Cyrus walked around the party to find T'Kir. When he did so, he smiled. "So my dear T'Kir, do you wish to come and scare the living daylights out of the Emperor?" he asked. Of course he was not 'in costume' yet, but when he was.... Right now he was the Uncle of Bessie, and great-uncle of all her kids. And if he had to play Romulan Nero to save his family, that he would do.

He turned around to T'Kir and looked back at her, winking, "Coming?"

Eric looked around for his brother Jack and sent him a message. ~I am getting good vibes from that Admiral who just defected but I would be interested in the read you are getting from him... since you would be one of the main teeps working with him. What do you think? Do you think he can be trusted?"

Katie looked over at the Admiral kneeling on the floor. Then she stole a glance over at Carly the elder. ~Carly... what do you think about him? I know you are a powerful teep too so do you think he can be trusted?~ She didn't say she trusted him as she wanted to give Carly the chance to decide for herself without being bothered about what she might think. ~If he could give us the intel we need to save my mother....~

(wow gee 3 separate conversations uhmmmmmmmmmm you're getting all in one)

- T'Kir

"An' who might you be? Not that I'm entirely opposed to scarin' the livin' daylights out of the Emperor or Empress." T'Kir said with a sly grin. "But last time I went away at a function like this with a man I dinnae know I got parasites and a rash that lasted a week. So a lil' introduction would be in order... "

- Galen/Dylan to Nick

"Ah, I'm well aware of Admiral Darius's rep and frankly the fact that the bounty on his head is high enough for me to pay off the construction on a new Starship, I think that's the kind of man I need on our side." President Ryder said with a raised eyebrow. "Anything to get them out of our hair for a while. I'm slowly coming to the conclusion that we'll probably never truly be rid of the Imperium."

"I'm not picking up an deceit." Jack said as he glanced at Eric. "Although honestly it is not really my place to 'scan' people like that, other than a general impression."

Carly cleared her throat. "He's an angry man, righteous anger, but angry. No malice that I can sense." she gave her grandmother a look and whispered. "Little Carly is what I was... my telepathy was always on. I sensed as much as I saw. It took me until my teens to finally learn how to block it all out. I also lacked any kind of real filter and was entirely a typical very blunt Xenexian girl." she chuckled. "I think if we don't let him help us, he's going to help in his own way and probably get himself killed. The man does have a death wish, given he walked into a place like that strapped with a weapon."

Carly whispered to Katie. "I think he could be very helpful in our mission to save your mum... he appears as trustworthy as any other Admiral. They can never be fully trusted because you do realize when you become a flag officer you lose a percentage of your sanity."

Nick laughed when heard Carly say that. "IT'S TRUE. You put on the gold striped uniform and you are utterly consigned to being wacko." he extended his hand to Darryl. "So... are you good wacko Admiral or should I quietly walk away and call for security?"

"You tell me." Darryl said as he looked at Nick and took his hand. "But I can say that you would not be standing here if I were the bad kind of nuts. Many times you were targeted for removal, and execution. Many times I ensured you stayed alive... which is why I am here, to ensure once again that you stay alive. It's up to you if you want my help... if you want to live... or your family to live."

"So who else is targeting me and mine?" Nick said and shook his head. "You think I have no idea that I have a mark on my head, have had it for years. Only thing that kept me alive were my relationships with other people. So if you were one of those... thank you." he said with a smile. "So what is it you need from me?"

"I am afraid you have it backwards." he said with a chuckle. "I am here to help you... provided I can get up off the floor."

Nick chuckled and brushed him off. "So... then instead of me asking how you'll help, you just tell me. Hmm?"

"I can give you what you need the most - the way to defeat the Imperium once and for all. Admiral Dylan isn't the only one who has a fleet at his disposal, but just one of many. They can all be at your disposal. All you need to do is ask."

"I already said yes to what you're offering, so show me what you can do and tell me more." Nick said as he gestured to a table. "You got me interested, now tell me more."

Einri was waiting and watching for the perfect time to make his presence known and take back his home and his throne. He saw Bessie, his daughter, sitting on his throne and it made his blood boil! He rushed through the crowd, pushing passed anyone who would stand in his way.

Before anyone had a chance to say anything, the party was interrupted by the last person anyone expected to see.

"Father?" Queen Bessie asked as she saw her father coming towards her. But how could it be her father? "I thought you were dead."

"You are the one that is dead." Einri said as he took out a phaser, aimed it at Bessie and fired.

Bessie Andrews just stared on in shock at what had just happened. But she said nothing.

Nick looked at Einri in shock and dove to take him down... no one shoots at his best friend!

Bessie May looked down at herself and saw the gaping wound where her heart used to be. Then she looked up at her father as she began to fall, asking him one question. "WHY!" Within mere moments, Bessie was dead.

Nick flexed his right hand and threw a fireball at Einri. It was one of the rare times he would use his power in public, but all he did was put a wall between him and everyone else. "Bessie!" he shouted as he ran to her side. "Don't you die on me..."

"Damn." said Bessie Andrews from behind Nick. "Not again."

"Again?!" Nick looked at Andrews in shock. "This isn't like breaking a fingernail before a date!"

Bessie Andrews rolled her eyes. "Oh come on Nick, if you stop and think you will realize what is actually happening here. You of all people should know what's really going on here."

Looking at the wound and then back at the doctor he gave her a look. "I so want to hate you right now."

Bessie wondered what he meant and played innocent. "Why would you want to hate me?"

"Just a damn waste." Nick said and set the Bessie he held in his arms down. "And you got some 'splainin' to do."

"Whatever do you mean?" Bessie asked him. There was no way he could know.

