almost fearful of what Commander Torres would do to him.

"Well, Lieutenant Kensington, why don't you go and see what they have done to my ship!" B'Elanna's Klingon cranial ridges were starting to glow bright red, a sure sign of her agrivation. She truned on her heel and walked straight over to the console next to the warp core, then one of the main consoles lining the walls, checking each of them as she passed to weed out the problem.

She was interrupted by the computer alerting her of an incoming transmission. "Computer play message," she called into thin air.

Annika Hansen's attractive face appeared on a small screen above the console she was currently working at. Now void of all Borg implants, her face was more attractive than ever. "Annika," she said to her friend and crewmate. "What can I do for you?"

The ex-Borg looked into the eyes of the friend she needed. "B'Elanna, I was wondering... is there anything I can do on Voyager to help? I am feeling very incomfortable on Earth with nothing to do." Her eyes and voice had a pleading tone to them. "Please?"

B'Elanna thought for a moment. It was sort of boring up on Voyager with only Vorik to keep her company during the day. maybe a distraction, a fresh set of hands, would be helpful. "Sure, Annika. When can we expect you?" she asked.

"I can be there within the hour. Is that OK with you? I really need someone to talk to at the moment." Her tone was so hopeful, it was a relief to hear her agreement and consent.

"That's perfectly fine. Is Harry coming with you?" She saw her face fall almost instantly as she mentioned her boyfriend. "Sorry," she said, immediately sorry for bringing up the subject.

"No, he's staying planetside with his family. I'll see you in an hour, OK?" she ended the transmission before B'Elanna could reply. She couldn't help but wondering if the couple had had a fight.
