The Q Council

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 17746

The Q Council met on the planet Betazed. It was in the Forests of Peace where several small slug-worms crawled up onto a rock to bask in the sun. The Q became the creature's brains. All was communicated to the others instantly.

Most of the Q liked the idea of Voyager being able to go back and forth between the Delta Quadrant and the Alpha Quadrant. One Q wondered what was to happen to the furry Voyager.

A shuttlecraft flew overhead. The Q became transtator parts inside it.

A young Q had an idea. Those Federation people cared about other sentients for some reason. Tell them about one instant in the future where they will save lives. They will want to go back to the Delta Quadrant.

Agreed, said the others. But we will leave open the option of them coming back to the Alpha Quadrant.

Why? asked a Q who was now the entire transporter system.

Because. They saved us once. It's only fair.

Three seconds passed. During this, the Q council debated the concept of being fair to Voyager. If what they said was spoken by humans, billions of years would have passed.

Finally, they agreed that Voyager needed to be in the Delta Quadrant and baby, it didn't matter what Voyager wanted.

"Captain's Log. We are now thirty-five years away from the Alpha Quadrant. The human's Alpha Quadrant.

  1. But I still don't understand why the furries want to stay here. Wildman I can understand but the others? Is there something they aren't telling us?"
