Do Not Close Your Eyes (Star Trek: Myriad Universes)

James Kirk was unable to stop the assassination of Federation President Ra-ghoratreii at the Khitomer Conference, which led to war between the Federation and the Klingon Empire. Seventy years later, the Klingons control most of Federation territory, including Earth.
In the ruins of San Francisco, Resistance members Wesley Crusher and Natasha Yar are attacked by Drex and his squad while bringing a communique to their commander. However, other Resistance members, led by Jean-Luc Picard kill them, though Wesley is injured. Picard then leads them back to their base.
Out in space, a small starship crewed by Will Riker and Geordi La Forge, is pursued by a Klingon bird-of-prey. They are about to self-destruct rather than be captured, when the bird-of-prey is destroyed by a mysterious ship, which they believe is captained by The Silver Ghost, the last remaining captain from Starfleet. Now safe, their passenger, revealed to be Data, tells Riker to cancel the self-destruct.
On Earth, Picard tells the story of the Silver Ghost (yet again) to his nephew, Rene, before putting him to bed. Picard then remembers how he was forced to take Rene and leave his brother and sister-in-law to be killed. He is pulled out of this by his lover, Guinan and tells her that he is worried about his nephew, and that he knows what is wrong with the timeline.
On the Klingon occupation flagship, the Terran Warlord, Worf reacts badly to the news of the destroyed bird-of-prey. Worf suspects the actions of the Silver Ghost, who he has a grudge against for putting out his right eye.
On the Silver Ghost's ship, he talks to his first officer, Rachel Garrett and Tuvok, an ambassador from Vulcan. In his memory of the assassination, a man is seen who should not be there...
