Sweet ... loved the interaction between Ezri and Prynn(who is officially my fave relaunch character - and that's saying something) ... loved her Hitchhiker's Guide reference. I *really* hope that the Prophets have some advice pending, though it will *always* be when they think that Ben needs it, since they're outside time. Better never than too late? Sounds more like Curzon to me ... Tobin seems a bit too ... optimistic for that. And Prynn's got a point about Humans having trouble with one lifetime ... reminds me of something that happened a few years back ... oh wait, that was last week.
Sorry, too easy.
LOL ... Looks like the Federation bunch are really rubbing off on the NR crew. Looks like Taral's really going overboard on the hero-worship. Kirk out-talking the Borg ... the very idea made me LOL, mostly 'cause it's true ... there isn't an evil computer that Kirk can't kill(Hmmm, I wonder how he'd deal with G0-T0). I *really* hope this whiskey Scotty has squirreled away is either Scotch or Whyren's Reserve - and not that green stuff. "It is ... it is ... it is green." usually equals trouble.
Edit: Do you want me to compile a soundtrack for
Where No Jedi
, Jon?

lovely to see Scotty having all that influence. Don't get absorbed by the borg or you will get Scottish talking borgs all over the place. And that will be a tad difficult for Picard and co.

Am allowing myself a minute or two of insanity over it: We have green grass again! We have green grass again!!!!!!! (Yep. It rained here at last. Three inches!!!!)
Who is Sikozu?
I had about three different ways to answer that question, but now’s not the time for sarcasm.
Go here
for that answer. She’d be the one with the odd hairdo that walks up walls.
“I wonder what the answer will be.”
Prinn shrugged. “I always thought the answers was 42, Admiral.”
Hmmm… judging by his reaction, I don’t think Sisko indulged in Hitchhiker’s Guide. *giggle*
“Damn it, you'd think after seven years of being joined I'd get my past lives straightened out!”
Prinn looked over from the helm. “Ezri, humans have enough trouble with one life, let alone nine.”
How right Prinn is… and I loved this whole scene with Ezri. It’s… I don’t know… kind of bittersweet that it couldn’t be Jadzia (who had trouble getting her past lives straight, too) sitting there instead, talking to Sisko as if it were the most natural thing in the world. And… they tied the knot! They tied the knot!!!
Ah, Scotty…
Good update. Want more.

Haha, looks good. I liked the dialogue between Scotty and LaForge. I have to admit, however, that I'm feeling the need to read about some stuff getting blown up, preferably Borg drones.

And yeah, you knew. I told you!
Well... yeah, but I'd GUESSED! *insufferable grin, then breaks down into giggles*
Prinn shrugged. “I always thought the answers was 42, Admiral.”
*Jaded_Girl dies laughing* *Striker should have bought a Ginzuishou with his gift certificate instead...*
Better no information than information too late to mean a damn,” he growled, face twisting slightly.
*Jaded_Girl's echo-y, disembodied voice issues from the void* Hear, hear!
“Begging yer pardon, sir, but I'm Lieutenant Taral. Scotty's gone down te' the Enterprise ta check on Geordi.”
*Jaded_Girl's spirit is both confused and amused*
Geordi shook his head and flashed Scotty a toothy grin. “Yeah, but aboard those three starships we have Leonard McCoy, Montgomery Scott, Ackbar, Spock, Logk, Benjamin Sisko and Jean-Luc Picard. We'll get through.”
It's the all-star team!
*still dead*
~Scotty chuckled. “If Jim Kirk were alive, he'd probably be able ta' talk the Collective into disassembling itself.”
~Geordi tilted his head back slightly as he laughed. “Or maybe Captain Picard can use his debate skills against the Queen!”
~Scotty nodded, then shook his head. “Aye, I'm getting too old for this.”
SO cute! ^_^ *still dead*
Please read and review. The next post will be on the 27th. Up!
*gasp! The sheer excitement of a post coming tomorrow has resurrected Jaded_Girl! Hurrah!*
*skims ZebulaNebula's post* *ears perk up* Soundtrack??? O.O

