1st Diagnostic - Action/Video

[Action House 1]

[After having been dumped in Jade's workshop, and getting directions from the colonel himself, the occupants of house 1 might notice a stranger in New Feather clothes passing through. If no one notices or bothers to stop her, she will just walk out the front door in hopes of keeping as much of her dignity intact as possible.

After that B'Elanna goes to the clothing shop, finds her uniform, changes, then seats herself on a bench outside to look over her journal. Which she soon discovers is a communication device.]

I'm looking for tools. Where can I find some?

[Her stomach also decides to take this moment to speak.]

And I hope there's something decent to eat around here.

[Something he recognizes, a symbol at least.]

Are you with Starfleet then? And what sort of device is that?

In a manner of speaking. It's a combadge, used for communication.

Well. [He holds up a commlink of his own, a black tube the size of his fingernail.]

These don't work here, I'm afraid. There's no relay system in place.

[Frown.]

I know that.

If I had another combadge you could communicate between them but that's not the point.

Theoretically, you might be able to rewire it to a frequency my commlink could connect to, like a walkie-talkie. But I've never tried it before.

May I ask your name?

That's possible. I would have to take a look.

B'Elanna Torres. Yours?

Luke, Luke Skywalker. A pleasure, Ms. Torres.

[He even smiles.]

Are you a science officer like Spock? Or does the color of your uniform mean something different?

I'm an engineer. I take it you're not from our... reality.

[Yet he seemed to know about Starfleet a little. Probably from Spock since it seems he knows him.]

That's right. I'm from a different reality, and a different galaxy as well.

Really...

[Not only was this a little mind boggling about how so many people from different realities and galaxies have congregated in the same place but it's quite interesting.]

Yes. Assuming your home galaxy is the same as the crew of the Enterprise. My galaxy has no Earth.

You have the technology to travel across your entire galaxy?

Easily, yes. A trip from the Core Worlds to the Outer Rim takes a week at most. Maybe only hours if the Hyperspace lane is right.

[She is flabbergasted.]

How?

Hyperspace. Essentially a Hyperdrive opens a way into Hyperspace, a sort of sublayer of our reality. We slip through a sort of subspace at many thousands of times the speed of light.

I had thought your...Warp Drives operated in a similar fashion?

It does. But even at our fastest speeds it would take decades to get from one end of our galaxy to the other. That's actually part of my problem.

Oh? I didn't know Warp transit was so slow.

[Luke looks at something off-screen, and there's a beeping sound of sympathy.]

What's your problem, then?

[Slow? The thought is almost insulting, but it's true compared to what Luke was describing.]

I came from a ship that was taken from one end of the galaxy to the other. At top speed it will take us 70 years to get home.

Well, unfortunately you're going to be heading back to that ship when you leave this world unless something drastic changes. If that happens, I'll gladly see about procuring a hyperdrive for you.

[She's touched by his generosity. They hadn't had that offering of help the last time they encountered someone with the ability to get them home.]

If it could get us home, it would mean a lot.

That's a big if, of course. That's assuming we find a way out that allows travel between realities, you know.

I realize that, but its still something.

Right. So, what are you trying to do with that commbadge?

[There's a pause.]

It might be better to show you.

Alright. Where would you like me to meet you? Or is it something I could see through the network?
