New Reality
Rissie agreed to meet Elloma in the mess hall for breakfast. Neither of them, had duty shift at the moment. Her hair was pulled back in a pony tale, and just wearing work out clothes, after breakfast, she was going to hit the gym for a bit. She was the first one to arrive. She was very competitive.
Elloma came up from behind, and put her hands in front of her eyes. "Guess who you sexy thing." Said Elloma, stealing Rissie's line.
Rissie smilled, as she pulled down Elloma's hand. "Good Moring, Lieutenant Sexy Thing!" She said with a big grin on her face. She was happy for Elloma.
"Thank you, so let's get some food, we have a lot to talk about." Elloma said, trying to decide how best to approach the fact that the Captain was in her alternate universe. She was still keeping her relationship with the Captain a secret. Elloma was still in her pajamas. She did manage to take off the Captain's robe, before she left his room.
"Hard to believe, it has been nearly a year. Mom freaked out crying when I talked to her..." Started to say Rissie, then realizing that her family cut her off. She had no one back home to call, to tell them, she was okay. "Sorry Elle." Simply said Rissie.
"Don't be, so your mom was freaking out?" Asked Elloma, wanting Rissie to finish her original topic. She was happy for Rissie, that her mom missed her. Deep down Elloma wanted her mom to miss her. She believed deep down she did, but damn culture influences did not allow her to express it.
"Luckily my dad was there. I tried to explain to them, that we were caught in a temporal rift, and wanted to tell them more, but it felt like I was just confusing them more and more." Said Rissie, realizing her parents, knew very little about spacial time rifts.
Elloma and Rissie made it through the line, and grabbed their plates with thier drinks on it, and took a seat, at a two person table. "I think everyone was confused, especially temporal investigations. I swore my investigator nearly had a heart attack, when I told him I was a metamorph in the other universe, and that the Captain and I had to cause a temporal rift to get back home. Sounds like a lot of us had to do that." Started off Elloma, trying to keep the story going forward.
"What was that like?" Asked Rissie. She wondered what it was like to be the choosen member of your world, to be perfect soulmate for any potential partner, once she imprinted with them. She was curious, and annoyed at the same time. Being the Metamorph sounded to her, like you were a slave to your people, and must do their bidding.
"Insane, I woke up, having my sister talk to me about my daily schedule. Having breakfast with my family. In that reality, I never joined starfleet, we never became friends. It was lonely and hell, if you ask me." Said Elloma, trying to wrap up that question, she had a feeling that Rissie, would want to know more.
"The Captain was in your reality, wow. That is strange!" Said Rissie, wondering how the Captain and Elloma, always seemed to be around each other, apparently over the past year. She could not help but wonder, was something going on?
"Yes, not sure how he got there, but he did help me get home home. It was sort of fun, being the metamorph around me. He had to treat me like a VIP and not one of his junior officers. That was cool." Said Elloma, hoping she chose the right word, to describe how she felt about that particular scenario.
"That would have been cool to see. Wow you get the fun reality. In my reality, I was an engineer on a starbase, it was boring and luckily by accident a lab exploded near me, a science lab. And I was brought back to our reality. It was so boring, and my death was pointless." Suggested Rissie.
Elloma felt bad for her, but then she started to think about it, that universe just lost a metamorph. She hoped that universe got another metamorph soon.
"What are you doing later tonight?" Asked Rissie with a big grin on her face.
"Working, why was up?" Asked Elloma, wondering what Rissie had in mind.
"Got a holodeck reservation, wanna join me?" Asked Rissie, hoping to play catch up and have a little fun later on tonight.
"What did you have in mind?" Asked Elloma. She wanted to say no, and see Tyler. However she needed to keep up appearance of a normal life.
"Dancing, we all need to get out a little and have some fun, what do you say?" Asked Rissie, with a big grin, and a soft nudge.
"Sure." Said Elloma, as she tried her best to crack out a smile. In reality, she wanted to explore her feelings more with Tyler. The scene starts to fade, with the two of them chatting more in the mess hall.
