Disclaimer: The same as always.
Note: On Thursday Sigma updated Karry Prime and reviews are very scarce for that - I know Sigma's stories are extremely infrequent but me and Sigma put a lot of effort into that chapter and expected some sort of love for it, especially since you all seem to love when I include Prime in this story. I get you guys might have been busy; trust us we get busy too, but even if it's just to say good job, please let us know what you thought. It might seem silly, but reviews do really make us happy. We put a lot of work and love into these chapters and we like knowing what you guys think. So please, once you've read and reviewed this chapter, go over to Karry Prime and read and review that chapter - it's half mine after all and takes very little effort to review it.
To Boldly Go
-Early January-
Tantu and Ray were in the Totem Planning Room at Watchtower with Len, Mick, and Lisa. They hadn't fully decided on the name for the room, but there wasn't a need for anything long-term given that once all the totems were found it would close operations anyway.
"So, do we know where the next one is?" Mick asked, taking a sip of his beer after he asked.
"What are you three doing here?" Ray countered – they had messaged people saying they had an idea where to go next for the totem, and it had been these three who showed up.
"The guy got to our job before us," Len stated, taking a beer himself. "This is personal now. We'll help you get all of these totems."
"Oh yeah the totem hunt. I heard about this," a voice spoke, making everyone look to the door. A woman with red hair in a blue and orange outfit stood at the door. She had a mask in her hand as she looked on. "Rose Wilson, or Ravager if you like." The question was not asked but she had said it like it was.
"Oh yeah your Liam new side…" Ray started.
"You finish that sentence with any other word but partner and I will show you how good I am," Rose said holding out a finger at him.
"Partner," Ray finished his sentence finally, to a giggle from Lisa. "Nice to finally meet you. I am the Atom. This is Vixen. And here we have Citizen Cold, Heatwave, and Golden Glider." Len had informed them he liked the name Citizen Cold over their Snart's Captain Cold, so they were just going with it.
"I thought this place was Justice League only," Lisa spoke, making Tantu and Ray look at each other.
"Ray and I are literally the only members of the Justice League here," Tantu said looking around the room. They were the only two in the League in this room.
"Oh really?" The familiar voice of Sara said, now appearing in the doorway. She was in her White Canary outfit and yawning. The two babies were keeping her and Alex up at night and Sara had a feeling Karen had been sneaking to the penthouse again. "So, what's going on?"
"I think I found mention to the Earth Totem," Ray said happily. Between running STAR Gotham and getting the new robotic servants ready he had been making sure he and Gideon kept researching for Totems in the background. He even let Red Tornado be the main hero of Gotham so he could focus on the Totems instead – the AI was evolving nicely. "According to Gideon, the last known person to have possession of the Earth Totem was Captain Blackbeard."
"The pirate?" Sara asked with a raised eyebrow.
"The very same," Rae said with a goofy smile as he brought up a picture of the pirate in various media and drawings. "He buried it with his treasure, which was never found…"
"So how do we get it?" Tantu cut Ray off. "Go back in time. We could call Kara and Barry's time travelling friend."
"That would be awesome," Mick said his eyes lightning up. "Meet Blackbeard… have some beers with pirates. I am down for it. Where's that British guy with the trench coat?"
"If you would let the man finish his sentence you would know we do not need to do the impossible and time travel," Rose said as all eyes turned to her.
"Time travel not impossible," Ray spoke cautiously.
"You're about to tell her about a man in a ship," Len stated, curious himself.
"Rip Hunter," Ray spoke, having been on the ship with him on the mission as well as Mick. "The Time Masters and Barry can also time travel. Well, all speedsters can. But like Rose said, we do not need to time travel. Blackbeard treasure has remained buried until today. Archaeologist C.C Batson and his wife Marilyn have been said to have found the treasure buried on Grace Island in the Bahamas. The final unburial is being done today. We can get over there now."
"Bahamas? I'm in," Rose said with a nod.
"I could use a mission. Let me text Alex," Sara said.
"Not a bad idea to text the wife," Ray said taking out his phone at the same time.
-Karry Universe-
Cisco was in meta home working on the computer.