Jade_eyes-Thanks. And yeah, Trelane and Q were pains in the butt. Avoid the green stuff? That's half the fun!
Zeb-Thanks.
I like Prinn, too. Gald you got the Hitchhiker's reference. Having her think it was Tobin was deliberate, to show her confusion.
Tarals' just reacting normally to Scotty.
A soundtrack? I'd be honored.
earlybird-LOL, that'd be awesome. "Resistance issa more trouble than it's wurth." Thanks.
Daena-Three inches? Whoa, good to hear.
Thanks for the info. Farscape, man. Haven't seen that in
years
. No, Sisko hasn't read the Guide.
Yeah, it'd be nice if it was Jadzia. *Sigh* And lol, yup. She and Julian. Want more? You get more.
JediCarpet-Glad you liked Scotty and Geordi, there. LOL, stuff will get blown up soon.
Jaded_Girl-Yes, you did.
Sorry you died. Taral is basically hero-worshiping Scotty. Glad you liked Scotty and Geordi. And huzzah, you're alive!
Sorry about the shortness. DRL. Longer post next week. Along with maybe some plot development.
Here we go!
*****
Chapter Five: Preparations
The Defense Force soldiers moved down the dimly-lit corridor, the sounds of their boots clanging against the deck grating muffled by the omnipresent hum of machinery, by whirs and clicks. Alcoves lined the bulkheads, broken up by occasional consoles and other pieces of machinery.
The soldier in front knelt down and held up his hand as a Borg drone detached itself from its alcove and began striding forward, its gaze turned inward. The soldiers stepped to the side, allowing the drone to pass. One of the soldiers, a Duros, pulled a small locator beacon from his backpack and stuck it to a wall. The fusion piton at the end of the gray stick fused it to the bulkhead while a small transmitter at the other end began beeping.
Lieutenant Hox stepped out of the shadows of one of the alcoves. “Computer, freeze program.” The Suliban waited for the team to stop before speaking. “Okay, what went wrong?”
A human female raised her hand. “The beacon?”
Hox nodded. He walked over and pulled the beacon from the bulkhead. “Borg ships have begun displaying a nasty tendency to reconfigure themselves on the fly. Take a corridor, look back and there's a solid wall there instead of a path. The beacon gets absorbed into the ship and you've now alerted them to your presence.”
The Duros took the beacon back from Hox. “Then how can we tell where we are?”
Hox raised his left arm and pointed to a rectangular section on his armor. “We have tricorders built into our armor that allows us to keep track of where we are inside the cube. Don't you have sensing devices?”
The Duros nodded and pulled a small Koensayr DFC-5000 portable scanner. He flipped a switch on it and it sprang to life, beeping. The small screen lit up, displaying his immediate surroundings. The screen wavered and he smacked the side of it.
Hox looked at the squad and paced a bit, locking his reptilian eyes with each one in turn. “It's not certain if you'll be beaming aboard the Unicomplex. The higher-ups want to send small teams to ascertain the condition of those captured and set about an extraction. The Jedi will be there, too.”
Another soldier straightened up. “Then we might not be necessary,” he quipped.
Hox focused on the Corellian male. “Jedi aren't indestructible. You of all people should know that.” He shook his head. “Against the Borg, it will take everything we have to stop them.”
The Corellian sighed and shook his head. “I keep thinking about them taking Luke Skywalker. Luke Skywalker!” He threw his hands up into the air. “Can you believe it?”
The Suliban blinked twice. “About as much as when Captain Picard was taken by them.”
There was silence before the squad leader raised her 'borrowed' TR-116. “Computer reset from time index 0045.” The simulated Borg corridor dissolved around them, reforming into an earlier version.
Hox stepped back and turned around. He stepped into an alcove and tugged on a handle in the back wall, pulling open a hidden door and stepping into another corridor. A team of MACO's moved through a similar corridor. Some of them twitched, jumping at literal and metaphorical shadows. The squad leader, an Andorian male, raised his hand at an intersection. He held up a single finger and pointed to port, then two fingers and motioned to the starboard corridor.
Hox stepped forward. “Sure you want to split up?”
The Andorian straightened. “Computer, freeze program.” He looked back to Hox. “Only a few meters down the corridor. You're not the only one to have fought the Borg on their home turf.”
Hox walked forward past the MACO's. He feinted a punch at the Andorian before straightening out and grinning. “When I heard you were aboard, I knew the Collective's days were numbered,” he said, shaking the hand of MACO Captain Thareq.
Thareq returned the handshake, his antennae straightening out. “Haven't seen you since Chin'Toka, Hox. How'd you get such a cushy job at Deep Space Nine?”
Hox leaned his head back and laughed. “Family connections. How did you get posted on the flagship?”
Thareq smirked. “The same.” he motioned to his squad. “The best of the best. We'll turn the Unicomplex inside out and find those kidnapped. Assuming of course they haven't been assimilated.”
Hox looked away and shook his head. “That's what we'll find out.”
*****
Tenel Ka leaned back, allowing Tirsek's ushaan to pass over her head. She jabbed at the Andorian's midesction, tapping Tirsek with her lightsaber right abover her stomach. “You're dead, and that's a fact!” she shouted.
Tirsek grunted and stepped back, covering her stomach with one arm while holding out the other. “Even in training mode, those hurt!” She swished her melee weapon back and forth, the curved blade catching the light. “You're not hesitant anymore, Tenel Ka. Your blood sings out! Are you ready to save your beloved?”
A feral grin crossed Tenel Ka's face. She swung her rancor-tooth lightsaber back and forth, the hum from the plasma blade increasing. “I am, Tirsek. I shall find Jacen and save him from the Collective. Nothing will stop me.”
Tirsek straightened out and bent her wrists back, 'holstering' her weapons. “Despair no longer fuels you. But be careful, Tenel Ka. Andorians are a passinaote species, and we know passion burning too long can consume oneself.”
Off to the side of the training room, Lusa spoke up. “She's right. Even with our connection to the Force suppressed, we can still Fall.”
Tenel Ka looked to her friend and bobbed her head. “You are right, Lusa. I must remain vigilant.” She looked back to Tirsek and bowed. “Thank you for your help, Tirsek.”
Tirsek returned the bow, but winced as she bent over. “Damn, Tenel Ka. When you're on your game, you don't let up.”
Lusa tapped the deck plating with her right foreleg and smiled. “And that is a fact.”
*****
Please read and review. The next post will be on the third of November. Happy Halloween! And...
Wait, where the hell did October go?
Up!

