    Nick: I understand it pretty well... too well really.... *sighs* What now.... Someone hand me a plate and get me some of that steak and lobster.... throw some shrimp on too...

    ***********

    Briana: *Looks down to see her in a pair of jeans, combat boots, and a dark blue Starfleet academy T-shirt* a bra would have been nice. *grabs her usual uniform jacket with her pips still on, slapping on her commbadge and following seras* She's not gonna run...

    kate: *runs over and gets more food* good im starving!

    ******

    kara: *paces around seeming calm for now.* im not really sure where to start, its a very long story... i hate her that much is for sure.... well hate isnt the right word.... i despise her very existence, there are no words to describe the burning anger and hatred i feel for that woman... im not sure how im ganna react to seeing her again after so many long years... ive seen her thru jakaras body in my attempts to regain control... but its been so many years since we've met face to face and that last time was when she killed me. could you imagine seeing the one that birthed you for the first time since you were just a child left on your own.... and she was only there to kill you. *takes a deep breath looking at the floor* ive only been back a few days now, havent even had time to adjust to being back and already im about to confront the thing i hate most in this gods damned world. the sheer f*cking irony.

    ******

    seras: what ever happens briana just know none of it is on you.... *walks to the holodeck.*

    Nick: Need some melted butter.... and potatoes... and some of the crayfish.

    Holo Nick *Grabs the requested items, putting them at the table where he' sitting*

    Reina: Maybe she's changed. Maybe you've changed. *she puts a hand on Kara's shoulder trying to reassure her* I can't really imagine what you or her have been through... But I have hope.

    Zach: Well they certainly don't change much in the future. *he smiles softly before turning to Magnus* How many times have you time traveled?

    seras: *as they reach the holodeck door she stops.* i love you briana.... i hope you know that. *she says tightly hugging her.* i count myself blessed that you came into my life, you're a wonderful daughter and an exemplary officer...... *she lets go and walks into the holodeck.*

    kara: who knows.... *she says looking over as seras walks in giving her a vicious stare.* seras....

    seras: valendria.... *the two stare at each other, the tension in the air is thick.*

    *Reina waves with a slightly nervous smile, hoping to help relax the situation a little*

    Alexis: Its all good. I know I'm not supposed to eat too much but it's hard to avoid that.

    Zach: What you time traveled as a baby? *he looks a bit confused* I'm asking the number of occasions, not when you first could.

    Briana: *walks into the holodeck, stopping between Kara and Seras to the side* I'm not going to let you hurt each other.

    Magnus: and i don't know. I could open portals for a long time. I stole a lot of fast food, I ended up in a lot of places i shouldn't have been. these things happen.

    Nick: *Breaks the tail off a crayfish, sucking out the juice from the body before pulling the tail meat out with his teeth, eating it*

    *the area around kara is nearly a blazing inferno of heat with noticeable warping of the air as if walking thru a hot summer day.*

    kara: *crosses her arms, from beneath the bangs covering most of her face are a pare of glowing crimson eyes filled with a mix of pain and rage. she stares at seras remaining silent.*

    seras: im sorry valendria.... for everything.... i know you're angry and you have every right to be after all of my failings... at this point i doubt their is anything i can do to atone for what ive done.... ive not been the best mother to you....

    kara: *finally breaks her silence.* you're damn right im pissed off! and you a mother? dont make me laugh you spawned me nothing more! to me you're less then nothing! the only thing you can do is burn for what you did and didnt do. i have to know tho what was your plan? just forget i ever existed and let that b*tch jakara live MY life!? you had to know sooner or later that i would come back.

    seras: i dont know what i was thinking! i royally scr*wed up and im sorry! i know it means nothing but if i could take it all back i would. *her eye tears up as she starts softly crying.*

    ******

    kate: i eat like this a lot....

    Reina: Kara... coming from a mother... I believe she means it. *she stays close to Kara despite the sweltering heat*

    ***

    Alexis: Yeah but you have like a black hole for a stomach. I have a normal tum tum. *she pokes her own belly* I get a stomach ache when I eat too much.

    Zach: When I first time traveled one of my mom's from the almost killed me since she didn't understand we were related.

    Briana: *Sadly looks at the ground, the heat not getting to her* Kara.... valendria.... Please don't hurt her.... I know its selfish of me to request this of you.... But please.... all of this gets to her... she's earnest... she wants to care after messing up so many times..... She.... had trouble thinking you were sane... please... You can prove her wrong and show her you really are sane... that you really are a woman capable of good in this world... for me... for our family... Please... but if you want to strike her down, i request you strike me down too.... You know i will come back from it at least.

    ***********

    Magnus:....... That's rough buddy.

    Nick: *Cracks open the lobster with his bare hands, pulling out the meat from the tail, claws, legs, ect. and sitting it in the bowl of hot melted butter with the potatoes to sit and soak for a bit, throwing some of the other shrimp in there with it*

    kara: *flames ignite on her shoulders as her rage boils even more.* its too little too late for any of that! you may feel bad for what you did but it doesnt change to fact that whats done is done!

    seras: *puts a hand on brianas shoulder.* its ok briana.... ive come to terms with the fact that i may not be leaving here.... *she looks over at valendria.* if my death will ease your pain then i go willingly to it.... its the least i can do....

