(Earth, Manchester - Gorton Cemetery – ACONN Alexander Dyson – 1503)

Alex had finished his shift in the Rec Room and headed down to Earth. Hewas here for two reasons. The first was to visit the Dyson farm in Australia.Located in the middle nowhere, it had been the family home until they hadpacked up and moved to Mars. These days, it was the property of the Zapatafamily, who had moved there from Mexico. They patriarch of the family, ErnestoZapata, had invited him to come over for dinner. So that was the plan.

As for reason number two… A while back, he had been unclogging a toiletat the Rec Room… ~Blasted Bolians.~ …when he had heard two crew membersgossiping about Lieutenant T’Shaliath and something with her father’s katra.This had gotten them scolded by the Sam Malone and they had left shortlyafterward. As soon as they could do so in private, he had asked Sam about it. Betweenwhat Sam had told him and some research he had done himself, he had gotten amore nuanced picture.

This version had also sent him searching for Teresa Jackson. A friendthat the Lieutenant had apparently lost at the start of her father’s stay in herbrain. ~Why am I here ? Nobody asked you to stick you nose in.~ But he alreadyknew the answer. The way he had gotten his violin and the condition he hadfound his parents apartment in had reminded him that life was too short. He ponderedhow to go about this. If he was Teresa, he would have nothing to do with T’Shaliath– or himself – in this situation. 

Fortunately, he found Miss Jackson in the stables. ~Good thing I got myhands on a picture.~ So he knew what she looked like. Alex couldn’t ride ahorse, but he could talk to one. He whistled so that his approach wouldn’t startleanybody an stopped at a lovely, solid black horse with a sign that said ‘Michelle’on a bracket above. 

“Hello, Mickey, I’m Alex. And I need you to deliver a message.”

“Are you paying attention, Mickey ? Because I’m about to tell you a story.”The horse gave him a harumph. “I’ll take that as a yes, then. So, there was thisselfish, species-ist and arrogant Vulcan schmuck called Sath. Schmuck, by theway is a Yiddish word for…well, schmuck. But I’m getting off track here. Now,this Sath fella was so selfish then when his time came to go the big stable inthe sky, he refused to go. So he called his daughter to his sick bed and puthis katra, that’s what we humans call a soul, into HER head.”

The horse shook its head. “Yeah, yeah, nasty move. But like I said, thisguy was a schmuck. And having him knocking around her head turned his daughterinto selfish, species-ist and arrogant schmuck. Of course, Sath being Sath, he refusedto move out. Until a couple of days ago, his daughter got the hots for thisTrill fella. Which made Sath go completely cooky.” He made a hand signal, whilerolling his eyes. 

“So much, that they had to take his daughter to Vulcan to forcibly removehim. It worked, but now the poor girl is just a shell of her former self.” Hepatted the horse on the neck. “Anyway, you look like a smart girl. With a bigbrain that can remember all that. When you see Teresa, tell her that story forme, will you ? Bye.”

And with that, he went back to whistling and walked out of the barn,heading for the exit of cemetery.
