This is probably going to be the entire cast. For one thing, it's already more characters than I can safely handle. For another, I haven't been watching "Enterprise," and for a third, I feel that the poor old original series has already been spoofed within an inch of its life. Hell, they've even spoofed it in the canon.

WARNING!

I'm no longer entirely making this up as I go along. Somewhere along the line, a plot formed. I also may be giving in to my urge to write in prose in the very near future.

And now, on with the story. Such as it is.

Personal Log, Jadzia Dax

We're heading north, toward the life signs I picked up. I'm reading eleven people. Most are human, but two seem to also be partly something else, and one is giving off what look almost like Borg signals.

Ben is fuming. He's sure Q is behind this. I'm not so sure. I don't think he could resist staying unknown this long.

Why do Garak and Julian keep looking at each other like that? I wish Nerys were here to discuss it. I like to have a good idea of what's going on before I pry into other people's business. We scientists are curious, but prepared.

Captain's Log, Jean-Luc Picard

Counselor Troi senses that six more people have arrived and will be joining us soon. She sense two humans, a joined Trill, a Ferengi, a Cardassian, and what is even stranger, Lieutenant Worf. She says none of the others are familiar. Why is Worf with them? Has he come from another point in time?

Deanna does not think the newcomers know any more than we do, but hopefully, their new perspectives will shed some light on the situation.

Personal Log, Commander Chakotay

I used my shirt to make a still that provides enough water for all of us, and found a handy piece of flint that I used to kill and field-dress enough game to feed everyone. Go me! Too bad I'm vegetarian. And a half-naked vegetarian, at that. Well, no one else seems to mind, and it's fairly warm here. The nights are cooler, but there are always plenty of volunteers to help me stay warm at night. Again, go, me!
