The Enterprise-F is sent in to investigate…
The civilisation which discovered the Dyson Sphere the previous year set up a base in the Sphere in this year. The Borg discover the Sphere, though this is not known until later… There are hints of deadly secrets being hidden in the Sphere somewhere…
Anna Jones leaves the Federation. She hitches a ride in Tom Paris’s Alpha Flyer personal exploration ship, out to the edge of explored territory, in the opposite direction from both the Dyson Sphere, and a new enemy of the Federation. She then planet hops for a year. She makes discoveries that Starfleet won’t for another decade.
The Defiant makes does some exploration close to the wormhole. Anti-Federation Terrorist groups perpetrate attacks against Federation activities in Cardassian space. This makes most Bajorans sure that the Cardassians are definitely not ready to join the Federation.
2417
A Borg ship is sighted near the Dyson Sphere by both a Starfleet and a Klingon ship in 2 separate incidents. The Gorn discover the Sphere.
Anna Jones runs into trouble on a pre-industrial planet, where she had been exploring for a few months. She is then rescued by a Section 31 agent whom had been following her since she had left the Federation. The agent doesn’t reveal this to her though. She then discovers an interstellar nation a lot like the Federation was in the 23rd Century, based on a duplicate Earth.
She is picked up by an Enterprise (SCC 2701) led by a Kirk-like captain. She accompanies them on a few missions before heading onwards around the edge of the space known to this ‘Commonwealth of Planetary Nations’ or ‘Commonwealth’ (or ‘CPN’) (whose maps she had been given by the captain), then planet-hops as before, before coming to an Empire at the end of the year. The Section 31 agent decides to urge her to keep the Commonwealth secret when she gets back to the Federation.
The agent also barely escapes from the Commonwealth’s version of Section 31.
The New Dominion stirs up trouble in the Gamma Quadrant. Cardassia continues to be troubled.
Geordi La Forge barely escapes the loss of the Challenger.
2418
It is a peaceful year in the Dyson Sphere. Exploration of the Sphere’s surface continues. Some teams do get into trouble from time to time.
Anna Jones escapes from the Empire she was trapped in at the end of the previous year, into Commonwealth space. She decides to visit some of the Commonwealth’s worlds. She does so. She rescues the Section 31 agent from the Commonwealth’s ‘Section 41’ (The Commonwealth’s version of Section 31). Then a month later, the Enterprise SCC 2701 has to rescue both of them from Section 41. The captain is convinced that Section 41 sees the Federation as a threat to the Commonwealth, though he doesn’t know why.
They soon have to stop a conspiracy from taking over the Commonwealth. After this the Commonwealth Starfleet Command orders the Enterprise to take Anna and the agent back to the Federation, and to make contact with it. On the edge of Federation space they contact the USS Europa. Anna takes off in her ship. And the Section 31 agent has to take one of the Europa’s shuttles to follow her. Unbeknownst to them some of the Section 41 agents who had been shadowing the Enterprise follow them.
Anna runs off in the direction of the Galactic rim, away from both the Federation and the Commonwealth, planet hopping as she had been before she ran into the Commonwealth.
The Enterprise/Europa contact goes well. The Europa sends the information about the Commonwealth to Starfleet Command. They order the Europa to stay where it is, and to stall the Enterprise until they could make a decision…
It is mostly peaceful at Deep Space Nine, and on Bajor, though not necessarily so on Cardassia.
2419
The Borg attack some Federation ships near the Dyson Sphere. Gary Seven appears on the Sphere, warning the leader of the Federation expedition there, that a time of trial is approaching. More regions of the Sphere are explored, with more teams running into trouble.
As Anna runs from the Federation and the Commonwealth, she runs into some Borg ships fleeing from something. “Not more trouble, maybe I should have run in the opposite direction” she says upon seeing the Borg ships. However whatever is troubling the Borg doesn’t trouble Anna… This is a mostly uneventful year, apart from Gary Seven somehow appearing on her ship, and telling her to prepare for a time of trial. “But he won’t tell me what that trial is” she puts in her log.
She stays on a preindustrial planet late in the year, and hangs out with a barbarian tribe who are troubling a Romanesque empire. Unbeknownst to her the Section 41 agents who had been trailing her infiltrate the ranks of that Empire’s military.
Starfleet Command tells the Europa to keep the existence of the Commonwealth a secret, and to tell the Enterprise that the Federation will make secret contact with the Commonwealth. The captain of the Enterprise doesn’t like this but he agrees and goes back to the Commonwealth. The Commonwealth Council agrees with the Federation stance, and decides to make secret contact with the Federation as well. Knowledge of the other nation is on a need to know basis in both Starfleets.
