Chapter One:

A Strange New Enemy

Picard sat down in his chair, waiting on a report from Data.

Data spoke up eventually.

"A Klingon vessel read on the peremiter, Captain. Reports from the vessel's Captain report that they have several injured crewmen.

Picard seemed a bit dissapointed.

"Well, report to Dr. Crusher."

"Of course, Captain."

Data walked from his seat while La Forge pulled in the Klingon ship.

"Sir, this ship is a bit..... odd, in structure, I mean. It doesn't seem like a Klingon nor a Federation ship."

"Commander Worf."

"Yes, sir?"

Picard lowered his voice, almost to a whisper.

"Does it seem like a Klingon ship to you?"

"Hmm... No. I don't think it is one. I've never seen anything like it."

Picard rubbed his chin.

Beverly Crusher looked up from her desk. She saw a Klingon Captain enter the room.

"Hello, welcome the Enterprise, Captain...?"

"Gloor, thank you. My injured crewmen are heading this way. I just wanted to say.....you don't remember me, do you?"

Beverly shook in surprise.

"I... don't know what you--"

A Klingon Commander brought in an injured officer.

"This officer is injured, make way."

Gloor immeadiatly put his attention to the injured officer, and Beverly went to treat him, but she still wondered what he meant...

Picard put his attention to a huge ship coming from the side of the Enterprise. An image from the ship blasted upon the Enterprise's viewing screen. The.... thing on the screen was...apparently the large triangular ship's Captain, but Jean-Luc couldn't tell. He wore a black helmet, with technological attachments to it. He also had some kind of respitory device.

Picard stood up and confronted the frightening image upon the screen.

"I am Captain Jean-Luc Picard of the U.S.S. Enterprise-E. I would like to have a I.D. of you."

"I am Darth Vader, Sith Lord and Comandeer of the Galactic Empire the II's REAPER. This is our land space, leave."

Picard's voice got a bit angrier.

"This sector is part of the Federation. There is no such thing as a Galactic Empire in Federation records, most certainly not a second one."

"There is no such thing as Galactic Federation in Empire records. There will be no more small talk. Prepare to board.

Suddenly the Reaper shot some sort of Tracking Signal to the Enterprise. The Enterprise was slowly drawn into its hanger.

In the hanger, several Stormtroopers were awaiting outside of the the Enterprise.

The crew, including the boarded Klingons, stepped out, awaiting to meet with Vader.

Vader, and a man with Green armor and a Helmet, stepped inside of the hanger.

Picard stepped up to Vader.

Vader glared at Picard and said, "I brought a guest. This is my new personal advisor, Boba Fett."

"Hello, Mr Fett. But that is not the matter at hand, Lord Vader. We need to discuss the Empire/Federation things."

Vader put his hands behind his cape.

"I already have a solution, Captain."

Later

Picard, Beverly, and Data sat in a cell in the holding chambers of the Reaper.

Vader walked in with Fett.

"Hello, officers. We've made….use of the rest of your crew, but….. you three will just get a simple execution."

The three officers looked as Boba Fett raised his weapon…..
