The Bonds Of Friends And Family
Disclaimers: The characters don't belong to me, the story belongs tome and every else belongs to the movie company and the creator.
Warnings: For this Chapter it's showing the added side effects of the mission Wesley and Robin took on as they, Kurland and their friend create a new team. As they're going over things, as the truths of the added side effects of the games start coming forward. They see that the further they dig into and the more sinister that the Ktarians plan becomes as they're discussing things.
The true findings of the side effects make themselves clear to the senior staff crew. As things shift course, as they all realize just what causes their added problems were, while the added side effects make themselves known now as his diagnostics reveal the added damage to his body. And they take charge while the group gets a chance to deepen the bonds now.
As Wesley gets a chance to be with some new friends and having everything he wants now as an adult. As the episodes from here stay the same, Unification gets jumped, as they're dealing with the aftermath of this episode. So it jumps the cliffhanger and goes right to the next episode of the season, before it hits the next few episodes in the season, as things start picking up now for them.
Chapter 16: Medical Results, Rivalries And Rumors
"Yes and that's what's been worrying me, ever since your last encounter with Q, I've been having a tough time concentrating lately. Because it feels like I'm ending up in the middle of every one of the last few missions you had. Leading up to that hostage situation last month." Wesley said and they crossed their arms at that. "Son, have you been having any problems sleeping, if you're this exhausted, before you came home."
"If you brought that up?" Will asked him gently and he nodded to him. "Yeah dad, and I'm not sure what's causing it lately, but they just keep getting worse. And as I said if they connected me to the captain, as with my being with you now. And you're you're all fine that's enough to help, but either way, I just want the dreams to stop. Just so I can get some sleep right now at the moment and with it as well have a chance to recover."
"But I lost two things since Nick dragged me into it, and it's rest and food at the moment." Wesley said and they nodded. "What's the dream about lately if you're looking like you're running on fumes, and you mentioned that thought. Let alone gave the pills to Eli?" O'Brian asked and he sighed, knowing they weren't going to take it well. "That I'm back on the bridge in the middle of a fight and the last few attacks and situations."
"To name a few and I'm starting with the first thing I saw after you married your wife at the time. But you're attempting to arrest Maxwell for genocide, Ardra, your encounter with the Paxxans, and then from there it started getting worse. But it's the diamond, Geordi getting turned into an assassin, Worf's situation with that Klingon group, and leading up to now and whatever missions between the hostage situation there was."
"And with whoever you've been doing battle with lately, but I've seeing everything since that's going on up here to you guys. And through the captain and I don't know how or what is causing it, and at the moment I just want it to end now. But it's like I'm in the middle of the action and seeing everything that happens to you guys, but I'm relieved you're fine." he said and they all nodded as Picard exchanged looks with Beverly at that.
"Whatever's going on has to be connected to that, but how could you be seeing what's going on up here to them. Henderson told me he's getting the records back, but where are you getting that type of ability?" Kyle said in amazement and he sighed and shrugged. "I'm not sure, but it's been happening, since Geordi got turned into assassin and the dreams just keep getting worse." he said and they nodded as Will said it to him.
"Whoever Etana is in league might have something to do with that dad, Sir, but if that's the first indication. And they're connected to those pills we have to look into it, in case something else happens, because if they're connected. Then the mole chose the latest target and it's Wesley now and whatever they have in mind for him now. But this is enough we're going to do some damage here if they try anything else with him."
"If we have to, if they're still on the ship though we arrested her since and with that in mind. Lal, I'm hereby ordering you to remain active until we catch the plant on board the ship. If Wesley's gets compromised you're taking orders by me, your father, Ensign's Lefler, Dayton and Kurland, as well as Drs. Crusher, Anenzi and Pulaski, and Captain Picard, understood?" Will said sharply and he nodded in agreement as they heard her.
"Yes Commander I understand, but how far is this woman willing to go to get this game off the ship, if he's the required drone to get it to earth?" she asked and Wesley sighed as he answered that. "As far as killing a teenager by a very dangerous fever or an accident in the shaft like what happened earlier. Lal I'm ordering, if I black out and the programming takes hold, ignore my orders and listen to them."
"The situations about to start going in reverse, if I'm the target, as it didn't work with them as I shut off the programming in their cases. With my possibly being the primary target, my orders are to not listen to me, but listen to my squadron. My squadron are Robin Lefler, Charlie Dayton and Jake Kurland, you're to listen to them. She's going to try replicate the route I took to get me out of the ship, so I'm making it clear."
"And she tries the first site to site, turn of and disable it after that, and report the route taken directly to the bridge, as they and the engine crew are tracing my movement. But ignore my orders and only listen to the quartet, my squadron. And the adult senior staff and security crews, but Robin, Charlie and I are working on a new program meant to circumvent plans in this, and with them reveal however the plant is."
