WAR OF GENERATIONS
Based on the TV Show "Star Trek: The Next Generation"

A bright flash erupted across Janeway's field of vision. Before she could even let out a cry she found herself seated on top of a carpeted floor. Looking around she realized she was aboard a galaxy class starship. Stiffly and shakenly she stood up taking in the sight of the well worn bridge. Her foot then collided with a soft mound.

The mound gave a barely audible whimper and to Janeway's shocked suprise rose to face her. Standing, rather rumpled, in front of her was none other than Captain Picard of the Starship Enterprise.

" Picard?" breathed Janeway in utter shock.

For a moment the man didn't seem to recognize her. He looked at her in muddled confusion and squinted as if he had been in pitch darkness for days. Suddenly a dawn of recolection crossed his face.

" Captain Kathryn Janeway, " he said as though he was greeting an old friend.

" Hello, Jean-Luc," replied Janeway repeating the gesture, " How is it possible?"

Seeing Picard's confusion she continued, " How are you here? Of all people?"

" Kathryn," interrupted Picard, " What are you trying to get at? After all it's you who is aboard my ship...," he paused as the relization hit him, " After Voyager's disappearance. It is I who should be asking how this," he gestured towards her, " is possible."

" I can't give you any answers, Jean-Luc," replied Janeway.

" And you won't need to," came a crystal likevoice from above them. Suddenly a ball of light appeared between the two jumped backin suprise and the light bobbed as though it was laughing.

" Where is my crew?" demanded Picard, " And why have you brought us here?"

Janeway took sudden notice of how quiet the bridge was. She had been so shocked to end up here of all places.

" They are fine, atthe will be joining us soon. And then we may begin."

Beforeeither captain could ask what was about to begin a tendril stretched out and in a flash of light three other men appeared. One of them was Captain Sisko. The others wore oldStarfleet uniforms.

" Spock!" stuttered Picard in complete shock as he sawwhat appeared to be the younger version of the man he had met, "What the devil is going on?"

The ball bobbed again. An amused tone filled the air as the ball seemed to say, "Ah, the representatives ofStarfleet are assembled. Your forces likewise are being preparedby my counterparts, do not fear."

"Why have you brought us here?" Janeway, Picard, and Sisko said at the same time.

Theman in the older uniform who lookedrather bedazzled said, " What's going on?"

"Such mighty authorities you carry. Perhaps I can change that," said the ball. Then stretching outmultiple tendrils it touched each of the captains andSpock Everything disappeared in a flash of light.
