Science Club Space I: Wormhole Greeting

Science Club Space I: Wormhole Greeting

Summary: Star Trek and Strange Days at Blake Holsey High Crossover. Lucas discovers the Enterprise and the Science Club gets a new ship, courteously of the Wormhole. What will happen in the darkness of space?

Pairings: JxL, maybe CxM, a dash of JxV

Disclaimer: I do not own Strange Days at Blake Holsey High or Star Trek: The Next Generation. The Plot was inspired by Time's Arrow: Part I. I do not own phased or thud torpedoes. Those belong to the developers of Star Trek: Bridge Commander and the modders of that game. Of course cannon weapons are the property of Paramount.

A/N: Main Crossover: Enjoy!

The Enterprise came out of the vortex above Earth.

"Report" Picard ordered.

"Warp and Impulse engines normal Captain. The Core checks out." LaForge said over the comm.

"Long-range sensors are down Captain. Our operational sensors cannot reach the surface." Data reported.

"Shields are down, weapon systems within normal parameters, however autolock is disabled." Worf said.

"All other systems check out Captain." Riker reported.

'Very well, work on the shields, autolock and sensors." Picard said. "Data, when are we?

"From atmospheric readings, I would approximate we have arrived less than a quarter century after the Eugenic Wars, lead by Kahn Noonian Sooghn." Data replied.

"I want to know the exact date, Data"

"The date is April 7, 2003, sir." Data reported.

"2003?"

"Yes, sir" Data replied.

"Warp hasn't even been achieved yet!" Counselor Troi exclaimed. "Captain, I recommend caution, this is a pre-warp earth, and therefore should be treated the same as dealing with any other pre-warp civilization."

"Agreed Counselor" Picard said.

"Captain, I'm picking up a signal directed out at space from the planet's surface. It is Morse code, sir."

"Can you pinpoint the source?" Picard asked.

"Yes, it is coming from an area of the North American continent. Determining what is down there is impossible because external...wait, Captain, I have tapped into what appears to be a...telephone conversation near the source."

"A telephone was a communication device of this era, Data. On audio"

"Aye sir"

"...just keep the students from the basement. I don't want any members of the science club stumbling on the Pearadyne ruins. And they won't if you do your job, unless Vaughn spills my plans." Victor was saying.

"Yes, of course, right away, Mr. Pearson." Durst said and hung up.

"The transmission has ended, sir."

"Data...what does the Morse message say?"

"It says, 'Greetings. To any receiving this transmission from Earth, I bid you a good day. I wish to make contact. My name is Lucas Randall. Please reply to this message by sending a message in the same code to the same spot on Earth it was received from. Once again, greetings from Earth and good day.' That is the end of the message." Data said.

"Suggestions?" Picard asked

"Captain, we should probably reply to this message. I sense no harm from the person who sent it, other than general curiosity for whatever is in space." Troi said.

"Very well, Deanna." Picard replied. "Number One, make it so, and see if you can beam him up, so I can speak with him, and see if what Deanna senses is true. Try formulating a reply in my name. Oh, and you have the bridge." With that, Picard went into his ready room.

"Data, formulate a reply to the message and transmit. Make sure it says not to tell anyone and that we will transmit a message at 1845 hours with further information." Riker said.

"Aye, sir"

Lucas entered the Science Office at 3 PM to check on his device. Josie had just told him that she was leaving in an hour to spend the rest of today and all of tomorrow with her mother, but that she would be back at 8 PM tomorrow, and for Lucas to meet her and her mother in his room. He had said he would have no trouble getting Marshall and Corrine out of the way, and Vaughn was at his father's house. To that end, Lucas set Marshall and Corrine up on a weekend date. They would stay with Marshall's parents for the weekend and they were leaving a little bit after Josie.

"Hey, Z, here's my paper, early" said Lucas dropping his paper on the desk before going over to the machine.

"Thanks Lucas" said Z, picking up the paper. "I have to go, staff meeting right now."

"Oh okay. I just want to take some readings from the gravity sensor."

"Okay Lucas, see you later, said Z exiting the office and closing the door behind him.

Lucas checked the gravity sensor, and found that there had been no new activity, which surprised him. Then he foolishly decided to check his transmitter. He wondered why he didn't tell anyone about this, but then realized even Josie would think he's off his rocker. He opened the cabinet and took it out...and was shocked to see the receive light on. With shaking hands he hit the receive button. A message printed out and he sat at Z's desk and read it:

Surface Communication: 1448 hours, April 7, 2003:

To the person on the surface who sent the message, I bid you welcome. I am Captain Jean-Luc Picard of the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-D. We are from the 24th century, commissioned by Starfleet, citizens of the United Federation of Planets based on Earth. Many different species are represented in the Federation and on the ship. Please wait for further instructions from a member of my crew at 1845 hours this evening. Do not tell anyone else about these transmissions.

END TRANSMISSION

Lucas was shocked...they sounded like humans from the future! He decided that he would come back at 1845 hours, must be equivalent to 6:45 PM, to receive a further communication. He happily skipped out of the office to say goodbye to Josie and then played games with Marshall until they left and supper, supper which he wolfed down, and he was back by 6:40. Nervously he waited.

Was it a hallucination? Lucas thought to himself. Well, I'm about to find out, it's 6:45 now...

A/N: Sorry about the short chapter and sorry about not updating in so long. I've been on a lot of vacations over the past month. Anyway, I considered this a filler chapter. The Eugenic Wars were the wars that Kahn orchestrated on Earth in the late 20th century, resulting in the whole exile that lead to Kahn and his companions being found by Captain Kirk.
