SuperRyoga: Read this or turn into P-Chan. <evil grin>

I apologize if this ends up too big...it shoudn't be since the entire
story in my wordprocessor (15 chapters) is only 88 KB)

I am also sending first five chapters since 1-4 is exposition and
anime starts in chapter 5.

**Author's Notes:  This is actually a sequel to another story, located
at http://www.geocities.com/Area51/Dunes/2785/yankee.html.  It's
entirely Star Trek: Voyager though, kinda dark and depressing (also
self-insertion), but if you would like a summary, it's at the end of
this section if you don't want it spoiled.  I also intend this story
to be more of a love story.**

Love Hurts (tenatively titled)

By SuperAkane/Allucia 

CHAPTER ONE 

[Captain's Log, Stardate 52788.22: 

We have entered orbit around the planet Amiren. The inhabiants have
invited us for shore leave, which we are in great need of, and
extremely grateful for. Voyager is low on supplies and we are in
desperate need of materials to make repairs. 

The planet itself resembles, in our humble relief conn officer's
opinion, Japan, at least in her time. She is squriming in her seat as
I speak, so I better get shore leave going before she explodes.] 

"End log," Kathryn said as she closed her log. 

"Hey Captain, I resemble that comment..." Allucia tittered from conn,
giggling. Then squirmed a bit, feeling Kathryn's eyes boring into the
back of her skull. 

Chakotay spoke up. "She knows you do," he added, good-naturedly. 

"Actually, you aren't humble, you're a loud mouth," Harry added from
Ops. 

Allucia grinned. "You're all against me..." she muttered, just loud
enough for the Bridge crew to hear. 

Kathryn cleared her throat. "Alpha shift is offically over. Those of
you who have requested shore leave are free to disembark." she said,
her eyes on the ensign at conn. 

"Yes ma'am!" Allucia and Harry piped up at the same time, and
simultaneously exited the Bridge, saying good-bye as well. 

Kathryn put a hand to her head. "Ack! 'Yes ma'am' in surround sound!
Oh, me." All Chakotay could do in reply was laugh. 

CHAPTER TWO 

Harry and Allucia beamed down together, as they were meeting Tom and
B'Elanna for dinner. They materialized in a bustling town square,
holding their bags. 

"Our hotel is right over there," Harry said, motioning with his bag to
a white building. Allucia nodded and picked both of hers up. 

"Here, let me get that for you," Harry volunteered, taking her heavier
bag from her. "Geez, why do women always pack so much?" he said,
laughing nervously. 

"Um, okay." Allucia said, and frowned for a moment. "I like to have
lots of choices for outfits. And my makeup." 

"Lemme guess. The makeup is in the bag I'm holding." 

"Nope it's in my bag." Allucia grinned. "Besides, I don't wear as much
makeup as I used to." 

"Thank God for that." Harry said. In reply, Allucia elbowed Harry hard
in the side, making him nearly fall over. "What did I do?" he asked,
feigning innocence. 

Allucia rolled her eyes as they entered the hotel. "Forget it." 

The two walked up to the front desk. "Reservations for Harry Kim and
Allucia Banks." Harry said.

The attendent behind the desk bowed slightly. Allucia caught the
attendent leering at her, and more specifically, at her chest. She
scowled back to scare him. It was easy, as he was two and a half feet
tall and standing on a stool. "W-w-welcome to our town, Nahog. You two
have rooms 47 and 48," he said, handing them keycards. "It is on the
fifth floor." 

"Thank you," Harry said, and both he and Allucia returned the bow. 

The took an elevator to the fifth floor, the top floor of the hotel,
and from there to their respective rooms. Allucia was unpacking when
there was a knock at her door. "Come in, Harry." 

Harry entered. "How did you know it was me?" 

Allucia sighed.  "Only the Captain knows this so far, but I'm a full
empath now, thanks to the wormhole that brought me here. I have the
cabablities of a Betazoid. And then some." 

