A/N: All right! Here it is! The third installment! Enjoy!


Take a deep breath. Just walk into the room. That's it, nothing more. Worf's right behind you. There's nothing dangerous in here, just music and art.

One foot in front of the other Geordi. Easy does it. No emotions. Who the hell am I kidding? Data was best friend on this ship. He was practically human. He was as close as an android could get. And with that emotion chip…Where is that emotion chip?!? It's bugging the hell out of me!

What the… Oh, God I forgot all about Spot. I guess I'll take him. Even though we don't exactly get a long that well.

But I guess Spot has other plans. A Klingon with a cat. Kind of an oxymoron, at least to me. But then again Worf does have his soft side. Now I'm not going as far to say he's a teddy bear or anything but being around humans has softened him up just a little bit.

Engineering doesn't exactly seem quite so great anymore. I've started to call for Data so many times but I've caught myself. Deanna keeps asking me if I want to talk. I can tell she's worried about me. They all are, the whole crew.

I can't even look at B4 without a feeling of hate wash over me. If he thinks that he can take Data's place he's dead wrong. I've never hated anything like this before. Not even Barkley. Barkley was just a bit lazy and dreamy. This…this thing that calls itself Data's brother is just…I don't know. Wrong, I guess. It's disrespecting his memory to replace him so fast. No android, no person in fact, could ever take his place.

I watched as Data learned on this ship. I saw as he studied emotions. I laughed at naivety. I shouldn't have done that. I took for granted that he didn't feel emotions.

All I do these days is sit in Ten Forward. Guinan tries to start conversations up but I can tell I've become a cold person nowadays. I'm hateful and snap at everyone. The Captain asked me if I needed a break from the Enterprise. I refused and barked at him how I was perfectly fine. I caught myself before I really started to speak my mind. Luckily, the Captain was understanding, a little shocked, but understanding.

I've been looking for someone to blame. I can't find anyone but myself. I launched Data out into space. I only gave him one prototype. I didn't tell him that he was needed here. Oh, man, Deanna would have a field day with me.
