October Challenge: The Hoary Cliche

Re: October Challenge: The Hoary Cliche; By any Other Name

I've got a 2 week break atm, so I may knock something up (not like that).
 
Well, I finally broke through with my own story. I started the day with maybe six pages. Now, at the end of the day, I have twenty-one. I should have no trouble completing it by the deadline. :)

I even added a new cliche to the mix. ;)
 
Here is my work-in-progress submission that I'll be working on straight through to the 31st of October.

"Star Trek: Mandela"
"Postcards From The Edge"
The Cardassians have recruited a bluegill spawnmother. (The bluegills were previously seen in TNG's "Conspiracy" episode.)

A 200 year old cryogenically preserved bluegill spawnmother is discovered in a decrepit Cardassian version of "Area 51", & revived in order to use her children to retain slaves, aimed toward rebuilding Cardassia Prime.

An inconvenient medical vessel & its crew, the Legacy-Class U.S.S. Mandela, - assigned to assist Cardassians attempting to get back on their feet - inadvertantly finds itself caught in the middle of the fray instead.
