Inevitability (Star Trek: Myriad Universes)

Jean-Luc Picard and the remaining Resistance fighters assess their situation. Most of their people were killed. Someone suggests bringing another resistance cell in to help, but various cells are shot down for different reasons. In addition, they have no chance of navigating the timestream without Data, who has been taken by the Klingons. As Beverly Crusher informs them of another death, several people are ready to give up when an alarm sounds. Picard orders everyone to defend the entrance as invaders beam in. However, instead of Klingons, the new arrivals are fellow rebels Geordi La Forge and Will Riker, along with the Silver Ghost, Hikaru Sulu.

Picard explains the plan to Riker, Sulu and La Forge, though it is hindered by the loss of Data. Picard knows, thanks to an informant, that Data is on the warlord's flagship, and, with the help of Sulu and the Excelsior, they can get him back and change the past.

Aboard the flagship, Terran Warlord Worf explains to his concubine, Deanna Troi about Data's capture and the trap he is laying for the Resistance and his own troubles. He then tells Deanna that he has known all along she has been a Resistance agent and he only kept her around in the event that she would reveal their location. In response, she says that she never loved him and that she did not assassinate him because he had (at least until recently) been relatively lenient and anyone the Klingon Empire replaced him with would be more brutal. Worf kisses Deanna and stabs her to death.

Aboard the Excelsior, the Klingon flagship comes into view. Suddenly, a fleet of birds-of-prey decloak, revealing the trap. In order to allow his allies to succeed, Sulu beams into the shuttle, hails Worf, and taunts him with the memory of their last fight and the loss of his eye. Worf takes the bait, kills a transporter chief in rage and lowers the ship's shields (allowing the Excelsior to retrieve Data) and beams his rival aboard to face him in single combat.

Worf and Sulu fight each other in vicious battle, distracting him while his crew prepares the Excelsior for its journey into the past, but the flagship is still pursuing them. Worf breaks Sulu's sword with his Bat'leth, but Sulu is able to impale Worf's remaining eye with the broken blade. Worf then stabs Sulu with the bat'leth, mortally wounding him. With his last breath, Sulu uses his remote to ram the shuttle into the flagship, destroying it. Rachel Garrett names Picard the new Captain and, after remembering the encouraging final words from Guinan, orders the ship to travel to the past...
