Story:Star Trek: Conflict

Star Trek: Conflict is a revisionist view on the Star Trek interim history. The Enterprise-C survives the blood-bath at Narendra III (see "Yesterday's Enterprise" for full details of the event), but comes out badly damaged and with most of its crew missing. With a new captain, a new crew and a sister-ship, the USS Admonitor, the Enterprise-C returns for Earth to be repaired before the crew is debriefed. However, the crew soon realizes that something is wrong...

With the Federation...

Instead of a peaceful, utopian society, a corrupt, bureaucratic, xenophobic group rules with deception, lies and power. How can this be? Did the survival of the Enterprise-C create a third, unlooked-for time-line, or has the unexpected finally come to pass?

When the captains of the Enterprise-C and the Admonitor protest the actions of the Federation, they are exiled and made public enemies. Uniting, these renegades decide that they must save the Federation from itself.

All the rules have changed. Old enemies become new allies. New threats loom on the horizon, new opportunities await and two Starfleet crews find themselves in a situation they were not trained for: a situation of Conflict

But "those that live by the sword die by the sword" means that, even in victory, Conflict will not end well. A price has to be paid. For every revolution or reformation to occur, someone has to be the martyr. One must pay the price so that others may reap the benefits. As Spock was so fond of quoting, "the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, or the one."

(Note: I have already come up with many ideas for characters and events, but I will need some advice on how to make this better) (These are just the main ideas of certain episodes that I've came up with, but I still need a crew. The Author 22:39, 5 May 2009 (UTC))

''Furthermore, though I do welcome peoples' imput, being the author, I do have final say on what gets put in my story. Therefore, it is advised that, if you have any ideas, contact me first. The Author 16:23, 10 October 2009 (EST)

Theme

 * This is not really needful, but I thought that it needed an epic rousing theme. Something that gives the story the feel that its not only a part of some greater legacy thats been ongoing for over forty years (aka. Star Trek saga), but that paves its own path into the final frontier... (Bookworm1138 22:11, 18 June 2009 (UTC))
