Anise looked around a bit as if she didn't know who had whispered to her until her eyes met hers. Once realizing it was Yuna, she smiled a little bit. Even then she noticed a little bit of concern, trepidation in her mannerisms. She was curious as to where the concern was coming from but she didn't ask
Trepidation toward her? she thought This really peaked her interest as She didn't meet Shelaas until she had came aboard, the second time. The First time, she thought she had seen Shelaas at Tactical before she was taken from the ship by R'ufral
She tried to shake off the empathic vibrations she got from Shelaas and return her attention to her control board. Her head snapped back around as she received the telepathic message from her, even though it was weak, she could tell where it was coming from, a look of surprise on her facial features. She was unaware that Trill had telepathic capabilities but it was clear that Anise has
Just then, an intense wave of fear struck against her empathic senses and she grabbed her console to keep from staggering. Her surprise was replaced by concern as she could almost place that fear. She felt the same fear when she was aboard R'ufral's ship for the first few hours, or days, she didn't know. When she was strapped in the chair, nude, and thinking she could have been used as a breeding guinea pig.
She smiled back at Anise, trying to comfort her. She sent a message back to her, with little force behind it, as not to overwhelm her ~ I am here for you if you wish to talk ~

Her eyes would close for a moment as the response came, and tears tried to break free from her eyes. She had to rapidly blink to keep them from coming out, not wanting to get emotional on the bridge, especially when on duty.
She would likewise nod slowly at that, understanding fully.
~...purple-skin......himself into my mind.......hurt me.......~
As her telepathic abilities were very weak, coupled with her fears, she couldn't quite think clearly as to what to say, much less be able to project.
She finally had to wipe the tears away as she couldn't hold them back any longer, and hope nobody else saw that. She had also stopped humming the tune on her mind.

Her heart went out to Shelaas as he could feel the emotion welling up inside her, trying to break free. She did her best to stamp it down as she didn't want to get emotional on the bridge. She didn't blame her. Yuna had to fight back tears herself as she remembered her experiences over on the other ship
She could only nod in understanding as Anise sporadically told her that R'ufral forced himself into her mind. He forced himself into her mind as well until he had mentally slapped him for that, telling him it was wrong to force yourself into ones mind. Surprisingly, he had listened and stopped trying to enter her mind without permission
She fought the urge to go over and take her into her arms. As they were still on the bridge, that would not have been appropriate. Until this time, she thought she was the only one that was somewhat traumatized by the experience. Now, she knew there was another that could relate and she could talk about what happened and she would understand what she went through ~ I .. understand and I .. am sorry, Anise ~ She projected back to her as she rubbed her eyes to clear the tears
She sniffled slightly, trying to clear her own tears and try to push the memories back behind her

Having to put up yet another fight, like she had with that Ferengi troll, she fought to hold her emotions at bay again, and then she made the decision to get up and head for the turbolift, and as she walked past Yuna, she would pat her arm, and then step in when the doors opened.
She didn't even have the voice left to tell the computer her destination, so she manually keyed it in, to go to her own quarters. She knew she needed to get a grip on her emotions before they broke loose fully. If that happened, then her shipmates would about be walking on eggshells around her until she could get herself sorted out again.

She closed her eyes and focused to school her emotions and force the negative ones to the back of her psyche. She almost didn't feel Anise's hand pat her arm as she went by but it did register. She turned and looked at Anise as she entered the TL, her emotions still in turmoil
She wanted to follow the Trill woman, to tell her everything will be alright, to help her through the negative emotions that plague her but then she told herself that she needed time alone, to shed the tears she fought so hard to keep back
She sighed to herself, thinking that when we reach Starbase 140, she would seek Anise out and talk to her, woman to woman

Before the lift could reach Deck 3 for her quarters, she stopped the lift and changed the route for the holodeck. Given the option of crying her eyes out into her pillow or doing something to let her emotions be vented in a more productive fashion, she chose the latter.
When the doors opened at Deck 3, Section 4-C, she went to the holodeck controls and keyed in the request to bring up the main directory. From there, she would narrow the selection down to her own personal programs, and then picked her calisthenics progarm, which has served her so well to help her vent her more volatile emotions. She would then set the program on a normal level for her, level-3, leaving the safety program on.
She would then hear the computer beep at her.
"Program complete. Enter when ready."
Stepping through the doorway that opened, she would approach the rack of weapons and grab a Klingon bat'leth, and was ready for a fight.
As her opponent came to face her, she braced and was ready to fight. The alien that approached her had a mace weapon and swung at her with what would've been a serious hit. She jumped to the side and deflected it with the bat'leth and went on an offensive that reflected her emotional state at that time.

Jearing the door chimes she rises from her seat, and straightens her Uniform.
Enter.
Seeing Teshurr, she steps around her desk, and approaches. Her epression smooth, and somewhat bland.
Seems our worse fears are true Teshurr. She hands him the PADD. Seems that the energy that controls those ships of the Zentradi, is Omega. Some how they have the technology to convert living protein into a power source that could cripple the federation.

Before entering the Captain RR, Teshurr turn to Lt. Love.
Very good Lt....I will inform the Captain...By the way...good work today and pass that to the crew...you'll all did an outstanding job today..Carry on.
Teshurr then walks into the RR.
Seems that the energy that controls those ships of the Zentradi, is Omega. Some how they have the technology to convert living protein into a power source that could cripple the federation.
Teshurr takes the padd from her and just shakes his head.
I truly don't think the Admiral going to like this....Do you know if she will be back at SB 140 by the time we get back?

