Authors Notes: well guys and girls, the crossover with DS9 is itching closer and closer.

On Deep Space Nine, Captain Benjamin Sisko is having his morning meeting with the Bajoran Liaison Colonel Kira Nerys. They are talking about the space station when the surrounding changes. He knew that he is with the prophets when one of the prophet Emanating The Colonel.

"The game has change."

"What game?"

"The game have new players."

Worf walks in the office and says "The Dominion is corporeal matters."

"Benjamin, forgive them for they speak in riddles."

A woman with red hair and wearing a Starfleet uniform appears before him. He did not recognize the woman since the prophets emanates the people he knows and speak in riddles.

"Who are you?"

"I am not your concern, I can only talk to you since there's a tear in the fabric of space and time has open and a threat that you can't imagine that came through it."

"I don't understand." Benjamin Sisko tries to get head around this new information.

"Olma is wise." The prophets said as they walk around Olma Desala. "Non Corporeal is our concern. New player in the game."

Olma have a annoyed look with the Prophets speaking riddles.

"His name is Ba'al, he is a great evil that took the leadership role of the enemy you currently fighting."

"Can't you handle it?"

"I am unable to interfere in corporeal matters, involving myself with human evolution will get others to stop me." Olma walks closer to the Captain and hand him a blue data crystal.

"What's this?" Sisko looks at the crystal and examines it. "But you are interfering now."

"That data crystal has all the information, once they arrive they will assist the Federation to rid this universe of the great evil."

"And who are they?"

"In time Captain Sisko."

Benjamin Sisko flash back to his reality, sitting next to Colonel Kira Nerys with a data crystal in his hand. Kira knew he spoke to the prophets or an ascended being when he had a stoic look on his face.

"You spoke to the prophets sir?"

"Not exactly."

"What's that?" Kira glance what the Captain Sisko is holding.

"Not exactly sure."

TAS Port Royale exit out of hyperspace to the coordinates of New Norfolk Naval Research base.

"Sir, we are at the coordinates."

"Are you sure you put in the right coordinates?" Sheppard ask the female Oannes navigation officer. He look out the window and sees nothing.

The Oannes female officer gills flusters. "Yes sir."

"Sir, we are being hailed."

"By who?"

"An Admiral Brogon Doyle sir."

"Put it on screen."

A holographic feed of a Serrakin/human male wearing a tan Tauri Alliance Naval officer dress uniform appears in front of the view screen.

"Port Royale, we've been expecting you." Admiral says as he looks at Shepard. "I transmitted a sequence of code to your Asgard AI."

It took a few seconds for the Asgard AI to decode the sequence of codes and transmitted back to another Asgard AI.

The ship and the entire crew shifted into another dimension, that surprises everyone when they saw the planet and the battleships thats protecting it.

"I think the crew needs a little R and R while the eggheads refit the ship." The Admiral said. "See me in my office when you beam to the surface."

"Yes sir." Sheppard salute his superior officer when the holographic display deactivated.

Several cylindrical shape ship approaches the Port Royale and shoots a beam of energy, it's not a weapon but a tractor beam. It's towing the ship to a dry dock in orbit of the planet. Once docked and the moorings attached to the ship, the crew got of their uniforms and into their civilian clothing.

For Colonel Sheppard, it's business as usual. He is still in his fatigues, watching the crew departing the ship and into the dry docking port. He taps his earpiece to signal that he is ready to beam out to see the Admiral, what's waiting for him will be a hell of a surprise.

As soon as Sheppard rematerialise in the research base, Admiral Doyle is standing with his hands behind his back and he is accompanied by a man wearing a lab coat and seems to be twiddling his fingers and looking up at the ceiling.

Sheppard glances at the ceiling, nothing interesting and shook it off and proceeds to approach the two men. He stops a few inches and salutes to a superior officer.

"At ease Colonel Sheppard."

"Sheppard?" McKay repeated.

"Yes, that's my name." Sheppard said. "Colonel Kanaan John Sheppard."

"Are you related to General John Sheppard." McKay ask.

The Admiral interrupts Rodney Mckay seeing that he gets distracted by simple things. He hands a paper thin tablet to Sheppard which he reads.

Captain Sisko is in the science lab, analysing the crystal but the crystal is incompatible with Federation technology.

Jadzia walks in and saw her commanding officer tapping some commands on the computer console.

"What you doing Ben? She ask as she approaches the console. She saw the crystal and thought it was a decorative piece he bought from Quarks. "What's that?"

"You might think I'm going crazy when I tell you how got this."

Jadzia thought for a moment and said. "Ben your crazy."

Captain Sisko laughs. "It's incompatible with our technology, tried scanning it but got nothing."

"What is it?"

"It's a data crystal."

Jadzia took the crystal to analyze it with her eyes when all of sudden a bright light appear, shielding her eyes with her palm. When the illumination faded, she saw a woman standing in front of them. She is wearing a Starfleet officer uniform and a smile on her face.

"Hello Ben, Jadzia."

"Sir, should I call security?"

"No."
