Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel and all related characters were created and are owned by Joss Whedon. Star Trek, and Star Trek: The Next Generation created by Gene Roddenberry.

Spoilers: Buffy to season 4, Angel to season 1, although due to the nature of the story there is some spoilers to later seasons. Star Trek to Star Trek: First Contact, and to Deep Space Nine season 5.
Author Note: I have borrowed some concepts from the two Star Trek / Buffy crossovers by Scott Eiland, and from the story "Time Slayer", another Star Trek / Buffy crossover that I found in the net a few years ago.
I wish to thank to Carycomix, my beta reader for his help.
Summary: a month after the events of Star Trek: First Contact, remnants of Borg technology aboard the Enterprise launch the ship to the moment when Buffy destroyed Adam.
"Magic Box" shop. Sunnydale CA
- Buffy, I can't wake him! We need to carry him to a doctor! - said Willow
- Can I bring our doctor? -
- If he can come here before Xander and Anya... -
As her only response Tony took her combadge from the pocket where she had been guarding it.
- Tony, the Prime Dir...! -
- Look, Deanna, this people have seen things at least as strange as we have, and they have kept their mouths shut. - answered Tony while pressing the combadge - Castro to Enterprise. We are going to need Beverly down here. -
- What has happened, Tony? - asked Jean-Luc Picard through the commbadge.
- Something that I was fearing that could happen in this city. We have become embroiled in a local matter. -
- Tony, the Pri...-
- Yes, I know. But this city is weird, even by Starfleet standards. I knew that before we beamed here, but I hoped that we could avoid problems. - she paused - Are you going to trust me in this matter or not? -
After a long pause, Picard answered.
- Very well, but we have to talk about this. -
- After this I think that all the senior officers are going to need a briefing on what is happening here. - said Tony looking at Buffy.
A crypt in the Sunnydale Cemetery. Sunnydale CA
Spike was intrigued, he had seen from the gate of the crypt the battle that had taken place some minutes ago, and had heard the conversation between the Slayer and the group which supposedly came from the future. He got out of the crypt and began to walk toward the "Magic Box".
Angel Investigations. Los Angeles CA
- I'm going to Sunnydale. Buffy will need help with this matter. - said Angel
Valentine Manor. Outskirts of Sunnydale CA.
Christopher "Red" Fielding, agent of the SDPD, parked his patrol car in the abandoned garden before the ruinous mansion. Somebody had called to the Police Station saying that he had seen a car, whose description matched a car stolen yesterday, parked in the backyard of the mansion.
He went around the mansion and saw that the car was there, and somebody was inside. He approached the car silently, checking if there was another person in the backyard. There was nobody, and the person inside the car seemed to be too busy to notice that there was somebody behind him.
When he was a few meters from him and ready to order him to stop, the man got out of the car with puppet-like movements. Then Fielding recognized him. He was one of the usual suspects of the Sunnydale Police, but he was very changed. His skin had a sickening emaciated tone and a small spider-like mechanism protruded from his skin. Remembering some of the stories that he had heard from the veterans, he shot. But he continued as if nothing had happened. Fielding shot again, but to no avail. The police officer tried to flee, but then he found behind him a monster that immobilized him. Then he felt two sharp objects intruding on his neck and before losing consciousness, he thought about the crazy stories about vampires and other monsters that he had heard and how he had found that were true. Although he never knew, he was wrong.
Adam felt the new mind that was being assimilated into the Collective. This new drone would be perfect for his plan.
"Magic Box" shop. Sunnydale CA
After a small explanation of what a transporter was, Tony said to the Enterprise that they could proceed. Beverly Crusher in medical coat, Starfleet uniform and with a portable medkit, appeared in the usual transporter effect.
- I hope that you know what you are doing - said Beverly to Tony, and continued, pointing to Giles. - I suppose that he is the patient -
- Yes. - answered Tony
Beverly produced a medical tricorder from the medkit and examined Giles.
- Some neural damage... can be serious. Some unusual brain activity in the temporal lobe... exactly of the same type, although much weaker, than yours. - said Beverly looking at Tony.
- I'll explain all of this later. - said Tony, sighing.
- Well, some old scars and myopia. I can repair the neural damage, but not with the equipment that I have here. I need the equipment of sickbay to heal him. -
Before Buffy, Willow or Tara could raise some objection, they heard Xander and Anya entering the shop.
- Buffy? Who are these people? And what has happened to Giles? -
- It's a long story, Xander. - answered Buffy, and turned to Tony. - Wherever you carry Giles, we go with him. -
- Very well. Three people beam with us directly to sickbay, and the others beam to the nearest transporter room, and from there they can reach sickbay in a few minutes. -
- Is that beam thing... secure? - asked Willow, nervous.
- Yes, the Federation have used them for more than two centuries, and the bugs were eliminated long ago. - said Tony, while thinking. "'Bones' would dissent, of course." - The transporter can only get 6 people, so how we organize this? -
Finally they decided that they would be beamed in two different groups: Tony, Beverly, Giles, Buffy, Willow and Tara; Deanna, Data, one the security people, Anya and Xander.
- Excuse me, but the door of the shop is broken, what if somebody tries to steal here? - said Anya.
- That's why I'm going to leave Lebrun and Engonga here. - said Tony.
- Oh. -
- Castro to Enterprise - said Tony, after pressing the commbadge. Then proceeded to explain what she was proposing.
- Tony, that would be a severe violation of the Prime Directive. I'm beginning to question your judgement on this matter. -
- Jean-Luc, we have a predestination time loop here. My usual predestination time loop. -
- Again? -
- Yes, again. Look, I don't remember very well what is going to happen, but this I know: we are going to need Buffy and her associates if we are going to try to stop what that Borg device can be doing here. -
