"See that you do. Until then, I might go have some more fun with Tiberius. Before you get suspicious, me and my baby turned up at Xenex and gave Tiberius a fright, and something to think about." He looked over at Nick and thought he should tell him. "Did you realize Mr President, that I was able to teleport right into his room and stab him without any security stopping me? Unfortunately I have been banned from killing him or I would have finished that little problem, but it is not my destiny to do so. Let's just say I gave Tiberius something to think about... and should give you something to think about, why it was so easy for me to just teleport right in there and almost blast him away." |

"Annnnd you just scared me." Ang said and stepped back a bit. "I'm guessing Tiberius is just a cocky shit." Nick said with a chuckle. "Probably thinks he's got enough lackeys to keep him secure." he raised an eyebrow. "And you stabbed him? Seriously?" "And who's 'your baby'?" Ang asked with a laugh. "If she's Romulan you are getting an ass kick for calling her that. You do realize that?" |

Cyrus chuckled. "Don't be scared of me, only people like Tiberius and his would-be ex Julie, and whore K'n'zy should be scared of me... or rather should I say those who pull their strings. Like those who are trying to pull my brother's strings. Ey Einri." Cyrus shouted over to him, hoping he would hear through the link in the lmd. "I've got a brother to save, and a people to save... so many people need saving by me, and I'm supposed to be the bad guy." He looked at Nick. "It is those that pull the strings that bring the darkness. And they are the ones you must fear." He looked at Ang and shrugged. "You are the one that called your ship baby, so I just copied your usage. I wasn't calling T'Kir baby because I know she would have shot me where I stood." He laughed. "And yes I was able to stab Tiberius where he stood, and I have a feeling security won't be tightened as much as he thinks it will be. Hopefully a team will go in and see just how close they can get... and I bet Bessie already has the team in mind. Don't you madam VP?" he asked and got a smirk and a nod as her reply. "Told you." |

"T'Kir was an assassin so yeah you would have been dead if you called her that." Ang grinned. "The one that raised me shot a main for calling her 'baby'." she chuckled. "Well the Alth'Indor IS my baby... i had her built, I was her only CO." "Well Cyrus, then I'm glad we've got you on our side." Nick said and squeezed Bessie's shoulder. "So I think we all have something to think about and celebrate later." Ang nodded her head. "Indeed, now if you'll excuse me, I should really get back to the one who brought me to the party." "Smitten kitten?" Nick chuckled. "I have no idea what you're talking about." Ang said and walked away and nodded her head to Cryus. "We'll do lunch sometime." |

"We'll do lunch sometime?" Cyrus asked in confusion. "Do people even say that? Besides, I don't 'do' lunch. And time is running out. So I'll be busy while you go back to running the starbase that isn't your home, while your home lingers in the bay." Bessie shook her head as she looked at her uncle. "Arnaud!" she exclaimed. "Sorry, Uncle Arnaud." "Worry about your own house before you worry about mine, Queen Elizabeth... oh wait, it's not Queen now is it? So who will be Queen when the Queen is away? It can't be him!" he exclaimed as he pointed to the lifeless form of the LMD. Then he thought of something and started running towards the LMD. "Beam it out of here! NOW!" he shouted. "Or it will blow us all to HELL!" |

"Why do things always blow up around you?" Ang said to Nick, her eyes rolling slightly as she pulled out a transport tag from her purse and threw it onto the LMD. "Command Deck, lock onto my transport tag, beam it into a safe orbit." "Ma'am?" "Just do it!" Ang shouted and looked at Cyrus and then Bessie. "LMDs like that don't always blow up do they?" |

"No, they don't." Cyrus replied. "Unless they are operated by the people who hold him, and bring the darkness to everyone." He sighed. "Thanks for that Colonel. Well done." He knew his brother would have experienced pain at the disposal of his LMD but there was nothing he could do. "I just hope they don't punish dear Einri for his failure. Though he would have found a way to self-destruct anyway. No way he would hurt his daughter, or his family." "But he almost killed mother." Nancy said. He shook his head. "He was one LMD attacking another LMD. But next time we may not be so lucky." |

"Well... two LMDs, one blowing up... party's over for me." Ang said and waved. "I'm going to go with Kurt and try to enjoy the next few hours before my next duty shift. Before something else needs to be beamed up or blown up." |

