Twisted Line-By-Line

[sekundant]

TORRES: What are you doing?

 

[Orac]

Chakotay: I'm trying to contact my spirit guide.

 

[May 20]

TORRES: Why?

 

[LeadHead]

Chakotay: Who knows what's going to happen when that ring hits us? We might be in for another long journey.

 

[May 20]

TORRES: I guess I could use a little spiritual guidance myself right now. Mind if I join you?

 

[LeadHead]

Chakotay: I thought you’d never ask.

Torres sits down, she and Chakotay holds hands. The distortion ring reaches them. Paris puts his hand on Kim’s shoulder as they watch Chakotay and B’Elanna become distorted, the wave reaches Paris and Kim next. Tuvok place his hand near Janeway as the wave reaches Kes & The Doctor. Seconds later, the distortion reaches Tuvok & Janeway.

They all die. The end.

Okay, fine. That’s not what happened.

Suddenly, everything is back to normal, the crew and holodeck characters look around, surprised and relieved. Janeway starts to wake up.

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

(^ LOL, what a way to go! ...In an alternate universe.)

EMH: Captain?

 

[Oddish]

That was naughty, IM...

JANEWAY: I'm all right.

 

[sekundant]

EMH: You were delirious.

 

[Oddish]

JANEWAY: "It was some sort of message."

 

[Athena28]

CHAKOTAY: What was?

 

[Hawku]

JANEWAY: The spatial distortion. It was trying to communicate with us.

 

[May 20]

[Bridge]

JANEWAY: I want a full systems report. And Mister Kim, Mister Tuvok, I want every iota of information that was recorded regarding that phenomenon.

 

[sekundant]

PARIS: The distortion ring's directly ahead, Captain. It's moving away from us at two thousand kph.

 

[Oddish]

CHAKOTAY: "We've got a full crew complement, Captain. No injuries reported."

 

[Kertrats47]

TORRES: No damage to the hull or ship systems.

 

[sekundant]

JANEWAY: Incredible.

 

[May 20]

TORRES: You're not going to believe this, Captain, but twenty million gigaquads of new information have been input into the ship's computer.

 

[Oddish]

JANEWAY: "Where did it come from?"

 

[LeadHead]

Torres: My guess is, it came from the distortion ring.