"Was a really good copy. Even I was almost fooled." Nick said with a smirk. "Almost." he hugged her. "Oh Bessie May." he chuckled. "So... can you tell me why he shot your LMD and what he was talking about?"

Bessie rolled her eyes again. There was no way he could have known, but like always he was trying to save face. "Don't try and save face Mr President, you had no idea it was a copy, no one did."

"Well... even a good copy with enough differences still has elements of the original, otherwise, what's the point." Nick whispered and squeezed her hand. "And alright alright, you got me. But seriously... why did he shoot you." he looked over at Einri. "Any reason why I shouldn't let those flames just get a liiiitle bit closer?"

"He's my father." said Bessie. "And you would only be killing his LMD." she said with a heavy sigh. "I don't know where he really is, but this was not his choice."

"Well, then I wouldn't waste it." Nick said as he re-absorbed the flame and looked around. "Great parlour trick." he said and walked up to Einri. "Now... answers. Please."

Instead of providing answers, the LMD collapsed and ceased to work.

Bessie sighed heavily. There went her chance of finding him! "He is my father, and he would be King if we knew where he was and could rescue him. You think you have a bad wife/ex, his is much worse and is so evil... and yes I am talking about my mother."

"Your mother... you never did have anything good to say about her when I'd ask." Nick said and crossed his arms. "So, you're not 'really' the Queen huh... wanna be a Vice President? I do need one."

Of course Bessie had to correct his misconception. "I am the Queen while my father is god knows where." she said as she looked at him. "Wait, what? What did you just ask me?"

"My Vice President is going to another colony... and well... I missed having you at my side." Nick said with a smile. "Don't have to say 'yes', right away, but... this alliance between our people would certainly help having someone like you here. Worked wonders for our relationship with the Romulan Republic having a Romulan Vice President."

"How will your relationship with the Romulan Republic be if their VP is gone?" Bessie asked as she considered the idea. She wondered something so she asked him in telepathic privacy. ~Will I still be able to use what you call my LMD that would do VP stuff while I am on duty as a doctor? It is not the average LMD, in fact your counterpart Nick Czeski made a lot of improvements, and it has allowed me to do two things at once, at least. If I can use that LMD as the VP me, you have a deal.~

~ I think we can arrange something.~ Nick replied to Bessie's telepathic questions. "Romulans still love us, even more than we're letting Shi take on a planet they recently started to colonize, figured if she was able to get this place up and running, she can work miracles there too. So yeah we're still good with the RR, it's the True Romulan Empire that's a thorn in our side that we're still trying to sort out." he shrugged his shoulders. Then he saw Nick Czeski run toward them.

"Oh come on... did he have to shoot it in the heart?" Czeski bemoaned. "That's the hardest part to replace. I'm going to have slag it and start all over." he looked at Bessie. "You're going to have to ask me really nicely to give you another one like this." he sniffed the charred circuitry and fluid. "Well now we know what a point blank phaser blast will do." He sighed "Better it than you I say."

"So do I." said Nancy as she joined them. She put her arm around Nick C and whispered in his ear. "I am sure I can make it worth your while helping mom so that she won't end up like this."

"Oh all right." Nick C said with a chuckle. "So ah... hey. I'm you."

"Hey..." Nick Ryder said with a shake of his head. "I'm sure Nancy will make it worth your while." he winked and crouched down beside the LMD. "So, you did this? Huh... knew I should have done more than build engines after my divorce."

"Oh you should see the things I've designed, I guess you could say I'm your creativity completely unchecked. Mostly." Nick C said and held onto Nancy's hand. "So, did I hear correctly and you offered Bessie your VP spot? You're not going to say no are you Bess?"

"I am unsure if I am the VP type." Bessie said with a shrug. "And I was looking forward to exercising my medical muscle. But I guess it depends on where I am needed the most." She sighed. "So Nick, you really think you need me as your VP?"

"Can't really think of a person I would want more than you at my side, especially now." Nick said with a smile. "Besides, you know I got a thing for intelligent blondes."

Bessie shrugged her shoulders as she looked at the LMD. "I suppose I will have to find someone else to look after my people then..."

"Don't look at me." Nancy said, making a face. "I will take your place in medical though, with a preference for counselling though. There are so many sawbones around here and not enough headshrinkers... so I'll take up head-shrinking for a while."

Bessie smiled at her daughter, approving of her decision. Then she looked at both Nicks. "Do you both really think I would work as a VP?"

"I know I do." said Nancy with a smirk on her face. "It's what you were born to do."

"I thought I was born to be a doctor." Bessie said.

"You were. But right now you were born to be a doctor of the TA government. It is sick, and who better than a doctor and former Queen to help heal it?" Nancy asked.

Bessie shrugged. "That's up to the President to say." She was confused. "If you really want me...."

"You want the job as much as they want you to do the job." said Nancy, as she winked to President Nick. "Right Nick?" She would wait for President Nick to reply, though she already thought she knew what he would say. "VP for Bessie May..."

"Right Nancy." Nick said with a smile. "Hey, I didn't want to be in politics, even though the Federation wanted me to do more than be Admirality oversight here when we started to colonize here, but sometimes life has a way of changing things. And dealing with real politicians... I'd rather have a root canal but I know what we're doing here is worth it. And hey I've only got about three years left on my term, who knows if I'll even go for a second term." he chuckled. "I mean I chose Shiarrael because she was a strong leader and well... you weren't available. I wanted the old band back together, I had Becca as my replacement as FXO. I'm not forcing you to say yes... if you don't that's fine. Got a few others I can ask I suppose, but they'd be second to you."
