Leviathan Part Two

Writing by Laurie S. Sutton
Artist Jesus Redondo

While helping their new allies, The Elessians, in a rescue effort, Voyager herself became entrapped in the same predicament as those she tried to help.

Captain Janeway, leading an away team of Lts. Torres and Paris and Ensign Kim, made contact with the artificial intelligence in control of the massive ship that Janeway had dubbed "Leviathan".

The Leviathan was a ship dedicated to studying all life forms by creating controlled envionmental habitats amidst its immense hull. Realizing that they could not reason with the ship, which called itself "AI," Janeway decided on a desperate course of action. Using a modified probe on remote control, Janeway and her crew were able to free themselves and the Elessians.

However, Leviathan/AI experienced massive system failures and the crew had to reinitialize the computers; if they did not, the other habitats would have cease to function and all the previously captured life forms would have perished. During the reboot AI's origins where revealed as the next step in the evolution of life from the machine planet where the V'Ger probe came from.Thankful for Voyager's assistance, Captain Janeway was invited aboard the Elessian flagship to take part in a ceremony that would make her a Battle Sister.
