Isn't life funny chapter 2
In this story, the Enterprise D is still running and Captain Picard has become an admiral, leaving Riker in charge of the ship, also La Forge has left Enterprise.
It had been a normal morning on the bridge on Enterprise D. They had been travelling at warp 5 for several hours to check out a temporal distortion that had been picked up on the sensors.
William looked over to his first officer, Commander Data; "Data are you sure it was a temporal distortion that we detected?"
Data looked up from the panel he had been looking at "I am very sure sir and I am sure some thing had flown through it" Data commented at the information that was coming up at the screen.
"What flew through is the question" William commented, with a worried expression on his face.
"From the information available to us at this time, I can only say it was definitely a ship but I cant tell you about origins" Commander Ellie Shokai, the new chief engineer, said, looking at the two men. "The object has a warp engine I can tell you that because I am picking up its warp trail," she said with a concerned look in her eye that Data picked up on instantly. Riker had left them to sit back in the Captain's chair.
"Why the worried look Ellie?" Data said to her.
"I am just worried what we will find," Ellie said looking back that her friend. Data had always been the one from the start that she knew she could count on. At least her head wasn't filled with his thoughts like she was with the rest of the crew because she was Betazoid.
"As am I" Data replied to her.
"Captain we are reaching the co-ordinates of the temporal distortion" The helmsman said.
"Onscreen" Riker said and instantly a picture of a starship appeared on screen.
Data looked at the screen "Sir I believe that looks like a starfleet, very old style if I may add"
Riker looked up at the screen "I do agree with you, it isn't a style I recognise" Riker commented.
Ellie had been standing at the engineering station, bringing up data on the ship that had just passed through the distortion. "Sir we have a serious problem" Ellie said, the tone of her voice alerted Riker and Data that there was something seriously wrong and they rushed up to the engineering station.
"Sir this ship over there is Enterprise NX class meaning that it has come back from 2151 at the very least. We are much more advance than them and if they have sensors which I am pretty sure that ship does, they would have discovered that we also have a ship called Enterprise. We are going to have some seriously confused people over there" Ellie commented. She looked up to see some seriously worried faces of those of her commanders.
"Well we have to contact them as they are probably panicking now" Riker commented.
"Yes but how are we going to tell them that we from the 24th century, I don't think that is going to sit very with them" Ellie said.
"Well we have to start first contact procedures and we can wipe their short term memory later" Data said, trying to find a solution to the problem.
"Yes I agree with Data, there are probably very frightened people over there, we have to hail them" Riker concluded. The three of them walked down to the lower section of the bridge "open hailing frequencies" Riker said to his Comm officer. "Open sir" was the reply.
