Hello to all! Welcome to my first fanfiction! Right now this is an experiment for me; I always say that you should try new things, so I am trying this out to see if it is something I enjoy. If it is, then I will continue to upload. Keep in mind that if I decide to branch out and write multiple fanfics, then be aware that, for my uploading schedule, I will only focus on one story at a time, so that followers of said story don't have to deal with an uncertain upload schedule. As for the scheduling of my uploads if I decide to continue this, then be aware that my upload frequency will depend on both the popularity of my story and on the amount of free time that I have (keep in mind that I am still a student, and as such I only have a limited amount of free time). That being said, I wouldn't expect anything more than one upload a week on a regular basis, and that is only if this story manages to get any serious number of followers. As for the story, this story will be a crossover between Star Trek Online and Star Wars Rebels (because despite being on its third season, there have been no crossovers between SWR and Star Trek!). I chose STO because it allowed me the most creative freedom, so I will be using my own captains (with the name of my Federation captain somewhat altered to protect my identity), the bridge crew of those captain, and my ships. Even though I will probably use all of my captains at some point, my focus will remain on my Starfleet captain, so don't expect any regular chapters of my Klingon or Romulan captains. For Star Wars Rebels, I will not be using any OCs, and I won't be taking any creative direction with the characters, I will instead attempt to write them in the most accurate way to how they are portrayed in the show. On the front of time, this story will take place during S2 of Rebels, and will start a few days after the episode "Stealth Strike" (which for those of you who don't remember is the episode with the prototype interdictor ship). For STO, this will take place in December of 2411, which is the time period that I estimate the game is at after the end of whatever conflict there will be with the Tzenkethi. I will also be using the Earthdate system over the Stardate system for two reasons, the first is that it will fit better with my particular captain (you'll understand later), and the second is that I simply don't understand the Stardate system. This will not be changed. As a final note, I don't have a particular direction in mind yet for this story, so suggestions for plot elements are welcome. Now, on with the show!
Star Trek: Rebel Frontier
A Star Trek/Star Wars Crossover Fanfiction
Prologue
Unknown Time
Unknown Location
Q was bored. True, he was always bored, but today he was especially bored. When he first accepted the powers of the Q, he thought that his life would never be boring again, not with the entirety of time and space to explore, not with the unimaginable power that came with being a member of the Q continuum. And yet now, he found that he was more bored than he had ever been in his life. He was alone, sulking invisibly in orbit of some inconsequential rock that he did not care to learn the name of. One might feel confused that he was this bored, yet chose to remain alone, but to Q, solitude was preferable to company among his fellow Q; he found the whole lot of the other Q to be unbearably dull company, and he found the continuum where they resided to be stifling. Q much preferred to be here, away from it all, from the dull responsibilities of being a Q. As it was, he couldn't stop his mind from recalling better days: of his first day as a Q, experiencing the power of the Q for the first time, from his adventures across both time and space, even his experiences with those primitive monkeys. Oh, how he missed those games and diversions with good old Jean-Luc, violent, brutish Sisko, and the beautiful, fierce Kathy. But those days were gone; Jean-Luc had finally retired, settled on his family's vineyard with his wife Beverly, Kathy had become an admiral in Starfleet, and was stationed permanently on that rock that they called Earth (plus his wife would kill him if he ever tried to see her again), and Sisko had ascended and become a being almost as powerful as himself.
Despite the fact that he had found several good replacements for his games, the other Q had forbade him from showing himself to these new entertaining, violent monkeys; it seems that even the other Q had finally gotten fed up with his games. It was thus that Q found himself here, in a galaxy and time period far removed from the Milky Way Galaxy in the time of the Federation, wondering if Quinn might have had the right idea committing suicide. He was suddenly and rudely pulled away from his thoughts when a small ship raced past him, followed by a much larger triangular vessel. Annoyed, Q extended his thoughts to read the minds of those aboard those ships. What he found actually interested him. Aboard the large ship were a group of humans almost as brutish and tyrannical as those humans from what Starfleet called the Mirror Universe, while the smaller ship was filled with a group of beings who stood up to their power. He smiled as an idea suddenly popped into his mind. Using his power, he was able to tell the time and place where these two ships would meet again, and he subtly wore the space-time continuum there thin. He travelled to the Milky Way Galaxy, near where one of the more potentially entertaining monkeys' ship was, and created a similar, but more visible disturbance. It would only take a little interference, say, weapons fire or intensive scanning, for the two anomalies to connect and form what the monkeys would refer to as a wormhole. He smiled in anticipation; the connection of these two times and places would certainly create a new and exciting situation, and he couldn't wait to see how the stupid monkeys reacted. He reclined at this new spot, and waited to witness entertainment worthy of a Q.
