What Demifox Synizn knows of the situation (part 3)

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 6956

"The analog tried to wrest control of the ship away from the crew, but only ended up managing to crash the Voyager into a nearby Terra like world," the demifox sighs. "HOWever, the ship survived without any major damage, as the crew was able to get her flying again soon afterwards.

"The Voyager's crew had abandoned ship when it became clear that their ship was going to crash, and thus were not around to stop what happened next."

Demifox Synizn licked his lips and shook his head, still not sure what to think of the whole thing.

"The analogous Seven of Nine had survived the crash landing, and had even managed to somehow get outside the ship. She had been so badly shaken and rattled by the rough landing, however, that she soon fainted afterwards. Then, a young human man of Oriental descent, found her and mistook her for being dead. The man's name was Scott Chen.

"Chen was special in several ways, not the least of which was the incredible things that kept happening to him. Not the least of which was....Chen is a duplicate or something like that of another Scott Chen, Scott Prime. It seems that a LONG time ago, the original Chen had been on a quest for imortality, and found that by somehow harvesting what the Voyager called Chaos Energy he would be reborn anew within a special chamber each time he died. He was so successful, initially, that he'd impressed what would eventually become the Borg Queen....but the queen noted that while the initial run of Scott Prime worked.....it was beginning to malfunction....the whole thing becoming more and more deranged as time went on. She decided that the best thing for her venture would be to use cybernetics and such, and the Queen soon conquered her people, and so it went. Scott kept on being regenerated, time after time, helpless to stop it...and escaping the hell he'd created for himself.

"See, the chaos energy had an unfortunate side effect. It caused the damnedest things to happen around and TO Scott. The regeneration process was by no means perfect, for it kept spawning more and more copies of Scott...forming something of a mass mind....in a sense. Upon each regeneration, the newest Scott would have memories of what the other Scott had experienced. That, plus the fact that Scott had been regenerating and being reborn so many times, and reproduced so many times, that the Scotts soon forgot how they'd come to be. All they knew is that every time they left the room they'd awoken in, more strangeness was going to befall them. Some spend their entire lives within those rooms, slowly going insane from intense loneliness.

"The Scott Chen that found the analogous Seven was one of those who'd grown so tired of staying in his room, that'd he'd gone out rather than be alone.

"Scott had been dismayed to find out that he was not even on his homeworld: Earth, for there was this spaceship he'd seen from various tapes from a science fiction show that showed upon one of those Golem devices they call television. Scott knew that he couldn't be on Earth, but perhaps the crew of the Voyager could help him by protecting him from the weirdness that seemed to dog him. It wasn't much of a hope, but Scott was desperate. Instead, he found the Borg, and accidently woke her up.

"Scott got assimilated by the analog, and he and Seven were making plans on how to assimilate the whole of the Voyager....when the strange nature of Scott's memories struck the Borg Collective to the core. EVERY last Borge drone, high to low, was infected by Scott's memories, and were driven into deeper and deeper insanity. The Borg had assimilated someone that they should NOT have, and were going to pay for it.

"Scott's memories broke his connection to the Collective just long enough for him to shut himself down....so as to not betray that universes Federation by what he knew from the shows he'd watched on television. He blacked out to the sound of the analogous Seven of Nine screaming in full bore terror as to what she and the Collective were experiencing.

"What was actually happening was that the memories had formed an entity within the Borg Collective, and it was reaching out to claim the Collective as It's own, and playing merry hell with the Collective in the process!

The crew of the Voyager found Scott near death, and were able to revive him within the Sick Bay of the ship, and learned of basically what had happened to Scott with the other Seven. After a near heart attack upon hearing the more human Seven of Nine (and going so far as to scream while armed with a chair: "Keep that B#$ch away from me! I will NOT be assimilated AGAIN!", he and the others soon discovered that the memories were acting like a computer virus, and were in the process of compromising the assimilation nantites (little machine the size of bloodcells that can convert almost anything living they are injected into Borg). The Scott virus was going to start to make the nanites change the other Seven into something else. Considering the nature of the Scott computer virus....it could almost be anything.

  1. "Turns out the nanites turned the analogous Seven into a small antimatter bomb that was in the final stages of countdown to detonation....." the mage goes on. "Oh, and before you ask.....
