The flash of light faded and just like that, they were there. His eyes went wide, "wow," all around them walked aliens and robots of all sizes.

The corner of his eyes picked up movement, he turned and was rendered speechless, through the large observation windows they could see a large ship docking into the station.

He turned to Nyota smiling, "you made it Nyota, we both did." When he had heard his friend's dream of seeing space he had jumped at the chance to see it come true.

Nyota's jaw dropped moment she was teleported into the space station. It was almost everything that she would have ever thought of real bustling space station would look like. She felt as if she were in a dream as she cupped her hand over her mouth to try to hide her amazment but the look on her face gave it all away.

"Ohmygodohmygodohmygod!" she mutters quietly to herself as she took a few paces further inside the station.

She started to hyperventilate, then started laugh... she had no idea why the hell she was laughing but she could help herself.

"Hee hee ha ha hahahahaHAHAHAHABAWHAAHAHAHAAHHAH! I'M IN SPACE! I'M IN FUCKING SPACE YOU NERDS!" she loudly announced to the residents of station, some of them giving her odd looks but most of them choose to ignore. Nyota didn't care though... she was in SPACE!

Her eyes darted for the nearest window and bolted her way to the window to look at the vast canvas that is space interspersed with pinpricks of light that pierce through the veil.

"YOU HEAR THAT LINDSEY MCKENSY! I am in fucking space you fat cow!" yelled Nyota into window.

She then presses both her hand and face onto the glass, her warm breath fogging up the cool glass. She had all but forgotten about her company who brought her along in the first place.

He smiled and chuckled at his friend, he was to have brought her up here, he stepped beside, and looked out at the sea of stars, even the Shadow was silent, as if this was new to the entity as well. He nudged Nyota a bit with his elbow, "welcome to space Nyota...the final frontier."

He looked back to the stars, his smile never leaving his face, "incredible isnt it?......I.......I never even dreamed I'd ever be in space." He watched as that ship finished docking into the station.

He suddenly remembered something, he stepped to Nyota and taking her hand, he placed a small device in her hand, "this is a translator, put it in your pocket, it'll let us talk to the aliens." He smiled, "it'd be a little hard exploring this place if no one understands us."

He looked to her eyes, "thank you for coming with me."

Nyota had half forgotten who she was and where she was when that small little nudge brought her back to reality.

"Wha- oh... hahaha! Yeah... sure thing dork." spoke Nyota who still appeared starstruck.

"Incrediable?! Incrediable doesn't begin to DESCRIBE it! You might not have dreamed of it it but I certainly have." remarked Nyota as she looked out throught the window once more.

"Seriously... like... half of them involve space somehow. Like... dreams of me flying thought space... walking on the sun as a giant firebird... being a redshirt under the command of Sisko... exploring alien planets with my moms... Worf calling me his be'nal-"

Nyota suddenly grew silent as she recalled her fucking crush on Worf back when she was 10. Nyota viably cringes as those embarrassing memories come back to her. To hide the slight redness in her cheeks she pressed her face as hard as she could on glass window as she tried to mentally think of other things to forget about those embarrassing childhood fantasies once more. Then, she felt James place an object into her hand.

"Huh? Oh! You mean like... an actual universal translator? Just like in Star Trek? No fucking way... so how exactly does it work?"

He chuckled, "not sure, it's alien tech. I was given them when I scheduled our visit," he pushed a button on the device and a green light came on, "they'll understand us and we'll understand them."

He smiled, he was happy to be here with her, "I hear we'll see all kinda of tech here, things we couldn't dream of."

He looked back to the station, he could see stores and restaurants selling all kinds of alien goods, "and it's all on me," he had quite a bit of money that he had taken from Garrett's safe when everything was said and done, plus he'd gotten a job to make sure it didn't run dry. "So, what do we do first?"

"First thing? The first thing we are going to do is test out these translators thats what!"

Nyota then held out her hand with the device firmly grasped in her palm. She pressed the button and a green light appeared.

"Alright so... you tell me what you hear word for word." demanded Nyota as she looked to James, disregarding any sort of compliance from him.

"Bonjour" (French: Good day)
"Gracias" (Spanish: Thank you)
"Heghlu'meH QaQ jajvam" (Klingon: Prehaps today is a good day to die.)

Nyota then stared at James to see if he understood any of that... particularly the last sentence.

He chuckled as she started her little test of the device and listened as she said some phrases, "all sounded like English to me, Good day, hello, and....Perhaps today is a good day to die?" he raised an eyebrow and smirked a bit at his friend. "Well I mean, we made it to space...I'd say I might be able to die happy now," he chuckled and nudged her again.

SHUT UP! WEAK PATHETIC! and of course the Shadow wouldn't remain silent, so he just ignored it.

"Okay," he activated his own translator and shoved it in his pocket, "so we have a station full of aliens and their tech plus whatever foods they have up here," he smirked, "let's go enjoy ourselves."

He looked to the station, "there's so much....I don't know what we should do first," he looked over to Nyota, "hey...my treat.....so what should we do first?"

Nyota blinked and stared at the translator in disbelief.

"IT UNDERSTANDS KLINGON! Thats AWESOME! Like... oh my god... It understands Klingon! Hahaha! Oh my moms are going to LOVE this." laughed Nyota as she placed the translator onto herself.

"Where to go? Geez I dunno... the space arcade?" suggested Nyota

As she waited for James to come up with a plan, she looked around at all the various posters and signs written in alien languages of all sorts. Or what she assumed was in alien languages, they could be in English and would make just as much of sense to her given that she had dyslexia.

"Maybe look for a map of the place or something. They should hav- holy shit look at that one's head!" pointed out Nyota to the strange alien that was but one large eyeball with a tiny insect like mouth below it.

"Isn't that freaky or what?" remarked Nyota

He had to hold back his laughter as Nyota pointed out the alien. Said alien narrowed his single eye angrily at them and stormed off. James turned to his friend, leting a bit if his laugh slip through, "we gotta be careful, they can undsrstand us now."

He noticed a short pole with a device on it, he stepped to it and touched it, a large holographic map of the station appeared from it, "whoa, look at this Nyota."

He reached up and touched the hologram it turned and flipped with his hand, he noticed the words voice command pop up, "ugh........arcade?" the a trail showing the directions to the arcade appeared on the hllogram map.

He turned to her smiling, "well, what do you think?"
