Excerpt from: Changes in Time and Space
“Kellira is changing the plan!” Sabir said. It was not entirely unexpected, but Sabir still was annoyed at the fact.

“That she is,” the Doctor said.

“Maybe she isn’t changing all of it. we can still review the rest,” Felicia said.

“That is true. But we need to be ready for the arrival for the fleet,” Captain Anderson said. To Sabir, she seemed rather anxious.

‘Of course, so would I if I were in her place,’ he thought.

“I know that,” Felicia said. Captain Anderson walked over to Geraldton, ready to give him the next order.

“Contact the Defender and the Hornblower. Tell them to prepare the plasma cannons, we may need them,” she ordered.

“Yes, Captain,” Geraldton said. He relayed the Captain’s orders to those two ships.


The Doctor looked at the sensor display. It appeared that the new Drahvin fleet was getting ready to land near Ponta Delaga. Maybe the UNIT ships could attempt to block it from landing? Of course the Drahvins would probably just attempt to land elsewhere, but it had to irk Kellira and it would also disrupt her new plan. The Captain was coming back. She shared her plan with her.

“It is worth a shot, but it is incredibly risky,” she said.

“We have to do something about the fleet,” Felicia said.

“Absolutely, Elisa,” the Doctor said.

“It is a good idea, but it not a good idea to use the whole fleet. We can use two thirds for your strategy, and the rest as a reserve,” the Captain said.

“Good idea,” the Doctor said. She then listened to the rest of the Captain’s plan, hoping that it would succeed.


“The fleet is approaching, Mistress,” Drahvin Soldier 4W32.iii said.

“Excellent,” Kellira said. She was sure that they would be successful in establishing their base in the Azores before the day was out.

The UNIT fleet moved in towards the city of Ponta Delaga.

Excerpt from: A Fellowship of 10
“Bilbo must have translated it. I didn’t know that.”

“There was a lot more,” Sam explained. “All about Mordor. I didn’t learn that part, it gave me the shivers. I never thought I should be going that way myself.”

“Going to Mordor!” Pippin cried. “I hope it won’t come to that!”

“Don’t speak that name so loudly,” Strider said.


Just hearing that name gave Hanna shivers. She hoped that they wouldn’t have to go there.

Excerpt from: An Aquatic Second Contact
Ma’ah took that as a prompt. “I was sent by my government to ensure that rogue elements would not attempt to annex your world.”

“I see,” Rasle responded. “You have proof of this?”

“Of course,” Ma’ah said. He placed PADD on the table and played the message Chancellor Martok had sent him.


Captain Freeman took in the message. Hearing it from Martok was different from hearing it from Ma’ah.


USS Cerritos
“Probes are ready, sir,” Barnes reported.

“Then launch. Place them at intervals between the planet and the approach vectors into the system from the direction of Klingon Space,” Shax ordered.

“Aye, sir,” Barnes said.


It was boring, Mariner considered, but it would be worth it. Knowing the ecologies of the various settlements would help her know where the needs were. “So, these towns specialise in their equivalent of vegetables?” she asked.

“That’s right,” Tendi answered.

“Cool,” she commented.

“Captain Freeman to Ensign Mariner, please report to the meeting room on the station.”

Mariner tapped her commbadge. “On my way, Captain!”


T’Lyn watched Mariner leave. “She didn’t waste time.”

“So?” Tendi asked.

Excerpt from: The Youngest Barksdale
“That’s good, but how did Ms. Li react?”

“She was slowly losing her cool,” Andrea answered.

“That’s not surprising,” Scarlett commented.

“I’ll ask my sister about the Modelling thing,” Daria decided. “She’ll be more forthcoming than Quinn.
