Resurrection

Set at the climax of "EndGame" and immediately post. Admiral Janeway thought she had outwitted the Borg Queen but she was wrong. The Collective decided to replace her with the only individual in the galaxy that posed an existential threat to them: Captain Kathryn Janeway herself.

Admiral Janeway grimaced and suppressed a scream as the nanoprobes coursed through her body. It was almost over and she could feel the virus spreading throughout the Collective, they had won. She and her reckless younger self. She watched through what was left of her vision as the Queen started to disintegrate before her. The Queen fell to the floor, her limbs detached and scattered. Janeway could sense her thoughts and yes, feelings, the woman who had once been an individual of species 126 felt a mixture of fear and relief. Then something else that was only Borg. A sense of triumph. Janeway was fading fast but she heard the Queen's last thoughts. "No Admiral, it is you that underestimated us. Transwarp technology gives us the ability to travel through both space and time. I have always known this day would come and have prepared for it. You forget your younger self was partially assimilated when she dared to enter Unimatrix Zero. As we speak, I am completing the transference of my consciousness into Seven. She will then transfer my consciousness into Captain Janeway. She will be the new Borg Queen..." and with that last thought passing between them the transwarp hub disintegrated and they were both no more...
