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.
Adam's Borg hive headquarters. Valentine Manor basement. Sunnydale CA
Tony was still upset by the noticeable absence of drones when she entered the room where they were detaining Data. Adam or the Queen were up to something. She shrugged it off, and neared the lab bed where Data was tied.
- Hello, Data. How are you? -
- Hello, admiral. Have you come to rescue me? -
- Of course. - and snapped her fingers. The straps fell to the ground and Data jumped off the bed.
- Hmmm... I didn't know that you were so... well endowed. - said Tony while Data caught his uniform, that was lying not too far from the bed.
Valentine Manor lawn
- Sir, I'm detecting a faint anaphasic energy signal coming this way - said one of the security officers
- Could it be that captain Castro had also managed to escape from that dream state? - asked Korov
- Or, could it be that Antonia is coming for revenge. -
Korov made a signal and the security officers readied their weapons to fire at whatever might exit from there.
To their relief, Angel appeared, carrying a unconscious body. When he left the body on the ground, they thought at first that was Tony, until they noticed the Terran Empire symbol in the buckle of the belt.
- What has happened, mr. Angel? - asked Korov.
- Just Angel, please. - said Angel - Adam has done something with himself that had made him become very powerful. He knocked out Antonia in less than few minutes. -
- And the other Borgs? - asked Korov
- Gone, at least I didn't found anyone in the corridors. -
- That's odd. When I fled, they were everywhere. -
Adam's Borg hive headquarters. Valentine Manor basement. Sunnydale CA
- Are you dressed? - asked Tony while she was checking the walls.
- Yes, admiral. Although my commbadge and my tricorder have disappeared. - said Data. - I believe that they must be short of advanced technology. Even with nanotechnological reconstruction, electronic computers are not up to borg standards. -
- Well, that explains why my commbadge is also missing. - said Tony, still checking the walls. - Ah, here is. -
She activated her lightsaber, wondering why they hadn't also taken the jedi weapon, and cut a circular hole that gave them access to one of the corridors.
- Admiral, how are we going to find the way out? -
- I'll use my Force powers, Data. -
- Understood. -
Valentine Manor lawn
- Zeta protocols? What's that? - asked Buffy.
- Protocols designed to deal with specific hostile god-like entities. I didn't know that there was one for admiral Castro. - said Korov - I need authorization from captain Picard, and anyway all the equipment is in the Enterprise. - he pressed his commbadge. - Korov to Enterprise. -
- Enterprise, here. A moment, please. - said a voice.
- What's happening, Mr. Korov? - asked the voice of captain Picard.
After being briefed by Korov, Picard said:
- Dr. Crusher and Counselor Troi will be there shortly with the equipment. -
Ruins of Sunnydale High School
- This is beginning to look bad. The portal is starting to emit nadion particles. - said Geordi
- How do you know that? - asked Willow. - I haven't seen you take any reading. -
- These... - said pointing to his ocular implants - ... are also sophisticated sensors, miss Rosenberg. -
- Ok, and the emission of nadion particles means... -
- There are few natural processes that produce nadion particles, and none of them are good. -
- Not good for Sunnydale, then? -
- No, miss Rosenberg, not good for Earth. -
Engrossed in their talking they didn't see that the two security people with them were getting their weapons ready, seeing the forms that were creeping in the shadows.
Valentine Manor lawn.
- Let me see - said Dr. Crusher, after descending from the shuttle. She and Counselor Troi were carrying several odd looking devices.
The readings of her medical tricorder told her all that she needed to know.
- Her brain is recovering very fast. I judge that we have a few minutes... -
- Wait a moment, Beverly .- said Tony from the entry to the mansion. - I need some answers, and there is only one place where I can find them, in Antonia's head. -
- I can save the psionic scrambler for later, but I think that she should be immobilized .-
- All right. -
After Beverly injected the neural inhibition chips in several places she left Tony space to do whatever she was going to do.
Tony neared the body of her counterpart and touched her face. They shuddered and become perfectly still.
"At last, the final confrontation" thought Outcast from a window in the attic of the mansion.
Enterprise-E bridge
- Captain, we are surrounded by the borgs! We can't resist much mo... - the sound of Geordi voice died in an explosion of static.
