"Sir wake up! Wake up sir!!" I was shaken awake. I saw Commander Barclay standing over me. "What is it?" I said in a weary, groggy voice. "Sir, there are new ships!" I stood up and supported my self against the wall since I was still sleepy. "Of course there are going to be new ships, it is a base." I thought to my self that Commander Barclay may have been a bit over hyper. I heard that he could be that way at times by Councilor Dianna Troi. "But sir, these are Cardasian!!" Damn, what the heck it going on?! What does this all mean!! Grrrr. I need some coffee!! I thought to my self. "Ok, lets check it out. But first I am getting some coffee." Barclay and I walked out of the bunk bed compartment and to the replicator in the entertainment compartment. "Computer, I'll have some coffee. No milk. No sugar." I said in still a groggy voice. A moment's pause and then a glass mug full of some regular coffee appeared on the small replicator pad built into the wall. I took the mug and walked into the bridge compartment with Barclay, climbed down the small three step latter, and sat my self down into the Helm's chair. I sipped on my coffee, set it down on a flat part of the controls (the computer only reacts to finger touch, so I thought it wouldn't hurt). I am still half asleep. MMmmm. what have we here. I touched the view screen controls to zoom in on the new screens. A moment went by and then the view screen zoomed in on the new Cardasian ships so close that I could see every window. Hum.Keldon class war ships. "Barclay, scan those ships for anything unusual." I said to Commander Barclay who was sitting in the tactical chair above me. "Aye sir." He worked his controls. Another minuet and the results were beeping back. "Nothing unusual here. No unusual energy patterns, warp trails, nothing." I thought a minute. I wasn't at all expecting to find anything. I just wanted to do something since there is nothing else to do. "How about quantum signature?" Another minuet went by. "Sir, what is our quantum signature supposed to be?" I leaned back, "Uh. 4.78 I believe. Why?" I looked forward again as Barclay adjusted his controls. "Sir, I've adjusted my controls, and rechecked them, but their quantum signature is. is. 3.67!" I was sipping on my coffee when he said that. I accidentally spit out my coffee. "What!!! That can't be!!!!!! You mean they are from the Mirror Universe!!!???" Barclay checked his controls just to be sure. "Yes! I don't believe this!!!" I looked back seeing the coffee all over the self. "Computer, initiate auto-cleanup." The coffee began to disappear. "Barclay, were is Data? I believe he is still 'sleeping.'" I got up, climbed up the latter, and into the bunk compartment. I opened Data's bunk curtain. "Data?" His eyes flickered open immediately. "Yes sir? Data, those Borg and the other ships are from the Mirror Universe!!" He stood up. "May I see." I indicated to the door. He went through, and once on the bridge, he took a look at Commander Barclay's sensor reading. "I see. Interesting. You say this is the Mirror Universe that was founded by the legendary Captain Kirk?" I nodded. He adjusted the controls a bit to make sure they were right. "Hum. very interesting. These quantum signatures are not that of what Captain Kirk discovered. In fact, the two signatures are way off. This signature is 3.67. The universe that Captain Kirk found was the quantum signature of 2.89. I believe you have found another parallel universe. I would suggest departing and a course for Star Base One."
