Stardate: 49447 Voyager encounters the debris field of a destroyed ship. Evidence points to a Cardassian drone, a weapon of mass destruction, that was taken over by Torres to work for the Maquis and destroy a Cardassian fuel depot while she was still in the Alpha Quadrant. Somehow, the drone has been tossed into the Delta Quadrant where, now working with a faulty computer system, it has resumed its search for the Cardassian target that is now over 70,000 light years away.
While chasing a renegade Maquis ship in the Badlands, the USS Voyager and the Maquis ship they are chasing are pulled into a vortex, which sends them instantly to the Delta Quadrant. However, after the destruction of the device that transported them to the Delta Quadrant, the crew of Voyager and the crew of the Maquis ship must join together to fight their way back to their home in the Alpha quadrant, which is many years away. They will meet many foes and many obstacles along the way, but they will also bond as a crew, between those of the Maquis and those of Starfleet.
