ALT-Putnam "wildstar,whats our heading?"

ALT WILDSTAR"right now were headed towards earth"

ALT-Putnam "just take us anywhere the borg arnt"

ACTION: THERE SENSORS BEGIN TO GO OFF THE SCALE.....

ALT-Putnam "damn it,now whats wrong?"

--CUT SCENE TO THE USS GLORY, IN KYTES QUARTERS AS MAC TRIES TO GET KYTE UP TO SPEED IN HIS OWN SPECIAL WAY........



_kyte_ ACTION sits at her desk

Mac_Hudson ACTION: Enters the room

_kyte_: " hello Mac"

Mac_Hudson: How ya feeling?

_kyte_: " I am fit." looks at Mac

_kyte_: " how are you liking the fleet?"

Mac_Hudson: Well, to tell the truth, not much... They don't seem to understand economics...

_kyte_: " ahhh, but they rarely have a use for it."

Mac_Hudson: and by the way, where'd you learn to do that lightbulb thing, anyways? Looks useful.

_kyte_ ACTION looks at Mac..." Its a ... I was born with it..."

Mac_Hudson: Ahhh.

Mac_Hudson: Never saw ya do it before. Keeping secrets from me?

_kyte_ ACTION laughs.." I ALWAYS have secrets"

Mac_Hudson ACTION: Laughs

Mac_Hudson: Yeah, that's not surprising.

_kyte_: " What happend to the raven Mac?"

Mac_Hudson: well, it was pretty odd...

_kyte_: " odd??

Mac_Hudson: Nobody really knows where the Raven is.

_kyte_ ACTION starts hiting keys on her console

_kyte_: " i see that Duffy is locking me out of the main frame too"

Mac_Hudson: There was this big flash, and then there were these Borg ships.. but they weren't Borg ships...

_kyte_: " we need to find out what happened"

Mac_Hudson: we?

_kyte_: " will you help me Mac?"

_kyte_ ACTION looks at Mac.." or are you going again?"

Mac_Hudson: Kyte, I'm not sure I'll be here to help. I've offered that captain Xena or whatever her name is a deal. If she takes me up on it, sure, I'll do whatever I can. But if she doesn't, I'm off to Ferenginar.

_kyte_: " I do seem to spend alot of time waving good bye to you"...kyte laughs

_kyte_: " I understand Mac....I am Glad you were here..."

Mac_Hudson ACTION: Laughs

Mac_Hudson: It's been fun, but not too profitable.

_kyte_: " If you go... send word if you hear anything... you know I pay well"

Mac_Hudson ACTION: Laughs

_kyte_ ACTION laughs

Mac_Hudson: Yes, that you do.

_kyte_: " hows that ship of yours..or um the one you barrowed?"

Mac_Hudson: Well, apparently they repaired it without telling me. Rather surprised that Starfleet could manage that.

_kyte_: " well some of our people are good at what they do"

Mac_Hudson: Oh, not the repairing. The not telling. Starfleet always likes to tell people they've been helped...

_kyte_: " i se... perhaps it was the confusion"

Mac_Hudson: Could be.

Mac_Hudson: Any chance you'll join me?

_kyte_ ACTION takes out a con link, gives it to Mac

Mac_Hudson ACTION: takes the link.

Mac_Hudson: "What's this for?

_kyte_: " well...I will think on it... but till then you can call me on thids if you need me"

_kyte_: " i dont have much of a job left here... with the Admiral gone..."

_kyte_: " i do try" ...smiles

Mac_Hudson ACTION: T-shirt reads "Do not feed the bears"

Capt_Xendra: Ok you know what you two are giving me a headache

Adm_Riker: No longer?? You expect me to believe one can simply STOP being a Borg?

HovVaj: "NOT completed....there is a difference"

Capt_Xendra: I have heard of it Will...

Adm_Merrick: " Listen theres a reason why my hand loks like this...."

Capt_Xendra: Well you best get to explianing it Mister cause I feel trigger happy

Adm_Riker: Fine. But whoever you are, what I want to know is why are you here??

Adm_Merrick ACTION: shows his hand to Xendra

HovVaj: "For that reason....he is your best hope of exterminating this Merrikus....with your help"

Adm_Merrick: " I am NOT borg, it may appear that i am.... i am part of a federation experiment in our univerese"

Capt_Xendra ACTION: looks at Merricks hand.... "Explain"

Adm_Riker: I hate to break it to you lady, but we aren't exactly in a position to help anyone. Did you fail to notice we live on an asteroid?