As she continues to press the attack on her holographic opponent, she narrowly misses getting hit by a few attacks. With that realization coupled with her emotions, the dam bursts and she violently kicks her opponent when he gets too close, and she proceeds to finish him off with a swing of the bat'leth to the head. Rather than it becoming gory, her opponent vanishes as she makes the death blow.
Breathing very hard, she staggers backward a bit, and looks upward.
"Computer, freeze program....."
She takes a seat on a nearby rock and sets the bat'leth down, and puts her hands to her face and wipes the sweat from her brow, and also wipes her tears away as she cries, having needed to get that emotional release.

She listened as Vicky went over to the commander while he waited to enter the Captain's ready room and she reported that Lt Redman reporting that all repairs are complete, the Constitution had been released and ETA for Star base 140 is 3 hours. She nodded a bit and looked down at her control board, seeing nothing on sensors, She hadn't seen anything on sensors for a good couple hours now
Her mind kept drifting to Anise, how fearful she felt towards her and toward R'ufral and how she had nearly completely crumbled on the bridge, she looked like she needed a friend, a companion's shoulder to cry on. When she left, she got the impression she would go to her quarters and let it all out
Her mind reached out to go to Anise quarters to check on her as it had been about 30 minutes since she left the bridge. To her surprise, she was not in her quarters. She looked around and eventually found her in the holodeck, taking her frustrations and her emotions out on a holodeck opponent. She telepathically arrived in time to see her finish her opponent off and then the emotional dam broke and the tears came
She muttered an oath under her breath and tapped a key to call the Assistant Tac Officer and she came within a few minutes. Once her relief got there,, she turned and entered the TL "Deck 3" she told the Computer
A minute later, she exited the TL and walked down to section 4-C and stopped at the Holodeck doors "Computer, Request entrance, Lt Yuna Tremayne, Security protocol Yuna Alpha Tango One three six" The computer recognized her code and the doors slid open. She walked in to find Anise sitting on a holographic rock, weeping. Her heart went out to her and she approached and outstretched her arms to her, letting Anise know that she was there for her

She barely heard the holodeck doors open and close again as she kept her hands over her face crying. Hearing footsteps, she tried again to get herself to stop crying, and would slowly move her hands from her face, revealing that her face was red from crying, her eye looking rather puffy, and because of her skin being red, her spots looked a little bit darker.
As she saw who it was, she knew she was in no shape to be able to stand, and she slowly moved her arms out toward Yuna, unable to speak at the moment.

As she walked closer, she could see that her hands were over her face, clearly crying "Everythings going to be all right, Anise. The Zentrati are gone" and hopefully never coming back she thought
She saw her hands slowly lower from her face. She looked at her with a red face and puffy eyes. She noted that her spots looked a bit darker
Anise continued to sit there, as if she didnt have the strength to stand. She watched as Anise outsretched her arms to her and she didn't hesitate. She closed the gap and entered her arms, closing her own arms around the Trill woman "I am here, Anise, as a freind" She whispered "Go ahead and cry.. I will.. cry.. " She sniffled and she could feel the emotions and the fear welling up and this time, she let it, spilling forth. She wept opening in Anise's arms, knowing full well she went though most of the same experiance she had

Almost like a child who had been horribly scared or was in great pain, she let out her crying all over again, wrapping her arms around Yuna, burying her face into her shoulder. She wasn't sure if that action from their Zentradi adversary-turned-guest was acceptable or whether it could be called a violation, especially as it wasn't wanted by her, much less anticipated.
The pain that she had gone through could be felt in the fact that she was shaking a little bit. The agonizing headache she experienced from the intensity and forcefulness of his telepathy had really hurt her, and had been told it was life-threatening. At the same time, it showed her that she had some telepathic abilities, but was also extremely vulnerable, and could not defend against that, despite her efforts to do so.
She greatly feared being hurt again in that manner, especially by anyone she was trying to protect.
Had she not have been ordered to escort the clone, and been alone with him, she would've likely shot him for what he'd done to her, without hesitation.
With all the emotions associated with all of that trauma, she could no longer hold back the tears and the crying, as the memories flooded through her, along with what she had felt.

She could feel Anise shake a little in her crying and she started to shake too but a little more forcefully as her body tried to rid itself of the negative emotions, Yuna's crying was more quieter, she just shook as the tears streamed down her face.
The memories came too. She remembered seeing the telepathic image of the Zentrati ship just before it attacked, the pain she felt when she bounced off the TL wall. The ship was hit again and she stumbled out of the TL, onto the bridge and that was where she had thought she saw Anise. From what she remembered, she saw a surprised expression from Anise as she took the tumble and hit her head on the deck before she passed out
When she came too, she realizes she was sitting in a cold chair in a room all by herself. She tried to reach out with her mind to contact anyone from the ship but she got R'ufral instead, whom told her the reason for her being there was to be his mate, which sent another jolt of fear through her
She told him she was not interested and tried to trick him into thinking that she and Captain Greene were an item to show him that she wasn't interested
From the chair, she was placed in a small room and was clothed in this Armor that weighed a ton and was too heavy for her feminine frame. She told R'ufral that she wanted her own uniform back but he did not return it
"R'ufral came again and said she was to be her mate and she told him no then he started telling her stories of how he and his brothers forced themselves on other women and made them carry their child. A couple of those women committed suicide. Another jolt of fear escaped her
Through much discussion, she finally convinced him to see women as equals, not just as sexual objects and breeding factories.
After a few minutes, her shaking subsided until she quit shaking altogether, She just held Anise in her arm and let her cry
