The last explosion was still echoing; Commander Data looked in disbelief as he watched Ricker, Geordi and Captain Pickard all fall to the ground in great pain. Quickly he assessed the three as to the reason they fell, then acted on that information.He tapped his communicator and said,"Data to Sickbay.....Emergency BEAM OUT!! repeat, Emergency BEAM OUT!! He then knelt down and took Picard's wrist into his hand,feeling for his pulse.At this point,blood stained the front of Jean Luc's tunic and was continuing to flow.
"Sickbay?",Data said,speaking into his Combadge.
"Beverly here, Data What's the matter?",responded the Doctor.
"I can't seem to find the Captain's pulse...', the Android spoke sporadically,not believing his findings.
'Also,he is NOT breathing.....I believe he is ....DEAD!!??

Immediately the four away-team members dissolved into solid light and then just as quickly disappeared from view. Seconds later, Doctor Beverly Crusher watched as the three injured crew members reappeared on her sickbay exam tables.

As soon as Lt. commander Data realized that he also materialized in Sickbay,he quickly walked over to Beverly. "What the HELL happened down there?"She demanded,as she tore at Picard's clothing so that she could see the extent of damage.

PROLOGUE:

Commander Data sat at the bar in 10-Forward, tapping a finger on the counter. Guinan, the "Bar Keeper",wiped out a glass; patiently watching the Android. Data then got up and walked to the "window" to stare out at the warp-speed stars.

As he stood there, he began to whistle quietly to himself. He then walked over to a small table, sat down leaned forward and propped his head up with his left arm. He sat there awhile, then started to drum the table-top with his right hand. After he "tired" of that, he rose to his feet and returned to the bar. Seating himself,he looked to the left, then to the right. Guinan, curious and also amused, asked Data,"Can I get you anything Commander?"

"I suppose that will be ok", Data returned. "OK?....",the black woman remarked, a bit confused. "Yes, I'll have a drink!" The Android said this... after some deliberation. "And...?,"Guinan said with a questioning look.
Data returned the look and questioned her; "And...What??"
"What's your poison?,"Guinan asked as she turned to get a clean glass from the shelf behind her. "Oh...,that wouldn't be very effective on me; as you know, I'm an Android!"
