Excerpt

“Intruder alert! Security to Transporter Room Three!”

Data was too stunned to get a word out before two guards appeared, phasers trained on him. With the guards flanking him, O’Brien stalked forward. “Who are you?” he demanded. “What have you done with Commander Data?”

“I am Commander Data,” Data said evenly.

Captain Picard stared, then flared, “Where is Data?”

“Captain, I am Data,” he tried again. “I can explain. It was the Elysians. They put me through their tests, and because I aided one of their people, they granted me my fondest wish—they have made me human.”

“Good God!” whispered Riker. “Is it true?”