"Thank you so much," Eliza said putting a plate of cookies and milk in front of Cisco. He had been asked to upgrade the internet in meta home and had been there most of the morning putting in new devices. "With all the kids and school and everyone needing internet it's been…"
"Hey, I got it," Cisco said, taking a cookie. "And these are enough thanks." Cisco smiled as he continued looking at the screen. "I've just got to wait for this to finish loading."
"Cisco?" Zor appeared, coming in with an alien female child by his side. She had blue lines on her face and a pointed noise and Cisco could not say he was familiar with the species at all. "This is Zandia. She's living here waiting for diplomats from her planet to pick her up." Cisco didn't ask how Zendia ended up on their planet and here. No more information was offered either. "While she is here she is interested in Earth sci fi. Wanting to see what humans make of aliens. I told her you would be the one to ask."
"Try Star Trek Voyager. Awesome female captain," Cisco said without a hesitation. "It becomes the best after season 4, when Seven of Nine comes in." Cisco smiled at that and the alien thanked him, running off.
However, he did not see another meta human boy listening in.
Being left alone now, it a while until he heard his name being called from another room.
Putting his laptop down on the table and taking another cookie, he walked into the room – the den where the children did their homework or read. There was a lone laptop on a desk and no one else was around. The laptop was on and Cisco looked at it, noticing it was on an episode of Star Trek Voyager. Seven of Nine was in her regeneration unit in cargo bay two as the episode ended.
"Huh, must have taken my advice," Cisco stated, looking around for the alien girl now, wondering where she could have gone.
That was when a light shot out of the screen, engulfing Cisco. He couldn't move as he caught a glimpse of a meta human child before the light overwhelmed him. A second later he was in the dark, confused. Looking around he noticed he seemed to be in the same cargo bay two from the show. He dropped the cookie he was holding in shock.
Cisco put his hand on the nearby computer, and it reacted, lighting up to his touch.
"Whoa…!" Cisco mumbled as he heard a noise and turned to see Seven of Nine stepping out of her alcove.
"I do not recognize you. State your purpose and designation," Seven of Nine said formally, and Cisco opened his mouth in shock.
"Um…" he finally mumbled. "What?"
"State designation," Seven said more forceful, moving closer.
"Urm, Cisco Ramon," Cisco said not sure what else to say.
"There is no one on this ship with that designation," Seven said, pushing her combadge. "Seven of Nine to Tuvok. Intruder alert."
"Wait, I don't know how I got here. Well, I do there was a light and a meta human child…" Cisco tried, remembering the boy but not the details.
"I do not know what a meta human is, stay where you are," before she could finish, the familiar face of Tuvok, the Vulcan came into the room, holding out a phaser at Cisco. Cisco held up his hand.
"Whoa, hey, I don't mean anyone any harm," he said, not sure what else to do but surrender.
-Karry Universe-
Sara, Ray, Tantu, Mick, Lisa, Len, and Rose were walking towards the site where the unburying was happening. They were in their normal everyday clothes, Sara in the lead – the natural leader when it came to this mission.
"Okay, we wait and see where they take everything once its unburied. Then we can figure out how to… you know," Sara said looking around. There was a large crowd around, all seeming excited. Two people, the archeologists seemed to be up front with the mayor.
"Remember: make the plan, execute the plan, the plan falls off the rail, throw away the plan," Len said counting off the steps on his fingers and then making a movement with his hand that looked like he was throwing something.
"We get it," Tantu rolled her eyes, already annoyed by this saying.
"Something is about to happen," Rose said, looking ahead.
"Well there seems to be… is that a body?" A voice up front was saying.
Sara and the others didn't wait as they pushed through the crowd, coming to the front just as vines seemed to shoot from the ground, grabbing the commentator as out of the hole rose what seemed to be a woman, but she looked horrible. Like The Walking Dead. Around her neck was a chunky chain, and at the end of that chain was a large emerald, which seemed to be glowing.
"That's the Earth Totem!" Tantu said as the earth around them started to move, more vines shooting out and attacking people as they ran for cover. "It must have preserved her body, or most of it, to prevent –"
"We get it!" Rose shouted, as people ran away, screaming
"Plans falls off the rails," Lisa stated.
"Throw away the plan! Throw away the plan!" Len said.