Oooh ... looks like the NRDF strike teams are learning but good. Looks like another few dry runs oughta have it down. Even if they aren't in the first wave, they should be prepped ... either as reinforcements for the MACO's or as defense against boarders. Oooh ... I like the sound of Thareq ... he seems fun, in a pwnage-and-guts sorta way. Looks like TK's getting the upper hand in her sparring with Tiresk ... though I am glad that they're using safety weapons and somewhat pulled blows. Wouldn't want Tenel Ka getting knocked too hard in the wrong place while knocked up.
Then again, a good set of sparring armor'd help a lot ...
And I've been toying with soundtrack ideas for this for a while ... I'll post the first part(at the very least) sometime this week. It'll just be a bunch of YouTube links (with song titles and artist names in case said links croak) and a brief description of chappie-and-scene whatnot.

Also, in weather related news here on the west coast: our lovely pacific high that was keeping the heat here (which is not okay when related to humidity) finally broke. So now we've got somewhat of a chill. I like it. (And in other news... I only missed one question on the world war two part of my history quiz this week.
...
I... will be mostly sane now.
Maybe.
)
Farscape, man. Haven't seen that in years.
Reminder good, then? Good, good.
“It's not certain if you'll be beaming aboard the Unicomplex. The higher-ups want to send small teams to ascertain the condition of those captured and set about an extraction. The Jedi will be there, too.”
Another soldier straightened up. “Then we might not be necessary,” he quipped.
Right... and which Borg is he thinking of? The ones that just lay down and die on command?
Oh... they're practicing a rescue on the holodeck. Good! Get all those doubts out of their minds first about how they can pull off storming the collective, and THEN actually do it.
“You're not hesitant anymore, Tenel Ka. Your blood sings out! Are you ready to save your beloved?”
Of COURSE she is! This is Tenel Ka! (She... probably couldn't kick the collectives collective butts all by herself, but that doesn't mean she ain't gonna try!)
Good update. Want more. (When you're ready.
)

Nice build up to what's coming next. I'm sure they'll be glad for the training later.
Tenel is unstoppable indeed.

