			This story is the very definition of pointless. I'm fairly sure it came out of an attempt to give Vaughn something to do. The "Vamos, Trekkies!" line makes me chuckle, though.

	~~After unwittingly setting off an ancient security system~~, ~~Lieutenant [[Patricia Hawkins]] is targeted for death by an entity determined to use her worst fear to destroy her~~. ~~And~~, ~~believe me, death by clown just isn't pretty.~~		Having not ever really had a transporter malfunction story, Star Traks leaps into the fray with this tale of missing crewmen and temporal displacement. Transporter tricks may be old, but at least this version is short


	==Summary==		==Summary==
	While exploring ruins on the planet [[Guulamia]], Lieutenant [[Patricia Hawkins]] unwittingly activates an ancient security system. This system scans Hawkins, determines her worst fear (clowns), then prepares to destroy her with it. Hawkins returns to the [[USS Secondprize]] before the security entity in the system can strike against her. Not one to give up, the [[Security Entity]], taking the form of a giant clown, attacks the Secondprize in space. [[Jaroch]] comes up with a plan to defeat the clown, which is severely weakened as a result. The Secondprize leaves orbit, and the security entity heads off into space to search for another way to fulfill its programming and destroy Hawkins.


	Two weeks later, the security entity has found what it needs to accomplish its goal. The Secondprize finds itself approached by a small Borg cube. Upon making contact, Captain [[Alexander Rydell]] and the crew discover that these Borg have been altered. In short, they're Borg clowns, and they want Hawkins. Realizing that the Borg will destroy the Secondprize unless she hands herself over to them, Hawkins decides to leave in a shuttle. Commander [[Travis Dillon]] volunteers to go with her. Their shuttle is grabbed in a Borg tractor beam and taken away with the Secondprize in pursuit.


	The Borg take the shuttle to [[Gamma Psi Four]], where they have set up a circus. While the bridge crew tries to observe what is happening, they find themselves pestered by the Secondprize's inventory officer, Lieutenant [[Andrew Baxter]], who is attempting to inventory the bridge. They lock Baxter in the conference room and gas him into unconsciousness. With that dealt with, [[Jaroch]] beams down to assist Hawkins and Dillon. The Borg force Hawkins to participate in an act in their circus, assimilating her to become [[Sunshine Of Borg]] in process. Jaroch realizes that the only way the Borg will release Hawkins is if she dies. He and Dillon allow the act to complete. Sunshine is killed. Dillon races to her side as Jaroch retrieves the shuttle. Using the shuttle, Jaroch smashes the tent, then he and Dillon blast the security entity into oblivion once it appears, satisfied that it has completed its mission. Dr. Aldridge is able to revive and de-Borgify Hawkins.

	This story had a very simple origin. Back before "Star Trek: First Contact" and "Star Trek: Voyager" made the Borg all slimy, they used to go around with very pale, white faces. Throw on a red nose and wig, and poof! Instant clown. The image just made me laugh, so I built a story around it.


	I wrote "Fear Has A Red Nose" during the Summer of 1995 shortly after I met [[Anthony Butler]] while working in the Inventory office at Salisbury State University (now Salisbury University). Since he'd taken an interest in Star Traks, I threw him into the story as the Secondprize's inventory officer. Little did I know that this would lead to [[Star Traks: The Vexed Generation]].

After unwittingly setting off an ancient security system, Lieutenant [[Patricia Hawkins]] is targeted for death by an entity determined to use her worst fear to destroy her. And, believe me, death by clown just isn't pretty.

==Summary==
While exploring ruins on the planet [[Guulamia]], Lieutenant [[Patricia Hawkins]] unwittingly activates an ancient security system. This system scans Hawkins, determines her worst fear (clowns), then prepares to destroy her with it. Hawkins returns to the [[USS Secondprize]] before the security entity in the system can strike against her.

[[Jaroch]] comes up with a plan to defeat the clown, which is severely weakened as a result. The Secondprize leaves orbit, and the security entity heads off into space to search for another way to fulfill its programming and destroy Hawkins.

Two weeks later, the security entity has found what it needs to accomplish its goal. The Secondprize finds itself approached by a small Borg cube. Upon making contact, Captain [[Alexander Rydell]] and the crew discover that these Borg have been altered. In short, they're Borg clowns, and they want Hawkins. Realizing that the Borg will destroy the Secondprize unless she hands herself over to them, Hawkins decides to leave in a shuttle. Commander [[Travis Dillon]] volunteers to go with her.
