'Culnac' Series:

1st: 'Culnac's Logs'

2nd: 'At Any Cost'

3rd: 'The Power of the Q' (this one)

Disclaimer: Paramount owns DS9 and Voyager. Someone owns Stargate SG-1.

Warning: This is PG-13 because of language, suggestive sexual things, and it gets very Angst near the end.

Summary: Tom gets the power of the Q for several days, which means that Tom gets to fool around, but 'Every good thing must come to an end.' And this end comes crashing down on Tom.

Time Place: If you look at , it says that 'Death Wish' was supposed to take place before 'Threshold'. UPN aired it later on, but the Star dates say that 'Death Wish' did happen before 'Threshold'. In short, I'm going to do 'Death Wish' before I write about 'Threshold'. Oh, and the suicidal Q is going to be known as QSU (Q suicidal) and the annoying Q from the Enterprise-D is going to be known as himself, Q.

The Power of the Q- Ch.1- On the Enterprise-D

After Q snapped the men back into existence on Voyager, QSU tried to hide, but Q always found him.

"We'll have a trial." Janeway said to both of the Qs. "A federation trial, by the book."

"A trial?" Q asked astonished. He looked at QSU. "I'll do it if he does." Q pointed (with his pointer finger) to QSU.

"Fine." Then they went on to discuss what would happen if one won and the other lost.

"My beloved Captain," Q said flirtatiously. "I want to take one of your crew members and give them the powers of the Q for one day. Then after that he or she gives us their decision on the Continuum." Captain Janeway didn't like the idea.

"Okay. You can choose." She finally said, thinking that it might give some insight on the Q continuum.

"Good. I've already chosen him. It's the man at the helm!" I stood up and Q looked at me. "Wait a second. Blonde hair, tall, blue eyes, I remember you... Tommyboy! Good to see you again." Q trying to act like he didn't see me on the Asgard ship only one month before.

"Hi, idiot from hell." I replied, also acting like I didn't see him on the Asgard ship. Q laughed, but the rest of the crew was very confused.

"How do you two know each other?" Janeway interrupted.

"It's a lovely story Captain. I'll tell it to you, your senior staff, and the rest of the Bridge."

Tom Paris, a 16 year-old, blonde, spiky-haired teen was walking to a turbolift. His father and he were going to Star base 301 and the Enterprise-D was taking them there. He was told to meet the Captain. This was Tom's third time on the Enterprise, he knew most of the crew, but Tasha Yarr, a good friend, was missing. She had died when he was there and she was one of the nicer people on the Enterprise. Tom always had to meet the Captain every time he came, he was getting used to Picard. Tom got into the turbolift and called for the Bridge. When it stopped he came out. Riker and Picard were standing talking to a Starfleet Admiral Tom didn't recognize. The Admiral saw him and snapped his fingers and appeared next to Tom.

"Hmmm." The man said inspecting Tom. "Blonde hair, Blue eyes, tall, and skinny, you look nothing like your father Tommyboy!"

"Thanks. And don't call me Tommyboy, its Tom." Tom looked stern as he tried to find out who this Admiral was. Then it clicked, this was Q, he always annoyed the Enterprise-D crew.

"Hello." Q shook Tom's hand. "I'm the most omnipotent thing in the galaxy and I'm-"

"The idiot from hell." Tom smiled as he insulted Q.

"What a smart little kid you got here Jean-Luc!" Q patted Tom on the head. "A fast response, too. Nice insults! Well, I will have to go. Goodbye, Riker, Jean-Luc, and Tommyboy!" Q smiled and disappeared.

"What did he want?" Tom asked moving towards the Captain and first officer.

"We never got a chance to find out." Riker said. "I wish you would be around more often so we don't get to hear what he wants." He smiled.

"No problem, but I think I'll leave Q to you guys." Tom and the Captain went into his Ready Room to talk.
