Eighteen years into the Occupation, a new star rises in Bajor's sky. It is the seat of power in this system, a place of slave labor and harsh summary judgments, the symbol of Cardassian might and the futility of resisting it. But even as the gray metal crown of Terok Nor ascends to its zenith, ragtag pockets of Bajoran rebels -- including a fierce young fighter named Kira Nerys -- have begun to strike back at their world's oppressors, and they intend to show the Cardassians that the night belongs to them.

Jill holte tief Luft, drückte das Tor auf und zuckte beim Kreischen der rostigen Scharniere zusammen. Ein rascher Blick verriet ihr, dass der kleine, umzäunte Hof leer war. Erleichtert senkte sie die Waffe und schloss das Tor sorgfältig, bevor sie auf das massive Holzportal des RPD-Gebäudes zuging. Viele Polizisten waren draußen ums Leben gekommen, was Jill erleichterte, auch wenn es schrecklich klang: Sie würde nicht mit zu vielen Infizierten kämpfen müssen, sobald sie drinnen war. Plötzlich schwang das Tor quietschend auf. Jill drehte sich um und drückte fast ab, als eine Gestalt in den Hof stürzte – bis sie erkannte, dass es Brad war. Er taumelte in ihre Richtung, schwer verletzt und mit Blut, das zwischen seinen Fingern hervorsprudelte. Keuchend streckte er seine freie Hand nach ihr aus, sein Gesicht zeigte namenloses Grauen. 'Du ... Jill!' Sie trat näher, fixiert auf ihn, und bemerkte nicht, was geschah, als er plötzlich verschwand. Eine Wand aus Schwärze erhob sich zwischen ihnen, begleitet von einem tiefen, zornigen Grollen. Der Boden erbebte unter mächtigen Schritten. 'Sstaarrss', artikulierte das Wesen, und Jill wusste, was es war, ohne sein Gesicht zu sehen – sie kannte es, wie ihre eigenen Träume.
