To Boldly Go
Chapter 1: No Cheese
2048
Captain Kevin Sugimori zipped up the front of his blue Earth Starfleet uniform as he got ready to watch the Warp 2 Test that Jonathan Archer was about to do.
"What's wrong, Kev?" Archer said as he saw Sugimori walk out of the Lift, "You look like somethings wrong."
"Naw," Sugimori said, "I just couldn't sleep well last night."
"Eh, luckily I'm going up then," Archer said, "Kev, can i ask you a favor?"
"Sure," Sugimori said, nodding, "Anything for you old friend."
"If... I don't make it," Archer said, "I want you to take care of Porthos."
"Ok," Sugimori said, "But it's just a warp flight... you should be fine."
"Just remember, don't give him a lot of cheese."
:"OK..."
Archer didn't give Sugimori time to argue as he was urged to get to the NX-Alpha.
Five hours later
Sugimori ran into the infirmary alongside Jeffrey Robinson and Admiral James Forrest.
"Well?" Admiral Forrest asked the doctor, a Denobulan named Phlox.
"I'm sorry..." Phlox said, "The test was a success, but Jonathon Archer has died... I'm sorry..."
"I'll go tell Porthos," Sugimori said, "Archer put him in my care..."
"Go, Captain" Forrest said.
April 22, 2050
Sugimori grinned as he walked through the corridor of his new command, the NX-02 Columbia.
"Now Captain," Admiral William Black said, "You will have a Vulcan first officer... However, One Vulcan in particular petitioned to become your XO."
"Who would that be?"
"Bridge."
"Admiral," Sugimori said, "I'm about to take this ship outta spacedock to boldly go where no fool in a spaceship has gone before, i think i should know who my XO is."
As the Turbolift doors opened, The Vulcan female in the captain's chair stood up and turned around.
"Well," Sugimori said as he stepped onto the bridge, "I'll be damned... K'ey'ra, I haven't seen you in ages!"
"I'm glad you remembered the name i told you to call me," K'ey'ra, who was formerly Kira Ford, said, "Fate seems to have stuck us on the same ship."
"It seems that you two know each other." Admiral Black said, "I'm Curious... well, that project of yours is in the main shuttleport... it's a piece of work."
"Thanks, Admiral... Permission to leave spacedock as soon as you disembark?"
"Granted, Kevin," Black said, "I know you would rather be Captaining the Enterprise, but Hernandez has earned it... Archer would want you to be on this ship... you were like a brother to him, i think."
"Thank you, Admiral," Sugimori said, "See you after we check out this anomaly."
"Kevin," the Admiral said, "You have been briefed on the visitors borrowing the secondary shuttleport, right?"
"Yep, Members of Operation Overdrive... an Earth Starfleet backed Ranger Project... I am totally aware... though i don't think it is safe to have rangers on board."
"Understood, but just let them integrate into your crew."
"Aye sir," Sugimori said as Black shook his hand and made it to the Turbolift.
"Be careful kev."

"Captain's Star Log, April 22, 2050. The Columbia is heading towards the Dalron Singularity. Vulcan Star maps have revealed that this singularity shoots out some interesting stuff... this will be a good test of the Columbia's new Weapons, and the new Reaction engine, a modified Engine that will automatically adjust our speed and heading if needed."
"Captain," K'ey'ra said, "There seems to be some fluctuations in our warp field... Nothing too iffy, but i would recommend drop- Sir... Intruder alert... Engineering."
"I'll go," Sugimori said, "This trip's been so boring, i think i need some excitement... wanna come along for ol time sake?"
"Sure," K'ey'ra said.
When the two got to engineering, they found the engineering crew bound by vines and knocked out..
"My scanner reads two life signs... one human..." K'ey'ra said, dropping her voice to a whisper, "one Borg."
"Maddie, Xander, is that you?"
"Kev?" Xander Bly said, not looking too badly for a sixty year old man... Actually, he looked only 24.
"Kevin?" Maddie said, stoic as ever after her assimilation into the Borg Collective over forty years ago. Needless to say, she still looked young. No doubt because of her magical nature.
"You guys do know that you are trespassing on an earth Starfleet ship... i will have to confine you to the brig."
"Sorry," Xander said, "But we can't go back to earth... you know why too."
"Yeah, Maddie's Cortical Implant..."
"Those fools do not appreciate me just because of the fact that i was assimilated..."
"Tell me about it," Sugimori said, "I had to convince Starfleet that i wouldn't bite their heads off."
"Maybe we should allow them to stay aboard as Crew... I think Ensign Harborough has an eye patch we can use to hide Maddie's Cortical implant."
"Thank you," Maddie said, her Borg nature breaking down for a second as she seemed to smile.

"Captain," Alliseya Varinov, chief engineer, said, "they attacked me and the other engineers."
"And?" Sugimori said, "If you felt threatened, wouldn't you protect yourself?"
"Yes, but that's beside the point."
"No," K'ey'ra said, "The captain is totally aware of the situation, and he has talked to Admiral Forrest... They will be brought on as crew... Rocca will be stationed on the bridge at Science. Bly will be our new Communications officer... we have been needing those positions filled for some time now."
"Is that understood?" Sugimori said, sounding as commanding as he could with the humor in his voice.
"AYE SIR!"
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXxXXXXXX
"Captain's log, Supplemental, We are about to test out our new Reaction Engine. If this works, we will be able to change courses on a whim."
"Helm," Sugimori said, "Prepare to activate the Reaction Engine... program it to go to warp one, and hone in on the last known Coordinates of the Enterprise... they are supposed to meet us there."
"Ready sir," The helmsman said, "On your mark."
"Engage."
With a flash of light, the Columbia roared to warp. However, there was no time to celebrate.
"Captain," Maddie said, "The... the reaction engine has fused to the main engine... Sir... We are Exceeding MAX--"
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
"Is everyone alright?" Sugimori said, picking himself off of the floor, "Report!"
"Ensign Hamilton is dead," K'ey'ra said, "Warp Drive is shot... We lost 6 others... including Varinov."
"Where are we?"
"Captain," Xander said, an unknown fear present in his voice, "I don't know."
"CAPTAIN!" Maddie said, hysterical, "THE BORG!"
To Be Continued.

Heheheh... Tune into the next chapter, when the Operation Overdrive Rangers send their new Zords into battle...
This is an OO fic, but it is also really heavily trek. However, i am placing this story in the PR section for continuity... All other CoU fics are ranger ones... and so is this one, mostly.
