DarkCrusade Dark Crusade Babylon 5 Fan Fiction

The year is 2268, six years after the fall of the Clark regime on Earth.  This is the story of the starship Excalibur, its mission, and its captain, Matthew Gideon--
after history suffered one slight change...

Each "season" below is divided into five episodes each.
Update May 2009:
Read the original OUTLINE document created by Van Plexico for DarkCrusade. This pretty much wraps things up.

   
Gideon

2268:  The Memory of War

"I was too slow once, and Earth paid the price. I will never be too slow again."

   
Galen

2269:  The Long Road

"Humanity now walks the Long Road, and, like it or not, we are obligated to help them find their way."

   
Matheson

2270:  Racing the Night

"You cannot imagine what it is like to sense the sudden, simultaneous, undeniable realization of five billion people, that they're all about to die."

   
Dureena

2271:  War Zone

"I have watched worlds enough and friends enough die already. I have no intention of witnessing any further."

   
Eilerson

2272:  Dark Victory

"The mission I signed on for? This ceased to be the mission I signed on for quite some time ago. Two--or is it three?--formerly inhabited worlds ago, in fact."
