{Klingon shuttle.}

Before leaving the ship, Mira had gotten a message from Kronnelti letting her know that Q was going after Lance. She had informed the chief that Lance had been taken off the ship.

Now, they were set to go down to the planet. Mira stomach was in knots. The last time she had been on an L class planet, her visit had lasted four years. Life had been really hard then, and this brought back some really difficult memories.
They had a Romulan ship headed their way, but they could just pass them by and a rescue to complete.

“Get ready to move.” Mira told the few people that were with her. There was a flash of light. Mira was really getting sick of seeing it because it meant one of the Q's had changed something.

"Hold on to something. We are going down." the pilot called out to them.

"Son of a targ!" Mira yelled as she lost her footing and fell into one of the Haz Team members. Arms came around her, sitting her in a seat. Some of the Haz team were on this shuttle, and others were on the 2nd shuttle.

From the sound, the engine seems to have just turned off. They landed with a hard thud and skidded . Getting up, she went to the console. "We are nowhere close to where we should be."

She shook her head. Q was at it again. It was like every time they got close to their goal, they got the rug pulled out from under them. More than likely, the other shuttle was in the same perdicament.

Walker looked over at the coordinates. "That's not want we saw a few moments ago. They are making it so we can't win this test!"

"I know, Walker. We will never make it on foot in time. If the Romulans know we are here, we have already lost. "

The shuttle door started to open, but it was pitch black outside. She raised an eyebrow it was mid afternoon on the planet. Why so dark?

Walking to the door, Mira frowned what was going on.

Take the prisoner to the stand. Mira felt more than she saw both her arm grabbed, then pulled forward.

They were all in some kind of crazy courtroom. "Now, how do you plea?"

"First, I would have to hear what I am being charged with." Mira said to the group.

"First, we hear your plea, then evidence and verdict." A male voice rang out.

Mira sighed. "Then I'll go with innocent"

That seemed to make the group brake out in outrage.

"Did you or did you not refuse a Q on more than one occasion then out right refuse a Q request to give you aid. After that, I might add being put in the penalty box more than once."

Mira raised an eyebrow. What was this craziness? "His request was unwanted. If he hadn't lied and tried to trick me..."

"Just answer the question," the male voice stated.

"Each time I paid the price, so why are we really here? I have already been punished for my refusals. Once a person serves their sentence, they can't be tried again."

"A quick mind, too." A new man stepped up to the witness stand. "What if I was to give you your lost mate and his child back? Your position on DS15 as Commander again?"

Mira froze, then started to frown. "You don't have the power to bring people back from the dead."

"No, perhaps not, but I do have control over time. I could send you back to before your mate, and you left the base. You just need not get on the ship." He raised an eyebrow at her.

"No," Mira shook her head. "Even that would change time. It could lead to a change of events. " By all that was holy, it hurt to turn that down.

The Q raised an eyebrow. "Interesting." He watched her for amount until she looked away. "Very well bring in the next pensioner,
Lieutenant JG Tracey Walker Jr."

Walker was taken up to the witness stand. "How do you plea?"

Walker lifted his chin."innocent"

"Did you in all cowardice leave a challenge on risa?" the Q asked.
