This is actually what I'm kind of hoping for later down in the road. SI Adam is going to personally recruit Tom for when he goes to DS9.

Paramount-SkyDance Own Star Trek. For Entertainment Purposes Only. Non-Profit.
The rest of the year flies by as "Frame of Mind", "Suspicions", "Rightful Heir", and "Second Chances" all take place as they do in the series proper without any intervention from me. It is Christmas Eve 2369...my fourth Christmas now in the Star Trek universe, as once again I cook Turkey dinner for the senior staff, this has become something of a tradition now. All of us are enjoying ourselves. The next day I rest as I have taken a day of shore leave--I have several dozen days banked now...when all of a sudden...Red Alert goes off and I gather myself up off the couch and head to the bridge.
I enter the bridge and Captain Picard does so from his ready room at the same time.
"We've received a distress signal from the Ohniaka III Outpost. They say they're under attack." Riker tells Picard
"Ohniaka Three? There's no strategic value to that outpost. Were they able to identify the attackers?" Picard replies
"No, we haven't been able to raise them since the initial attack." Riker reports
"We are nearing the Ohnika System, sir." Worf reports
"Bring us out warp Ensign." Picard commands
We drop out of warp into normal space and Worf gives his report about the unidentified ship in orbit. Oh no.
"Captain..." I start to speak up
"Yes Mr. Young? Do you recognize that ship?"
I tug on my uniform as I stand up and nod.
"Yes sir, I do. It's a Borg ship."
Both Picard and Riker exchange glances at each other then Picard continues to press me.
"A Borg ship...it is unlike anything we have encountered before."
"Yes sir. I know. I recommend that we...do not engage them...the people on the outpost are dead. This was staged to lure us here...to lure...Data here."
Data turns around at that comment and everyone looks at him now.
The Borg ship realize that we haven't taken the bait like in the episode and begin firing on us. We return fire, and it has no effect on them as they set course for the Delta Quadrant using their transwarp drive. Picard orders us to pursue but we obvious lose them. Picard looks at me, then with more concern at Data.
"Senior Staff meeting immediately, Number One. Mr. Young."
"Aye sir."
We've encountered Lore's Borg, but Lore should have seen me coming. This may give us the advantage this time around, as all of us leave the bridge for the observation lounge.