At Deep Space Nine, the Cardassian bid to join the Federation is turned down. The New Dominion raids some Federation and Klingon colonies, but doesn’t declare war.
2420
Some civilisations in the Dyson Sphere attack the Federation and Klingon presence in the Sphere, the reason for this is not known at the end of the year. In the meantime, many discoveries are made about the Sphere, though not before many teams get in trouble…
Anna accompanies some of the barbarians on a raid on the empire. She is captured by one of the Section 41 agents. He tells her that she shouldn’t have found the Commonwealth, and that general knowledge of the Federation, and its Earth in particular could be very devastating to its society. He wants to take her back to the Commonwealth Earth where she would be held prisoner in a facility in its Aotearoa. (Not New Zealand? She asks herself). She is interrogated briefly before the Section 31 agent rescues her with the help of the empire’s version of Section 31.
After this the agent reveals to Anna the truth about his/her work and Section 31. Anna doesn’t like this one bit, and runs off, crashing her ship on another continent of the planet, leaving the agent to fight in the empire against the Section 41 agents. Anna realises she has to get back to the empire before she can get off the planet. She then spends half of the year getting back there, encountering many tribes and civilisations along the way.
When she gets back, she finds that the empire is not as it has been, with the fighting between the agents having devastated it, having exasperated the empire’s troubles. She then steals one of the Section 41 ships and leaves the planet, heading in the direction of the Klingon Empire. She doesn’t get there before December though, running into Gary Seven again. He sends her on a mission on Preserver/Human planet…
After this she finds that she was followed by the agents.
In the Gamma Quadrant, tensions between the Federation and its allies and the New Dominion increase… Cardassia has a lot more troubles as the ramifications of the refusal of Federation admittance continues to be felt.
2421
There is war in the Dyson Sphere as groups that do not like the UFP/Klingon/First Federation/etc presence in the Sphere, attack their presence in the Sphere, and the civilisations that had allied with them. In the midst of this the Borg attempt to assimilate the Sphere, though their attack is driven off with a lot of success. The war comes to an end towards the end of the year. More secrets are discovered about the Sphere.
Anna enters the Klingon Empire and visits many of their worlds, including Qo’nos. However the Commonwealth agents and the Section 31 agent follow her into Klingon space. A Klingon Imperial Intelligence agent approaches Anna and tells her about her predicament. It also appears that the Klingons know about the Commonwealth as well. Also it seems that the Federation Council wants her for breaking the Prime Directive.
“I am not a Starfleet officer, I was never in the Academy” she says.
“It seems that they want you anyway, you have disrupted cultures on many planets, your journey seems to have caused a lot of havoc, and the Federation Council wants to talk to you” the agent says.
“What about the High Council, what do they say?” she asks.
“The Chancellor knows you are in Klingon territory, as for the rest of the Council I don’t know, but he says that you may stay as long as you wish” He says.
Anna decides to stay in Klingon space for a while, and she does. She leaves Klingon space in the middle of the year in the opposite direction to the one she entered it, and then planet-hops on warp-capable planets towards the galactic rim. With the Section 31 agent, a Federation starship, the Section 41 agents, a Commonwealth starship (but not the Enterprise), the Klingon I.I. agent and a Klingon Defence Force ship following her.
Tensions between the Federation alliance and the New Dominion continue to increase. Cardassia stabilises.
The planet Ratalita, in the Gamma Quadrant, joins the Federation, at the end of the year. The ancient station orbiting it becomes a Starfleet station.
2422
Anna continues to run along the edge of the Galaxy, in the direction of the Gamma Quadrant, she is still pursued, by all who were pursuing her in the previous year. She visits many warp capable planets, and then pre-warp post-industrial planets when warp capable planets become few and far between. In the middle of the year, she lands on a pre-industrial planet and is resting in a village when Gary Seven meets her.
“You have to stop running Anna! You have left havoc behind you, and you would create more” he says.
“It is not just me! It is the agents following me as well” Anna says.
“They are causing havoc where they are causing havoc because they are following you” Gary says.
“And if I continue what I am doing?” Anna asked.
“More havoc would be caused, and more people would be following you, creating havoc themselves and fighting, one thing I am sure that you don’t want, and that is for the Borg to be following you, and that will happen eventually” Gary said.
“So you are saying it will end with a lot of chaos in the Galaxy and my being assimilated?” Anna asks.
