Story:Star Trek: Conflict/Face of Evil

While on Earth, the crew of the Enterprise-C and Admonitor discover what has really happened in the sixty years they've been gone.

Chapter One
Edward Shield and Lianna Young are both standing outside the waiting room of the Federation Council chamber. They are to meet with the Council, the president and the admiralty of Starfleet regarding their sudden appearance on Earth. Both of them feel like they're in trouble, and they have no reassuring words to say to each other to the contrary.

They enter. Presiding over the meeting are the Federation President - a Bolian - Admiral Nechayev, Admiral Janeway, Admiral Carlton, Admiral Calhoun, Admiral Picard, Rear Admiral McBeath, Vice Admiral Cadmium, Rear Admiral Shelby and several others.
