Summary

Five-year-old Annika Hansen is visited by a woman from the future who calls herself "Seven".

This story is contradicted in some particulars by the VOY episode: "Dark Frontier", which aired between its selection as a Strange New Worlds contest winner, and the publication of the book. However, the story does posit that Seven has visited a parallel timeline, rather than her own.