“That is one way it could end, there are many possibilities, it is your choice, if not for your choice to explore the Galaxy, the Federation and the Commonwealth would have not known of each other for decades, possibly a century, now they know of each other, also the Kalateo Empire on the planet which they call Lateoval, you know whereof I speak, would still be standing, whereas it has now fallen and barbarians are destroying knowledge all over its former lands. Lateoval’s history would have been entirely different. There is practically no telling what effect that would have in the centuries and millennia ahead. The havoc that has been caused has weakened both the Federation and the Commonwealth, and possibly the Klingons also, they might fall sooner than they otherwise would have” Gary said.
“It is my choice?” Anna asks.
“It is, I, or the organisation whom I represent, will not hinder you, it is up to you” Gary says. Anna stays in that village for a month while thinking. She then leaves the planet and plots a course towards Lateoval, wondering whether Gary Seven had been truthful about the Kalateo Empire falling. She quickly passes through the core-ward edge of the Federation on the way. She arrives at Lateoval 3 months after leaving where she met Gary Seven. She finds that the Kalateo Empire had fallen, and that barbarians had been and still were sacking most of its cities.
She finds that its great libraries had been burned. The future for Lateoval had changed. ‘I hope the Preservers had taken heed and saved some of the Kalateo culture’ she thinks shortly before leaving the planet. She then sets course for the Commonwealth Earth. In her wake the Federation starship sends down some crewmembers to investigate the aftermath of the Kalateo’s fall. She arrives at the edge of Commonwealth space at the end of the year, after visiting many uninhabited planets along the way.
‘I can’t cause havoc where there is no one around’ she thinks.
The tensions between the Federation alliance and the New Dominion decrease. Cardassia stabilises more.
The station orbiting Ratalita is opened as a Federation station. It is Gamma Station Three. It is a base for exploration of nearby sectors of the Gamma Quadrant. Many first contacts are made at the station.
2423
Anna enters the Commonwealth and ship pushes the engines of the ship she is in as fast they can go. That however still draws the attention of Section 41. The recently refitted Enterprise SCC 2701 has to rescue her from them. The captain offers to take her to Earth. She accepts, as the Enterprise can go faster than the ship. It takes a week to get there.
The Section 31 agent, the Federation starship, and the Klingons follow the Enterprise. On arrival at CPN Earth, she goes to Starfleet Command, and asks them to call off the Commonwealth pursuit. One of the Admirals takes her aside and says that they have no control over Section 41, and they would pursue her anyway. She realises she would have to lose Section 41 anyhow. She then apologises for the havoc caused in the Commonwealth, and beams back up to the Enterprise with the Enterprise officers.
The Commonwealth Starfleet Command and the Commonwealth Council decide that to keep on following Anna, would probably lead to a possible conflict with the Federation. The Enterprise is ordered to contact the Federation starship and to ask them to take Anna back to the Federation. The Enterprise meets with the Starship Alabama and the Alabama takes Anna back to the Federation. The Alabama drops Anna off on a Federation planet, after 3 months of travel time.
Anna stays on the planet exploring it for 6 weeks. Then Q appears to her. “Let me guess, the Continuum wants you to follow me. I have made amends to the Commonwealth for causing havoc there!” Anna says.
“You may have made amends to the Commonwealth, but what about all those primitive worlds, where the agents following you have messed things up, not to mention Lateoval where you actually did interfere. The Kalateo had potential” Q says.
“Fine click your fingers, fix the problems, the Continuum can do it” Anna says.
“If the Continuum did do that sort of thing, they would be no better than the Borg, or many other races who set themselves up as false gods, If it was me a century ago, I would have been only too happy to do it, but now, I have an example to keep and the Continuum would probably strip me of my powers again” Q says.
“I don’t know what to do about it, you want me to go to Earth and make amends to the Federation too? Or wait for Gary Seven and give him some sort of message from the Continuum?” Anna says.
“It is your choice to make amends to the Federation, as for Gary Seven, it is none of your business what the Continuum thinks of him and the organisation he represents” Q says.
“I think I will go to Earth, make amends, and maybe then go around and try to fix some of the problems I caused. It is too late for Lateoval maybe, but probably not for most of the planets” Anna says.
“That is a good attitude, I can and allowed to provide a transportation service, for a limited amount of time” Q says.
“I accept your offer” Anna says.
“Where to?” Q asks.
“Earth, San Francisco” Anna says. Q clicks his fingers and he and Anna appear in San Francisco. Anna knows where she is when she appears there.