At this, Harry flushed. "Uh...so you...um...know what I'm thinking?"
That made him really nervous, if Allucia knew why he had come. 

Allucia shook her head. "No, only if I tried to read your mind, which
I wouldn't do without your permission." 

Harry let out a loud, relieved sigh. Allucia did however, notice how
worried and nervous he was. "Harry, what is it? Geez, sit down before
you pass out." 

Harry took the invitation, and sat down on the end of Allucia's bed.
"I guess I'll just blurt it out." He sighed. 

Allucia raised an eyebrow and got nervous herself, and immediately did
an emotion clamp-down. "Go ahead," she said. 

Harry sighed again. "Well...the past three years you've been on
Voyager...getting to know you and all, as a good
friend...well...Lusha, I've really fallen for you. Like how I used to
like Seven." 

Allucia was caught totally off-guard, but didn't show it. Harry
silently cursed her Mek-pok training. 

"Please say something," Harry pleaded. 

Allucia closed her eyes. "I honestly don't know what to say," she
replied evenly. "You've taken me totally off-guard. I certainly wasn't
expecting this." 

Harry smiled meekly. "Say you'll have dinner with me, just me? I'm
sure Tom and B'Elanna won't mind having some time to themselves." 
 
CHAPTER THREE 

Tom and B'Elanna were having dinner at a sidewalk cafe, glad to have
each other to themselves, finally on shore leave, when B'Elanna
suddenly focused on a sight behind Tom, as she and her beau were
sitting across the table from each other. 

"By Kahless..." she said, trailing off as her jaw dropped, as she
recognized the Starfleet couple walking towards them. A couple in
itself was fine. It was the two people who comprised the couple. 

"Bella, what?" B'Elanna nodded to the duo walking down the sidewalk.
Tom turned around. "Wow. I didn't think he would actually do it." 

Allucia and Harry were walking down to the cafe, hand in hand. They
were about to walk by the pilot and engineer when B'Elanna called out. 

"Hey Starfleet!" 

Harry jumped slightly, startled, then turned around. Allucia giggled
and waved. "Uh, hi Tom, B'Elanna." "I'm glad we caught you. Lusha and
I won't be joining you for dinner...is that okay?" 

"Uh...sure, Harry." answered Tom. 

"I have to go to the ladies' room," B'Elanna suddenly said, looking at
Allucia. It was obviously time for a girl talk.

"Uh, me too," Allucia replied, picking up on B'Elanna's request. The
women disappeared into the resturant. 

Tom merely smiled at Harry. "So you finally told her?" 

"Yeah--caught her totally off-guard." 

"And you didn't get decked." 

Harry had to grin at that. "At least not yet." 

Tom shook his head. 

CHAPTER FOUR 

Allucia was taking a walk through the marketplace of the town,
shopping. She was looking for a dress to wear to dinner that night.
She had decided to take a break and walk through the park. 

Allucia sat on a bench, taking in the sights. This planet is
beautiful, she thought. Then she heard a rustle in the bushes behind
her. She whirled around. "Hello?" 

The bushes parted, and out came an animal. Allucia gasped. It was gray
and had long, floppy ears, and looked like some type of rabbit, that
is, until it meowed. 

Allucia's eyes widened. It meowed again. It bounded up onto the bench
next to her, and started purring. "You hungry?" As if in
understanding, the creature nodded. Allucia went into her basket
filled with food for snacking, and took out something resembling a
carrot. 

"MEOW!!!" went the creature as it pounced upon the carrot Allucia had
placed on the bench. It devoured it in one bite. 

"Hungry, ain't ya?" Allucia giggled. She took another carrot out, and
that was quickly finished off as well. Allucia warily reached out
towards the animal, and pet it, glad that it had let her. 

"RYO OHKI!!! WHERE ARE YOU!!!" came a rather loud and slightly
disharmonious voice. Allucia frowned. Then a figure came out of the
bushes. "Oh, thanks!" she said, and walked around the bench to face
Allucia. "You found my cabbit." 

