It's time for... the sing off!


Sisko looked at the two officers as the others gathered round.

"A sing off, sir?" Odo spluttered. "I don't think-"

Bashir, seeing his chance to sing again, piped up eagerly. "I think it's a good idea!"

Sisko raised his eyebrows and turned to Odo. "You each have to pick two members of the crew to be on your team and sing a duet with you. Odo, you pick first."

Odo scanned the crew thoughtfully and sighed. "Quark."

Quark's jaw dropped. "Me? But you hate me, Odo!"

The changeling shrugged. "You can sing, can't you?"

"Well, I-"

"Then I choose you. Doctor, it's your turn."

Julian smiled smugly. "I choose Miles."

O'Brien rolled his eyes. "How did I see that coming."

The doors opened and Dukat cautiously walked in. "Is it safe for me to come in yet?"

Kira started to march towards him, swearing loudly as Dax and Morn held her back.

"I choose Dukat!" Odo said triumphantly. Dukat looked confused as he tried to dodge the objects Kira was throwing at him.

"You choose me? For what?"

"Sing-off," Sisko replied before turning to Julian. "Your second choice?"

He looked around without much enthusiasm. "Where's Bareil when you need him? I choose Kira."

She smiled evilly at Dukat. "Good. We're gonna pound you into the ground, Dukat."

"We'll see about that Major."

Kira and Dukat stared at each other as the The Good, The Bad and The Ugly theme tune started to play.

"I think Odo should go first," Bashir said hurriedly.

"How very noble of you, Doctor," Odo growled. "Come on, let's get this over with."

They made their way to the computer and Odo quickly read the list.

"Stop there," Quark said, pointing at a song on the screen.

"You can't be serious!" Odo said incredulously. "I am not singing that!"

"I agree with Odo, we'll look ridiculous!" Dukat hissed.

"Odo, relax. You sing that and you'll win over Bashir by miles!"

"No, Miles is singing with Bashir. We can't win by him. Unless he's a bad singer..." Odo stared into space thoughtfully.

"No, I meant... never mind," Quark sighed. "Look, you don't have any better ideas, I know this song - we sing it in the bar occasionally - and I know the dance too-"

"There's a dance?!" Dukat and Odo exclaimed.

"Of course there's a dance!" Quark replied, exasperated. "It's simple. Just watch me and you'll get the hang of it."

"Ok..." Odo said doubtfully. He entered the name of the song into the computer and joined the Ferengi and Cardassian onstage.

Quark began to bob up and down as the music started. "Can I take your order please? Let's eat to the beat!"

Odo joined in reluctantly and tried to watch Quark as he started to dance. Dukat just stood and stared at them.

"A Pizza Hut, a Pizza Hut, Kentucky Fried Chicken and a Pizza Hut, a Pizza Hut, a Pizza Hut, Kentucky Fried Chicken and a Pizza Hut!" Quark chanted happily dancing to the dreaded 'Fast Food Song'. "McDonalds, McDonalds, Kentucky Fried Chicken and a Pizza Hut!"

The crew watched in amazement as Odo raised his hands over his head and began to do the dance along with Quark. Dukat reluctantly joined in, much to Kira's delight, and began to "do the chicken".

"McDonalds, McDonalds, Kentucky Fried Chicken and a Pizza Hut!"


Teehee.

Julian, Kira and Miles are up next to challenge Julian's right to sing...