“When you are finished with the making of the amends with the Federation I shall be at a famous Creole Restaurant in New Orleans, the food there is worthy of the Continuum” Q says, and he vanishes in the customary flash of light. Anna goes to Starfleet Command and after explaining that Q brought her to Earth apologises for the havoc caused in the Federation. Starfleet Command wants to punish her for breaking the Prime Directive.
However the Federation Council, after much deliberation, clears her of all charges and allows her to go on her way. In the meantime, the Section 41 agents and the Klingons are thrown off Anna’s trail by Q’s teleportation of Anna; they go back to the Commonwealth and the Klingon Empire respectively. Anna arrives at the Sisko’s Creole Restaurant in New Orleans a month after arriving on Earth, at the beginning of July. After having a meal there she leaves Earth with Q again.
She and Q travel to various planets she had affected, those that Q says can be helped. Also they travel to the planets randomly, so that no one would be able to make sense of Anna’s journeying. This happens for 3 months. Then Q says that he has to leave her. “And now the Continuum says that I must leave you alone, most of the planets that can be helped have been, maybe I will introduce the Commonwealth to the Borg…” Q says.
“I will see you again?” Anna asks.
“Time will tell” Q says.
“I think introducing the Commonwealth to the Borg would produce more havoc that they can I’ll afford at this time” Anna says.
“You are right of course, the Commonwealth will probably learn of the Borg from the Federation, and now I must go” Q says, and he waves goodbye, and in a flash, he is gone, and Anna is back where she was 4 months before. She finds that the ship she had come in was as she left it, she sets out to explore again setting a course for the planet where she last met Gary Seven. She planet hops on warp capable and uninhabited planets all the way there, and arrives there at the end of the year.
Gary Seven is waiting for her when she lands where they had met before. “So? Have I averted more havoc, as you would have put it?” Anna asks.
“You have, making amends with both the Commonwealth and the Federation was good. You should have had taken my word about Lateoval though, you could have saved time, and not had needed help from the Q Continuum” Gary Seven says.
“How did you know about me being with Q? And it was just one Q, one who is well known to the Federation at that” Anna asks
“You were observed with him” Gary Seven says.
“Anyway, without his help the Klingons and Section 41 would still be following me, and I would have been here a year later” Anna says.
“True and you have done a good job fixing things at those planets, without Q’s help of course” Gary Seven says.
“Good” Anna says.
“And now you can continue with your exploration where you left off, you can continue going where you were going before, the area of space ahead is unknown to the Federation, the Klingons, the Commonwealth, the Borg and all other organisations you know about, other than the organisation I work for and the Q Continuum of course” Gary says.
“So I could just keep on going and it is mostly safe?” Anna asks.
“It isn’t that safe, but the Borg are not there – yet, and there is nothing like the Federation or the Commonwealth there either” Gary says.
“Ok” Anna says. And so Gary Seven leaves, Anna leaves the planet after staying overnight. Gary Seven didn’t need to tell her not to cause havoc, she had learned her lesson. She leaves the planet and heads off into the unknown, towards the Delta Quadrant…

2496
The Commonwealth establishes a base in the Dyson Sphere.
2497
At the Dyson Sphere, there is a minor crisis when a Starfleet officer breaks the Prime Directive and an industrial age civilisation begins to conquer the surrounding (pre-industrial, but still post-Iron Age) civilisations.
2498
The previous years’ crisis grows when another civilisation threatens to use nuclear weapons against the expanding civilisation if the Federation and its allies don’t stop the expansion by the end of the year. The Federation attempts diplomatic mediation but to no avail.
2499
The civilisation that threatened use of nuclear weapons uses them. As a result about 0.001% of the sphere’s surface begins to experience nuclear winter, after there is a MAD scenario with another nuclear power civilisation nearby. The climatic conditions of an additional 0.1% of the sphere is affected in some way by the nuclear winter. The Federation tries to bring relief to that area of the Sphere, but they have to evacuate a large amount of people to other areas of the Sphere…
2500
The situation in the Sphere continues to deteriorate, with some groups attacking the Federation/Klingon/Commonwealth etc presence in the Sphere, climatic conditions near the nuked zone continue to get worse, as the nuclear winter zone continues to expand.
2501
Many civilisations begin to battle against each other in the Sphere as paranoia runs rife with accusations by some civs against other civs continue to increase, the Starfleet Corps or Engineers in called in to find a way to stop the climatic conditions in the area of the Sphere near the MAD’ed areas getting any worse, and maybe improve the area’s.
