Star Trek Enterprise: Renegade Orion Slave Girls
Chapter 3
The next morning, Archer, Malcolm, Travis, Trip, Hoshi, and T'Pol were eating breakfast together in the mess hall.
"Have you had to lift weights yet at the gym Travis?" asked Malcolm.
"Not yet. Although I did see one of the Orions in the corridor," said Travis.
"I bet you may have to go lift weights very soon if you come across another one," joked Trip.
"Yeah, probably," said Travis.
"At least Trip doesn't have to worry about hurting himself lifting weights," said Archer. "He is the only guy on this ship that is immune to the pheromones."
"Yeah. I wonder why?" said Trip.
"You know why you are immune to Orion pheromones," said T'Pol.
"Oh, that's right," joked Trip. Everybody except T'Pol laughed.
"You guys will be tripping and I will be left with a headache," joked Hoshi.
"Yeah, that's true, but don't say that to the Orions," said Trip.
"Don't worry. I won't," said Hoshi.
"Captain. There's Kelby with one of the Orions," said T'Pol, noticing Kelby and D'Nesh entering the mess hall.
Trip and Archer invited Kelby to sit down with them. Kelby and D'Nesh sat down with them.
"Good morning guys," said Kelby.
"Good morning Kelby," said Trip. "How did you sleep?"
"Like a rock. Literally," said Kelby. D'Nesh smiled at him.
"Looks like you have a new friend," said Archer.
"Oh yeah, This is D'Nesh guys," said Kelby.
"Hi everybody," said D'Nesh.
"Nice to meet you D'Nesh," said Archer. "These are my officers; Commander Charles Tucker, our chief engineer who prefers to be called Trip, our first officer T'Pol, our navigator Lieutenant Travis Mayweather, our security officer Lieutenant Malcolm Reed, and our communications officer Ensign Hoshi Sato."
"I remember seeing you all before," said D'Nesh. "So, how are you all doing this morning?"
"I'm doing pretty good," said Travis.
"Travis thinks he may have to work out," said Trip.
"Wow. You must be getting pretty strong," said D'Nesh.
"Yeah, I'm pretty strong," said Travis.
"Good morning everybody," said Phlox as he sat down with everybody. "I see we have Commander Kelby and one of our guests here with us this morning."
"This is our chief medical officer Dr. Phlox," said Archer. "Phlox, this is D'Nesh."
"Nice to meet you D'Nesh," said Phlox.
"Nice to meet you too Dr. Phlox," said D'Nesh.
"I'm a Denobulan if you are curious what species I am," said Phlox.
"Wow. I've heard of Denobulans," said D'Nesh.
"She sure says wow a lot, doesn't she," said Kelby.
"I love that word Kelby," said D'Nesh.
They all ate breakfast and D'Nesh went to her quarters and everyone else went on duty.
Later, Travis was in the gym lifting weights to get the Orion women out of his mind. He was lifting very heavy weights, which were causing him pain. Yet, he continued lifting them.
"Excuse me," said an unfamiliar female voice. Travis turned around and saw a green-skinned Orion woman standing at the doorway.
'Dammit. Just what I need right now,' thought Travis. "What can I help you with?"
"I was watching you lifting weights," she said. "Aren't you being a little too hard on yourself?"
"No. My dad taught me that pain can help keep your mind off of certain things," replied Travis as he continued to lift the weights. A moment later, Travis was forced to drop the weights because of the pain.
"Are you okay?" asked the Orion woman.
"Yes," said Travis as he picked up the weights again.
"Just making sure," she said. "I wouldn't want anything to happen to you."
"Thanks," said Travis. A moment later, the weights hit him on the head and knocked him unconscious.
"Oh my god!" shouted the Orion woman. She walked up to Travis and rolled the weights away from his head.
"Are you okay!" she shouted. "Speak to me."
Just then, Malcolm entered. He was shocked to see Travis unconscious.
"I think he needs to go to sickbay," said Malcolm. "Is he okay?"
"No. I think he knocked himself unconscious from lifting weights that were too heavy for him to handle," said the Orion woman.
"That figures," said Malcolm.
"Is there anything I can do?" she asked.
"Just stay there while I call sickbay," said Malcolm. He rushed to the intercom.
"Malcolm to Dr. Phlox."
"Phlox here,"
"Ensign Mayweather is unconscious in the gym," said Malcolm.
"Get him to sickbay," replied Phlox.
"Okay," said Malcolm as he closed the channel.
"I've got to get Travis to sickbay," said Malcolm.
"I'll come with you," said the Orion woman.
"Okay," said Malcolm. He pulled Malcolm out of the gymnasium and carried him down the corridor to a turbolift. Malcolm managed to hoist Travis into the turbolift so that there would be enough room for the Orion woman to enter.
They went down to E deck, where Malcolm carried Travis to sickbay.
"Just put him on the main bed," said Phlox. Malcolm put Travis down on the center bed.
