Yet Another Dimension

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 17688

"How are the crew taking it, Chakotay?"
"Not so good." he replied. The human's commanders sat at a table in the beach resort, slumped over some drinks Neelix called 'Mai Tais'.

"I don't understand." Janeway said. "Why did Q dump is in this dimension? That was just mean!"

"Another drink, milady?" asked a waiter.
Janeway looked up. Q stood there, wearing sandals, an apron and an extraordinarily loud Hawiain shirt.
"Q!" Janeway exclaimed. "What's going on?"
"Send us to our home dimension."
"My dear lady." Q scowled. "Do you always let the hired help become so impudent?"
"Enough with the mind games, Q. We want to go home. Our real home. Will you send us there?"
"And miss all the fun?
"Actually, Captain. I'm here to deliver a warning. Quit messing around with reality like that. You're lucky enough I was able to convince the continium to banish you here to this dreary dimensional corner and not utterly destroy you all."
Q snapped his fingers and leashes and collars appeared around the two human's necks. Q held the leashes in his right hand.
"STAY!" he commanded and gave them a jerk. The two tumbled, taking the table with them. Chakotay scrambled up but Q was gone.

Scott leaned against one of the mutitude of computers set around the astrometrics lab. A giant overhead view of the Delta Quadrant was set up on the screen. Most of the bridge crews stood in the room, wearing glum expressions.

"This doesn't look good, folks." human Ensign Kim said. "Long range scans show, well, nothing. Class M planets, a few space-faring races, but..."
Human Chakotay stepped up. "What Ensign Kim is trying to say is that it looks like the Preservers never made it around the galaxy in this dimension."
Scott gasped. The Preservers had been a race of beings that spread humanoid DNA throughout the galaxy billions of years ago. Without them, most of the Federation wouldn't exsist! Who knows how many races they were responsible for jumpstarting? Vulcans...Klingons...humans? Scott felt faint.

  1. Scott doesn't take this well at all. He feels responsible.
