serina: im not completely sure how many..... unfortunately im not knowledgeable in that area, i just know how to do the ritual for it..... the only one i can think of with the knowlage is valendria....

kate: oooh that does sound good.
"The rains have ceased and we are graced with another beautiful day. but you are not here to see it."
Other universe Nick: I'm going to talk to her then. The sooner we can get it done, the sooner we can have someone slap sense into everyone... hopefully that person can be seras if we bring her back.
Briana: *continues sobbing until she suddenly goes limp*
************
Nick: give it a shot. You wanna have them Las Vegas Style? That means deep fried.
"We have no tomorrow, but there's still hope for the future. In our struggle to survive the present, we push the future farther away. Will I see it in my lifetime? Probably not.

Krystal: *sigh* Wore herself out.
Feel kinda useless right now. And I just stumbled into that mess thinking Matt was gonna prank someone...
I can't take it anymore! Could everyone just chill out for two seconds before something CRAZY happens again?!

Other Univers Nick: You're going through grief... you lost someone close to you, so its understandable you can't be... if need be I'll be that person, Serina, I promise. *heads out of the holodeck towards the brig*
*********
Nick: i mean thats how Las Vegas style is supposed to be done. Heck I'll try it. I trained under some very impressive Itamae in my time. So I can appreciate it and give you any tips

Zach: Nick there's a very big difference between Deep Frying something, and Frying it Tempura style. Mostly in how its breaded. *he starts to get up and wash his hands off*
***
*T'Lera feels ignored, looking down into her glass*
Reina: bri? *She sets her down* Uh... are you alright?
Nick: *facepalms* i meant the roll is meant to be deep fried Tempura style. Not any other style. Tempura is deep fried.... deep frying as in the act of frying it not the breading... look, do it. I wanna see how you do it. I'm excited. I love cooking. I can teach what I know if anyone is interested.
**********
Other Universe Nick: *continues to walk, entering the brig and walking over to the cell kara is in* I'm sorry for not speaking out against you being brutalized... it shames the starfleet officer I was... i didn't want to provoke anyone else nor see them hurt.

Briana-Keeva: she is not alright... not alright at all..... wow, feels weird doing this.... i think this is only my second or third time. I just sit around and experience... not take control..
"We have no tomorrow, but there's still hope for the future. In our struggle to survive the present, we push the future farther away. Will I see it in my lifetime? Probably not.

Zach: Not quite. Tempura batter is very hard to get right, its not the same as what you use to fry chicken. Where can I get all the supplies for the sushi?
***
Reina: oh is this a symbiote thing?
T'Lera: Well I'm from around 150 or so years in the past, I don't remember the exact amount, I got teleported to the future because of some b*tch of a klingon, then my crew and I captured by elachi, experimented on, tortured, I watched most of my friends die. I was abused and turned into this... *She points at her skin* Temporal Investigations told me I was turned into a hybrid of Vulcan and Undine by their DNA experiments. I Normally take injections to suppress my undine bits but... I forgot about them. When I first got here Briana and Kara were the only people who were giving me much mind, they become my friends and we spent a lot of time together. They're important to me and they were helping me explore my emotions since I find my vulcan meditation unable to suppress them anymore. I don't know much about Seras, or what happened here. *She looks down* I felt incredible pain, anger sorrow, I couldn't handle it.
Nick:.... i am a chef... i literly know what I'm talking about. A las vegas roll is typically deep fried in tempura batter.... look drop it. Use the replicator for what you need. I would recommend the sockeye salmon but that's just my preference. Use what you want. All the replicator patterns for the meat were all scanned in by me using the highest of quality.
*********
Briana-Keeva: Basically! I'm Keeva, Briana's symbiot. And she..... she is not in a good state... she can still smell traces of the blood... she cant tell who's is who but she can tell its blood.... shes scared... i don't know what to do...
"We have no tomorrow, but there's still hope for the future. In our struggle to survive the present, we push the future farther away. Will I see it in my lifetime? Probably not.

kara: *sits half way leaned against the wall, her arm up to her shoulder is gone and from her knees down her legs are also missing. she sits there unmoving and silent.*
******
serina: well.... seras and valendria have had a complicated relationship for a very long time tho its not my place to get into it.....
******
kate: *waits excitedly*
"The rains have ceased and we are graced with another beautiful day. but you are not here to see it."
Other Universe Nick: tell me... how many souls not like yours or Serina's would it take to bring seras back? I have a lead but I need to know how many. If you want to save her this is your chance... serina said you know about sacrifices so please tell me... *gets on his knees in front of the cell* i am begging you. She deserves better... you deserve better....
"We have no tomorrow, but there's still hope for the future. In our struggle to survive the present, we push the future farther away. Will I see it in my lifetime? Probably not.