"I think that is his way of saying the briefing is over, and the party has just begun." Bessie said as she winked at Cyrus. "This is what you call our combined control and command centre. You come in here when you have a report to give someone. If they are not here, simply send them a message, and they can hook in by going into their holodeck, and you can meet back here." She walked over to her LMD and sighed. "I much preferred this look. But now what am I going to do." She winked to Nick C. "Please find a way to replace her so Queen Bessie can make an appearance when needed. Until then, until I am made VP, I have doctor's work to do. You know where to find me Mr President, lords ladies and gentleman. For now, call this party ended. When you want to rejoin the party's 4C just say 4C as in combined control and command centre. Mr President, I'll be on Byron in sickbay if you need me. Have fun everyone, before hell comes." |

As the holodecks disengaged, and the parties were separated, Bessie sank down to her knees and looked over at her LMD, seeing its death as the death of her very being the Queen. It was not an easy death, or an easy task, to simply stop being the Queen. Why did Nick want her to be the VP? Couldn't she have been a liaison without having to serve his government, and serve him? Maybe that was it. He didn't like anyone near his stature so he 'demoted' her to be his VP, the operative word, 'his'. She just held herself and rocked back and forth, trying to think about why he would do this to her. How could she say no? But why did she have to say yes? All that she was was tied up in being Queen Bessie. That was who and what she was. And now Nick didn't see her as that, didn't like her as that... no he wanted her to be HIS VP. What was she going to do? |

Angel was about to disconnect her holodeck, but decided she wanted to have a little one on one chat with Bessie. Bessie was kind of her inspiration and she could tell there was something else on her mind besides the fallen LMD. Clearing her throat she stood in the doorway. "Admir... Your highness... uhm... Aunt Bessie?" Angel said with a slight nervous tinge to her voice. "I know most of the deck disconnected, but... I wanted to talk with you privately. Are you okay?" she asked as she walked closer to her. "I was fooled by the LMD for whatever that's worth." crouching a bit awkwardly due to her not being used to the pregnancy belly. "I just wanted to say... uhm... just because my father asks and gets that optimistic look in his eyes and that smile, you don't have to say 'yes'. Although we do need someone like you, I really don't know who we have that can hit the ground running as it were. Considering the VP is essentially the 'boss' of us military types, we never really get a say in the matter." she reached out and touched her hand. "Whatever you choose, I'll support you. People think I took after my father, but I really wanted to take after you." |

Bessie blushed. "I didn't know that you wanted to take after me. I mean why would you want to?" She shrugged. "I'm not being very good at being me myself." She sat up and looked Angel in the eyes. "I'll be fine.... I usually am... I have to be. It's just... I feel like I will be letting people down, no matter what I choose. And yet... we do need an alliance between our peoples. And if I could speak for we military, then I can do that. I just have to figure out who will serve as Queen now. I am afraid that it would bring about a civil war within my people so I have to try and avoid that if I can. It's just so complicated. But I really feel like I can't say no." |

"Saying 'no' is hard for women like us." Angel said with a sigh. "We so want to help everyone or do everything and yet we can only be in one or two places at once." she laughed slightly. "And transitions are never easy... not to mention once you give up a title, it may be hard to get it back from the one you gave it to. But if she's the right person..." Angel touched Bessie's arm. "You taught me from a young age that there is nothing holding a strong woman back from not only affecting those around her, but also creating some change within us. None of us are perfect and I'm sure a screw up or two will happen, but... we aren't Borg, perfection is boring. Plus... if things go to plan, we may be absorbing the Imperium Starfleet once they fall, we're going to need a strong hand to keep it all in line." she touched her own belly and smiled. "My daughter will grow up with a semblance of peace, that's worth the sacrifices. I suppose you should know that, after I have my daughter in about four-ish months, I'll need a posting. Or a job. Rumor has it that Ang, my counterpart, wants my job permanently. Then my leave would go from temporary to indefinite." she smiled slightly. "So if you do need a hand I'm all your's." |

"Which is as good a reason to say yes as anything else I guess." said Bessie, touched and surprised that she had made such an impression on Angel. "I have been on many different places at once, hence the Bessie May LMD, but ... that does make it interesting. People may accept that Queen Bessie May is dead, because in a way she is. That might make it a bit easier to find a replacement. I know people would mourn, but I think they would rather think me dead, than think I abandoned them...." |
