<-------------------------------@------------------------------->

"What? Who?" Kira said sleepily.

She rubbed her eyes and sat up in the bed, then turned to stare 
at the person beside her.

"Prophets!" Kira exclaimed. Dukat chuckled.

"Good morning Major."

"How did you get here?"

"More to the point, how did *you* get here?"

Kira looked around the room, decorated in the angular Cardassian 
style rather than the Bajoran style that her quarters were 
decorated in. And her clothes were nowhere to be seen.

"Oh Prophets," she said again.

"I believe your clothes are still in Quarks," he replied in answer 
to her unanswered question.

"Quarks! Why are my clothes in Quarks? You’re enjoying this, 
aren’t you, Dukat."

"Oh, immensely, Major. And your clothes are in Quarks because 
that’s where you took them off."

"I did?" She rubbed her head. This was one hell of a hangover, she 
thought, groaning.

"I told you not to drink so much. It’s why you lost the game."

"Game?"

"Strip poker, remember?"

"Strip what?!"

"It’s a human card game that Doctor Bashir was teaching us. When 
you lose a round, you remove a piece of clothing. How you ended up 
here, however..."

"I bet this is a dream come true for you."

"Yes," he admitted. "But I would never take advantage of you, 
Major. Not unless you wanted me to, of course."

"I’m sure," she replied, climbing out of the bed. "Computer!"

"You’re leaving already?"

"Yes!"

"Don’t you want to know how you ended up here?"

"I thought you didn’t know."

"I didn’t say that."

Kira thought for a minute. "No, you didn’t. How did I end up 
here?"

"You were the overall loser. Commander Dax decided that this was to 
be the ‘wooden spoon.’" Dukat sounded slightly offended. Kira 
snickered, then frowned.

"That is one Trill who’s in *deep* trouble."

"Want some help in teaching her a lesson?" he asked, a gleam in his 
eye. "After all, this was hardly flattering to me."

"Why didn’t you stop her?"

"She had control of the transporter, not me. Well?"

Kira considered it. "Do you have something in mind?"

"Oh yes! I think you’ll like this, Major..."