"Shut up!" Tantu cried, moving forward as she summoned the spirit of a gorilla to attack, but a vine shot out underneath her, throwing her aside. Sara was already running looking for a place to change, mumbling under her breath about nerds needing to make an easy way for them to get in and out of their outfits.
"I think we skipped a couple of steps," Ray said realizing they had never actually planned or executed any plan.
"Haircut!" Mick yelled out at Ray.
"Oh right," Ray said, taking his tiny suit out of a pocket, growing it and jumping into it in one movement he had long since perfected. The Atom was in the air, watching over the walking corpse which seemed to be moving without a purpose. Most of the people had run away now. "We got a problem, Vixen's tied up and it looks like she's going to kill someone – the Pirate Queen corpse, that is."
"Any idea what this thing is?" Sara asked, not questioning Ray's naming of things. She was in White Canary outfit now, bo staff out and using the canary cry Cisco had made on the plants, but she was having little effect. Even Len, Lisa, and Mick with their special guns were having a little effect on the power. Rose was running towards the Pirate Queen now as Ray managed to fire at the vines entrapping Tantu, freeing her.
"My guess is Blackbeard put the Totem on his girlfriend, which enhanced her worst qualities making her a monster," Tantu explained, joining Rose now.
"And then shot her," Ray said. "I can see the gunshot wound in her head. Must have buried her."
"And there she stayed until she was unburied, and the Totem brought her back to life, or at least reanimated her as she's now part of the Earth," Tantu finished. "I need to get close to her."
"We'll help," Sara said as Ray started shooting plants.
-Karry Universe-
Cisco let Tuvok bring him by phaser point to sickbay, where the Doctor started running scans on him as Tuvok waited. Cisco, the entire time, was waiting for himself to wake up though. This had to be some weird dream.
The doors then opened and there appeared Captain Janeway herself. Cisco stood up at that, taking in the Captain and realizing how much she looked like Annie Grant – a person who had only recently come to his attention due to Kara and Barry's mission to Titania.
"So, welcome abroad," Captain Janeway said, frowning at Cisco. "How did you get on my ship?"
"Trust me, I wish I knew," Cisco whispered.
"Doctor?" Captain Janeway asked raising an eyebrow to the holographic physician. "What is he?"
"Human," the Doctor said. "To an extent."
"Elaborate," Captain Janeway asked as Cisco allowed them to debate, still wondering what was happening to himself.
"His DNA structure is human, but it's mutated in the most unusual way," the Doctor explained, bringing up the DNA on screen. "I've never seen anything like this before. It's like something literally reached into and changed his DNA."
"Stupid Accord," Cisco mumbled, realizing he said it aloud when everyone turned to him.
"Accord?" Captain Janeway asked.
"It's a… an annoying little imp," Cisco said, deciding not go too forward with his explanation.
"Look there's a perfectly reasonable explanation here and that explanation is… that… I am from an alternate universe." Cisco almost couldn't believe it as he said it, but now he had to run with it. "Yes, of course I am. I'm from a parallel realty, and on my world a particle accelerator exploded causing Dark Matter to spread and mutate the DNA of humans giving us abilities. My twin, we call him Vibe, has the ability to see into and create portals to other worlds, but he's not that good with his abilities. We're serving on the same ship that was stranded in the Delta Quadrant, the USS Karry." He really was running with it, hoping he was convincing enough. "He accidentally sent me here and I am sure my Captain, Captain Kara Zor-El and her first officer, Commander Barry Allen, are trying their hardest to get me back."
Cisco had not wanted to use the same last name for Kara and Barry and for some reason her Kryptonian last name came out before Danvers did, despite having just been in Eliza's meta home.
"Zor-El?" Captain Janeway asked, picking up on the unusual last name.
"She's Kryptonian," Cisco said but nearly hit himself in the head. When aliens were discovered to be real, there had been a debate if TV shows like Star Trek would include real alien species. In the end Star Trek decided to stay fictional. To be fair, he was on a show that had stopped airing some 15 years ago, and Kryptonians had never been a thing on it, so he couldn't affect the show by naming them… could he?
"You've probably never heard of the species." He now tried. "We found out on most alternate worlds their planet exploded, leaving the race practically extinct."
