Title: Kansas 2 - The Yellow Brick Road
Author: Soledad

Rating: 14+, in general
Genre: Action-adventure
Series: B5/ST-Voyager crossovers

Disclaimer: Babylon 5 belongs to JMS and Time Warner. Star Trek - Voyager belongs to Gene Roddenberry and whoever else keeps the rights at the moment. I’m just borrowing their characters to have a little fun. No harm intended and (alas!) no money made.

Timeline: Late Season 3 for B5 (before“And the Rock Cried Out No Hiding Place" to "Z'Ha'Dum”), early Season 4 for Voyager, but Kes is still on board and has not evolved into an elated being

Summary: Voyager discovers another wormhole/anomaly. Instruments state that it leads to the Epsilon Eridani system in the Alpha Quadrant. Everyone is happy, as this would mean they might end up somewhere near Vulcan. However, the anomaly leads to a different universe, and they end up right in front of B5. While they are waiting for the anomaly to reappear, they get involved in the life of the station.

A SHORT FOREWORD

This story is the direct continuation of my very first Babylon 5 fanfic, the one titled “Still Not in Kansas”. You really should read that one first, or many things in this one won’t make much sense.

This has become an independent story for the simple reason that I didn’t want “Kansas” to go on indefinitely. So I ended it where it became a strong possibility that Draal and the Great Machine would be able to help the Voyager people to get back to their own universe. The sequel will show how it would happen - if it would happen at all.

In most of my fandoms (save one) I write crossovers and AUs. This story is no exception. As I like both Babylon 5 and Star Trek, I tried to stay as close as canon as possible. Mistakes can always happen, of course, despite the ungodly amount of research I’ve done. Also, since this is an AU, some things are different. But only those that were necessary for this story to work.

As for “Kansas”, I only changed one important factor from “Grey 17 Is Missing” - I skipped the silly B-story with the fanatic cultists and the Zarg and replaced them with a secret Nightwatch group in hiding, which had been taken out in the penultimate chapter. Well, more or less. We’ll see.

“The Yellow Brick Road” is, of course, another ‘The Wizard of Oz” reference. It seemed somehow fitting, despite of its silliness as a story title.

And now on with the fun!