"So once either of them callut the security code you're only accepting their orders, as well as the orders given to you by the senior staff, security crew and engineering team, and don't listen to me, understand." he said and they heard a firm tone. "Alright Wes I understand and believe me, I find the plant and nothing is saving him from ending up in a detention cell if you get hurt." she said and they nodded to that.
"If these things are connected, there's more to it than that at the current moment if we have a man looking like your own personal boogieman. But if they're getting more sadistic in their strategies, it means that if the seizures or whatever they did to you last night. And have them get started repeatedly and it's they're having the hallucinations being the triggered, as a way to direct you to wherever they want you to go."
"To give the antidote just to end the pain, than its they got a hold of another device again, but dreams, dizzy spells and insomnia. And if it keeps, it's heading towards those pained jolts and induced seizures you were getting by. But if they're waiting for us to let our guard down thinking the situation is done with and that's when they try it. Though with the fact you deflected their plans kiddo." Geordi said as Wesley answered him.
"Than I'm probably the intended target, but what the heck is it they're trying to use me for, is this just a new plot to destroy the prime directive. Or did she make a deal with the Daimon that used that device on the captain, intentional or is she trying to use me to get to him." he said and they nodded. "Whichever one it is, if they think we're letting them get away with it, they'd better think again." Picard said sharply and he nodded to him.
"No I think if she couldn't do it by us getting it off the ship and infecting the entire fleet than its by having you finish the job honey. And that's the only reason she could possibly have for draining you this far down. But between that and your squadron and their stupidity: but exhaustion, malnutrition, suffering the side effects of that device and these pills. That's the reason you're the last one standing possibly, you're the intended host."
"Though Charlie was and with it now, if her next plan to get that thing off the ship doesn't work and it's this is the big one." Robin said and he sighed. "If that's true we have to see when the timer set to go off. But if this was like the secondary episode in season 1 in the aftermath to the pilot episode. He has those spasms and the parasite shows itself every time the team mate to the lead duo blacked out at the time."
"If that's what's coming you don't have a choice now, because whatever this is, if it's a cross between that episode and two traumas and a waking nightmare. I can't control my actions so if there's a trigger to this, and it's set to go of, before she gets to me to the shuttlebay. Detonate that trigger, or that programming is going to kill me, if it lands me back in the extension shaft, because I left the pack, the one you checked Eric, in there."
"But if this, whatever it is that's causing the programming staying active that maybe our only chance to deactivate after that." he said and Anenzi crossed his arms. "If it is, and it starts up by that point if this programming is staying active. It's depending on what is causing it to and the second we figure it out. That's our only chance of preventing her from walking you right out the front door." he said and he nodded as he answered him.
"That's the only bottle I used, but there's got to be more to it then this, but what I don't know, what I do know is that. And if you got a better look at me now earlier, is that ever since I stopped taking these. It's feeling like I'm coming down off of some narcotics than just plain caffeine. But like I said I had to stop three times during that chase through the ship, feeling like I was going to lose control of my stomach and a massive headache."
"I have no clue what these are cut with, but I got the added bottles, but if that's her next plan. Then it's to trigger a walking time bomb so she can start a war and put me in here while doing it. What's also probably in that intention, if they got a hold of another thought making device is trying to continue with their expansion of getting these to the academy now." he said and sighed as he looked at his mother and Deanna then.
"But the nightmares, and feeling like I'm recovering from rehab from this crap, exhaustion and I haven't had a chance to eat a normal meal, because the trio keep talking me into going out for pizza. Lack of the real food my body needs. All in all, at this rate, if the faction she belongs to wants to start a war it's by that three way rule and some sort of detonator and if those are it, I'm getting rid of it, now."
"But with their planet being the one the federation used to go to for lie sure and sabbatical at times. I'd say if anything, that they struck an alliance with the Aldeans and possibly the Cardassians. I mean Maxwell said that he didn't believe there was any good reason for a science station in the Cuellar system. But a military transport, what if this alliance was the said situation he meant." he told the quartet gently and they nodded.
"When did those dreams start exactly, because if it all points back to same time frame it's enough this wasn't an accident, but completely intended and you're the primary target." Will asked slowly. "Four months ago Sir, just after Geordi got turned into an assassin, but they started four months and the pills were prescribed at the same time. But whatever these are cut with, I think that the time delay reached its right time."
"As to why I'm saying this its because just when we reached the big one and the rendezvous starts, the effects of coming down off the high, from any kind of drug, started hitting me. I have to stop three times in the Jeffries tubes. Though the first jolt hit me in the cargo bay when I got the transporter on line in there. The pain in my head starts building once I hit the first terminal, and started getting worse by the second."
"But by the time I was watching you from the tubes leading back to the converter, the pain was so bad I had to freeze for five minutes. And then when Data ends the programming the dizzy spells get started and I'm feeling slightly drained and sick to my stomach and with it. Is looking like I'm suffering from withdrawal and I'm really suffering a severe case of sleep deprivation." he told him and he nodded to that gently.
