Julia and Andrew hurried into the room as the alarm blared. "Activate scanner," ordered Julia even as Andrew pulled out a blue crystal. "What's the disturbance?"
"Earth, April 1912. An iceberg in the North Atlantic. It's emitting a Level 3 temporal disturbance."
"Signature?"
"It looks Lacokstan. Yes." His expression darkened. "It's Dr. Iteris."
"Dr. Iteris and a Level 3 disturbance. I think we'd better check it out. Will the counter-flash do any damage?"
Andrew entered a few calculations. "Depends on how you define damage."
"What will happen?"
"We will catapult roughly a dozen people into England 1912 with us, one of them a joined Trill."
"Thier profiles?"
"I have profiles on several, including Captain Benjamin Sisko, the then Colonel Kira, Odo, Dr. Julian Bashir, Shakaar Edon, and the then Ensign Nog, as well as a history of the Dax symbiont. I'm afraid I don't have anything on the host herself, Ezri." Pulling out a yellow crystal, he handed it to Julia.
Julia gazed at the information. Andrew knew the decision would be up to her. When they had first been assigned together over 5 years ago, he had been resentful on taking orders from a 14-year-old when he was 16, but in time he had come to realize she was the better one of the two of them on making decisions. Now she was 20, and he was 22.
"It's worth the risk." she said at last. "Prepare the crystal for transport, England 1912 April 8 Earthdate. Try to set us up in a quiet spot. And see if we can get tickets for the Titanic. If I recall correctly, it was playing with the icebergs around that time. And get the cosmetics. We'll be needing lots of those."
Within half an hour, all was ready. Julia and Andrew stood opposite a clear crytal, the other crystals, with a pile of other things, placed below where they could be moved to 1912 and back at will.
Julia placed her hands on one side of the crystal. Andrew placed his hands on the other side. Julia spoke. "Temporit. Hear us now, fufill our wish. Ignite, and send us to April 8, 1912, Southampton, England. Now!"
A white light enveloped them, and sent them flying into the past. A counter flash flew through the space-time continuum, hitting Deep Space 9, and bringing people back to 1912 as it rebounded.
