Star Trek: Sunset Shimmer

by shinkansenpony

In 2398, the USS Sunset Shimmer, a huge Faustian-class Federation ship, is sent to stop the Aridaginatans, desecendants of three sirens, from taking over Deep Space 9. But the Aridaginatans time travel 384 years into the past, and so does the Sunset Shimmer. The Aridaginatans' plan? Erase the UFP's largest ship from existence by eliminating the person the ship is named after.

2. Battle Of Deep Space Nine

Deep Space 9 Alpha Quadrant

"Come to Quark's, Quark's is fun, come right now, don't walk...RUN!"

This jingle is very familiar with residents, Starfleet officers, and tourists on DS9, when sometimes they want to have fun at this bar. But now, they aren't having fun. Because they are panicking. Quark, a Ferengi who runs the bar, is most annoyed that customers aren't having fun.

"Oh great. Now the Aridaginatans are invading. Maybe some warp core breaches can cheer them..."

Before Quark can finish his sentence, a safe comically falls on him as a result of another blast from the Aridaginatans.

"...up," Quark finished before passing out.

"Quark's is fun. Hope you enjoy. Come back soon. Have some fun!"

In the midst of the battle, was the USS Starlight Glimmer (NCC-4415), a Galaxy X-class dreadnought starship. Its captain, which turns out to be Q himself, watches as the other ships get destroyed by a huge ship, which resembled an extremely scary seahorse with a pendant on its chest.

"Well, I promised Picard that all good things must come to an end. But this is what I got instead," he chuckled to himself.

"Captain, we have an incoming ship!" shouted one of the Starlight Glimmer's helmsmen. "It's the...

"Yes, I know already," interrupted Q. "No need to make First Contact sound so redundant."

Then, the Sunset Shimmer dropped out of warp near the Aridaginatan ship. The enemy tried firing on the large Federation ship, but the Sunset Shimmer's shields held up pretty well.

"Do not worry," said Captain Shoichet over the radio. "I know the Aridaginatans' weakness. I'm assuming command of the fleet. Fire on my command."

Then Captain Shoichet turned to Bootsplash.

"Ms. Bootsplash, what is the status of the Aridaginatan ship?" she asked.

"The Aridaginatans sustained heavy damage. The enemy ship's reactor is almost exposed," Bootsplash explained.

"Then, the reactor it is," beamed Captain Shoichet. She quickly sets the coordinates of the reactor.

"Squawk! The fleet is ready to fire on your command!" sqwauked Inat'p.

"Lock your phasers arrays on these coordinates," ordered Shoichet to the fleet. "FIRE!"

Another Starfleet officer came rushing onto the bridge with a fire extinguisher.

"Captain, is there a fire around here?!" barked the officer.

"No, there isn't! And I don't mean that kind of fire!" Shoichet shouted back.

Soon, all the ships begin firing on the Aridaginatan dreadnought's core. Then, the Sunset Shimmer shoots her geode-enhanced photon torpedoes into the chest of the ship, striking a final blow. This causes the enemy ship to explode.

KABOOOOOOOM!

All of the Federation starships start to retreat just as the remains of the enemy ship scattered around.

Everyone on both Deep Space 9 and the Sunset Shimmer cheered.

"WOOOHOOO!" exclaimed Inat'p in celebration. "I know we can do it! Maybe we can go to Quark's to celebrate!"

"Indeed!" cheered Shoichet. She and the crew gave each other high fives.

Back at Quark's, Quark stands up, rubbing his head.

"Well, now, the customers are having fun," smiled the Ferengi. "Now, I should go make some stardrifters."

But before he can, a panicking Parallax wind dancer comically rams into Quark, sending him flying into the kitchen. Cats and shattered plates can be heard screeching and crashing.

"I'm okay!" shouted Quark.