2502
The SCE is stumped as to whether there is a way to influence the Sphere’s climate, there is still a lot that is mysterious about the Sphere. The wars continue, some civilisations continue to ally themselves with the Federation. The climatic conditions in the nuke war affected area continue to worsen.
2503
For some reason the climatic conditions begin to be repaired. The SCE surmise that the built-in climate control system of the Sphere took some time to begin to repair the climatic problems caused by the MAD scenario due to the age of the Sphere. The area affected by the nuclear winter and the surrounding climatic problems begins to shrink. The wars continue.
2504
The SCE teams locate a localised climate control system near to the MAD affected area. They try to figure out a solution to the problem as the Sphere continues to fix the problems by themselves. The wars reduce, due to diplomacy succeeding.
2505
The climatic conditions in that area of the Sphere continue to improve. The area directly affected by the nuclear winter has decreased by 5%. The wars caused by the situation have stopped by the end of the year.

Anna Jones leaves the Federation. She hitches a ride in Tom Paris’s Alpha Flyer personal exploration ship, out to the edge of explored territory, in the opposite direction from both the Dyson Sphere, and a new enemy of the Federation. She then planet hops for a year. She makes discoveries that Starfleet won’t for another decade.
The Defiant makes does some exploration close to the wormhole. Anti-Federation Terrorist groups perpetrate attacks against Federation activities in Cardassian space. This makes most Bajorans sure that the Cardassians are definitely not ready to join the Federation.
2417
A Borg ship is sighted near the Dyson Sphere by both a Starfleet and a Klingon ship in 2 separate incidents. The Gorn discover the Sphere.
Anna Jones runs into trouble on a pre-industrial planet, where she had been exploring for a few months. She is then rescued by a Section 31 agent whom had been following her since she had left the Federation. The agent doesn’t reveal this to her though. She then discovers an interstellar nation a lot like the Federation was in the 23rd Century, based on a duplicate Earth.
She is picked up by an Enterprise (SCC 2701) led by a Kirk-like captain. She accompanies them on a few missions before heading onwards around the edge of the space known to this ‘Commonwealth of Planetary Nations’ or ‘Commonwealth’ (or ‘CPN’) (whose maps she had been given by the captain), then planet-hops as before, before coming to an Empire at the end of the year. The Section 31 agent decides to urge her to keep the Commonwealth secret when she gets back to the Federation.
The agent also barely escapes from the Commonwealth’s version of Section 31.
The New Dominion stirs up trouble in the Gamma Quadrant. Cardassia continues to be troubled.
Geordi La Forge barely escapes the loss of the Challenger.
2418
It is a peaceful year in the Dyson Sphere. Exploration of the Sphere’s surface continues. Some teams do get into trouble from time to time.
Anna Jones escapes from the Empire she was trapped in at the end of the previous year, into Commonwealth space. She decides to visit some of the Commonwealth’s worlds. She does so. She rescues the Section 31 agent from the Commonwealth’s ‘Section 41’ (The Commonwealth’s version of Section 31). Then a month later, the Enterprise SCC 2701 has to rescue both of them from Section 41. The captain is convinced that Section 41 sees the Federation as a threat to the Commonwealth, though he doesn’t know why.
They soon have to stop a conspiracy from taking over the Commonwealth. After this the Commonwealth Starfleet Command orders the Enterprise to take Anna and the agent back to the Federation, and to make contact with it. On the edge of Federation space they contact the USS Europa. Anna takes off in her ship. And the Section 31 agent has to take one of the Europa’s shuttles to follow her. Unbeknownst to them some of the Section 41 agents who had been shadowing the Enterprise follow them.
Anna runs off in the direction of the Galactic rim, away from both the Federation and the Commonwealth, planet hopping as she had been before she ran into the Commonwealth.
The Enterprise/Europa contact goes well. The Europa sends the information about the Commonwealth to Starfleet Command. They order the Europa to stay where it is, and to stall the Enterprise until they could make a decision…
It is mostly peaceful at Deep Space Nine, and on Bajor, though not necessarily so on Cardassia.
2419
The Borg attack some Federation ships near the Dyson Sphere. Gary Seven appears on the Sphere, warning the leader of the Federation expedition there, that a time of trial is approaching. More regions of the Sphere are explored, with more teams running into trouble.
