Episode 27: "We need help. Signed, the Borg"

USS Gibraltar RP, 25th of March 2009
Episode 27: "We need help. Signed: the Borg"

Cast and crew:
Captain: RoBobby McMillan
Tactical: Lieutenant Junior Grade Sereana Westland
Engineering: C2C Angel Sachertorte
Borg expert: Lt. Kieran Braveheart
Borg Queen: Rain Torvalar

Summary:
With their prisoner being turned over to Starfleet, the crew of the USS Gibraltar returns to their patrol site, trying to find an explanation to the odd behaviour of the Borg. After all, in such a weakened state, after the crippling blow Voyager gave them, they should not be attacking the Federation. And yet. . . they were.

Answers came in the form of a visitor. . . one whom the Captain remembered from his short time as a Borg. It was the Borg queen herself. She came on board with a rather unusual request: a request for help.

As it turned out, Lore, the Android brother of former Lt.Cmdr. Data, was reassembled by the Borg, but had gotten out of control. He had used his knowledge of the Borg to form his own collective once again, and this time, he had sent them against the Federation. The Borg queen seemed to be losing her hold over her followers. Chaos had erupted in the perfect collective. Chaos the Federation would be able to help solve.

The Borg Queen provided the co-ordinates of Lore. . . but it was quickly discovered that there were several Borg ships in orbit: Borg loyal to Lore. So a Federation fleet was formed. . . and pretty soon, the Gibraltar would be one of those, trying to destroy Lore. . . helping a ruthless enemy get rid of an enemy even *more* ruthless.