Hearing that they sighed. "Are the damn fools not monitoring your physical health over there in the dorms, I mean four months awake. So I'm looking at sleep deprivation, looking like you're suffering the comedown from drugs, you lost weight and are suffering nightmares about us. Just who the hell isn't paying attention here exactly, because if you get hurt or sick when at the controls, and you're ship could crash at the moment."
"And if that had happened it's going to do even more damage than it has already?!" Beverly said in shock and he nodded in agreement to that. "Yeah and at the moment, the ones catching this are you, but they're not, so what's that say now exactly?" he asked, looking at the sextet and they nodded in agreement to that. "It says that's our bonds are strong enough that we can see this for what it is and they can't right now."
"And its because they're too busy dealing with your classmates getting into trouble a few dozen other things over there at the current moment. And we've known you even longer than they have, to the point that after repeated problems, this time it's personal after they just barely killed you in the extension shaft this afternoon at the moment." Geordi said and Deanna finished that remark, as she crossed her arms then.
"And if that says anything else right now, it's that our bonds are enough that you're not holding back information from us, let alone you'd never lie to us." Deanna said to him and he nodded. "No I'd never lie to you and I'm not about to start now, but I stopped using those pills three months ago, and I haven't touched the refills or the back ups. And like I said the pill bottles of the refills are in my stuff, but their untouched."
"This keeps up and whoever is trying to frame me is making it seem like I'm taking in one too many or I'm on drugs, but try to remember this conversation. Because we'd been had by a skilled manipulator more than once and what just happened is another reason to end it." he said and they nodded to that in agreement. "Alright that does it, if the officers in the dorms are not paying attention to this, let alone the nurse."
"Than you're staying home till we're sure of what is in that crap and counteracting the damn side effects." Beverly said with a firm growl and he nodded to her decision. "If we were back 375 years, it's though I'm legally an adult, you still have rights to make decisions for me and with those words in mind here. I've got two years before I really am legally an adult, so with that, though Admiral Brand is in charge there."
"Parental and legal guardian decisions now mom, you four have legal rights in the federation, though if we were back in that time frame, it's till I'm 21, I'm still under age and you make the decisions in my health still." he told her and she smiled dangerously at that. "If that technician is setting you up for something, he's getting his head handed when we find out what the pharmacist that created these put into them."
"And with those words in mind, just what the hell are they planning right now, just what is the connection, everything is in the exact same time frame." Picard asked him and he sighed. "I'm not entirely sure Sir, what I do know is these first two pieces all started in the exact same time frame, and Etana chose the week I come home to try this. And I don't trust MacGregor, but if he's also been here for the same amount of time."
"I think it's two things, but if he's a part of this as well that might be her next attempt, but whatever her primary intention is and was its enough that we have to keep an eye on this. But Ensign Bates, Greyson, if you need to confiscate the refills go ahead, because there's got to be more to this than we think. In fact tomorrow, before I'm back on duty, I'll give you that bag with them." he said to him and they nodded to him
"That bottle I gave you is empty, but the other ones, they're in my stuff, anything happens in the next few days and we have to run research on the damn things. If I suffer any type of jolt when I'm on duty in the engine room surrounded by you, Geordi and the others this time." he said and they both nodded as they exchanged looks with the seven, Miles O'Brian and Watkins at the added speculation then.
"Thanks for telling me that, but if someone is trying to frame you, they're going to see this as trying to set you up for multiple allnighters. And with a bunch of stuff we consider a ticking time bomb waiting to go off here. Especially if the kids in your squadron are trying to get you to cut loose at the academy. And like you just told us, you don't drink, so it's got to be something else now." Bates said and he nodded to him gently at that.
"Whatever she had in mind here for me next, could be the rest of the book when they made the movie and it's in reverse this time. But if her plans didn't pan out once she's going to try again. But if I'm the target, then the entire intention was still getting these to the academy. But if that's the intention it's getting a foothold on earth, and with that you know what to do." he said and they nodded as they got the entire intention then.
"Oh god, that's the entire plan, if getting these to the entire fleet never worked it's by getting them to the academy and reprogrammed. The academy is on earth, as is command HQ and from earth the foothold starts spreading like a disease out of San Fransisco. Aside from that and it's going into the rest of the planet, before it gets into the rest of the federation and whoever's idea this was is combined to the psychosis."
"That Maxwell was suffering, exact words being when it becomes clear what the Cardassians have done I will be vindicated." she said and Picard sighed. "What they have or have not done yet is irrelevant right now and with that if that's their plan and they made an alliance with Risa. If she was intending on infecting the entire academy it's by getting one to earth, and they infect our home planet, at the time here as well."
"And just before infecting the rest of the federation, though with that in mind until we get this group off the ship. And it's making sure that the detention cells are locked down securely and if you're the target meant to do that. You're being put on sabbatical until further notice until we're sure that the programming is destroyed in not just you, but everyone else on the ship." he said and she and Will nodded in agreement to that news.