Captain Janeway bit her lip at this explanation, before backing up and turned to Tuvok.
"Do you buy any of this?" Captain Janeway asked, quietly but enough so Cisco could still just about hear her.
"Well, like most stories about alternate realities, while not logical also not impossible," Tuvok said in traditional Vulcan riddle.
"If I may," the Doctor spoke up at this. "There is Dark Matter in his body, which would align with an explosion as he described it." Cisco almost smiled at this – even though he got his powers from Accord, he was still in Central during the explosion. He still had Dark Matter in his DNA which backed up his fake story.
"Okay, you said this explosion gave you powers? The reason your DNA is mutated," Captain Janeway said. "Let me see."
Cisco gave a smirk as he moved backwards, right through the bed. The Doctor immediately took out his scanner to scan him as he did it.
"How fascinating!" the Doctor said, suddenly excited. "His body's particles went into phase, making him able to step through the bed. You can put that phaser down. I doubt it would work."
"I would like to test that theory," Tuvok pointed his phaser directly at Cisco and pushed the button. The phaser fire going right through Cisco.
"Hey!" Cisco complained, stepping out of the bed and looking at his chest to the spot he had been fired at. He was used to it after the Darksied battle, but it was still annoying.
"Relax, it was only set to stun," Tuvok stated, put the phaser down though. "Your powers are, indeed, fascinating."
Captain Janeway came up and held out her hand. Cisco took it. "You feel solid enough," she commented.
"I am when I want to be," Cisco said, "but right now, all I want to do is go home," he looked the Captain right in the eyes as he said it.
"Okay," Captain Janeway said with a nod, Cisco knowing that line would get to Janeway. Their mission to get out of the Delta Quadrant and return to Earth. "Bring Mr… Ramon was it?" Cisco gave a nod. "Bring him to B'Elanna and Harry. Tell them everything you know – and get Seven on it as well. She might have some Borg knowledge that can help."
Cisco let out a breath. He got the trust he needed here, but now he needed to get home somehow. And he had no idea how.
-Karry Universe-
As Ray, Sara, Rose, Mick, Len, and Lisa tried to lock down the perimeter, Tantu made her way back to the Pirate Queen. As a fellow Totem barer, she might get through to the other woman.
"Stop!" She yelled, running up and the Pirate Queen stopped and turned to her, her white eyes not seeing her. Tantu was almost surprised, but then she knew why: The Totem on her neck was connecting this pirate to Tantu, to her Totem. A living Totem barer. "That Totem around your neck must feel like a leash," Tantu stated.
Tantu held out her hand. "I know what it feels like, to have the weight of this power on you. And that power was not meant for you… It's been keeping you alive, sort of. Buried under that ground for so long, driving you crazy. A power you were not meant to have. Just give it over to me, let it go and let yourself go. Be at peace in the afterlife, where you belong."
As the Pirate Queen was distracted, Lisa managed to get behind her and yanked the Totem from her neck. The Pirate Queen turned in confusion, but Lisa already had the Totem – the power it had over the corpse was gone, and the woman collapsed, her soul released from this world and the body that it had been trapped in.
"Nice going, sis," Len said as the attacking plants that had distracted the rest of the team stopped. They regrouped at this. "I got one."
"Not so fast!" A female voice called, and the same masked female who had taken the water Totem from their grasp before Christmas showed up, with her was the same masked male. The two of them having the Totems they stole around their necks.
"Hand them over. Both Totems you have," the woman commented.
Tantu took a step forward. "Just like that Totem did not belong to her, those two do not belong to you. They're already twisting you, bringing out the worst in you. Your greed… Your anger…. It made you a murderer. You need to take them off so their real owners can be found."
The two didn't answer though, and just summoned their powers – fire and water coming from them, both heading right at Tantu. Tantu summoned a spirit of an eagle and flew high to avoid the attack.
"It's two against one," Ray said with a head shake as Tantu landed behind the couple, who turned to face her. "She can't take them."
"We can get behind them. Do a sneak attack," Sara said.
"She'll be overpowered before we do that," Rose said, using her own power of premonition, all the while Tantu alone fought the couple. "Oh, no," Rose looked at Lisa's hand, to the Earth Totem. "We have another Totem."
