Chapter 12: Disater
Author's Note: I'm finally back. Here's another chapter. Hope you like it. I do not own Star Trek or any of the characters and never will. Please read and review.
Picard walked down to Ten Forward to ask Guinan if she wanted to see Star Trek. He saw her standing there ready to take orders.
"Hello, captain. Can I get you something?" Guinan asked politely.
"Actually, I was here to ask you if you wanted to watch Star Trek with us." Picard said.
"No, thank you, captain. I've already seen all the episodes. Thanks for asking but I'm also busy here."
"Well the invitation is always open, if you change your mind."
Picard returned to his seat in Q's movie theater.
"She said no." Picard simply said.
"That's fine. We can watch it without her." Q replied.
The episode began with the captain's log saying they were on a needed break. Then in Ten Forward, O'Brian and Keiko were arguing over which name they were going to pick if it was a boy.
"To bad it was a girl." Q commented offscreen.
The episode continued with Dr. Crusher trying to get Geordi to sing a bit for a part in a play. Q laughed and laughed at Geordi's singing and laughed even more at his embarrassment. Worf got up and personally struck Q and Geordi smiled and mouthed "Thank you'.
The episode continued with Picard having to give some little kids a tour. O'Brian makes a comment on who he doesn't know to be more sorry for the captain or the kids. Offscreen, Q snaps his fingers for a drink just to sip and spit out while he was laughing.
"Q!" Picard exclaimed irritated. Q made a sly smile.
The episode continued with Picard in the elevator with the children who won the science fair.
Q smiled even wider, "Picard with children. How precious."
"Q just stop it."
The episode continued with the turbolift falling. The whole ship shook. On the bridge, they figured that they ran into a quantum filament. They struck another one and both the officer in charge of the bridge and the helmsman were violently tossed by the con exploding. Then the introduction played. The next scene was of Troi trying to reach anyone that was not on the bridge to no avail. Then they realized Lieutenant Monroe was dead. The scene then cut to the turbolift with Picard and the kids. He tries to convince them that nobody is dead and that they are not going to die. He then yells at them to stop crying making it all worse.
"Picard, you would make the worst babysitter who ever existed. Even I know that children require patience and here's you showing none of it." Q commented.
"Just watch the rest then and see how good I can be with children Q." Picard replied confidently.
The episode continued with the bridge crew trying to get help from other ships. Ro is found prying the turbolift doors open. Together they try to get systems back up and find that there is still life abroad the ship. The bridge crew realizes that Troi is in command.
"Troi as a captain? Who would have thought?" Q said mockingly.
"She makes a fine captain once you give her a chance." Riker replied.
"I doubt it." Q murmured and received a not so pleasant look from Riker.
The episode continued with Data and Riker deciding to take a trip to engineering. Worf is left in charge of Ten Forward. Kieko is shown mostly okay. The scene then cut to Crusher and Geordi trying to get our of the cargo bay. A plasma fire breaks out and Geordi worries that the stuff in the containers might explode. Picard makes the kids part of his crew with Melissa being number one.
"Oh now I see how great you can do with kids." Q said, "Perhaps you won't make such a terrible babysitter."
"Better than you." Picard said smugly. Q glared.
The episode continued with Riker and Data escaping a coolent leak. Then Geordi and Crusher realizing that the radiation is rising and that they have to move the containers to prevent an explosion. Then on the bridge they realize they don't have much time left till a explosion. Meanwhile Data suggests that they take off his head.
Q makes an intrigued look and smiles. Riker cringes slightly. Q gives him a look and Riker merely shakes his head speechless.
The episode continued with Data stepping into the electrical current. He is relatively unharmed as his positronic brain remains functioning. Meanwhile, Picard and the children plan on escaping the turbolift. Picard insists on staying behind, but the children wouldn't hear of it.
"Aww, they care about you." Q says smirking.
"Shut up, Q." Picard said sternly and Q rolled his eyes and obeyed.
The episode went on with Keiko realizing the baby is coming. Worf is not pleased. Meanwhile, Troi agrees with Cheif O"Brian to not separate the ship. Picard and the kids manage to escape the turbolift. Picard suggests a climbing song and the kids sing while they climb.
"Good job, Picard." Q praised.
"Thank you, Q." Picard replied.
The episode continued with Worf try to deliver Keiko's baby. Q laughed at Worf's ignorance. Worf sent a death glare to Q. Meanwhile, Geordi and Crusher try to get the containers out by opening up the cargo bay. They succeed. Meanwhile, Worf delivers Keiko's baby.
Q smiles, "That is cute."
Worf hits Q in the arm.
"Oww."
The episode continued with the kids giving Picard a hand made plague. Q smiles widely as Melissa and Riker both react to being called Number One. Then the episode ended. Q then prepares for next episode.
Author's Note: I'm thinking of doing "Time's Arrow" next. You may review to tell me what episode you want to see but don't forget to tell me if you liked this chapter. Please no more flames. I work hours to put this together. So please no flames.