"So turning your age groups against us and Starfleet falls apart, because each generation is in a war with each other. You headed off getting these off the ship by draining yourself this far down and nearly landing yourself in the emergency room. And just to finish off the mission, if that was her entire plan now, than it's being prevented at at all costs right now." Beverly said in shocked disbelief and Will nodded in agreement to that remark.
"Yeah, but she just drained 3/4's of my strength by Robin and me figuring this out, if it's not over yet, making sure that piece of junk never gets off the ship. Even though Robin and Jake were incapicitated I still had Charlie, but having it go in the run around. And across 42 decks, that's going too far right now, but whatever is in those pills. That is the problem, and is part of this, I mean sleep deprivation, malnutrition, caffeine withdrawal."
"If this says anything she was, or they were, making sure that every step to creating the perfect weapon out of teenager officer was implemented. But if that's true than it means I'm going to be in bed for the next month if that happens. If the programming goes active, if that headset she had for me has anything else thrown into it." he told her and her eyes narrowed angrily at that as Robin said it for her as she looked at him at that.
"That hag drained 3/4's of your strength, just from that one chase down alone, alright, alright, if this was the movie. Then you're demonstrating every symptom there was of having nightmares about this maniac. But it's determining just what the heck is in those pills, if there's a timer to it and it's possibly like whatever hallucinogen was in the pills, but cutting this across two traumas and a waking nightmare could be it though."
"She lands you in here for something worse than exhaustion I'm going to kill her myself for that!" Robin said in shock and he sighed. "Act one of the movie is over with, but we shifted to parts two and three now, trying to figure out where the parasite jumped to, who's the new host and where this is going to lead. But if making sure her plans to infest the capital never come forward, we don't have a choice." he said and they nodded firmly.
"Then it's making sure you don't get off the ship and deactivating the programming, before it puts you in the E.R., yes we know. You're the one with the most knowledge regarding the damn things. Alright Robin, with you and him having the most knowledge about the damn things, extended research. But look at you son, if that one chase through the ship earlier drained 3/4's of your strength, and you're the intended host."
"Just what's going to happen if we have to do it again, because you're looking like someone suffering the come down from drugs or coming down with something period. Whatever's in the time delay, if these pills have more than caffeine in them the effects of it is going to have you collapse even before we get to you, and that happens again you're going to get hurt?" Will said gently as he rubbed his back softly as he looked at him.
"I don't know, but you four are my parents and legal guardians Sir, if it takes extending this trip longer it's the only option, now. Just so I can get away from the trio, it would be worth it now anyway at the moment. I can spend a year to 18 months up here just so the next episode focused on me doesn't result in doing permanent damage to our bonds. But getting away from the trio, and off the team is all I want right now at the moment.,
To answer you, it's a case of peer pressure and bad influence with the trio, though Josh and I are the children of career officers. And the trio are a bunch of party animals in training, this keeps up I'm getting held back, because they're costing me time to study. But one, I'm studying every protocol I learned since I was up here, two it's working from a getting used to being behind the controls of a ship, ten times smaller then this one."
"And when I'm supposed to be working on a couple of flight maneuvers that are beyond difficult. I didn't have that many distractions when I was up here, but then I was on duty and not in college, for lack of a better word here. That's the problem, they're acting like a bunch of college students, I'm 3/4's of the way into Starfleet. And I take the training seriously, because I'm in the thick of it, for 3 1/2 years in the thick of it at all times."
"Aside from that I think you already know what I'm really trying to say with that one but: a year's separation and then this happens. It just gave another reason to why I preferred being up here than being on earth right now. Because of the added side effects of being a medical born and away from my parents and guardians and said parent is a medical expert as well." he said and the seven nodded as they got the message to that remark.
'He's homesick, yeah I can see it clearly, 'I don't know why I bothered to leave now' yeah we get the point kiddo and you're staying home until you're fully recovered. But 10 months, to 18 I don't care how long it takes, if it means keeping you from having your career destroyed. We're dealing with this, before they do anymore damage to you physically.' Will thought to himself at his remark, as Picard thought over what he heard.
'If it takes keeping him home to heal physically from this and whatever trauma that comes with it, it's going to be worth having us like we used to be. On the job training, us being together it's going to be worth extending the visit back now. But keeping the little brats in his squadron from screwing with his career it's another catch. But I'm not losing him, not like that, he's like my son, I'm not letting go.' Picard thought to himself then.
'Jean Luc, his journey is going to be far reaching now in this, but once back at the academy for things, it's going to result in his needing to make a choice if there's trouble.' he heard and hid a mental nod to that. 'What choices exactly in two years?' he asked and he heard a sigh.'Whether he chooses to continue with being a Starfleet officer or if he wants to choose a different path after that now."
'If we had a word for this it's by choosing the path to greatness now.' he heard and he sighed at that at that as he looked at the 19 year old, as he thought it gently. 'Son you can't just give up everything you ever trained and worked for now, not after all the time we spent getting you ready for this.' he thought before his last remark got his attention then, before Wesley said it as he answered his thoughts as he looked at him.
