Spock stands at his station, staring into his view-port. Sighing softly to myself as I spin around in a chair next to Uhura, she looks over to me with a smile on her face before returning to her work. Spock glances at me for a moment before returning to his duty's.

Kirk finally breaks the boring bout of silence.  "Alex.. Apparently after that fiasco the other day. Mr. Spock here sent a formal request to name the species of insect that stung you. He named it the 'Culus Vespa' it's latin and it translates to.. Anus Wasp or Butt Wasp." Kirk smirks as he looks over to Spock, proud to see his friend do something like this.

"Seriously? Awesome!! Thanks ash- I mean. Mr. Spock." Catching myself before I say something unformal on the bridge. Sending good thoughts and emotions through our bond.

"It was of no importance. You were the first to discover the species, therefore it is your honor to name it. I just went through the proper channels to solidify the name in StarFleet's database." Spock talks nonchalant about it, continuing to do his work.. but I feel that he's happy through our bond.

"What the? Who the hell are you!?!" Jim yells out in alarm, turning quickly in my seat I see him pointing at a man, reaching for his phaser. A man stands in front of the view screen, who wasn't there a second ago.

"Hmph.. Humans.. Alex-Q. You are to report to the Continuum at once." The man stands with his arms behind his back, staring at me looking as if he's annoyed. Chekov and Sulu both glance at each other for a moment.

"W-what? Why?" Gripping the bottom of my seat, attempting to ground myself as my heart begins to race in my chest.

The unknown Q rolls his eyes. "If you do not cooperate with my request. I am allowed by the Continuum to use force." Sulu grabs his phaser raising it into he air pointing it at Q, it flings out of his hand disintegrating in the air. The Q grits his teeth in anger. The ship begins to shake violently around us, the Q arches his brow at me. Waiting for my response before he begins to tear the ship apart panel by panel.

"Fine! Fine! I'll go! Just don't hurt anyone!" I hold out my hands placatingly, the shaking stops abruptly as the Q smiles at me.

"There, now that wasn't so hard now was it? Alex-Q." The Q teleports across the room grabbing my arm firmly in his hand, looking to Spock for one more second-  I'm ripped away... again..

- Q Continuum -

In the blink of an eye, I'm no longer on the Enterprise.. but in the middle of a black empty void.. Similar to the one that DadQ put me in when he gave me a 'timeout'..

Looking around frantically with confusion, reality warps around me turning into a log cabin setting. My father appears sitting down next to me, another Q follows suite looking like an elderly man whom resembles Santa. The Q who took me here stands in the corner of the room.

"W-why am I here?" Looking at my dad then to the other unknown Q sitting across from us.

"Greetings AlexQ. I am Q (Known now as GQ, Grandpa Q), and as to the reason you were brought here.. In afraid you must make a vital decision child.. you must choose." Crossing his right leg over his left as he sits back in his seat, stroking his light gray beard.

"Choose? Choose what?" What the fuck is this guy on about? I'm completely and utterly confused at what he means.

"You must choose to either live the life as a mortal human, or be a Q." A tea cup materializes in his hands, sipping it slowly he sets it down on the saucer as he looks to me.
