| Ja: |
Mr.Tuvok, take the main deflectors offline. Mr.Kim, reroute the port
and starbord plasm flow to the main deflector. We can use it to
generate the warp field.
|
| Tu: |
Deflector's offline.
|
| Ki: |
Initializing the plasma flow.
|
| Ja: |
Release the warp particles.
|
| Pa: |
Scanning the singularity.
|
| To: |
Anything?
|
| Ki: |
Not yet. Warp particles are full intensity.
|
| Pa: |
I'm picking up something. A slight irregularity. It could be
rupture in the event horizon.
|
| Ja: |
Put it on screen.
|
| Pa: |
It is the rupture, Captain, it's 15 meters by 10 meters.
|
| To: |
Oh, it's too small. It must've collasped when we first passed through it.
|
| Ja: |
We found the crack. That's the important thing. Now, how do we make
it bigger?
|
| To: |
Put away into it(?) and force it open. We could try tachyon beam.
|
| Ja: |
All right, a tachyon beam. Mr.Parris, bring us closer.
|
| Pa: |
Captain, if we get close to the rupture, our warp engines might make
it collpased even further.
|
| Ja: |
Can we emit a beam from here?
|
| Ki: |
The rupture's over 50 million km away. We don't have enough power
to project the tacyon beam that far.
|
| Ja: |
We have to take a shuttle craft.
|
| Pa: |
You need the best pilot you've got in that shuttle, Captain. That'll
be me.
|
| Ja: |
Getting near is an easy part, Mr.Paris. We need someone who's familiar
with the finer points of temporal mechanics. And unless you're hiding
your credentials(potentials?), I don't think that's you. B'Ellana, you
are with me. The bridge is yours, Commander.
|
| Ja: |
We've cleared the Voyager.
|
| To: |
Shields are at full strength.
|
| Ja: |
We'll reach the rupture in approximately 4 and half minutes. Let's
get the tacyon beam on line.
|
| To: |
Remodulating emitters. Captain, I want to apologize for losing
my temper in your ready room. I think maybe you are hailing(?) a
little bit too close to home. You know, I respect Chakotay. But he
is wrong. I'm not an officer material and both know it. The truth
is I quit the academy because I realized I couldn't make it in
starfleet. And believe me no one would be sorry to see me go.
|
| Ja: |
Professor Jardman was.
|
| To: |
What?
|
| Ja: |
He put a letter in your permanent file, saying he wants you to reapply.
He would support you. He thought you were one of the most promissing
cadets he ever taught.
|
| To: |
I fought with him almost every day. I was always questioning his, his
methods, his assumptions. And he was always slapping me down like
upstart kid. I was suprised he didn't help me pack my bags.
|
| Ja: |
Some professors like students who challenge their assumptions, B'Ellana.
And so do some captains. Professor Jardman wasn't alone. Many of
your teacheres thought that you had potentials to be an outstanding
officer. He led more friends at the academy than you realized. We're
in 15 km from the rupture. Start charging the tacyon beam.
|
| To: |
Tacyon beam on line.
Shields down to 62%.
|
| Ja: |
Increase speed. We have to get out of the rupture before the space
distortions tear us apart.