"Don't worry, Sir, with the fact that I'm spending the next 18 months here at home, I have very good idea of what could cause that incident to begin with. And its not happening right now, Sir, like you keeping saying right now. Regarding what ever your conversation with whatever that traveler said to you, I have a very good idea here. And of where this is going, and it's not going to happen either, I'm like Jackson now ."
"I'm not having my life destroyed for some silly little girl who wants to look handsome in her uniform, but not when I'm taken already, but the trio, they're party animals." he said and they nodded. "The trio are a bunch of party animals, just what is going on over there if you're saying that exactly?" Beverly asked and he ran his hand through his hair then. "They're trying to get me to cut loose, just enjoy being separated from you guys."
"The usual stuff in college, excessive amounts of junk food, fooling around when you're supposed to be studying. I'm a skilled training ensign and one who spent the better part of three years now learning by example so as a result. If my Scifi counterpart part on that movie saga had told them that he doesn't want his title and his abilities thrown at him every time he turns around and he combined both pieces of his life together."
"He'd be me right now as I got the best of both worlds, you're letting me train without the added issues. The only reason I started was because I want to continue serving under your command Sirs, I'm not there to screw around. But Delta, Gamma and Red squadrons are just like being aboard our ship, they don't screw around. And they focus on their jobs, I'm reaching the limit of quitting the squadron, so I can focus on my work."
"As to why Jean is trying to get me to relax and act like Nick, but I'm not a first year cadet. I've been in the thick of it for three years and she, let alone Nick and Sito don't seem to understand that whatsoever right now. Josh is like me, his father is stationed on board the Hood right now, we're in the thick of it, they aren't. And frankly they're the reason I looked like this, before I got hit by that jolt in your office mom."
"In fact I'd prefer to be on Red squadron, Gamma or even Delta, their parents are all career Starfleet officers and take the job seriously. In fact a week ago someone started a bar fight at the tavern and it turned into a riot there and the cops got called in. And before you ask, I wasn't involved, I was in my dorm studying." he added to her and she nodded as he went further then as Will and Picard hid a chuckle at the add on then.
As he went further as she answered him with an amused smile at the remark. "Nice come back and save there honey, and with that. You're lucky I didn't find out you were there, or you'd be in big trouble for getting in trouble with the police." she said smiling and he chuckled as he went further as he explained it to them. "Issues of being in college if we were in that time frame, but someone gets in trouble at the tavern here."
"And it's going to get them expelled if they get in trouble with the cops, and it's happened 5 times. In the last 10 months, hey Charlie you remember the one we saw at the tavern, and what caused it exactly at the time buddy. I mean the three of us together, we hear a crash and look up in time to see whatever caused it. To end up on our table after flying across the room at the time?" he asked him smiling then at that
And he and Robin started laughing at the memory as he answered him, smiling. "Yeah I do and it's because of a case of pool table shots. And the one that got shot right off the table, breaking two glasses and a pitcher at the time. And the cue ball ended up on our table after getting knocked across the room." he said and they and Robin exchanged smiles. "The cue ball ended up on your table?" Jenson repeated as he started laughing.
"Yeah, long story, but the three of us were talking, before we heard a loud smack followed by two crashes and someone across the room call out a heads up to us. Before whatever caused it crashed into the pretzel bowl that was sitting on the table next. And knocking it off ofit as I looked to see what it was and found a cue ball lying on the floor. Next to it, as I got the message and looked at him as I answered him as I picked it up."
"And said that whoever shot it, take your strength down a notch before they break a window next after breaking two glasses and a pitcher already. Before the guy walks up to us and takes it back to the pool table so they can keep playing." he said and they nodded as they started laughing at that remark. "As for Charlie and his getting in trouble, it's not him that caused that riot." Robin said and Wesley nodded as he finished that remark.
"To answer your unasked question Charlie was framed at the tavern that day, so care to tell them the truth, first two initials Derek, except for the last two." he asked and Hanson paled and he quickly answered him. "I don't know what you're talking about." he said and Wesley crossed his arms as he, Robin and Charlie looked at him sternly. "Don't you, well it seems that the truth is what doesn't matter to you whatsoever right now."
"First that rumor about Wes and then you Hansons try to frame a good young officer for starting a riot when all he was trying to do was protect four 17 year olds. And said 17 year olds from getting caught in the middle and one of them from getting her wrist broken, your cousin was drunk, action for action. In what happened in ten forward and the hallway until Brand hears his side of the story." Robin said to him with a stern growl.
"It was Dayton's fault, just what is your problem, duty to the truth, this, that, what about duty to your friends exactly?" he snapped and Wesley straightened up. "Your hero barely killed our's by dragging Jackson's grandfather into a POW stint. And turns a blind eye to it and he gets arrested by Generals Hammond, Carter's great grandfather. And Landry, that's what, Derek, to us its duty to the truth, always has been, always will be."