"It's not calling to any of us," Ray stated.
"But you don't have to be chosen to use a Totem." Rose pointed out, catching on quick from what she had learned so far.
"As long as you are a righteous warrior, there's no harm," Ray added in getting into this plan, landing next to Rose, Lisa, Len and Mick.
Before Ray could take the Totem though, Rose took it and put it on her neck. Stepping forward she joined Tantu and took a deep breath, wondering how it worked but again used her own learning of how the Pirate Queen had used the plant life. The power of the Earth Totem joining the power of the Spirit, evening out the odds.
"Now, steal those Totems!" Sara told the three thieves, now the Fire and Water Totem users were distracted.
"You heard the boss-lady," Mick said, taking his flame thrower out.
The three made sure to be a distance from the Totems powers but before they could get to the two Totem thieves the power of the totems reacted, exploding and knocking all four Totem users back. Ray was in the air.
"What happened?" Sara called.
"The thieves are running for it!" Ray said. The couple with the Water and Fire Totems had gotten up after the explosion, themselves regrouping as they must have figured going after Spirit and Earth so far wasn't worth it.
Sara had gone to make sure Tantu and Rose were fine, but both waved her off.
Mick, Lisa, and Len running after the two. "You're not going to get them," Rose said, noticing the two had got a head-start, but also noticing the helicopter.
"I'm on them," Ray said, flying after it as the Fire Totem user shot fire out at him; Ray tried to use his weapon to deflect but it didn't work, and he had to shrink to dodge.
"Totem must defeat Totem!" Tantu said. She could summon the Spirit of an eagle again and fly after them, but it would be two against one again. Her eyes went to the green Totem still around Rose's neck. "We got what we came for. Let them go for now."
"You heard her," Sara said. "Back off. Atom."
Ray back away and they watched as the helicopter disappear into the sky, thinking now.
"What about the dead pirate?" Mick asked, kicking the body on the floor. Even though it was hundreds of years old, the power of the Totem had kept it whole and it did not crumble to touch.
"Dead men tell no tales." Sara muttered. "Or dead women, I suppose…" That earned a chuckled from Ray. "Come on, let's go home."
-Karry Universe-
If Cisco knew what was going on this would be the dream for him, and part of him was excited – The Warp core, the replicators, the newly-established Astrometics Labs. The ship he knew so well from re-watching the show so many times – and the people he knew well! Harry and B'Elanna trying to come up with an answer to get him home, Seven of Nine talking about Borg shared memories, Harry going off on a tangent about what he knew.
Cisco helped, saying what he knew of the real multiverse to 'help', but he doubted he could really help them.
"You're on a ship, right?" B'Elanna said after a pause. "What's your position?"
"I'm an engineer," it was the first thing to come to his mind. "Head engineer."
Before more could be said, the ship rocked violently.
"Captain to all crew – we're under attack. Battle stations," Captain Janeway's voice was heard loud. It was all so surreal.
"We'll have to get back to this later," Harry said to Cisco, moving off with Seven following him. With them now in engineering, B'Elanna only had to move to the warp core and started shouted orders.
"Hey, think you can lend a hand?" B'Elanna asked Cisco.
"Sure," Cisco said, going to a panel. He had watched this show a hundred times but he was not sure what to push or when. The shipped continued to shake though as Cisco looked at the readings. "B'Elanna, duck!" Cisco knew there was a power build up by B'Elanna and ran right to her, grabbing her as it exploded and using his power so the blast went right though both of them.
"Thanks!" B'Elanna said, seeming unsure what else to say.
"Crew, we're being boarded," Captain Janeway's voice was now heard.
"Got a phaser?" Cisco asked, and B'Elanna nodded, going to a panel and grabbing two phasers, handing one to Cisco. "It's on stun, right?"
"Yes," B'Elanna said.
"Going," Cisco said and before anyone could speak, he ran out. He didn't need to be in engineering. He knew nothing there. But maybe he could help.
He found Tuvok and a couple other security guards shooting at the intruders. They were clearly alien, but Cisco had to pause. He had never seen these aliens before on any of the Star Trek shows. They were completely new. Their heads were brown, but they looked menacing. They were big and seemed to be wearing some type of body armor.
