A Reckoning

"So what you are saying Eddington, that during transport, we were some how dematerialized and stored in the pattern buffer, then you wiped all computer memory to store our neural patterns and placed our bodies in the holosuite with Dr. Bashir as the main character, and that we played out his program?"

"Yes, sir, that's what happened. The holosuite program just deleted the actual character and placed your bodies in there, Kira as Colonel Karpahov, Dax as Dr. Honey Bear, Worf as Duesqon, Captain Sisko, you were Dr. Noah, and Miles, you were the Falcon." Dr. Bashir said to his commanding officer.

"Is there anyway that we can see what happened in that holosuite after we were placed there?" Dax asked.

Dr. Bashir replied. "Yes, there are the holosuite visual logs, we can access them from our consoles."

They all accessed the logs and watched their body in the holosuite.

"Wait a minute, DOCTOR. Are you saying this person who you necked with while she was wearing silk lingerie is ME?" Kira shouted.

"Calm down Kira, I had to play the program out, that included kissing you." Dr. Bashir explained calmly.

Everybody else was still pretty calm about what they did until they got to the part where Bashir and Garak were handcuffed to the laser and Bashir made his advances on Dax. Then all chaos broke loose.

Dax took a mok'Bara stance and shouted, "But, I'm sure you enjoyed yourself more when you kissed me! Right DOCTOR?"

When he didn't answer, she attacked, and knocked him out in 3 seconds.

"Thanks for doing that Dax," Kira said. "I wanted to do the exact same thing myself."

With that meeting, Dr. Julian Bashir had a reckoning for his actions in the holosuite.
