ESCAPE
Previously on 24
Jack Bauer, believed to be mortally wounded by a gunshot to the back of his head, was put inside a stasis canister in the early twenty-first century. So was the body of a ruthless killer, Thomas Devron, who had brutally killed Jack’s daughter and her child. Devron had been part of a cabal to replace all the world’s rulers with clones. Killing Bauer’s daughter was an act of attrition.
Awakened three hundred years in the future, Thomas Devron would soon continue his murdering ways.
Upon finding historic data about Jack Bauer, Admiral Picard ordered that Jack Bauer be brought back from the “dead” as well to stop Devron. To that end, Admiral Picard assigned a Starfleet officer to act as Bauer’s guide in the twenty-fourth century. The officer is named Lieutenant Mnu Subrelqui, or as he demands to be called, Stan.
Former Starship Captain, and legend, Benjamin Maxwell, has come to see that Starfleet is not a force of good, but actually an agency that far too powerful. The only way for Starfleet to pay for its sins is for it to be brought down, even if it means destroying the Federation in the process.
Jack Bauer, now teamed with the alien who was sent back into the past to facilitate Jack’s fake death, is in a race against time to try and stop Maxwell from using antiquated nuclear technology to destroy the Federation.
We now continue
Jack Bauer was surrounded by men holding various types of weapons. They were part of the team that had been working for former Starfleet Captain Ben Maxwell, and his attempt to seize centuries old Nuclear Warheads. The cabal believed that Starfleet was too powerful, and needed to be taken down to bring true peace to the galaxy.
“I should kill you now,” the squadron leader, Lt. Bandis, said to Jack.
Suddenly, one of Bandis’s men came over to him.
“Sir,” the younger officer, a young human named Corporal Mills, “according to our data, one of the warheads has been activated.”
“What?” Both Jack and Bandis asked.
“It was activated by Thomas Devron,” Mills added. “Plus, Captain Maxwell is dead.”
“Are you certain?” Bandis asked. “I just saw him moments ago.”
“He was killed by the Aquatic being.” Mills said.
“Maxwell was using its family as leverage,” Bandis said, “can’t say that I wouldn’t have done the same thing, having been given a chance.”
Mills showed Bandis a Tricorder, and then Bandis motioned for Jack to look at it as well.
“Can you stop this thing?” Bandis asked.
“I’m not sure,” Jack said. “We have barely 12 minutes before it goes off. I think you better evacuate your men while I try.”
“Listen,” Bandis said to Jack. “We’re here to secure those weapons. I am not a fool; you’re the kind of man who would rather kill all of us rather than let us get those things off this planet.”
Suddenly, shimmering into existence was a transporter pattern. It solidified; it was Picard.
“It’s about time!” Jack said to Picard.
“Wrong Picard,” Picard said. “Lt. Bandis, what is your status? I have brought two starships loyal to our cause. Can we bring the warheads wp?”
“Maxwell is dead,” Bandis reported. “We have the warheads lined up, but,” Bandis said motioning to Bauer, “this man and Devron have delayed our progress. And now, one of the warheads is counting down.”
“Very well,” Picard said. “We’ll just have to retreat to the back-up plan. Get your men off this planet before that thing goes off.”
“Who are you?” Bauer asked.
“I’m now the leader of this movement to expose the treachery of Starfleet. First it was Chakotay, then Maxwell, now it my turn. As long as people think I’m Jean-Luc Picard, everything will happen as planned.” Picard said.

Thomas Devron had made his way outside into the bitter cold. Snow was falling quite hard, but he was able to make his way to the transport ship he had piloted to get himself to Trident Gamma Seven. He was about to board it when suddenly, from out of nowhere, Stan tackled him.
The two men fell to the ground.
“You activated that weapon,” Stan said, “and you think you can just waltz out of here. No way huuuman! You are going to die like the rest of us!”
Stan punched Devron. But Devron was a trained fighter and was able to roll back to his feet.
“I am amazed,” Devron said, “with how many different aliens there are here in the future. But your race,” Devron said, “is about the most disgusting looking I have seen.”
Devron was able to land to roundhouse kicks to Stan, throwing the aquatic being back, smashing into the pavement, which was headed, and didn’t allow snow to build up on it.
Stan was able to get back to his feet, but Devron had already picked up a large chunk of the pavement, no doubt worn out over time. It was the size of a large boulder, with jagged edges, and Devron held it like a weapon. Before Stan got his bearings, Devron smashed the boulder on Stan’s head, crashing him back down to the ground. As quick as lightning, Devron straddled Stan, and held the jagged edges of the rock to his neck.

Picard spoke to Bandis.
“We’ll have to get out of here,” Picard told Bandis. “Prepare your men for beam-up; we have less than ten-minutes to get out of here.” Picard ordered.
Bandis and his men began to pack up their gear.
“What about me?” Bauer asked Picard.
Picard looked around, and then spoke softly to Bauer.
“It’s me Jack,” Picard said. “I am not the imposter, it is really me. Thanks to the efforts of my wife, and a friend of ours, they were able to infiltrate Maxwell’s efforts, and free me. We’re trying to stop what is going on. I am going to leave you here to die, when the bomb goes off. But really, I need you to get off this planet once we do, and continue your investigation. It isn’t over yet. We know there is some kind of back-up..”
Suddenly Bandis came over.
“My men and I are ready to go, sir,” Bandis said.
“Very well,” Picard said.
Suddenly, and without warning, Picard took out a phaser and blasted Bauer in the chest with it, throwing him to the ground.
“Let him die, among these antiquated weapons.” Picard said. “It seems appropriate.”
Bandis smiled.
Moments later, Picard, Bandis, and the rest of the team were beamed away. Once they were gone, Jack sprang into action. The phaser blast that Picard had fired at him was only a mild shock. Jack knew he had, at best, five minutes to get off the planet before the bomb went off. But first he had to find Stan. Jack ran over to the Panaran, which was still standing in the center of the warehouse. Obviously the creature was slow, meaning, didn’t realize what was going on.
“You have to get out of here,” Jack said. “The way you were able to move you limbs, and fold them earlier, can you do that again?”
Yes, Human. I can fold, as Chakotay explained.
“Good,” Jack said, “my ship is out there. We need to get out of here as fast…”
Suddenly Jack’s words were cut short by a stream of energy that streaked across the warehouse and struck the Panaran, exploding the creature.
