Back in Time: Civil War II Chapter Thirty-Three

“That should do it, Doctor,” said Scotty. “Energy levels in the cavourite drive are back to normal.”

“Thank you, Scotty,” said Magus.

The wizard then walked over to the main engineering console and accessed the computer. He soon found the program he was looking for, a program he had installed with the help and the blessings of the Time Lords.

Soon, Beckett was seated at the controls of the shuttle. Pendragon kneeled down beside him.

“There’s no need to talk me through the controls, Captain,” said Beckett. “I’ve been here before, remember?”

“Your leap into Captain Watt, you mean,” said Pendragon. “Very well, Doctor. Good luck.”

            “Captain, we're being hailed,” Greenleaf reported.

Realizing that they could be destroyed, Pendragon was running out of options. Perhaps talking to them would delay the inevitable, but it was all he had at the moment.

The Kabreigny Object loomed large on the view-screen. It was all that Albert Calevicchi could think about.

Back in Time: Civil War II Chapter Twenty-Eight

Project Quantum Leap, Stallion's Gate, New Mexico, 2000

Once again the Jem'Hadar attacked Watt, and once again the battle was fierce. Using every piece of their fighting skill, they fought Watt tooth and nail, using fists and phaser. Those watching had to take cover several times, or they would have found themselves dead at the hands of 24th century weaponry. For one of the few times in his life, Gushie felt brave, and although phaser blasts rained down all around him, he continued to monitor the situation in the imaging chamber. The energy from the phaser blasts were sending the energy levels sky high, and with Beckett's task done, Gushie knew that he could leap any minute.

With the defense shield having been taken out with one shot, Watt knew he had to do something to help. After all, he was one of the most powerful people on the planet. He could inflict some damage on the Imperial ships. After Ziggy let him out of the complex, he began to fly to the surface.

The first thing he saw surprised him. He soon saw Magus standing atop the mountain, using his vast power to battle the two Imperial ships. Watt watched as Magus seemed to be getting the upper hand in this battle. While watching this battle he failed to notice several Jem'Hadar warriors beam down behind him. He soon discovered they were there when a phaser blast hit him in the back, sending him falling face-first to the ground.

Back in Time: Civil War II Chapter Twenty-Six

 New York City, 1967

It was like a dream come true. The last time Daniel Reid had been in New York City was when he was a small boy, having been taken there on holiday by his parents. Now he was there again, thirty-three years in the past, and he wasn't able to touch anything.

Reid found himself standing outside an old blues club on 52nd Street, listening to someone screech away to a lone piano tune. Reid didn't recognize the singer, but he recognized the piano player.