"Your hero's are bunch of cold blooded lunatic's, and why should I be surprised anyway right now, because it's very common in black ops. The more crazy you are, and the more extreme the situations you seem to get out into at the time. But that's why all of us took after Commander Riker and Colonel and Commanders' Jackson. We're the think our way out of the box type and you're just as sadistic as O'neill is right now in this case."
"O'neill tried it once and it kills Damien Reynolds, your cousin tried it again and Charlie turns him in for killing Deacon Fisher. And now your cousin tries to frame him for being a good officer, it's duty to the truth which is your only chance, so cut the crap. You're just as crazy as they are and jealous, so grow up, Derek, you're jealous. And it's because Jackson's ideas work in preventing footholds and other situations at the moment."
"And O'neill's don't, you try to arrest me and it gets you arrested for reckless endangerment. But look at the facts right now, I pulled it off by doing this in stealth and evading capture for for close to 20 hours at the time now now. And you get arrested in one hour, but drinking or drugs, anf phasers don't mix, you've been on light duty. And for close to two months because you keep doing cross chemicals right now."
"You also get busted for nearly killing Charlie, and your cousin has the very same problems with Charlie and as does Nick. None of you are going to make it captain or graduate from the academy until you learn this." he said and Greyson ended it at that remark. "Alright all of you calm down, alright, I get that you and Chatlie are sick of this attitude from him, and we'd like the whole story, boys, what's going on if you said that."
"So care to explain that to us, guys, if that wasn't the reason Charlie got in trouble?" Greyson asked and Wesley nodded to him. "Yeah, it's a long story, but it's time you heard our side of it, like Charlie said he's paying me back by getting him off the hook. He's paying me back by getting me off the team and out of the academy, until I'm fully recovered and though no longer leader of Gamma squadron third generation."
"He's thinking about the safety of his team and out of our friendship, he was going to get me on his team. Just before Nick and Hanson pulled that stunt, as to why now, it's because Derek's uncle works at the academy, Derek's cousin was on Nova. But he's got the very same attitude that Makepeace and O'neill do now, but Baron Hanson. He told you only his side of the story, making it sound like Charlie started a riot at the tavern."
"The Hansons, from Derek himself to his uncle and the cousin that was held back a year, they all see it as screw the first duty. To save their careers it's 'duty to your friends' here, Charlie was framed all this time now, Sirs, mom, Deanna." he said and Deanna probed his feelings as they saw the protective tone of brotherly love in his feelings for Dayton. And desperation in Hanson's mental voice and crossed her arms at that news.
"He's telling us the truth and Derek is hiding the facts to this case, he may say that ability got annoying even though I'm counselor. But then it didn't matter to Wesley, regarding my empathic abilities and with those words in mind now." she said and Wesley waved her over and she nodded as she moved to him. And he pressed his forehead to hers and opened up his mind to her as she saw each memory from the day the trio met.
Leading into the latest crash and into the riot and she nodded, as she felt and saw the entire 7 months of time they were together. The tone of protective anger in his mental voice as she saw a boy that looked like Hanson then. Before it switched course as she felt a tone of friendship to it and then she felt a beyond happy tone to it. Of being to act normal, before a severe touch of loneliness then as the duo left as she said it to the trio.
"Hanson is trying to get himself up here to rejoin his cousin, or Derek down there in the same way Captain, Beverly, but the first duty. None of them believe in this however, because they're all studying O'neill's grandfather's philosophy after what he did to Nick's. Wes just showed me everything from his and Charlie's point of view from the day they met to the, whatever crash happened, prior to this and leading into the riot now, Sir."
"But Derek is afraid of that truth coming out and as to why that is it's connected to the rumors he's created about you, Beverly and Wes. To prevent it from getting out or the fact that something happened at the academy, it's Derek's cousin framed Charlie for a riot. After he got turned in for a whatever crash there was and going by Wes's tone someone did it again and it killed a cadet." she said and Picard crossed his arms sternly.
"You just hit the nail on the head, Deanna, the duo and I found each other when I arrived at the academy. And Charlie told me he was dealing with a Hanson as well after I gave him the name of ours here. But I was around for everything that Derek's cousin pulled and in the end, though Baron Hanson tried to focus on duty to your friends. Brand told you the duty to the truth piece, but here's what she didn't explain, regarding it."
"But you recall the attempted cover up that Jack O'neill pulled and Daniel Jackson exposed when they were my age?" Wesley asked and Picard nodded. "It happened again, and Charlie exposed him to the enquiry, of ten officers in the enquiry. Hanson's grandfather and father wanted to give him a second chance. And Andrea did, but he was on probation ever since?" he asked and the trio nodded to him and he and Will nodded.
"Alright Wesley let us have it, if this is enough to blow Derek's reputation with us even more, then it is already, it's enough now. For if they try the same thing with you and that's it, they get caught in the act and they're pariahs at the academy after that." Picard said sharply and he nodded to him. "I suppose you heard there was another attempt at the starburst, Captain, and a cadet decided to do what Commander Jackson did."