T'Lera: You don't have to go in depth... but can you atleast give me some idea of why this happened? My mind wasn't able to handle all this suffering.
***
Zach: Sorry, I misunderstood you. I was thinking of making a couple of sweet potato rolls, but we need unagi sauce for that. *he starts replicating a few different types of fish, smoked salmon, tilapia, crab, and more, not too much but enough for him to begin preparing them for the sushi*
kara: *looks up as her wounds start to slowly regenerate.* do you even realize what you're asking? breaking the natural order of things isnt something done lightly or with out heavy consequence, especially when it comes to reviving some one of seras' caliber..... i want her back more then anyone but this is a very dangerous route you're walking..... who even gave you the idea?
******
serina: well... long story short seras is valendrias mother, val was abandoned by her when she was a kid and she holds a lot of resentment towards her, she grew up a bitter and hate full woman and went on a genocidal rampage burning every world she touched. finally seras intervened but she was only there to put a stop to her and not try and fix their relationship, they fought seras killed her own daughter then fast forward a very long time where jakara is born, im sure you met her, tall muscular blonde, that was valendria reincarnated but valendria was still there locked inside of jakaras mind and the long years of solitude had only made her even more hateful and angry at everything. and now we have present day where valendria is fully in control and the two reunite and in a a few seconds unleashes hundreds of trillions of years of pent up anger, pain and sadness in a single blow killing my sister...... and thats probably what you felt.... *she starts chugging a bottle of vodka.*
"The rains have ceased and we are graced with another beautiful day. but you are not here to see it."
T'Lera: I thought Kara... Valendria was supposed to be changed. She's been... nice since since took over again, just wanting a chance to liver her life and show she changed but... I guess she still held onto that anger after all this time. *she chugs some romulan ale* Its bad enough dealing with my own emotions... my hybrid body makes me more susceptible to things... I guess because of my psionics and their strong emotions I felt what they felt. Especially since the holodeck is pretty close to my quarters.
***
Reina: Well there's Seras' blood and Kara's blood. How much do you know of what happened?
Other Universe Nick: Serina did... what kind of cost are we talking? How many? Tell me... please. What consequences? We break the natural order of things every day we wake up. The natural order is chaos and every day we wake up and make order. Show compassion. Help people.... something being the natural order doesn't mean it should stand...
********
Briana-Keeva: I'm not sure... its hard to... hard to think Kara's blood was there... seras... why didnt zan stop kara... just... blocking that out for now.... i wish I had more wisdom to draw on like other Symbiots but... Briana is my first host...
"We have no tomorrow, but there's still hope for the future. In our struggle to survive the present, we push the future farther away. Will I see it in my lifetime? Probably not. Which means there's no time to waste. Someday the world will no longer need us. No need for the gun, or the hand to pull the trigger." -Punished Snake
kara: *sighs as she sits up.* thats all nice and philosophical but i was referring to the natural order of life and death, as much as i care about serina at the end of the day she is a meat head.... and i fully deserved that as* whooping.... i killed my own mother for f*ck sake, least shes treating me like the sh*t stain i am.... while you're just a star eyed fool grasping at something you dont understand, the cost is greater then anything you can think of i can assure you. im sure you can figure it out on your own if you really think about it. this is seras we're talking about, how many do you think would be equivalent to her soul? a few hundred? thousands maybe? a planetary populations worth? not even the combined population of all of the member worlds of the united federation of planets would be enough, hell the whole damn milkey way wouldnt even cut it. i know she means well but serina shouldnt give anyone this false hope.....
"The rains have ceased and we are graced with another beautiful day. but you are not here to see it."
Other Universe Nick: Damn you! *stands up* There has to be something. Am I gonna have to fight hell itself to get her back? Magnus already wants to! In less than 30 seconds you drastically changed so many lives for the worse... it can all go away if we bring her back. Why can't anything just stay normal. *slams his head into a wall*
"We have no tomorrow, but there's still hope for the future. In our struggle to survive the present, we push the future farther away. Will I see it in my lifetime? Probably not.

kara: yes because punching demons will bring her back from the dead.... i know i was a selfish idiot.... i gave into my anger when i should have let go of it and now everyone is suffering from my f*ck up...... even if by some miracle we bring her back none of this will go away. i still killed her and that didnt change.
"The rains have ceased and we are graced with another beautiful day. but you are not here to see it."
Other Universe Nick: she would at least slap sense into everyone. She would slap sense into me and call me an idiot for going to any length to get her back and there's nothing I could want more right now because the world is a better place with her in it.... she must have just gave up and let you kill her... it was from the front based on what I saw of the wounds... what did she give you a tearful goodbye as she died and tell you she loves you?.... she was a good woman, Kara... she'd forgive you if you were still here... after everything you've been through... you're still a person... you got upset over being wrong and made a mistake... if it could be undone... you can't take back what you did but you can work towards that never happening again...

Briana-Keeva: Zan is Kara's Symbiot... I don't think Briana is gonna be okay... shes in a pretty dark place... she blames herself because she wanted to work things out with them... see them happy... *sighs*

Kara: I literally just did that! Are you also willing to throw your life away on this pointless persuit too? Fighting thru hell won’t get you anywhere and grasping at every possibility is just as fruitless.... I wouldn’t say that she gave up, she was testing me... and I failed miserably..... but there was peace in here eyes as she died... and she faced me full well knowing she could die..... I do realize the full weight of my actions. I can never take them back and god knows I want to. Briana is basically just gone... I doubt she’ll recover from this and im vilified by everyone that I care about.... but there’s nowhere but forward to move. I’ll sit here until some one decides to sentence me with something.
******
Serina: one of my Nieces is a doctor and geneticist and a powerful psionic. She’s half aenar and uses her psionic ability to see since she’s blind due to her aenar side. I figure she could help you in a way.

*closes her eyes for a moment*
Krystal Ijoula: Yea... I know Krystal...
Um... Hi. I'm Ijoula. Krystal's symbiote, and... I know how you feel. I may have had a lot of hosts... but Krystal was the first where I wasn't just an observer.
I... wish I could give you some advice but... over 20 hosts and I'm honestly at a loss on this one.

My daughter deserves to be happy damn it! and you do too when you can actually get your head on straight. And its not about just Bri. It's serina, its everyone! I will do whatever I have to! Call it throwing away my life. I call it living with purpose. You can either point me in the right direction or keep your mouth shut on it.

Krystal Ijoula: No you haven't. I'm just speaking from my perspective. You're a lot younger than I am, but age doesn't always mean experience in everything. Sometimes... the older one gets, the more set in their ways they become. Means some of those who are older are more resistant to change.