Zeb-Yeah, practice makes perfect. They'll see some action, but I'm not saying where.
LOL, thanks. I made Theraq up on the spot. I figure Hox and his team weren't the only MACO's in Starfleet. LOL, perhaps I should've described her outfit in detail. And can't wait to see what you've got.
Daena-Congrats on the only one question.
Sounds like a high score, there. And cool on the chill, although I prefer heat.
A good reminder, yeah. He's a bit naive, yes. And yeah, that's why they're doing it. She'll try, but will she succeed? And more coming now.
earlybird-Thanks.
Glad you liked those two, there.
Jade_eyes-Thanks.
And yeah, they will need it. Fall weather? Meh, I like it warm. Better than three feet of snow.
Here we go!
*****
Coruscant, Fleet Command
Traest Kre'fey paced, his white fur rippling. He occasionally glanced at the five-meter wide tactical hologram of the Coruscant System and the Borg presence at the last planet. His eyes flashed and his fingers clenched, the gloves preventing his claws from digging into the palms of his hand. “What are those bastards waiting for?”
Admiral Janeway approached him, walking away from one of the outer monitoring stations. “I'm as confused as you are, Traest. It's not like them to wait on the kill.”
The Bothan glanced back at Janeway and nodded curtly. “They're hovering on the edge of the system, like some vast predatory bird. One false move and we'll be picked apart and assimilated.”
Janeway nodded and half-smiled. “The Federation's made it through, Traest. So will the New Republic. You're a lot bigger than us, after all.”
Traest bared his fangs in a sardonic smile. “More for them to swallow and gain strength from, dear Kathryn. They'll whittle us down, using our own soldiers and ships against us until we're no more. There shall be no sending them to sleep, like Commander Data did above the skies of Earth.”
Janeway reached out and placed a hand on Traest's shoulder. “The Federation faces the same threat you do, and we've faced the Borg before. And we've won against them, or at least survived. I know what it's like to face off against them. I've been to the Unicomplex itself and barely survived. I thought the intervention of my future self had ended or at least curtailed their threat, but it seems I was wrong.”
“Future self?” Traest asked, furry eyebrows shooting up.
“Time travel.”
“Of course,” he said, groaning. He looked back at the hologram. “Wait, what is that?” He stepped forward and pointed to a small dot heading away from Coruscant. “Get me a reading on that ship leaving orbit. We're under lockdown for the moment.”
There was a smattering of confirmations before a human male spoke up. “General, the transponder matches with Senator Borsk Fey'lya's personal shuttle!”
Traest wheeled around and ran to the station, Janeway close behind. The officer jumped back as Traest sat down and held a headset up to his twitching ear. His free hand pushed several buttons. “Senator, what are you doing?” he finally asked.
The Bothan senator's voice came over the headset, scratchy and static-laced.
“Getting out, General. I suggest you do the same. Coruscant will fall, but I won't go down like a mynock clinging to the hull.”
Traest snarled. “This is cowardice at best, treason at worst. They'll never let you back here, Borsk.”
“Since there will be nothing left of the planet when the Borg are through, I won't be coming back. Farewell, Traest.”
And with that, the transmission ceased.
Both Traest and Janeway walked back to the tactical hologram. “Focus on sector 12-A. Magnify,” he ordered. The hologram of the Coruscant System zoomed in, focusing on a small shuttle. Various readouts and graphs surrounded it. “Their exit vector is opposite that of the Borg on Nabatu. Smart thinking, you bastard.”
Janeway glanced to Traest. “I'm guessing there's a history between you two?”
The Bothan shrugged. “Time travel,” he said, smiling slightly.
The Starfleet admiral nodded. “Gotcha.” She sighed and walked over to a small replicator mounted in the wall. “Coffee, black.” She waited for the cup of fuel to materialize before picking it up and sipping it. “Ugh, not the best,” she said, grimacing.
Traest paid her no mind as he stared at the hologram. “Was he right?” he muttered. “Should we just pull out?”
Janeway shook her head. “No. Picard was right when he said a line must be drawn. The galaxy may be big, but we'll eventually run out of places to hide from the Collective. We stop them now or die running.”
Traest sighed and his shoulders slumped. “You are right. I simply wish I knew how the Collective got here, or even why. Jedi? Our territory? Our technology?” He shook his head, fur flattening. “It doesn't make sense.”
Janeway shrugged. “The Collective makes little sense. First our technology, then us to our entire civilization. They want perfection, to raise our quality of life. But if that's elevation, I'll stick with the ground floor.”
Traest nodded. “Agreed. And I shall stay here until the walls tumble down and the lights go out.” He clenched his fist. “Join me on the
Ralroost
?”
Janeway smiled. “Why, delighted to.”

