The Killing Game Line-by-Line

[Athena28]

Hello, Welcome!

We recently completed the Field of Fire thread in the Deep Space Nine forum!

For anyone unfamiliar with our "game," you are asked to post only a single line (defined as one character speaking without interruption by another character) per message. You can post as often as you like, but someone else must post a line in between your posts.

Our "rule" is that if the episode has a "To Be Continued..." on the end, it is done in a single thread, but if it's just an arc of related episodes (like the Dominion Occupation Arc on DS9 or the Xindi Arc on ENT), each episode is a separate thread.

Get ready for a story, here we go!

 

[Athena28]

[Holodeck two - Klingon battle simulation]

JANEWAY: P'tahk! Prepare to meet your ancestors! This battle is yours today, but the House of Mo'kai will never yield.

 

[May 20]

(She grabs a mace from a fallen Klingon and resumes the fight. She is interrupted by an Hirogen in Klingon armor.)

KARR: Doh-cha scree! Move away, coward. I want to make this kill.

 

[mattman8907]

JANEWAY: You should have killed me when my back was turned.

 

[Orac]

Karr: I want to see the fear in your eyes.

 

[May 20]

JANEWAY: Look closely and you'll see your own destruction.

 

[CaptVader]

KARR: You are resilient prey.

 

[May 20]

JANEWAY: I'm no one's prey.

 

[Athena28]

KARR: You are mine, now and after death. Sickbay, this is Holodeck 2. Janeway requires medical assistance.

 

[May 20]

[Sickbay]

(Voyager is surrounded by Hirogen vessels. Janeway now looks human on the biobed. An Hirogen is working in Sickbay.)
MEDIC: She'll survive.

 

[Orac]

Karr: What about her neural interface?

 

[Oddish]

(The medic scans a Y shaped scar below Janeway's jawline.)

MEDIC: "Stable."

 

[May 20]

KARR: Are you sure? There were times when she seemed aware of who she is.

 

[Orac]

Medic: Impossible. I was monitoring the crew during the entire simulation. She believes she's whoever we programme her to be. Shall I return her to the Klingon simulation?

 

[May 20]

KARR: No. Bring her to Holodeck one. I've found another program I want to try. A conflict that took place on her own planet. It should prove stimulating.

 

[CaptVader]

[Le Coeur de Lion]

(A French café during World War 2. Mademoiselle de Neuf is singing It Can't Be Wrong to piano accompaniment.)

SEVEN: Wrong, would it be wrong to kiss? Seeing I feel like this, would it be wrong to try? Wrong, would it be wrong to stay, here in your arms this way, under this starry sky? If it is wrong…

 

[Oddish]

(Tuvok is the bartender in a white jacket, and the owner wears a white three piece man's suit à la Marlene Dietrich as she greets her Nazi and French customers. She moves amongst the tables.)

JANEWAY: "Welcome to Le Coeur de Lion. I'm Katrine. The first round is with my compliments, on one condition. You leave the war outside. More escargot for table nine. Jacques, no lady tonight? Oh, we'll have to see what we can do about that."

(She sits at a table.)

JANEWAY: "Forgive my neglecting you. Now, where were we? Ah, yes, my latest adventure in Paris."

(She looks over to the bar and sees Tuvok nod towards the entrance. Two Hirogen Nazi officers are entering.)

JANEWAY: "I'm afraid I'll have to neglect you again. Excuse me."

(She goes to the bar.)

 

[Athena28]

TUVOK: That's him.

 

[CaptVader]

JANEWAY: Our new Kommandant?

 

[mattman8907]

TUVOK: British intelligence believes he's been sent here to oversee the occupation of the city.