"I got an idea," Cisco said, leaning down besides Tuvok. "Trust me."
"Trust is irrelevant," Tuvok said. "If your idea is logical, I will comply."
"We use my power to get behind them," Cisco said and Tuvok gave him a look for a moment.
"It is the only plan we have," Tuvok said, and Cisco took his hand and walked him through the wall. Cisco used the room beyond the wall to figure out where the new species were before stepping out behind the invading aliens. He and Tuvok both held their phasers and stunned the aliens from behind.
"That power of yours is useful," Tuvok nodded, impressed.
That was when the ship stopped shaking. "All hands stand down," Captain Janeway's voice was heard. "Seems we showed enough strength up here. Our hails have been answered." Cisco sighed relieved. This battle seemed to be over although now he realized why most of the action happened on the Bridge – he only had a fraction of the picture down here with Tuvok.
-Karry Universe-
Back at Watchtower now, Rose took the Earth Totem off her neck.
"This does not belong to me," Rose said, holding it in her hands. Tantu held out her hands, expecting Rose to hand it over to her but Rose paused. "It does not belong to you either," Tantu took a step back unsure by this reaction. "The Totem around your neck is yours. This one is not meant for you."
"Well Tantu is the closest to an owner," Sara said expectedly, looking confused now between Tantu and Rose.
"No, it has an owner out there. It will choose when ready," Rose said, keeping a grip on it. "There are many people who it could belong to, but its path, its destiny, is taking it in a certain direction. Leading it to a certain person."
"You can see who it will choose?" Tantu asked. She was aware of Rose's own power but didn't realize it could be helpful toward finding the True Bearers of the unclaimed Totems.
"Yes. Blonde, female. She's in the military, I think…. Yes, a military person," Rose said. "She will be like the Earth. She will relate to this Totem and the Totem will choose her. But I do not know her name, only that she's the most likely to get it."
"Well, it seems your power can come in handy," Ray said with a smile. "But until we find her, I have made special boxes for each Totem. To hold their power." Ray took out a box with a glass top and Rose put the Totem in it. Ray shut it.
"Hey Red," Mick growled, and Rose turned to him. "Neat trick there. Now tell me the lotto numbers."
Rose gave a smirk and then a head shake before going to the zap tunnel to head back home.
"Well, when you get the next lead let me know," Len said. "I got to start getting my business off the ground. Lisa, are you coming?"
"In case you've forgotten, I have a husband to go home to," Lisa said, but followed Len to the zap tunnel along with Mick, leaving them.
"This was fun, but I got two newborns at home," Sara said, "and a wife complaining that I shouldn't have left," she had noticed a few missed calls and texts on her phone since.
"Um… Sara?" Ray said, suddenly lost for words as she frowned at him. "I never said… Well I'm sorry. For your…"
"Don't," Sara waved her hand and gave a look, telling not to mention it, before leaving herself.
"Any clues on the next Totem?" Tantu asked Ray now, wanting to get on with the hunt.
"Not tonight Tantu," Ray said. "I have a job to get to – and a wife and son to get home to afterward. And you have…"
"What?" Tantu asked. "I have what? My grandmother is dead, my friends are busy and somehow her murderers are always two steps ahead of us. Always there."
"This will take time," Ray said. "And you have a boyfriend," Ray pointed out, just as Tantu's phone binged – Tantu knew it was Buddy. She was still living with him as her house was being repaired – slowly.
"Take a rest," Ray suggested, and Tantu knew Ray was right as he left Watchtower too.
She took one look at the Earth Totem. It was safe here on the moon. No one was getting to it. She then took out her cellphone, telling Buddy she would be back soon as she left the room.
-Karry Universe-
Cisco sat in the Mess Hall with every major characters of the Star Trek Voyager show – Captain Janeway, the Doctor, B'Lanna, Harry, Seven and Tuvok where here, along with Tom Paris, Chekotay, Neelix and even Samantha and Naomi Wildman, along with some very familiar background faces.
Cisco had to chuckle, wondering who controlled the ship when all these characters were together having a party.