USS
Titan,
border with Borg territory
William Riker paced, walking five steps before turning on his heel and retreading the path on the bridge of his ship. His hands were clasped and back bent as he glanced at the command area and the empty seat next to his. He then stopped and looked at the main viewscreen before resuming his pacing.
Tuvok looked over from his tactical station. “Captain, there are easier ways to get to deck two.”
Riker paused and looked over at the Vulcan. “Is that sarcasm I detect?”
The dark-skinned tactical officer shook his head. “Merely a statement of fact, sir. And no, the situation behind the Neutral Zone has not changed. The Borg ships are staying on their side.”
“That'll change,” Riker said. He looked over to the port turbolift alcove as the door slid open and Admirals William Ross and Leonard James Akaar stepped out. “Sirs,” he said, straightening.
Ross waved him off. “No change with the Collective's forces, at least not yet. They're in a holding pattern, assimilating and mopping up any remnants of the Romulan Empire left behind.”
Akaar glanced at the viewscreen, his visage set in stone. “They'll move out, eventually. Why they halted is beyond me. They could've broken through. Perhaps the capture of those Jedi?” He shook his head, steel-gray ponytail swishing slightly. “Doesn't matter, though. It's given us the time we need to gather our forces and strike back.” His visage cracked and a predatory smile formed. “Not smart. Not smart at all.”
Riker nodded. “No, sir. Although perhaps a few more ships sent to the Unicomplex would've helped, say one of the newest models?” he said, eyebrows waggling slightly.
Akaar smirked, a downright frightening image. “Sorry, Will, but you're needed here and Deanna's needed on the
Kenobi
. And we need one of the 'newest models' as our flagship.” he reached over and patted Riker on the shoulder, sending him stumbling slightly. “She'll be all right.”
Riker regained his footing and rubbed the spot where Akaar had 'petted' him. His eyes half-closed as he focused on the bond he shared with his Imzadi. Though not Force-sensitive, the bond was nevertheless strong.
Be safe, my love.
He paused and stopped as he felt something... someone ruffle his hair. His hand went up and he smiled.
Okay, I will too.
*****
Next week, the
Kenobi
arrives...
Please read and review. The next post will be on the tenth. Up!

Super update. I can feel Will's restlessness and desire to be with Deanna.
Looking forward to how things shift with the Kenobi's arrival.

Borg prowling around the outer system, just hovering ... damn, I'd bet real money they're up to no good. They ain't just playin' tiddlywinks, as Bones might say. Fey'lya's runnin' for cover? Figures ... a part of me hopes that he gets interdicted by the Borg ... and winds up dying trying to avoid assimilation. LOL, Tuvok is certainly in rare form ... and they say Vulcans are humorless ... more like they're masters of smartass deadpan. I'd imagine they'd love
Steven Wright
. Akaar has a point ... if something goes wrong on this big rescue/assault, they'll need the
Titan
on hand.
Oh, and you'll see the first wave soon enough. I'm mostly going to stick to small updates on the soundtrack.

Hey man, osrry that I haven't reviewed in a while, things kept coming up. I'm surprised that Fey'lya thinks he can outrun the Borg. These guys eat up every single planet they can get their hands on, so I'm skeptical that he thinks he can escape them for good. I did like the the Hitchhiker's guide ref, but is the name Tobin supposed to be a reference to The Tobin's Guide from the Ghostbusters movies? If not, then I appologize. ANyways, I hope to see some Borg action soon. Queenie sure knows how to take her time to do anything interesting