    kara: you left me when i was six years old on a world that completely hated me because i was different.... i spent my early life as a slave, beaten every day.... just for being what i was. everyone was scared of me that they never once thought maybe all i ever wanted was some one to simply give a sh*t about me! my own mother couldnt even be bothered to! all the pain and mental torment i had endured finally broke me and i unleashed my hatred on every one on that wrenched planet..... and it felt pretty f*cking good so i kept doing it to fill the void left by you but it was never enough. the more i killed the larger it got, then you came along that fateful day and all you cared about was the greater good of mortal kind..... you knew damn well i wouldnt stop until every planet burned.... until all life was snuffed out and you were right. maybe if you had opened up on that day maybe i would've been more receptive but you let this hatred fester in me for countless billions of years and now there isnt a single thing i want more in life then to see you die! but i want to know..... why? why did you just abandon me like that? when i needed you most........

    seras: i... was scared.... of what you could become.... you were always such a dark and sinister child.... i realize now that my inaction caused the very thing i was so scared of happening..... my only hope is that you find peace in my passing valendria.... even with all of my mistakes ive never stopped loving you.... i just let my fear over take me, i am truly sorry..... *the two now stand within three feet of one another. tension between them is palpable at this point.*

    ******

    kate: *glances over at magnus* i.... magnus can you come with me real quick?

    Alexis: Did I say something wrong? *her ears fold down as she looks anxious*

    Zach: I'm not sure kiddo... I can kind of feel something off.

    ***

    Reina: Kara please... you'll regret it. Maybe not now... but eventually. I can't even comprehend how long you've lived with this anger. But the only way this stops is if you stop it. If you kill her then you might lose a part of yourself forever.. Her death won't fill that void or erase it.

    Magnus: *nods, walking over to kate* wanna ride on my shoulders?

    Nick: what's going on? *cuts into his steak*

    ***************

    Briana: She's right kara... If I could help you forgive yourself for the horrible things you have done in the past... Can you not learn from what i did for you and forgive her or work something out... or at the very least just leave her be... Think about Zander and shelly and jasper.... They wouldn't want their sister to kill their mother...... and think of Magnus and Sakina, Desmond, Denrick, Morgan and Indy.... You going to take their grandmother away from them.... She was scared... it doesn't make everything better and it doesn't justify it, but... don't you know what its like to be scared to... the pain and suffering it causes... how it can lead to bad decisions... I'm not asking you to suddenly love her... I'm asking you to give her a chance like i gave you... Like i gave jakara... *looks at Kara with pleading eyes* I love you and i know you're capable of doing the right thing...

    kara: *theres only silence as tears of blood fall down her cheek. for a good five minuets or so the two of them just stare at one another.* maybe in another life...... *the toll of her suffering completely over takes her as she lets out a grunt that eventually turns into a blood curdling cry of all consuming anger as she summons her sword and cleaves seras in the shoulder down to her lower chest in one action. seras falls to her knees with blood spilling from her mouth.*

    seras: *she slowly reaches a hand up to valendrias face, caressing it.* i only..... hope that you can..... one day.... forgive me..... i love you valendria........ *she says as her hand falls lifeless and her head slowly droops down. she sputters one more cough of blood then kneels there motionless in a large pool of her own blood.*

    kate: *looks like she was about to say something but she suddenly gasps and winces looking forward wide eyed.*

    Briana: *looks on shocked, her eyes wide darting to kara* What the hell have you done?! you.... You.... why? *Starts to sob, falling to her knees helplessly* No!... Noooooooooooo! why....

    *************

    Nick: is.... Something wrong? *Puts down his knife and fork, walking over to kate*

    Magnus: *has the same look on his face, it soon twisting to anger, frustration, anguish* I... Need to go somewhere.... Watch her... make sure she doesn't leave... Take care of her, please... for the love of whatever is out there, please *kneels down, hugging Kate*

    Nick: O-okay?.... sure... no problem...

    Magnus: *stands up, walking towards a wall, and opening a portal walking through it with it immediately closing, leaving a dark scorch mark on the wall in the place of the portal*

    T'Lera: Something feels wrong again... dark... *she feels sorrowful tears in her eyes* M-make it stop... I didn't ask for this... *she tries to turn on her psionic inhibitor but it does little to dull her senses this time and she curls up on the floor rocking back and forth* Why... w-why so much anger... w-why so much hate... *she squeezes her legs and shivers*

    ***

    Reina: Kara I... *she closes her eyes for a moment, looking away* I still believe things could have gone different... *she kneels down, resting a hand on Briana's back speaking something in a language she can't understand, and the translator can't pick up. The words sound almost like a prayer, sweet and sorrow mixed with them. She may not understand them directly but she can feel their meaning.* May you rest in pease Seras. I didn't know you... But I could feel the pain of a mother from you. *she looks up at Kara* What next?

    Alexis: I'll keep her safe. *She hurries over and hugs Kate tightly, wrapping her fluffy fox tail around her protectively*

    *Behind kara about 10 feet out, a portal opens on the floor, Magnus Ominously rising from it as if he were crouched down in it, standing up and stepping out of it, a look of emotional pain and Righteous fury on his face*

    Magnus: I.... I can't believe this.... Why?! explain yourself!! NOW!! *He takes up a stance, looking like he's ready to throw a punch but his arms are still at his sides*

    Magnus: that doesn't give you the right to murder her! Damn you! Look at what you did? Did you think about everyone else? How selfish your actions were right now!

    *from out of the portal, emerges Nick(?) Dressed in a white coat, a brown vest, a blue button up shirt with the collar undone, jeans and old black sneakers with three white stripes on the side*

    Other universe Nick: your son is a hell of a lot smarter than you. Revenge is a fools game and you just fell for it, hook, line, and sinker.
