(Toronto, Canada - Metro Toronto Convention Centre - CTO/3O Lieutenant
commander Ravok/Kyle Ravine-0940)

Ravok sat there in the room with the two strangers who claimed to be his
parents, or at least Kyle's parents, trying his best to play along.

" So...How was your trip?" He asked them.

The woman sat next to him. " It was good, but you know how it is going
anywhere with your father . Everyone runs up running an autograph from the
great John Revine" She laughed.

" People know you too." John said quickly.

" They know my work. They don't know my face, big difference. It's not like
anyone runs up to me and asks, Marlene,  can I have your autograph. It's
always Marlene, how's your husband ?" She responded.

~ So their names are John and Marlene ~ Ravok thought.

" Have either of you met the others? "

" The others ?" Marlene asked.

" Yes, like Tristian Steele or Gabrielle Knight." Ravok.

John laughed and cracked open a beer.

" You know we met Tristian before. I'd like to meet Anna."

Marlene slapped him on the arm playfully.

" Shut up "

" What ?you've even said it. She's a blonde bombshell " John added.

~ Blonde ? Anna?~ Ravok wondered.

" Anna ? You mean…."

" Your on screen love interest. Lieutenant Merek."

Ravok perked up to high alert.

" Its commander Merek. Where is she ? "

" I don't know. You should have her number. " Marlene said.

" You could give it to me. " John joked.

" Her number?"

Marlene tilted her head." Yes, her phone number. Seriously sweetheart
you're acting strange. Is everything ok ?"

Ravok decided to entertain them.

" You ever wakeup and not feel like yourself? "

Marlene looked at John.

" What's wrong son?"

Ravok felt the word son kick him in the chest.

" I ...I don't know who is any of you are. I'm not this Kyle person
everyone keeps calling me. "

John looked down and sighed.

" Son, we've been through this before. When you were a child we stopped you
from acting because you let your imagination run wild and you started to
believe you were your character. "

" What?" Ravok asked, confused.

Marlene placed her hand on Ravok's lap.

" You played the role of Tommy Vale. You were 10 almost 11 and when the
movie failed you became convinced that you were Tommy Vale. The
psychiatrist said it was your way of dealing with the blow to your self
esteem. You saw yourself as a failure. So you withdrew from being yourself
and started acting like "

 John cut her off. " He wasn't acting , don't say that."

Marlene nodded. " I'm sorry not acting. You took on the personality of your
character Tommy for about 6 months. During that time we decided it was best
for you to stop acting and refocus your attention to living a normal life
away from cameras. Eventually you became yourself again. "

A distant look danced over his face.

" So...your saying that I'm not Ravok and that I'm Kyle?"

" Honey this is why we told you to be careful. We were afraid this would
happen." Marlene said.

" You're our son and we are here for you." John said lovingly.

Ravok stood up and walked to other side of the room, standing there he
collected his thoughts.

~ I'm Ravok ir'Darmod-Lathuel tr'Shara. Born on stardate 2420.05.30, I'm
not this Kyle person...or am I? No I'm not, I have a daughter , a woman I
love, friends...a family? No I have people I consider family, but most of
my family is dead. I have an aunt in prison, a daughter and that's it, by
blood. Get it together NOW!~

Ravok turned back around and looked at them. " Gotcha." He said laughing.

They both looked at him.

" That's not funny Kyle."

Ravok laughed. " You should have seen the look on your faces. I just had to
mess with you guys."

John stood up. " You had to pull our leg didn't you?"

Ravok walked over and slapped John on the shoulder. " Dad I'm sorry. Look
let me make it up to you. I'm gonna go make a quick phone call to Anna and
the two of you wait right here. I'll be right back. "

"Ok" Marlene said.

" Do either of you need anything like a snack ? " Ravok asked

They both shook their heads no.

" Hang tight guys, plus I have to piss really bad. " Ravok said, and walked
out the door and shut it behind him. He grasped the handle tightly and
pulled it hard, breaking it so that they couldn't leave the room.

" Yeah just stay there. I'm getting the f*(# out of this place" Ravok said
to himself and took off down the hallway.