As Anna runs from the Federation and the Commonwealth, she runs into some Borg ships fleeing from something. “Not more trouble, maybe I should have run in the opposite direction” she says upon seeing the Borg ships. However whatever is troubling the Borg doesn’t trouble Anna… This is a mostly uneventful year, apart from Gary Seven somehow appearing on her ship, and telling her to prepare for a time of trial. “But he won’t tell me what that trial is” she puts in her log.
She stays on a preindustrial planet late in the year, and hangs out with a barbarian tribe who are troubling a Romanesque empire. Unbeknownst to her the Section 41 agents who had been trailing her infiltrate the ranks of that Empire’s military.
Starfleet Command tells the Europa to keep the existence of the Commonwealth a secret, and to tell the Enterprise that the Federation will make secret contact with the Commonwealth. The captain of the Enterprise doesn’t like this but he agrees and goes back to the Commonwealth. The Commonwealth Council agrees with the Federation stance, and decides to make secret contact with the Federation as well. Knowledge of the other nation is on a need to know basis in both Starfleets.
At Deep Space Nine, the Cardassian bid to join the Federation is turned down. The New Dominion raids some Federation and Klingon colonies, but doesn’t declare war.
2420
Some civilisations in the Dyson Sphere attack the Federation and Klingon presence in the Sphere, the reason for this is not known at the end of the year. In the meantime, many discoveries are made about the Sphere, though not before many teams get in trouble…
Anna accompanies some of the barbarians on a raid on the empire. She is captured by one of the Section 41 agents. He tells her that she shouldn’t have found the Commonwealth, and that general knowledge of the Federation, and its Earth in particular could be very devastating to its society. He wants to take her back to the Commonwealth Earth where she would be held prisoner in a facility in its Aotearoa. (Not New Zealand? She asks herself). She is interrogated briefly before the Section 31 agent rescues her with the help of the empire’s version of Section 31.
After this the agent reveals to Anna the truth about his/her work and Section 31. Anna doesn’t like this one bit, and runs off, crashing her ship on another continent of the planet, leaving the agent to fight in the empire against the Section 41 agents. Anna realises she has to get back to the empire before she can get off the planet. She then spends half of the year getting back there, encountering many tribes and civilisations along the way.
When she gets back, she finds that the empire is not as it has been, with the fighting between the agents having devastated it, having exasperated the empire’s troubles. She then steals one of the Section 41 ships and leaves the planet, heading in the direction of the Klingon Empire. She doesn’t get there before December though, running into Gary Seven again. He sends her on a mission on Preserver/Human planet…
After this she finds that she was followed by the agents.
In the Gamma Quadrant, tensions between the Federation and its allies and the New Dominion increase… Cardassia has a lot more troubles as the ramifications of the refusal of Federation admittance continues to be felt.
2421
There is war in the Dyson Sphere as groups that do not like the UFP/Klingon/First Federation/etc presence in the Sphere, attack their presence in the Sphere, and the civilisations that had allied with them. In the midst of this the Borg attempt to assimilate the Sphere, though their attack is driven off with a lot of success. The war comes to an end towards the end of the year. More secrets are discovered about the Sphere.
Anna enters the Klingon Empire and visits many of their worlds, including Qo’nos. However the Commonwealth agents and the Section 31 agent follow her into Klingon space. A Klingon Imperial Intelligence agent approaches Anna and tells her about her predicament. It also appears that the Klingons know about the Commonwealth as well. Also it seems that the Federation Council wants her for breaking the Prime Directive.
“I am not a Starfleet officer, I was never in the Academy” she says.
“It seems that they want you anyway, you have disrupted cultures on many planets, your journey seems to have caused a lot of havoc, and the Federation Council wants to talk to you” the agent says.
“What about the High Council, what do they say?” she asks.
“The Chancellor knows you are in Klingon territory, as for the rest of the Council I don’t know, but he says that you may stay as long as you wish” He says.
Anna decides to stay in Klingon space for a while, and she does. She leaves Klingon space in the middle of the year in the opposite direction to the one she entered it, and then planet-hops on warp-capable planets towards the galactic rim. With the Section 31 agent, a Federation starship, the Section 41 agents, a Commonwealth starship (but not the Enterprise), the Klingon I.I. agent and a Klingon Defence Force ship following her.
Tensions between the Federation alliance and the New Dominion continue to increase. Cardassia stabilises.
The planet Ratalita, in the Gamma Quadrant, joins the Federation, at the end of the year. The ancient station orbiting it becomes a Starfleet station.
