Rear Admiral Jake Yamaguchi slowly blinked his eyes as he slowly felt himself wake, like a deep sea swimmer rising towards the surface as he slowly expelled the air in his lungs before inhaling deeply, his eyes then flickered open, his pupils suddenly shrank as they processed the light entering his eyes.

Lieutenant Sokanon blinked her large eyes as she regarded the Admiral as he woke up. "Computer, dim the lights by sixty percent." she intoned softly.

The lights dimmed as if a wave of cloud washed across the room, as Jake moaned softly. "Mm.... Who's there...?" he asked softly

"Lieutenant Sokanon..." came the response.

"Mmm.." he turned as he regarded the Caitian officer his wife had spoken off several times as he regarded her, a measure of hatred coming to him before he was able to suppress it, where had that come from?. he asked himself. 'Jake... your not in danger here.' he reassured himself as he slowly sat up. "Lieutenant?"

"You feeling alright sir?" Sokanon inquired.

"I... I think so... I'm not sure... to be honest.." Jake admitted. "I feel... strange."

"How so sir?" Sokanon peered closer with her large feline eyes as she quickly realized that she could see he was anything but alright, he was angry, more then she had ever heard of him to be. "Sir... Its going to be-"

"Silence!" he roared at the top of his lungs. "Its not alright.. I'm not even close to being alright..." he paused. "What the fuck did you people do to me!" as his strength suddenly gave out but that was because he overexerted himself rather then her sedating him as she shrank back in fear. "Admiral.. Please... you must rest, you have been through a terrible ordeal."

"Rest... I'll rest when I'm able to sleep in my own bed." he hissed back at her, anger tinging his words.

"Sir.. please... don't overdo it.!" Sokanon protested, before she turned and went over to the door. "Guys. I need Captain Yamagu-Yaaahhh!" as she found herself being grabbed from behind and pulled into the Admirals less then gentle embrace before he all but threw her onto the bed where he had been lying not minutes earlier.

She landed in a huff, as she shook her head to clear it of the fog that had seemed to appear as if a star had evaporated an ocean nearby and it was seeping into her brain.

Meanwhile Torilla Unal who was in sickbay for her paperwork and the like heard the commotion as she turned and moved in to assist, she had not expected to see the Caitian Lieutenant tending to this version of her now thankfully dead partner, go flying as Jake came out of the sickbay room, wearing not much as he looked at her, hate clouding his eyes as she mentally prepared himself.

Jake came at her and threw his best right hook at her, she parried it as she defended herself. "Jake... focus!" Unal commented. "This isn't you... You are better then this!"

"You!" Jake snarled at her. "You did this!"

"No. This was not my doing... Yes I was involved. but it-" was as far as she got before Jake hooked her leg with his and down she went with him driving his fist hurtling into the deck, she moved her face at the last second before she kicked him in the head with her armored boots.

Jake rolled to the side as he hopped back to his feet, while she likewise climbed back to her feet as two medics jumped on him, one of them administered a sedative as Jake effortlessly threw one of them off of him before turning his attention to the smaller of the two, a young Bajoran woman who growled. "Come then.." the smaller Bajoran woman snarled at Jake

Unal glared evilly at her, she had just undone all of her work with one asinine statement. "You idiot!" she said under her breathe.

"Stand down..." Unal said to Jake. "This does not need to happen Admiral.."

"After what you did to me!" Jake growled softly. "You got some nerve making demands of me!" as he shook his head, the sedative was now going to work as the Bajoran woman made her move, trouble was the Admiral was ready and she got a fist to her face as Unal stepped in and with almost no effort, she gently placed her fingers on the pressure points around the side of his neck as she dealt with him calmly and quickly, she caught him before she gently lowered him to the deck. "Okay guys, Shows over!"

The Bajoran spat. "You could have dealt with him."

"You deserved that... He would have calmed down had you not provoked him." Unal growled

"You can't know that.." The Bajoran woman growled back.

"Oh really!" Unal responded with a smile. "You'll find that I do."

Sokanon emerged from the recovery room a moment earlier as she came over to where the Admiral lay. "Alright, that's enough, knock it off you two... Help me with him please.."

Unal nodded as she gently reached down and with a grace she sure was not feeling, she assisted the Caitian medical officer in hauling the Admiral to his feet, before the two of them hauled him back into the recovery room. "What happened to him?" Sokanon asked.

"I transferred some of my memories to him... memories of a dark... and abusive nature... his counterpart in what used to be my home reality... was a monster.." Unal explained softly. "He liked to abuse the women, especially those who were enlisted or a lower rank then he was... so he could indulge his... pleasures on them..."

Sokanon sniffed softly. "Thats horrible."

"I know." Unal explained as she gently picked up Jake and gently set him on the bed. "I fear I have done great harm to him... "

Sokanon blinked her large eyes as she regarded the woman who looked exactly like the old first officer before she had been promoted to her own command. Her ears rotated towards the larger woman "How so?" she inquired.

"Because I imprinted my Jake onto your Jake..." Unal responded with a deep sigh. "I fear I have done grievous harm."