"Is that what she's called?" Allucia asked. 

The girl, who looked to be about Allucia's age (though looks can be
deceiving with other alien races), nodded. She had long, spiky ice
blue hair. "Yes--you're one of those off-worlders here for vacation,
aren't you?" she asked. Allucia nodded. "I'm Ryoko," the girl said. 

"I'm Allucia--but everyone calls me Lusha." 

"Welcome to Nahog." 
 
"Thanks. Um, if you don't mind me asking, what is a cabbit?" 

Ryoko grinned. "A cabbit is half-rabbit and half-cat. And they can
also turn into a space ship. Watch." With that, she picked up Ryo-Ohki
and hurled her high in the air, the poor cabbit howling at the
offense. She tumbled end over end in the air, turning into a spiky
looking spaceship, like some of the ones Voyager had seen in orbit,
and proceeded to meow, though much louder with a slightly metallic tone.

"You mean, those ships in orbit--are all cabbits?!" 

Ryoko nodded, then looked at the jeweled bracelet on her wrist. "Oh
shoot! I have to go now--nice meeting you Lusha!" Allucia didn't even
have time to wave back, as Ryoko had disappeared right before her
eyes. Sighing, she continued her walk through the park. 

The next thing she came upon was a martial arts demonstration.
Allucia, of course, was immediately interested. In the ring she was
surprised to find two people who looked to be her age fighting, one of
them a girl with short black hair, wearing a yellow summer dress. The
boy was wearing black pants and a yellow shirt, and a yellow bandana
with black flecks on it. His dark hair fell over the band, nearly in
his eyes. 

Then Allucia realized it wasn't a demo, but the two were actually
fighting. And judging by the bored expressions of the crowd, it was
nothing new. Intrigued, Allucia moved in closer. 

"Ryoga!" the girl was shrieking, "Leave me alone! I am betrothed to
Ranma!" It was plain that Ryoga, the boy, wasn't listening. "You will
never beat me!" 

"I love you Ak--" he began, as the girl's foot connected with his chin
and he went sailing backwards. He quickly got up again. "Akane-san!!!"
he cried, leaping for her again. This time Akane's fist connected with
his nose, and he went flying again. Towards Allucia. Allucia was so
involved in studying their moves she couldn't move quite in time.
Ryoga landed on top of her. 

"Hey!" Allucia cried, pushing Ryoga off of her. 

Ryoga blushed. "I am--" he broke off as his face met Allucia's,
"sorry..." 

Allucia wasn't looking at Ryoga. She hefted herself off the ground and
brushed herself off, her eyes on Akane. "It's okay." Then she got an
evil idea. "Hey Akane!" she called. 

"Yes, who are you?" Akane replied. 

"My name is Allucia--I am an off-worlder. Whaddya say you stop picking
on Ryoga here, and someone your own size?" 

To her surprise, Akane grinned back. A chance to fight another girl.
"Very well." 

Allucia nodded. As she was wearing her uniform, she removed the outer
shirt and turtle neck so that she was wearing the tank top. Just
before she entered the ring, Allucia closed her eyes and stood
perfectly still for a few moments.  This technique, taught to her by
Tuvok, was meant to clear her mind of emotion and chaos, like
relaxation techniques and katas in other martial arts.  When she
opened her eyes, her face was clear of any emotion whatsoever.

Akane and Allucia slowly began circling each other, each waiting for
the other to strike.  But suddenly, Akane opened the fight with a fast
high kick, aimed at Allucia's upper torso. Allucia deftly ducked into
a crouch, and tried to kick Akane's feet out from under her. She
wasn't fast enough to succeed, though, and before she could move away,
Akane had somersaulted over her and kicked her in the small of the
back.  Allucia went sprawling face down on the grass.  This Akane was
better than she expected.