"And as a result other said cadet lost their chance at serving under you?" Wesley asked and he nodded and Wesley nodded. "Well it wasn't Charlie that got in trouble with the police, whatsoever, the reason Derek is giving you such a hard time right now. Or in this case is trying to deflect the truth in regarding this to you and he's panicking now. It's because he knows the truth, regarding why he and Charlie are at odds with each other."
"Well the truth is it's because Charlie caught his cousin's attempt to try and prevent the truth right now. His cousin attempted the starburst and it kills another cadet, but Charlie exposed that cover up and turned them in for it, his cousin and Nick. And it's because his cousin is also at the academy, to answer the unasked question, regarding this. And why Charlie and I are so close, but Charlie's full name is Charlie Andrew, 'Joseph' Dayton."
"Derek's cousin, his name is Charlie Andrew 'Peter' Hanson and with that in mind, the Charlie, the one that got in trouble with the police 7 months ago. At the time was Derek's cousin, Charlie Peter Hanson, but Hanson went by his middle name. At the academy, his name was Peter Hanson to his friends and if this was why Nick chose me. That's the entire conspiracy, but I've been paged by the NID and its forget about it."
"We're SGC, Gamma, SGC, Nova was NID and with that to protect me from having my career destroyed Charlie is taking charge here. Just so the the adult officers at the academy could tell them apart Hanson changed his name to Peter Hanson. And at the academy, but here it is, Hanson is Nick's best friend, and that's why I want out." he told them and they nodded as Picard crossed his arms at the new information.
"That's why you told us this, there's more then I thought to it, so that answers the other question, regarding Colin Marks. Marks was close to Hanson and went duty to your friends, but that's enough to get you expelled for not coming forward. Along with it is even if you weren't expelled as we gave chance after chance, after chance. To come forward, and you throw it back in our face, before he goes for the more direct approach."
"Charlie who's philosophy did you follow in training when at the academy exactly, if you said that Commander Jackson was the one training you?" Picard asked and Dayton smiled as he answered him. "I followed Colonel Jackson's in training mode, like Wes and Jake have, Sir, but everything he did, I would have done the same. If our positions were in reverse, but Hanson, he's following O'neill's, tried it again and it killed Deacon now."
"To answer the other unasked question, Deacon is Leo Deacon Fisher, who was the previous attempt at the starburst, and I did what Commander Jackson did. In regarding. O'neill and he's been hold back a year as a result, but he's on his second to last strike. If he gets in trouble one more time and Brand is expelling him for it. But who would you compare us to if we were your age, Commander?" he asked him and Will explained that.
"That you guys and Robin remind me of Nick, me, Anna and Peter when we were your age, so you follow us and their grandparents. Hanson's following after Jack and his grandfather?" he said to him and they nodded. "Yes so that's one reason, that he's giving Wes grief, and the other is because you, and Admiral Brand. You're refusing to let Derek go to the academy when Wes is there." he said and Picard nodded to him firmly at that.
"And Peter framed Charlie for starting a riot at the tavern when he was really trying to protect his squadron, Kate was with us. And along with Hailey, Grogan, Elliott and Satterfield's younger siblings, and to prevent the quartet from getting caught in the middle. He told them to leave as we did what you did and tried to get it under control before the cops showed up guys." Wesley said, looking at Geordi and the sextet gently.
"Your brothers and sisters are barely 17 and they get caught in the middle, and it's because of the fight and argument in the rec hall at the AQZ in the movie. Nick is Rico after he learns his girlfriend is supposedly dating his rival in jump ball teams. And the ending results nearly destroy his career and his life, because he didn't take your advice mom, in cooling things down before she shipped out at the time and then to top it off."
"Hanson screws up again by getting arrested twice for being drunk and starting a bar brawl and riot, and before Charlie could get in trouble. I told her that truth and as to why we had to get the trio out of the room, as he heard, from me. That the said four he was trying to protect are really the baby brothers and sisters. And to my fellow junior crew members and all of them are on board th enterprise." he said and they straightened.
"Our brother's and sisters ended up in the middle of that fight and you tried to get them out of the room?!" Dana Satterfield said in shock and they nodded to her. "Yeah Dana and believe me, I'm glad I did or the resulting fight could have broken Chris's wrist as a result." he said and Grogan answered that. "That bad Wes?" he said with a low growl to that new and he shook his head. "Worse, I'm talking about the riot the commander walked into that night here on the ship, and Dana nearly got her wrist broken."
"But just after Marks and Henderson gave me that concussion that night after Sarek's loss of control and the results were two fights in fifteen minutes that night, Jase'." he said and they nodded as they watched Hanson pale at that. "Well that sums it up in everything we need to know, Charlie here was innocent of all charges. Well we can clear the record of that, you're off the hook Charlie." Beverly said firmly and Picard nodded.
