Timeline: Current

The twins sat in Bazinga’s. it was quiet, way too quiet. The looked up at one another their eyes met across the expanse of the table between them. They then looked down Gaia sat across the table from Maia they each held a steaming mug of tea.

"I'm leaving" Gaia said
“Leaving?” her twin queried
“Yes, leaving Bazinga’s, leaving here.”

"What! Why?" Maia exclaimed

Gaia looked at Maia "I'm going to go work with Grandfather for a while. You and Korok can handle this. Well, if they find him that is."

Maia took a deep slow breath and exhaled "I contacted Grandfather a few hours ago. "I told him that I was coming back to work with him. If, we are both returning who is running Bazinga's?" She asked her twin

"I don't know." Gaia shrugged "I guess no one. I guess it closes or becomes something else."

Maia sighed softly "That is not how this was set up Gaia."

Gaia looked tired as she looked up from the mug of steaming tea at her sister. "I've been taken and I have had my memory erased. My staff has been killed in the most horrendous ways and Mojo was taken from Sickbay when everyone else disappeared." Tears slid down the blonde woman's cheeks "You know that he was ill, from a spider bite. If he survives, that in itself it will be a miracle. Now, now he's missing. I can't take anymore Maia."

Maia looked at her sister "That's why I am leaving, I can't take any more. That Captain Blackwater he, foolishly disappeared, Korok has talked about strange dreams, I think he said they were visions. They, Starfleet spread the crew to all ends of the Fleet. He, Captain Blackwater never returned. Korok, made it back but..." Maia turned away a serious sad look on her face. "He found that he would be better at probably being a Fleeter then a cook. But now he's gone." Maia replied quietly. She took a sip of her tea her mouth set in a tight grimace.

"All of that does not bode well for either of us." They both said at the same time.
“Right” Maia said
Gaia nodded “I can contact Grandfather and tell him I change my mind. But I don’t want to or wouldn’t want to do this alone. Maybe I should just have a vacation of sorts.”

Maia laughed “remember what happened the last time you tried to take a vacation of sorts? Grandfather tried to marry you off to that man.” Maia snapped her fingers “What was his name, Timlon, Taronn?”

Gaia shook her head “No and no and it was Torin and he was a good man, it just wouldn’t have worked out.”

“Why is that?” Maia asked her twin, she had never wanted to share this before so Maia wondered what had actually happened on that planet.

Gaia colored and put her face into her mug of hot tea, she gulped it and it burned her tongue, and throat. At least she didn't have to answer the question. Not yet that was.

Maia nodded at her twin smugly "Don't want to talk? Means I can make up my own tale." She laughed at Gaia "That means we both stay? Or does that mean I'm going and you're stay or that you're going and I'm staying."

The twins looked at one another over the rims of their mugs, confused as to who was staying or going so it seemed like they both were for the moment.
