Lieutenant Ikaia Wong - Splash Day
kabanning
((Holodeck 3, Level 10, Science and Research Section))
Keehani: “Training”. So. Tell me, what’s the purpose of your “training” program, Lieutenant?
Wong: The training? Well it's for a time travel scenario where you get stuck in a temporal rift and end up somewhere in the past. You know…. Like that crew from that deep space station around that Bajoran wormhole did that one time.
Keehani: Oh really? Computer, resume program.
The archway doors slid shut behind her as the holoprogram resumed. An angry looking woman in a blue medical uniform raced into the hall, with several security officers in tow.
CMO: There! There he is- ::Looking at Keehani:: -who are *you*?
Keehani: First Secretary Keehani Ukinix, of the Federation Diplomatic Corp. ::Hands on hips, raised eyebrow:: And you are?
Wong: ::Deadpan:: Crazy.
Apparently the holographic medical character didn’t like that. If the person could shoot fire from her eyes, Wong would have turned into ashes very quickly.
CMO: Doctor Amy Pearson. Chief Medical Officer of the USS Edmonton. Is this Klingon bothering you?
Keehani raised her hand.
Keehani: I can assure you that Lieutenant Wong is not only a Federation Citizen, ::raising finger:: raised in Hawaii on Earth I might add, but is also a Starfleet Officer.
Wong: I mean what she says is 100% true. But there's also a thing here called the temporal directive that we have to think about.
Pearson: Likely story. You really can't trust Klingons. You have no idea what Starfleet secrets he's stolen for the Empire already!
Keehani: ::Tutting, eye roll:: The 2260s sent a subspace transmission, they want their uniforms and level of intolerance back.
Wong: Oh we can send back the intolerance. But I quite like my uniform. It's comfy, breathable and anti-microbial!
Dr. Pearson shot Ikaia another glare.
Pearson: That's enough out of you! ::Glancing at the red shirts:: Security, can you deal with this…. Issue?
Keehani: ::Leaning in to Wong, giving him an elbow nudge:: I think she likes you.
Wong: I dunno. If this is her liking me, I'd hate to see what she does if she HATES me.
Already the red shirts were starting to close in. Ikaia's glances were a little more frantic.
Pearson: Don't let him distract you. He's a slippery one.
Wong: Somehow, I don't think those are terms of endearment, Ukinix.
Keehani: ::hand wave:: Oh by the four, call me Keehani. ::Gesturing with chin towards Pearson:: Look at the way she’s looking at you. Maybe you should sweet talk her.
Ikaia shot Keehani a surprised expression.
Wong: Wait what?!
Keehani: You never know. ::slightly wicked smile:: Maybe she secretly likes Klingons.
Ikaia was somewhat skeptical about the whole idea. Was she really suggesting THAT?
Wong: Do you really think that'll work?
With her hands back in her pockets, she gave Ikaia an encouraging wink before pointing her head in the direction of Pearson, suggesting he should go over.
Which he did. He preened his hair back. He tried to look as presentable as possible. Although, he was nervous about it. Being put on the spot in regards to flirting was not his strong suit.
He approached the upset hologram and gave it his best.
Wong: H-have…. Have I told you that your eyes are as dazzling as a blue dwarf? And your mind is as quick as a ah… starship going at warp 10?
Keehani couldn’t sense the hologram’s emotions because, well, it was a hologram. But the facial expression told her all she needed to know.
So did the punch to the stomach she gave Ikaia.
Ikaia doubled over and clutched his stomach. His voice now strained.
Wong: ::Strained voice:: I forgot "do no harm" has a vastly different interpretation in the 2260s….
The young Betazoid made her way over to Wong to make sure he was alright.
Keehani: Are you OK?
Wong: I'll let you know as soon as my insides stop feeling like they're being filled with lava…
Keehani: ::Inquisitively:: What happened to the holodeck safety protocols?
Pearson: What on Earth are you talking about?
Keehani: A “holodeck.” Something a backwards minded archaic simpleton like yourself wouldn’t understand.
Pearson: Are you in league with this… this animal?! Have you gone completely mad?
Wong: Miss Keehani, what are you doing?
The pain was starting to subside. It was just enough to allow him to stand up a little straighter. Although, one of his arms was still cradling his stomach.
Keehani: ::To Pearson:: Shall we find out?
She calmly turned to the four security officers that were accompanying Pearson.
Keehani: Computer. Delete ::pointing:: this character, ::pointing:: this character, ::pointing:: this character, ::pointing:: and this character.
The four red-shirts shimmered out of existence.
The holographic CMO looked around her. She had a horrified expression on her face. She had no idea what was going on. To her, it was as if a Q had whisked away her crewmates.
Pearson: What did you do to Williams, Winters, Stall and Harper?!
Ikaia's free hand reached up to his mouth in surprise.
Wong: Keehani!
Keehani: ::hands back in pockets, shrug:: I did warn you.
If Ikaia didn't know any better, he could swear that Keehani was having a lot of fun at this poor hologram's expense.
Pearson: Bring them back! They didn't deserve this!
Wong: This…. This isn't how this ga--- training program is supposed to go.
Keehani: ::Eye roll:: Oh, c’mon, Ikaia, this isn’t a training program. You just haven’t programmed it right, that’s why- ::looking at CMO:: sorry, what was your name again?
Person: Doctor Amy Pearson.
Keehani: -Amy doesn’t like you.
Pearson: That's still Doctor Pearson to you!
Wong: What? I programmed this right! I just ah…. Had a slight ah… diplomacy issue when I encountered Doctor Pearson.
Keehani: Computer. ::Holding out hand:: Water balloon, please.
A water balloon appeared in Keehani’s hand. She immediately threw it at Pearson, who was instantly drenched when it hit her in the chest.
Keehani: ::Excitedly clapping hands together:: This is fun!
His "training" program, now successfully off the rails and spiraling into madness, was no longer about escaping an old Starfleet ship. Instead it was about a water balloon fight. But he knew better than to question her on it. Questioning the boss's goofy relative wasn't going to earn him any favours. So he might as well go with the flow! He shrugged his shoulders at this point.
As for Pearson, she stood there stiff as a board in absolute shock that someone would have the audacity to do this to her!
Pearson: W…. What…. What is this?
Wong: It's called water.
Ikaia glanced up for a moment with his hand out.
Wong: Computer. Bin of water balloons. Stat.
He picked one up from the bin and tossed it at Pearson who was now starting to duck for cover.
Keehani: Response
Wong: We have her on the run! Quick, she's over right by you!
Pearson: I will make sure you get brig time, Klingon! You and your strange friend both!
Keehani: Response
Ikaia picked up a balloon. It was just a touch too far for him to just pass it to her. But maybe if he were careful, he could toss it to her without breaking it?
Wong: Miss Keehani, I have reinforcements! I hope you're good at catching it!
And with that, he tried to carefully toss her the balloon.
Keehani: Response