"Agreed, now that I got the whole story you're free of that charge, Commander." he said and Dayton nodded and he nodded. "Whoa, wait commander?" Jake repeated and Wesley smiled as got the subtext then. "Our team is going by ranks, but I'm a full Commander, he and Robin, are Lieutenant Commanders, you're a full Lieutenant, Lal is Junior Grade and Derek is an Ensign." Wesley said and the trio smiled at the news then."
"So what he told us wasn't a story, you did meet up at the academy in the side of a week?" Geordi asked and he nodded. "Yeah he and I connected that first day at the academy, that's how I met Robin, and separated from Jake. We became a trio after that, leading into his graduation at the time now, Brand and Deladier. They were watching the three of us together, saw the bonds between us, him and me, the act of best friends."
"And surrogate twin brothers, we were completely equal in everything and they decided you were the training station now. She didn't have to hear your opinions Deanna, mom, so she decided to help it along and sent them here at the time. As a surprise when I came home, not knowing that by doing that decision now. That she just helped prevent an incursion into the federation this week now." he said and they all nodded gently.
"Yes and I think her planning in helping you worked just a little too well, because this is a side of you we've never since before, kiddo. Then again, when you're this gifted, you stand out, when around adults, you stand out even more. But having someone just like you works, but four training ensign's and all with the same personality traits. I think that our trying to help you worked a little too well." Will said to him with a bemused smile.
"That's one portion of the therapy Deanna and Lieutenant Michaels thinks is helping and as does Dr. Pulaski, but the next. It's keeping 'him' out of the picture and barring him from me, permenantly, and making your own decisions. And finally, it's by getting the trio off the ship, and exchange them for Sito, Kate and Josh and get them up here. What with my being on sabbatical for 18 to 20 months, Sirs." he said and the sextet nodded.
"Well, you didn't have to hear my conversation with Guinan to know that's what I told her, but then our bond turned into into the one you have with Deanna. And as a result you read me in the same way she does right now as well, Wes, but that's what I said last night. And I busted the trio that started this as well, same remarks Mendall told you earlier, Bev, but I made your decision for you and they were relieved of duty last night."
"After Gillespie lost it this time last night as a result here, all in all, everything he told you, Sir, is just what I decided. And I didn't have to hear Kate's opinions to know she agrees with that, as does Deanna, so that's our best shot. But Sito's got one chance to fix her career and by learning the true ways of Starfleet. By being on the youngest version of the most famous ship in the fleet." Michaels said and Picard nodded to her.
"Him who exactly?" Robin asked and Wesley ran his hand through his hair. "This traveler we encountered, gave them some remark and as a result it was just after that. That the captain activated me and the trio started the reason for the rumors. But our lost ninth member suggested we make a pact, said pact was that what happened. And either in his ready room or whatever was done when drugged was never spoken of again."
"But these fools broke that pact, Derek hears that conversation and his mind took a completely sick turn and he decided if this was enough to cause trouble. Then he's using it and it's resulted in this, I don't care if he tries to tell Nick or Jean that story. As Sito's with us, because once they sees the truth of those rumors he tells them. As they see the way sextet are around me now, and he's dead meat." he said and she nodded to him.
"Uh huh, alright, so if this keeps up and the next touch is the honesty test, what's the reason Hanson, that is Peter Hanson, is giving you grief at the academy." Geordi said and he sighed as he nodded to Hanson. "You're looking at the reason right now, aside from him crossing health lines not meant to be crossed. And whatever you were talking about, before you let him have it after the explosion in the lab last year, before Ogus II."
"Is the exact reason she agrees with you that his being there with with Peter is like throwing gas on an open flame and we all know what happens when you do that. But as we just arrested the ones that started this, but our next step. Now is to prevent it from spreading, by either getting one of the trio up here, so she can learn the truth, our side of the story now." he said and Worf sighed in exasperation as he answered him.
"These rumors regarding you, your mother and the captain, and she's not adding fuel to the fire, by sending him to join his cousin. And Peter Hanson is giving you trouble, because we're refusing to let Derek leave the Enterprise. We understand and frankly, you're our prize pupil, and now that we've seen you two, Robin and Lal in action. In a mission this dangerous, but the way you handled it, both last night and today."
"You demonstrated every aspect to what we keep telling him, Anthony Farley and Harrison Jenkins in training and despite the fact it's been four years since since our launch date. Ever since Jenkins met Hanson nothing's changed and he's on the edge of washing right out of on the job training, what do you suggest regarding this. And if this means we can add on to your squadron up here?" he asked and Wesley explained that.
"Sito Jaxa is just like me, the act of peer pressure is getting to her, and I know she thinks of Josh and me as her best friends, so with that. We choose her, Josh and Katie Jiggins to join our squadron, so her only chance at prevent a case of career suicide. And it turning into political sabotage too, is by her spending 18 months in on the job training as she learns everything needed under you." he said and the seven nodded to him then.
