I posted this drabble to my website in March, and thought it might be of
some small interest.


                              THE VAULT
              A Star Trek: The Next Generation Drabble

"We've identified one of the bodies."

Elizabeth Shelby looked skeptical.  "Which one?"

Artifacts collected across the galaxy over the past two centuries crowded
every alcove.  At the far end stood three cryogenic tubes. Frozen within
were the bodies of three -things-, once intelligent beings now turned into
something else, inhuman and cybernetic--Borg.

"The human one."  Genetic testing had established that over a
century before.

"You've located his family?"

"We've located -him-.  An exact genetic match."

"What?"

"Cadet Sean Hawk, Starfleet Academy."

Shelby could only wonder how an Academy cadet became a Borg over two
hundred years in the past.

LORD ARAGORN: Well, Legolas and Gimli, with the help of Gandalf the
   White,  formerly Gandalf  the Grey,  also known  as  Gandalf the
   Beige,  we  have  defeated  the  Uruk-hai  in a giant  computer-
   generated battle.  Now we must make haste to the Really Big Rock
   of  Karambador, before  the forces of  Ba'Zoot,  led by the evil
   King Weltpimple,  conquer the  Mullions of Gneep  and obtain the
   Remote Control Unit of Doom!
LEGOLAS: Now you're just making stuff up.
   -- Dave Barry, "Bored of the Rings"
