Due to an Ensign Alexandria Munro serving aboard the USS Voyager the Alexandria Munro from the year 2400 was serving under the name Alexia Morningstar. Due to Telsia Murphy currently a criminal due to joining the Maquis the Telsia Murphy from the year 2400 was serving under the name Teala Masters. They were the captain and first officer of the USS Cerberus a Prometheus class. They were on their way to Deep Space 9 from Beta Antares Ship Yards. Munro & Murphy were two of the few living personnel aboard the Cerberus, the rest of the crew were all holographic, it was an experiment to see if a holographic crewman could take over when the biological one was killed or incapacitated and it holographic crew could bolster security forces when boarded by the enemy especially the Borg. In the future ships only maintained a skeleton crew with most of the ship operated by holograms.

Their final destination was the space station Deep Space Nine but they had a pit stop on the way to pick up some strangers to this universe first.

Jake Dunn aka Nomad was running Lockhart, he took refuge in one of C.E.L.L.'s former facilities, they were experimenting with tech way beyond their understanding. Lockhart found Nomad, Lockhart was armed with a K-Volt an energy based weapon. Lockhart fired at Nomad who took cover behind a piece of equipment the K-Volt activated it and Nomad found himself on another planet, he would later learn he was roughly 320 plus years in the future and in another universe. He was also not alone.

The members of Red Team Jerome-092, Alice-130, & Douglas-042 serving aboard the UNSC Spirit of Fire a Phoenix-class colony ship was investigating the facilities of the Installation 00, also known as the Ark to see what they could use in their fight against the Banished. A lot of the equipment in this particular piece of paradise was damaged, they were with a Huragok better known as an Engineer nicknamed Sparky they had no clue what it's real name was. It was trying to fix the damage, a perfect shit storm happened, between the damage, short circuiting equipment, and an electrical storm the four of them were transported to another planet, they would later learn they were roughly 160 plus years in the past and in another universe. They were also not alone.

Their weapons did not come with them, their armor did. Before they could begin to figure out what happened an away team from the Cerberus teleported down. The captain introduced herself. "I am Captain Morningstar. Based on our sensor readings I take it you are not supposed to be here. I would like to offer my ship's services in helping you get back to your home. Until such a time that you may return home you are guests aboard my ship if you are willing. Shall we?" Jerome-092 realized they didn't have much choice and as leader of Red Team accepted. Nomad had a feeling this captain was not telling him everything but based on his current surroundings of a barren wasteland he didn't figure he had much choice. "Good. I'll have quarters prepared for you you can wait in our Ten Forward, it's a lounge where you can relax, eat, drink. One of our holographic crew members will show you around and answer any questions if it can." They were all teleported up to the ship.