Regarding the attack earlier, Captain Janeway had negotiated peace with the species, as it seemed Voyager had entered a war zone and they had been mistaken for an enemy vessel. They had been allowed to leave – and Captain Janeway had commanded them do so as fast as possible. Now they were hosting the party for moral support, and a thank you to Cisco for saving both B'Lanna and Tuvok's life.
"To our friend from another universe!" Tom Paris said, holding up a cup. "Walking through walls… Wish I could have seen that."
"You know we could make good work with you," Harry said with a smile. "Want to stick around for a bit?"
"Well, I still don't quite know how I'm getting home…" Cisco pointed out.
"There are several other scans I would like to run," Seven pointed out at this. "I believe that if we alter course to approximately fifty parsecs, there is a localized wormhole which should…"
"We're not talking business right now," Captain Janeway held up a hand to Seven, who frowned.
"This was merely a suggestion to getting Mr. Ramon back to his universe," Seven seemed a little put off by the Captain's interruption.
"But not until we have finished eating," Neelix said pleasantly, putting a big plate of… something down on the table. His cooking always looked a little unusual on screen – it smelt it too now Cisco was in the mess hall with the rest of them.
"After we're done here, we'll return to getting you home," B'Elanna said, nodding to Seven now.
Suddenly the room glowed white, which was familiar.
"Captain, are we under attack again?" Harry spoke at this; he and several crew members were looking nervously around.
"Actually, I think that's my ride," Cisco said, feeling relieved as the light got brighter. "It's been an honor, Captain Janeway." Cisco saluted the Captain as the light got too bright to see anything again.
…
The bright light faded quickly, and Cisco blinked his eyes, recognizing the familiar rec room he had been in earlier in the meta home. He shook himself as he turned to see the closing credits on the Star Trek Voyager going over the familiar music. He turned, and that was when he saw the leg of someone running from the room.
Someone had been in here until he got out.
"Hey!" Cisco said, not knowing who it was as he came running out, following the direction the kid had gone.
Cisco came to a sudden stop.
"There you are!" Barry was standing there, looking bemused and a little annoyed. "How long does it take to do upgrades? You have been gone the entire day! I had to run to STAR Gaming. You could have at least called..."
"Barry, I was… I was on Voyager," Cisco said, hoping Barry would understand as his boss crossed his arms. "I went into that room and the computer showed Seven, and then suddenly I was in cargo bay two. Then they brought me to sick bay and I met Janeway – who looks like Annie Grant – then the ship got attacked and…"
"Have you been drinking?" Barry asked raising an eyebrow, cutting Cisco off.
"No!" Cisco said. "Eliza? Zor...?" Cisco moved away from Barry, looking into rooms. "Someone who works here...?" Eliza came out of the kitchen. "Which one of these kids has a power to send me into a TV show?"
"Erm. None of them," Eliza said, obviously confused by this. "Is that even possible?"
"Yes! Because one of them did it. We need to figure out who," Cisco turned to Barry as he said it. "You don't believe me, do you?"
"I think you fell asleep and had a weird dream," Barry said, shaking his head. "Maybe you should go home to Lisa."
Cisco opened his mouth to protest but closed it. He had no proof he was on Voyager – he had taken nothing from the ship, and now wish he'd kept hold of the phaser gun. Honesty though, if he had not happened to him, he wouldn't believe it either. He would need to figure this out later. Maybe run a scan on his brain and body for significant and unusual readings.
"Fine," Cisco said making a face as he grabbed his keys and headed for his waiting car.
"Bye Eliza, Zor. Come by soon. The girls need their Nana and Grandpa," Barry said to the couple with a smile, before running out, heading home himself.
Post Chapter Note: Well, I know there was no Karry in this chapter – or really no Kara and very little Barry. It's one of those chapters that focuses on other characters, especially Cisco, Rose and Tantu; and since it was half a rewrite Legends episode, I wanted as many legends there as possible. As for Cisco's adventure… well I have some more fun plans there with characters going into TV Shows. Sorry there wasn't much on the Voyager side though, but it was fun. And please remember to review Karry Prime.
Next Time on Karry Universe:-
The Birthday Present: It's Barry's birthday and Romana and Star want to get their dad a nice present. Amelia recruits Joe to help them find something perfect.
Karry Master OUT!