Just as the fight was ending, Harry walked up, and saw Allucia and
Akane going at it. He shook his head.  Not even on the planet an hour
and she was probably getting herself hurt. But he could tell she was
making Tuvok proud, even though Tuvok wouldn't admit to it. Then Akane
got in a good uppercut and Allucia went flying. 

Right into Harry's arms. 

Or, more accurately she landed just in front of Harry, and fell into
his arms, her ankle twisting beneath her. Akane gasped and rushed
over. "Allucia, I am sorry!" 

Allucia smiled, despite her rapidly swelling split lip. "It's okay. It
was a good fight. Obviously, I haven't had as much practice as you.
I've only been working on my discipline for a year." 

Akane's eyes widened. "You're pretty good, for only being a year into
training...I've been training since I was six years old." 

"I can't even remember being six..." Allucia said, trailing off,
distant. 

"I bet you were still dangerous when you were five," Harry put in. 

"Depends on your point of view.  For example, I was considered very
dangerous by my big brother." 

"Akane-san!" came a voice. 

Akane stiffened. "Hello Ranma." Ranma was tall and lanky. He wore a
red shirt and black trousers. "Ranma, this is Allucia, and..." 

"Harry Kim." Harry put in for himself. 

Ranma looked at Akane, then to Allucia, then to Akane again. "You two
were fighting, weren't you?" he scolded Akane. Both Akane and Allucia
blushed. 

"Well, I challenged her. Unfortunately, I didn't know what I was in
for." Allucia said. 

Ranma shook his head. "I'll never understand girls." 

"Neither will I." said Harry. 

"Well, Akane and I have to go home now. Nice meeting you two." Ranma
said. He and Akane waved and walked off.  

Once out of earshot, Ranma must have said something to upset Akane,
threw his head back and laughed, and the pair saw --was that a
mallet?!-- come out of nowhere to smash Ranma on the head, while she
screamed "RANMA NO BAKA!!"  The universal translater didn't translate
it.

Harry shook his head again. "We should get you to Sickbay, and have
the Doc patch you up for the umpteenth time." He went to tap his
combadge. 

"Harry, no. I have a first aid kit in my room. I can fix myself up at
the hotel." 

Harry shrugged. "Figures. Okay, if you say so." 

Allucia went to stand, and toppled back down. "OW! Stupid ankle...." 

"Here, let me help," offered Harry. Allucia nodded. She put an arm
over his shoulder while he put his arm under her's, and gently eased
her to her feet. Allucia stood a tad shakily on one foot. "Ready to
walk?" Allucia nodded again. They started out gingerly, but her ankle
gave way beneath her. 

"Damn!" she cried, biting her already swollen lip. That hurt.... 

Harry sighed. "Okay. I'm carrying you back to the hotel." 

Allucia blushed. "Ummmm...okay." 

Harry gently lifted Allucia up. She was heavier than he thought she
would be. He staggered a little under the sudden weight but balanced
himself. He shifted Allucia in his arms more comfortably. Then Allucia
blushed at the sudden closeness, as did he. 

By now it was nearly sunset, and Allucia still wanted a dress to wear.
The marketplace closed ay dusk, so they had a little bit of time left. 

"Um, Harry?" 

"Yeah?" 

"I have to pick up my dress for tonight." 

"Um...okay." Allucia directed Harry to a boutique she saw earlier.
Harry carried her in, quickly explained she hurt her ankle, and they
quickly picked up a nice dress. They then went back to the hotel. 



**Author's Notes, cont'd.***

Allucia Banks is human, and relief pilot for Voyager.  She's much like
Akane, bad-tempered and violent, except with the depression of Ryoga. 
Allucia is based on myself.  She's also an Ensign on Voyager, wears
command colors (red).  Has long black hair with bangs, blue eyes, and
her favorite color is purple...she is a masochist and likes to punch
walls...arrived on Voyager (24th century) from 21st century Earth
(2040) via wormhole which gave her some telepathic abilities.