"What are you doing here?" asked Phlox.
"I was in the gym with him when he knocked himself out by dropping two heavy weights on his head by accident," said the Orion woman.
"I see," said Phlox.
"He was probably trying to keep his mind off the Orion women," said Malcolm.
"I know how it is is like with our pheromones. My name is Nee by the way," said the Orion woman.
"Your pheromones increase the adrenaline levels in males and ultimately makes them susceptible to suggestion. The longer the male is exposed, the more pronounced," said Phlox.
"Wow, how did you know that?" asked Nee.
"I had to restrain commander Kelby after he nearly destroyed the ship and I realized that one of the Orion women used her pheromones to persuade him to do it," said Phlox.
"Some women of our species sure make men do crazy things," said Nee.
"I believe you," said Malcolm.
"I hope he is okay," said Nee as she left sickbay.
"Captains starlog, May 13, 2155. So far, the Orion women don't seem to be affecting our crew with their pheromones. It seems like they are very kind and peaceful people. Although I do have to admit that they are very flirtatious and perhaps seductive. Meanwhile, our navigation officer had accidentally knocked himself unconscious working out in the gymnasium and is still unconscious in sickbay."
Captain Archer headed down to sickbay to check on Travis.
"How is he," said Archer.
"He is still unconscious for the moment," said Phlox. "Oh, there he is now."
Travis had suddenly regained consciousness.
"Are you okay," said Archer.
"Captain," said Travis.
"What happened down in the gymnasium?" asked Archer.
"I was working out," explained Travis. "I was lifting heavy weights to keep my mind off the Orion women. I didn't know that one of them was watching me until she interrupted me when I put the weights down for a moment. We chatted for a brief moment and I went back to lifting the weights. My mind must have drifted for a brief moment and I felt the weights hit me in the head. The next thing I know is that I am here in sickbay seeing Phlox and you standing over me."
"I recommend that you be careful the next time you decide to lift weights," said Phlox.
"Thanks for the advice Phlox," said Travis. "I guess I must find another way to keep the Orion women off my mind."
"With their pheromones, I doubt that would be possible," joked Archer.
"You know what they say. When there's a will there's a way," said Travis letting out a chuckle.
"Yeah," said Archer.
"I think I am fit for duty Captain," said Travis.
"If there is no objections with the captain, I'd say your fit for duty," said Phlox.
"Okay Travis, you can come to the bridge and resume your duties when you are ready to," said Archer.
"Aye sir," said Travis.
Four hours later, Captain Archer headed down to the guest quarters to check on Naras. A moment later, he entered Nara's quarters.
"Hi," said Naras.
"Hello Naras," said Archer. "I'm just checking up on you to see what you were doing."
"I'm doing pretty fine," said Naras.
"I saw D'Nesh hanging out with commander Kelby earlier," said Archer.
"Is that a problem?" asked Naras.
"It isn't a problem as long as he can still perform his duties," said Archer. "I think it is pretty neat to see you ladies interact with the crew."
"Aaww thank you for saying that," said Naras.
"No problem," said Archer.
"It is quite a change getting used to life here," said Naras.
"I know," said Archer. "It must have been rough living with the Orion Syndicate."
"For some of us," said Naras. "Remember, the Orion Syndicate is run by Orion females."
"I almost forgot that," said Archer.
"The men, not the women, are the slaves on our planet," said Naras. "The women being sold as slaves is done to spread the Syndicate's power. Orion females are very hot items on the Orion slave market because most men are unable to resist us. We are commonly named Orion animal women, due to our tendencies, or Orion Slave Girls."
"Does the name Orion Slave Girl come from the fact that you guys are commonly sold as slaves?" asked Archer.
"Yes. You are correct," said Naras.
"So, how did you ladies manage to pilot a starship?" asked Archer.
"Prior to the execution of Navaar, many of us were agents for the Syndicate," said Naras. "We were sold to males of certain alien races to spread the influence of the Orion Syndicate. Some of us acted as agents to capture starships. After Navaar was executed, we feared that the same was going to happen to us. So, fifteen other Orion women and I immediately resigned from the Orion Syndicate. We escaped in one of the ships we had captured in the past that was still operational. We didn't know where to go, but D'Nesh suggested that we try to find you and Enterprise to help us. It took us over three months to find you because we had to constantly dodge the Orion Interceptors."
"That's interesting," said Archer.
"It wasn't fun at all," said Naras.
"I know how that's like," said Archer.
"Anyway. I think your kind of cute," said Naras.
"Thanks," said Archer. "I think we should have dinner in the mess hall together tonight, what do you say?"
"I'd love to," said Naras.
"Let's do it at 1800 hours," said Archer.
"Okay," said Naras.
"I'll see you then," said Archer as he walked towards the exit.
"Bye Archer," said Naras as Archer left.
Well, that's the end of Chapter 3. Chapter 4 should be up in the next day or two.
