Susie 'Q'
The bridge was quiet... the Enterprise-D was humming along at high warp. But the peaceful atmosphere was about to end!
Troi: "Captain... I sense a local time-space... 'hole'?"
Picard: "You mean..."
Before Picard could finish his query/sentence, a bright flash came - which always preceded the arrival of 'Q'.
Riker: "As usual, Deanna... your senses are right on target!"
Q: "Hellooo, to all! Even to you, my dear Micro-brain..." (said while looking in Worf's disgusted direction)
Picard: "Alright, Q... What do you want... this time?" (spoken in an irritated huff)
Q: "Mon Capitan... How my arrivals do anger you... Do you need some...?"
Suddenly a cup of Earl Grey tea in an ancient porcelain cup appeared from thin air into the right hand of 'Q'.
Q: "Or maybe, you need a cup of 'Joe'... Extra hot!?" (the tea was replaced by a mug of coffee, black as night)
Picard: "No, Thank-You... Q. Just say your peace and be off then, if you would... Please!" (again, in a huff!)
All the while, during this exchange... Data was observing it all, from his seat on the bridge... so fascinating.
Q: "Alright, Picard... I'll get right down to brass tacks... as the saying goes. I've come to warn you!"
Picard: "What? You long ago warned us of the Borg. What could be worse than that, in all the galaxy?"
Q: "Ohhhhhh, my poor-poor parents... would tell you, what I'm about to tell you. You've no idea... no idea at all!"
Riker, also in a huff: "OK, 'Q'... if you don't mind... Out with it... Then 'bug out'!"
Q suddenly got an evil, impish grin on his face (his occasional M.O.) Then he laughed... quite loudly too!
Q: "You all are simply in for the hugest of surprises... Family is coming... and-a-calling... on YOU!"
Picard: "Family... what?... who?!"
Q: "My... little... kid... sister!"
Q then rolled his eyes, like they were caught in a hurricane... For the 'Her-a-cane' that was about to arrive!
In a flash Q disappeared into thin air... "Don't say I didn't have the courtesy... to warn you!" (Q - from thin air)
