Chakotay watched B'Elanna leave his quarters. He had to make Kathryn whole again she had said, it was affecting the crew.

 

He drew in a deep breath, there was really no choice it was something that had to be done.

 

He had to make her see.

 

He had to make her realize that this loss was a loss that the whole crew had felt because they had felt and seen the loss of the Captain.

 

Their Captain.

 

Their reason to believe that they were going to get home and even if they didn't they had to make Voyager home.

 

Edward had proved to the crew that even the Captain was trying to make this tin can home.

 

He walked next door to Kathryn's quarters and rang the chime. He waited there was no answer but the computer had told him earlier that she was not yet asleep.

 

Finally he used his override codes and entered the Captain's domain.

 

"Kathryn…"

 

She turned a sharp gaze towards him. "What do you want Chakotay?"

 

He saw tears in her eyes and realized she was looking at the one picture she had let the Doctor take of her holding Edward.

 

He sighed, "Kathryn do you know what B'Elanna just said to me?"

 

"What?" She stated impatiently. "What did B'Elanna say to you that was so important that you had to barge into my personal space?"

 

He stared at you the fire smoldering in his obsidian orbs. "She told me that the crew seeing you married and pregnant gave them a reason to move on. They were going to continue on their trek to the Alpha Quadrant; but if you could make Voyager home so could they."

 

"I –"

 

He stopped her before she had a chance to object. "She said that I had to make you whole again."