2422
Anna continues to run along the edge of the Galaxy, in the direction of the Gamma Quadrant, she is still pursued, by all who were pursuing her in the previous year. She visits many warp capable planets, and then pre-warp post-industrial planets when warp capable planets become few and far between. In the middle of the year, she lands on a pre-industrial planet and is resting in a village when Gary Seven meets her.
“You have to stop running Anna! You have left havoc behind you, and you would create more” he says.
“It is not just me! It is the agents following me as well” Anna says.
“They are causing havoc where they are causing havoc because they are following you” Gary says.
“And if I continue what I am doing?” Anna asked.
“More havoc would be caused, and more people would be following you, creating havoc themselves and fighting, one thing I am sure that you don’t want, and that is for the Borg to be following you, and that will happen eventually” Gary said.
“So you are saying it will end with a lot of chaos in the Galaxy and my being assimilated?” Anna asks.
“That is one way it could end, there are many possibilities, it is your choice, if not for your choice to explore the Galaxy, the Federation and the Commonwealth would have not known of each other for decades, possibly a century, now they know of each other, also the Kalateo Empire on the planet which they call Lateoval, you know whereof I speak, would still be standing, whereas it has now fallen and barbarians are destroying knowledge all over its former lands. Lateoval’s history would have been entirely different. There is practically no telling what effect that would have in the centuries and millennia ahead. The havoc that has been caused has weakened both the Federation and the Commonwealth, and possibly the Klingons also, they might fall sooner than they otherwise would have” Gary said.
“It is my choice?” Anna asks.
“It is, I, or the organisation whom I represent, will not hinder you, it is up to you” Gary says. Anna stays in that village for a month while thinking. She then leaves the planet and plots a course towards Lateoval, wondering whether Gary Seven had been truthful about the Kalateo Empire falling. She quickly passes through the core-ward edge of the Federation on the way. She arrives at Lateoval 3 months after leaving where she met Gary Seven. She finds that the Kalateo Empire had fallen, and that barbarians had been and still were sacking most of its cities.
She finds that its great libraries had been burned. The future for Lateoval had changed. ‘I hope the Preservers had taken heed and saved some of the Kalateo culture’ she thinks shortly before leaving the planet. She then sets course for the Commonwealth Earth. In her wake the Federation starship sends down some crewmembers to investigate the aftermath of the Kalateo’s fall. She arrives at the edge of Commonwealth space at the end of the year, after visiting many uninhabited planets along the way.
‘I can’t cause havoc where there is no one around’ she thinks.
The tensions between the Federation alliance and the New Dominion decrease. Cardassia stabilises more.
The station orbiting Ratalita is opened as a Federation station. It is Gamma Station Three. It is a base for exploration of nearby sectors of the Gamma Quadrant. Many first contacts are made at the station.
2423
Anna enters the Commonwealth and ship pushes the engines of the ship she is in as fast they can go. That however still draws the attention of Section 41. The recently refitted Enterprise SCC 2701 has to rescue her from them. The captain offers to take her to Earth. She accepts, as the Enterprise can go faster than the ship. It takes a week to get there.
The Section 31 agent, the Federation starship, and the Klingons follow the Enterprise. On arrival at CPN Earth, she goes to Starfleet Command, and asks them to call off the Commonwealth pursuit. One of the Admirals takes her aside and says that they have no control over Section 41, and they would pursue her anyway. She realises she would have to lose Section 41 anyhow. She then apologises for the havoc caused in the Commonwealth, and beams back up to the Enterprise with the Enterprise officers.
The Commonwealth Starfleet Command and the Commonwealth Council decide that to keep on following Anna, would probably lead to a possible conflict with the Federation. The Enterprise is ordered to contact the Federation starship and to ask them to take Anna back to the Federation. The Enterprise meets with the Starship Alabama and the Alabama takes Anna back to the Federation. The Alabama drops Anna off on a Federation planet, after 3 months of travel time.
Anna stays on the planet exploring it for 6 weeks. Then Q appears to her. “Let me guess, the Continuum wants you to follow me. I have made amends to the Commonwealth for causing havoc there!” Anna says.
“You may have made amends to the Commonwealth, but what about all those primitive worlds, where the agents following you have messed things up, not to mention Lateoval where you actually did interfere. The Kalateo had potential” Q says.
“Fine click your fingers, fix the problems, the Continuum can do it” Anna says.
“If the Continuum did do that sort of thing, they would be no better than the Borg, or many other races who set themselves up as false gods, If it was me a century ago, I would have been only too happy to do it, but now, I have an example to keep and the Continuum would probably strip me of my powers again” Q says.
