Captain Janeway strode into engineering and up to her chief engineer.

"B'Elanna, I wanted to congratulate you. Warp core efficiency is better than ever, how did you manage it?"

"I made some improvements to the relays using Borg technology."

"Ah, the Borg again! Did Seven assist you?"

B'Elanna looked slightly uncomfortable.

"You could say that."

Janeway studied her closely.

"B'Elanna, you didn't?"

"That damn Borg always wanted to help in my department. Well she got her wish!" B'Elanna stated, defiantly.

Janeway smiled.

"Good work, Lieutenant!"

She turned and left, still smiling. Perhaps Chakotay would be free for dinner after all.
