Rivalry For The Borg Queen (Part One)



My dear Seven of Nine,

I hope you are picking up lots of information about human characteristics while you are on the Enterprise. It will come in useful when I return to collect you and we assimilate them.

I'm sending you this account of an incident that just happened on Unimatrix 01, which is my Cube, and where we sent you from.

-------------------------------

Everything is going normal for me today; I have just composed a list of planets and races that I would like to be assimilated by the end of the week. The drones will plot a course to take them all in the fasted way, so we can all be resting in our alcoves without a problem.

Suddenly the Cube scanners identify a Borg escape pod; the strangest part of it is that the signature of it is not from this universe. It seems to have come from somewhere else.

With curiosity, I send out a hail and ask the passenger to identify themself; eventually an image flashes on the VidScreen.



"She looks like that annoying Deanna Troi from the Enterprise." I said to myself.

"This is the Borg Queen Deanna Troi" she continues, "I request to come aboard your Cube."

Naturally this amazes me; where did this Borg Queen come from? I use the tractor beam to bring her in.

When she emerges, I see she has a slight injury, which the drones repair; afterwards, we start talking.

"I come from a parallel universe" Troi told me, "When I came through to this one, I had an encounter with the Enterprise. I'm determined to get my revenge. We shall go and assimilate them right now...especially that Deanna!"

This Borg Queen is very aggressive; a little headstrong, perhaps; no diplomacy. not the sort who would smile while assimilating someone.

"Hold on a moment!" I tell her, "I have one of my drones on there right now, providing an important function for the Borg."

"Drones are expendible!" Troi tells me dismissively, "The Enterprise must me assimilated NOW! It's clear that the Borg in this universe are far too week. What they need is a strong Queen like me to lead them. You can serve me."

I can't believe what I'm hearing.

"Are you challenging me, Troi?" I asked her, "May I remind you that I am the Queen here, and you have been rescued. You can't be that good a Queen if you had to get away in an Escape Pod after an encounter with the Enterprise."

She starts to look very angry; I can sense trouble here.

"The drones here will support me." Troi says, "They respect a good leader."

I look at the drones; they seem to like that figure-hugging outfit she is wearing.

I'm starting to worry.

To be continued...

I wish I looked that good as a borg. Sheesh!

Professor Xavier said...

Well I'm glad you're using that picture of Troi again. That is quite simply my favorite.

A Army Of (Cl)One said...

first and formost let me say "Damm boyezz!" Ok, now that is out of my system.

More borgs is never a good thing, unless they look like that or & after the make over. Borg vs. Borg gives me noone to root for.

Bry... said...

uh.. she really isn't that good looking guys...

Nic said...

Wow, somebody got their cheerios tinkled on this morning. What a GRUMP! I'm rooting for you Borg Queen from this universe! If I HAD to be assimilated I'd rather someone do it with a smile.

Hiya, and thnx for stopping by my blog. We were married on 7th of 9th and were quite aware what we had in common with that date. It's easy to remember too lol.

I'm not a great fan of Star-trek but my brother in law is totally into it all. He has the whole collection of videos.

Oh I added myself to your map :)

Have a great day!

I think I prefer leather to spandex, and Our Borg Queens has hooks into her flesh, I mean she's tough. Look out Deanna she might pull your hair!

merlyn said...

I agree with Florence..leather over spandex, leather is cool spandex is cheezy.
Nuff said!

Even if the drones are on Queen Troi's side, the real queen should have Seven's support, right?! Hmmm...

Paperback Writer said...

Borg Queen Showdown! Who's got the popcorn?

Lahdeedah said...

I think the hostile anger is a devious ploy. Borg Troi is going to turn the borgs in this universe into sensitive, in-touch-with-inner-borg-emotion wusses. It's only a matter of time before the entire borg race falls to their knees in tears and stops assimilating until they've all had group therapy.

Then, when the real Troi encounters the borg, she will sense 'great despair, and longing, they desperately want to be accepted...'

Erifia Apoc said...

I am glad I am 1/8 of Species 8472. This Troi character seems pretty tough.

Bill said...

I'd follow her. She has all the qualities of a good leader - white teeth, shiny hair, and a very fine ass.

She could assimilate me anytime.

If Troi is Borg Queen in a paralell universe, what is her MOTHER?

emi said...

That would be the Borg Queen-mother, with the hots for Locutus.

No matter how you look at it, chick fights just aren't very dignified!

aug said...

i like that figure hugging outfit, too! guess i have all the qualities needed to be a lowly and expendable drone then... ;_;

i hope i get a cool-looking eye-enhancement-piece.

Just looking at the weather map, and you are heading towards a 35C (95F) day tomorrow.
"Shields Up Number One, and pass round the sun block!"

Jean-Luc Picard said...

Mimi, I'm sure the Borg would arrange that.

Florence & Merlyn, I agree with those clothing choices.

Nic, I like that philosophy of yours: "Assimilation with a smile." Perhaps the Borg ought to use it as a recruitment motto?

Trin, good point there.

Erifia, I'm sure the Borg will avoid you.

Bill, an interesting point there.

Lahdeedah, your comment was hilarious!

Spider-man, I'm sure Wes' girl will turn up sometime.

Susan, what is a horrifying thought. All shields indeed need to be up at maximum, they are bucking under the intense heat.

Hmmmm too many queens spoil the cude
