Petra: Glad you liked it!

Kara: Kyp is smart, but is he smart enough to figure out what's going on before the Queen gets her hooks into him?

Sabriel: Sorry to say, but there's not much revelation coming in tonight's post either.

FLYSWATTER: Luckily, the portion of the stae I'm in has been spared the worst. And the Borg should give you the creeps, so i've at least partially done my job.

Jedi_Perigrine: Welcome to the fic! Glad you think I've captured the voices of both universes, which isn't the easiest thing to do. Though finding stuff for everybody to do has given me problems as well. The line you enjoyed so much is based on one from Allston's novels (I think) though at the moment I can't remember which one.
I'll be happy to add you the PM list.

Jade_eyes: Yes, let's hope the Queen isn't given more pieces to play with.


Okay, here comes the next post!


"You can't be serious, Commander Loran," Riker said when Face made his request. "I can certainly understand giving your comrades time to get off that cube, but that's no reason to put more lives on the line."

"If the Jedi think there's some danger aboard the cube, then we had better check it out. The last time we ignored them, we wound up with a dictator in power, and millions dead, not to mention the billions of lives ruined by Palpatine's tyranny."

"And the tyranny of the Collective is far greater than that of any one man," Riker said.

"I'm beginning to understand that," Face said. "But what you need to realize is that it took the children of Palpatine's lieutenant, his right hand if you will, to lift that shroud. One of those two is aboard that Borg cube, and we're going to need him back."

"With your permission, Captain, I would like to take an away team across and see if we might be able to offer Master Skywalker any assistance," Worf said from the tactical station. "Even if it's an away team of one."

"Worf, that's hardly a logcal step of action," Riker said, turning to look back at the Klingon.

"Nevertheless, one warrior is predisposed to aid another. Master Skywalker has shown himself to be a man of honor. It would be a grave act of dishonor to ignore the opportunity to offer him our aid."

"Not to mention give you one more stab at the Borg," Riker said. "Somehow, I think you always regretted letting the captain face the Queen alone."

"The captain needed to face his enemy on his own," Worf said. "But there is no reason that the Skywalkers should have to do the same."

"If the Borg have indeed raised a new Queen, and I think this likely, then we must be prepared for the fact that she will be expecting either myself or the captain, as we each now have scores to settle with the Borg," Data said.

"You're saying that we shouldn't help them?" Troi asked.

"No," Data said. "I am saying that we should. The Borg will know that we will suspect them of preparing some sort of defense against either myself or the captain. So they will naturally expect that we will not attack them, but rather let them deal with the unkown quantity the Republic represents."

"And instead, we will move against them," Picard said. "Worf, prepare an away team from those who were with us during the battle for First Contact," Picard said. "And then I want you to do all you can to put a stop to the Borg, once an for all."

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


That's all for now, I'm afraid. I'll do my best to be back next week with a longer post, but my muse really needs to start beating her way into my head, it seems.

Force be with you,

Tych_sel

grin Even though there aren't any big revelations, as you put it, it was still well executed. XD

(Wanna know something funny? Ever since I started reading this fic, I began to watch Star Trek again, though the only ones I could find are Voyager and Enterprise. XD)

Thanks for the update.

I would love to see Worf over there telling the Borg Queen to "Assimilate this!" laugh

I do hope they have a plan. My questions are this. I still wonder why The Enterprize crew can not lock on L/M and deploy the transportor. Plus since The Borg have delt with Data and Picard in the past wouldn't they be purpared for these two, in particular, to try something sepectacular and cause distruction regaurdless of a new Queen? I hope you understand what I am trying to say because I am having trouble putting it into words. Great post and thanks. rose

Kara: And as you expected, Luke & Mara won;t be forced to handle the Borg on their own.

Petra: That's a very good question.

Sabriel: Good to hear you're watching some Trek again, even if Voyager and Enterprise aren't usually the best representations.

Leona: I actually tried to imagine Michael Dorn saying some of the dialogue before posting, so I'm glad I got some of it right!

Jade_eyes: Or she's at least going to be having a large problem...

Perigrine: I'll certainly try!

divapilot: Nope. Wouldn't happen.

FLYSWATTER: Hopefully I'll be addressing your concerns in tonight's post, at least on the transporter question.

And here's the next post!


A shimmer of light appeared in the gloom of the cube, five pillars that respolved into five black-clad figures. As the shimmer faded entirely, the figure in the lead raised a finger to his chest. "Worf to Enterprise," he said. There was no response, only dead air. "It appears that the Borg are once again interfering with communications," he said. He gestured for the security team to fan out. Two pairs flanked Worf on either side, and the team began to move forward.

"I haven't been able treach Master Skywalker, or the other Jedi," Christine Vale said from Worf's right."

"Communications will be difficult, due to Borg interference," Worf said. "We could be within steps of Master Skywalker and not know he was there." As if on cue, three drones flew from a corridor the T-junctioned with the one Worf and his team were making their way through. Though perhaps, the Kingon thought, flew wasn't quite the right word.

The Borg smashed into the wall, and Worf's phaser came up, joined by those of the rest of the away team. But the phaser quickly came down as a pair of figures emerged, figures that were far from Borg.

"I guess Face is more persuasive than I thought," Corran Horn said, the orange flight suit he wore almost giving off a glow in the dimness of the cube. "Though it looks like you're a bit late to the party."

"I am sure there will be plenty of party left," Worf said. "I presume that was the last resistance you faced?"

"I figure there's a few that we might have managed to avoid," Corran replied. "Though with Kyp stomping around like he was, it's a wonder the entire ship doesn't know we're here."

"They probably knew we were here from the moment you lightsabered that first drone," Kyp said. "It would have been easier if they'd just scurried off into some corner."

"The Borg rarely retreat," Worf said. "But I do believe you're correct that we cannot depend on the element of surprise to aid us for too much longer. Have you been able to locate Master Skywalker?"

"No," Kyp said. "Even through the Force, I can only get the barest glimmer of his presence. He's still alive, and relatively unharmed."

"Mara as well," Corran said. "Though if I'm reading her sense right, she's getting more than a little frustrated. Which doesn't bode well for the Borg."

"Then we had best get moving," Vale said. "There's no point loitering about when there's work to be done."

"There's also no point in charging in half-cocked," said one of the other away team members, and ensign whose name Worf couldn't quite recall at the moment. "Isn't that what got us in trouble in the first place?"

"With the Borg, it's impossible to know all the details until the last second," Vale said. "We've just got to be ready for anything."

"We will also need to be prepared for what we cannot expect," Worf said. "It's impossible to say how many species they may have assimilated, and what knowledge they might have gained."

"Too bad they didn't gain a healthy respect for Jedi," Kyp said. It would have made this whole sitation a lot simpler."

"In my experience, there's nothing about the Borg that is simple, Jedi Durron," Worf said. "But I agree that it is time we move on. No doubt the collective is aware of our presence."

"Just out of curiosity," Corran asked, "do you have a quick way out of here once we do find Luke and Mara?"

"It's unlikely we can rely on our transporters," Worf said. "Since we beamed over, we have lost communications with the Enterprise. Unless we are able to restore a transmission signal, those aboard the ship will have difficulty locking on to us."

"Great," Kyp said, sarcastically. "Especially given that the Borg destroyed our fighters."

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


Force be with you,
