I do not own any character, object, or etc. relating to either Star Trek or StarCraft, but original concepts, such as plot, are mine.
Prelude
Side 1
Our story begins in World War II. Western Europe was at war with Germany, and it wasn't going well. A growing peace movement in the United States caused both Japan and Germany not to consider them a threat. On July 25th 1944, Germany successfully conquered all of Europe, and less than a month later began its invasion of the United States. During all of this, Japan had been secretly developing nuclear weapons, and on September 2nd, 1945, they obliterated Los Angeles with a test nuke, forcing the United States to surrender. Germany and Japan then formed the United Earth government centered in Germany.
80 years later however, a large resistance force began to revolt, and in 2028 they assassinated every government leader in a coup d'état, claiming control of it. Determined to distance themselves from their predecessors, they refused to execute the people in the government. Instead they put them and their families on a large, generational ship on autopilot and shot it towards the other end of the galaxy.
After several hundred years, the ship reached its destination, and the autopilot deactivated itself. The enclosed, comforting environment the ship had provided ceased to be a factor, and people began to colonize the planet they called Korhal. However, several struggles for power ensued over the next few hundred years, with the organization known as the Confederacy coming to power at the end by obliterating the planet Korhal with nuclear weapons, and in doing so claimed dominion over most of colonized space. The rest, you know as StarCraft.
Side 2
This part of the story begins towards the end of the 24th century. Captain Jean-Luc Picard, captain of the USS Enterprise-E, had just returned from his mission to Romulus in which he had an encounter with his Romulan-created clone. Thanks to his efforts, peace talks had begun, and the Romulan Empire was considering allying itself with the United Federation of Planets. But at what cost? His friend for many years, Data, was dead. He felt Data was as much a sentient being as any other member of his crew, and took his death hard.
After that, he had been offered the rank of admiral, and he'd taken it. Riker had been promoted to Captain and given command of the Enterprise-E. About 8 years later, he'd been promoted to vice-Admiral, while Picard had been promoted to Fleet Admiral, now head of Starfleet Academy.
Since the USS Voyager had returned from the Delta quadrant, their experiences there had provided invaluable technological information, and soon after the slip-stream drive had been put into production. Last year, in Picard's theoretical technology class, one of his students had submitted a thesis on using artificial wormholes as a mode of transit. Upon reading it, the cadet had been given a field commission as an ensign and transferred to Starfleet Engineering, where they began to work on a prototype. After about 6 months, the prototype was ready for testing, and Picard was sent to a new ship to oversee the testing of the new engine.
