ooh, you are evil at cliffies. Great post though, and if I were Mara or Luke, I'd be getting just a little nervous.

Wow great crossover! I've just read the whole thing in one sitting grin

I just knew that a new Queen would be coming along. L/M can't have too easy of a time now can they?

Please add me your your PM list. I'm greatly enjoying this.

YIKES! Now what? That's a big task, to take out all those drones. Luke and Mara need a little help from their friends, I think. Can't wait for the next update!

Seems like L/M are in for a big battle. I am surprized that they do not have a back up plan with Picard and use the transporter. I can understand that a Jedi would have trouble with the idea of thier cells being scrambled and then put back together but sometime one must do what one does not want to do. I have to think that also the Queen is not as understanding as she thinks she is about The Force. Maybe the Jedi can be assimulated but I am not so sure that the collective can be since it involves a life force within the cells and not mecanical bits and peices that the Borg obtain by conquest. Thanks for the double post and great job. rose

Uh Oh! This doesn't look good for Luke and Mara, especially when the clock is ticking...

Great update. Hope you enjoyed your break.

Really liked the description of the Borg Queen being put together. grin

"Yeah, somehow, I don't think seeing the Borg adapt to our sabers would be a good thing, But I'm starting to get…"

"Don't say it," Mara said. "Bad things always seem to happen whenever someone finishes what you were about to say."


Oh hell no, don't say it! tongue That farmboy should know better. shame_on_you grin

Kara: My trip was good, though it would have been better if I'd seen the Brewers win both games I went to. Luke and Mara will probably have a good plan, and they might, just might, be able to count on a little extra help.

Jade_eyes: The Collective is like a hydra, now that you mention it. Just when you think you've got them beat, they start regenerating.

Mara: You're thinking it's one of the Queens from Trek, right? But you're right, things are taking a turn for the worse.

Petra: I've had plenty of practice at being evil with cliffies, so I'll take that as a compliment. I'd be getting nervous if it were me, but Luke & Mara are just too cool under pressure.

Force_Chick: One sitting?! That's one heck of a read. Glad you're enjoying this, now that you've found it, and I'll be happy to add you to the list.

divapilot: Yeah, they'll get by with a little help from their friends.

FLYSWATTER: Don't count Picard out yet...

tannim: That's the things with the Borg. They just don't quit.

smiley: Luke and Mara do their best work when they're under pressure, though.

Leona: Oh hell no, don't say it! That farmboy should know better. You'd think, wouldn't you?


Okay, here comes the next post, which has been delayed due to the storms ripping through Wisconsin this weekend. I've been trying to keep my computer off with all the lightning in the area, even though I've got a surge protector hooked up. No sense in taking chances, right?


Corran's X-Wing broke from formation a moment after Kyp felt the shift in the other Jedi's emotions. Kyp hit the switch on his comm panel, opening a private line with the Corellian Jedi, whose flight was already moving to follow. "Corran, what's going on?"

"I don’t know how I know, but something's gone wrong on the cube," Corran said. "Can't you feel it?"

Kyp focused his attention on the cube. He could feel Luke and Mara, which meant that they were probably still alive and as yet unassimilated. But he could also feel a pressure from the cube, almost like a call. It must be that which Corran was referring to. "I think I know what you're talking about," Kyp said. "So what do we do?"

"I think we have to go in," Corran said, and find out if it's simply the Borg creating this effect, or something else."

"Luke will have sensed it."

"Luke has other things on his mind, I'm sure," Corran said. "Both he and Mara are probably up to their necks in Borg, which means they may not be focusing on the moe subtle nuances."

"So what do we do with our squadrons?" Kyp asked.

"I'm going to turn mine over to Janson," Corran said. "He'll be able to come up with something for them to do that'll throw off the Borg."

"I'll let Loran take mine, I think," Kyp said. "He's spent enough time with Wedge Antilles to have figured out how to command multiple squadrons."

"Give you two minutes make the arrangements," Corran said, then cut the line, as he switched to another frequency. Kyp turned his attention to the board, and called up a channell with Loran.

"Loran," he heard as the other accepted the signal.

"Corran, it's Durron. We're sensing something a little funny over on the cube."

"Funny as in ha-ha funny, or funny as in 'this isn't good, and is probably going to kill us all' funny?"

"Probably the latter," Kyp said. "Corran an I are going head over and see if we can figure out what's causing it."

"Durron, isn't it bad enough that Picard wants to blow the cube to bits with the Skywalkers abaord? You're simply throwing your lives away."

"Not if it means Luke and Mara get out of there. Besides, I figure you can get Picard to listen to reason and back down."

"He's dealt with the Borg more than we have. Frankly, I don’t know that I would have a problem dropping that cube down the Maw if it weren't for the fact that the Skywalkers are aboard."

"Then write us off," Kyp said. "But if there's something going on over there that's going to put more lives at risk, then we've got a duty to deal with it. And I'm not going to put my squadron at risk, which is why I'm turning command over to you."

"Well, at least you haven't lost your mind completely," Face deadpanned. "I'll see what I can arrange with Picard. But I'd suggest that you be ready to get the kriff out of there pretty quick."

"Thanks. May the Force be with you, Face."

"May it be with you, Jedi Durron. I have a feeling you'll need it more than I will."

++++++++++++


That's all for now. More to come next week!


Force be with you,

Tych_sel

Understand about all that rain and lightning. Just make sure you have your floaties on. Looks like L/M are about to have some company. Borgs give me the creeps! Great job and thanks. rose