“I don’t know what to do about it, you want me to go to Earth and make amends to the Federation too? Or wait for Gary Seven and give him some sort of message from the Continuum?” Anna says.
“It is your choice to make amends to the Federation, as for Gary Seven, it is none of your business what the Continuum thinks of him and the organisation he represents” Q says.
“I think I will go to Earth, make amends, and maybe then go around and try to fix some of the problems I caused. It is too late for Lateoval maybe, but probably not for most of the planets” Anna says.
“That is a good attitude, I can and allowed to provide a transportation service, for a limited amount of time” Q says.
“I accept your offer” Anna says.
“Where to?” Q asks.
“Earth, San Francisco” Anna says. Q clicks his fingers and he and Anna appear in San Francisco. Anna knows where she is when she appears there.
“When you are finished with the making of the amends with the Federation I shall be at a famous Creole Restaurant in New Orleans, the food there is worthy of the Continuum” Q says, and he vanishes in the customary flash of light. Anna goes to Starfleet Command and after explaining that Q brought her to Earth apologises for the havoc caused in the Federation. Starfleet Command wants to punish her for breaking the Prime Directive.
However the Federation Council, after much deliberation, clears her of all charges and allows her to go on her way. In the meantime, the Section 41 agents and the Klingons are thrown off Anna’s trail by Q’s teleportation of Anna; they go back to the Commonwealth and the Klingon Empire respectively. Anna arrives at the Sisko’s Creole Restaurant in New Orleans a month after arriving on Earth, at the beginning of July. After having a meal there she leaves Earth with Q again.
She and Q travel to various planets she had affected, those that Q says can be helped. Also they travel to the planets randomly, so that no one would be able to make sense of Anna’s journeying. This happens for 3 months. Then Q says that he has to leave her. “And now the Continuum says that I must leave you alone, most of the planets that can be helped have been, maybe I will introduce the Commonwealth to the Borg…” Q says.
“I will see you again?” Anna asks.
“Time will tell” Q says.
“I think introducing the Commonwealth to the Borg would produce more havoc that they can I’ll afford at this time” Anna says.
“You are right of course, the Commonwealth will probably learn of the Borg from the Federation, and now I must go” Q says, and he waves goodbye, and in a flash, he is gone, and Anna is back where she was 4 months before. She finds that the ship she had come in was as she left it, she sets out to explore again setting a course for the planet where she last met Gary Seven. She planet hops on warp capable and uninhabited planets all the way there, and arrives there at the end of the year.
Gary Seven is waiting for her when she lands where they had met before. “So? Have I averted more havoc, as you would have put it?” Anna asks.
“You have, making amends with both the Commonwealth and the Federation was good. You should have had taken my word about Lateoval though, you could have saved time, and not had needed help from the Q Continuum” Gary Seven says.
“How did you know about me being with Q? And it was just one Q, one who is well known to the Federation at that” Anna asks
“You were observed with him” Gary Seven says.
“Anyway, without his help the Klingons and Section 41 would still be following me, and I would have been here a year later” Anna says.
“True and you have done a good job fixing things at those planets, without Q’s help of course” Gary Seven says.
“Good” Anna says.
“And now you can continue with your exploration where you left off, you can continue going where you were going before, the area of space ahead is unknown to the Federation, the Klingons, the Commonwealth, the Borg and all other organisations you know about, other than the organisation I work for and the Q Continuum of course” Gary says.
“So I could just keep on going and it is mostly safe?” Anna asks.
“It isn’t that safe, but the Borg are not there – yet, and there is nothing like the Federation or the Commonwealth there either” Gary says.
“Ok” Anna says. And so Gary Seven leaves, Anna leaves the planet after staying overnight. Gary Seven didn’t need to tell her not to cause havoc, she had learned her lesson. She leaves the planet and heads off into the unknown, towards the Delta Quadrant…

For some reason the climatic conditions begin to be repaired. The SCE surmise that the built-in climate control system of the Sphere took some time to begin to repair the climatic problems caused by the MAD scenario due to the age of the Sphere. The area affected by the nuclear winter and the surrounding climatic problems begins to shrink. The wars continue.
2504
The SCE teams locate a localised climate control system near to the MAD affected area. They try to figure out a solution to the problem as the Sphere continues to fix the problems by themselves. The wars reduce, due to diplomacy succeeding.
2505
The climatic conditions in that area of the Sphere continue to improve. The area directly affected by the nuclear winter has decreased by 5%. The wars caused by the situation have stopped by the end of the year.
