Lol, ok here we go again....


The holosuite doors whooshed open and the music ground to a halt. Everybody slowly turned round, expecting to see another dead person.

"No..." Kira breathed. "It can't be..."

Picard stepped forward. "Hand it over."

Odo held onto his microphone protectively. "No!"

Picard tried to snatch it off him. "Give it to me!"

"No!"

"Give me it!"

"You can't have it, it's mine!"

Riker stepped forward and tapped Picard on the shoulder. "Sir, we do have another microphone here..."

Picard straightened his jacket and snatched the microphone from his first officer. "Let's do this thing!"

Dax clutched at Sisko as the Enterprise crew made their way up to the stage. "Benjamin, you have to stop them!"

"I-I can't," Sisko stuttered. "I'm sorry..."

"Lead it, girls!" Picard ordered. Crusher and Troi stepped forward and clapped their hands above their heads.

Boom boom clap!

Boom boom clap!

Boom boom clap!

Boom boom clap!

Picard turned round to face the audience. "Buddy you're a boy make a big noise, you're gonna be a big man some day!"

"You got mud on yo' face!" Riker yelled.

"You big disgrace!" Geordi chanted. "Kickin' your can all over the place!"

"Singin'!"

"We will we will rock you!" they all sang. "We will we will rock you!"

Data turned to the audience. "Buddy you're a young man hard man, shoutin' in the street gonna take on the world some day!"

"You got blood on yo' face!" chimed in Crusher. "You big disgrace!"

"Wavin' your banner all over the place!"

"We will we will rock you!" they all sang. "Singin'! We will we will rock you!"

Troi pointed out at the audience. "Buddy you're an... oldmanpoorman, pleadin' with your eyes gonna make you some... peacesomeday!"

Outraged that she hadn't quite managed to fit all the words in right (after all those weeks of practice!), Picard kicked her off the stage and she landed with a squeal face first in the crowd. He straightened his jacket.

"You got mud on yo' face!" he yelled.

"You big disgrace!" Crusher wailed.

"Somebody better put you back into your place!"

"We will we will rock you!" they all sang. "Singin'!We will we will rock you! Everybody! We will we will rock you! We will we will rock you!"

Picard started with his air guitar routine as the song closed. Jumping off the stage, he squared up to Sisko.

"Let's see you beat that, baldy!" Picard jeered.

There was a sudden silence as everybody tried to work out how the heck that worked?

Sisko raised his eyebrows. "Well, slaphead-"

Gasps from the Enterprise crew cut him off.

"Oh no you didn't!" Riker cried.

"As I was saying!" Sisko yelled. "We would be more than happy to take you on! But our doctor here has a nervous disposition and we wouldn't like to do anything to make him worse."

Troi smiled sympathetically at a confused looking Julian. "Would you like to talk about it?"

"Uh, no, I don't think so..."

"Well I want to talk about how you messed up your line when we've been practising for three weeks straight!" Picard demanded.

A man's voice came over the com. "Jean-Luc, please return to the Enterprise. It's really boring up here."

"Q?!"

"There's nobody else here, you're all doing that stupid karaoke, which I was not invited to, I might add!"

Sighing, Picard replied. "On my way."

He turned to Sisko and made the 'I'm watching you' signal (pointing two fingers to his own eyes then pointing at Sisko). "I will be back. Let's ride!"

The crew of the Enterprise left without another word. Bashir turned to Sisko.

"Is it my turn NOW?"
