Atrapados trescientos años en el pasado, Sisko, Bashir y Dax se deben enfrentar a una de las horas más oscuras de la historia de la Tierra...

{{TraducciónNecesariaSección|Past Tense, Part I}}
===Prólogo:===
:''Commander's log, stardate 48481.2. My senior staff and I have been asked to address the [[Annual Starfleet Symposium]] on the current situation in the Gamma Quadrant. I'm looking forward to the opportunity, and to visiting my [[Judith Sisko|sister]] in [[Portland]].''

As the [[USS Defiant|''Defiant'']] enters [[orbit]] around [[Earth]], [[Commander]] [[Benjamin Sisko|Sisko]] remarks that he will never be tired of seeing the view of Earth from the atmosphere. However, [[Lieutenant]] [[Jadzia Dax|Dax]] thinks the seas could use more purple, while [[Major]] [[Kira Nerys|Kira]] thinks they are not green enough. Smiling, [[Doctor]] [[Julian Bashir|Bashir]] observes that there is no place like home &mdash; no matter what color the seas are. Dax reminds Sisko that they are scheduled to have dinner with [[Admiral]] [[Drazman]], and as Sisko rolls his eyes, O'Brien recognizes the [[commanding officer]] of the [[Proxima Maintenance Yards]] and does not relish the thought an evening with "Droner" Drazman. Hopefully, Bashir reminds O'Brien that the entire senior staff was invited to the dinner, but O'Brien says such formalities are the reason he chose to be an [[enlisted officer]]. Dax obviously shares Bashir's sentiment as she invites Kira and [[Constable]] [[Odo]] to come along, but Kira politely declines and Odo calls the dinner "strictly a [[Starfleet]] occasion" with a hint of amusement.

An emergency [[subspace]] signal arrives from [[Deep Space 9]], but when Sisko opens the channel, [[Quark]] appears on the [[viewscreen]]. Quark ignores Kira as she impatiently reminds him the channel he is on is for ''emergency'' use. He informs Sisko that [[Grand Nagus]] [[Zek]] has instructed him to remind Sisko of the critical role the Nagus played in establishing contact with the [[Dominion]]. Odo rolls his eyes, although Sisko politely informs Quark that he will mention the Nagus ''prominently'' in his report to [[Starfleet Security]]. Quark reluctantly adds that there is another reason he contacted the commander, which doesn't surprise Sisko. The Nagus's nephew, [[Belongo]], has been detained by the authorities on [[Aldebaron III]] &mdash; a slight misunderstanding, of course. Sisko admits that he owes the Nagus a favor and Quark begins to quote [[Ferengi Rules of Acquisition|Rule of Acqusition]] #111 but Sisko beats him to the punch: "Treat people in your debt like family. Exploit them." Quark seems unsure of himself as Sisko explains that he has been reading up on the Rules. While Sisko assures Quark that he will do whatever he can for the Nagus's nephew, he reminds Quark of Rule #271. "You can't free a fish from water," Quark quotes with a sly grin, visibly amused as he promises to relay the message to Zek.

In the [[transporter room]], Sisko, Dax and Bashir step onto the transporter pad as Kira and [[Chief]] [[Miles O'Brien|O'Brien]] wish them well. Sisko informs Kira that she is in command of the ship and tells O'Brien to energize the transporter. The three officers disappear in the usual flash of blue light, but an alert comes from the computer and O'Brien notices something strange. Kira asks what is wrong and he reassures her that it is only a minor problem with the [[annular confinement beam]]. However, he is dumbstruck when a chart appears on the screen indicating that Sisko and the others never materialized at their destination.

Sisko and Bashir lie unconscious on the pavement as they are rudely awakened by a pair of tan-uniformed men carrying [[shotgun]]s. Confused, Sisko asks who the men are, a question the older man finds humorous. Bashir and Sisko rise to their feet, disoriented, as the younger man reminds his companion that they have been working all night. He suggests that they forget about the strangers, as he's exhausted and eager to return home to see his wife [[Sonya Calvera|Sonya]] and their children. The older man calls the younger one an anarchist and reminds him that there is a law against sleeping in the streets, although he notes with amusement Bashir and Sisko's matching "pajamas." Asking them for some form of identification such as a [[UAC card]], the older man is dismayed to hear Bashir ask what happened to [[Starfleet Headquarters]], calling them both "[[dim]]s." Sisko slowly begins to realize where they are as he observes something very familiar about the guards' shotguns and uniforms. The older man suggests it may be from the last time Sisko was in a [[Sanctuary District]]; Sisko recognizes the term immediately and looks alarmed. He asks what year it is. The younger man impatiently tells him it is [[2024]], and as the guards escort Sisko and Bashir off screen, Dax can be seen nearby, unconscious and sitting in the entrance to a [[Wikipedia:Subway|subway]].

===Acto Uno:===
A man in his mid-30s exits the subway, but stops as he does so, noticing Dax in his peripheral vision. When he wakes her, she has a headache and explains that she must have hit her head on something. He asks if she was jacked, a slang term for robbed with which Dax is unfamiliar. She goes along with what he says when he asks whether the assailants took her [[credit chip]]s and ID, claiming they took everything but her brooch (her [[communicator]], which she is still wearing). However, since she is still unsure of where she is, she simply tells the man that she was traveling with some friends and got separated. Introducing himself as [[Chris Brynner]], the man offers to let Dax use the [[computer|interface terminal]] at his office to order replacement ID. When he hears Dax's name is Jadzia, Chris observes how beautiful her name is and asks if it is [[Netherlands|Dutch]]. "Something like that," Dax responds with a smile. She thanks him for helping her, but he claims he doesn't get to rescue a damsel in distress every day. He helps Jadzia to her feet and leads her to a nearby office building.

Meanwhile, O'Brien tells one of his [[engineer]]s to check the [[Heisenberg compensator]]s and begins a level-one [[diagnostic]] of the [[transporter buffer]]s. Kira comes up behind him with news from Starfleet, but nothing good: None of the crewmembers rematerialized in [[San Francisco]], nor have there been signs that they rematerialized elsewhere. According to Starfleet [[sensors]], the transporter signal disappeared as soon as the beam-out began, but O'Brien informs her that the ''Defiant''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s system log clearly shows they rematerialized ''somewhere''. While this is good news, he does not know where that somewhere is. He reviews the log as they speak and concludes that the answer must not be in the log since the only unusual sign was the variance in the annular confinement beam, which he corrected. He tells her the variance was caused by [[chroniton]] particles,which are emitted by the [[cloaking device]] and sometimes become lodged in the [[ablative armor]] matrix. Suddenly, he notes a surge in [[temporal energy]] just before the beam-out began. O'Brien believes they have found their first clue, although he's not sure what it means.

The guards lead Bashir and Sisko to the main entrance to [[Sanctuary District A]], where an overcrowded apartment-style building lies behind a large cement wall. As the older man, [[Vin]], fills out some type of registration form, his partner [[Bernardo Calvera|Bernardo]] keeps an eye on them. Bashir and Sisko both saw the [[Golden Gate Bridge]] on the way to the sanctuary, so they know they are at least in San Francisco, but Bashir wonders what happened to their comm badges. With a hint of frustration, Sisko informs him that the communicators were probably stolen, as the [[Earth]] to which he and Bashir have become accustomed is at least a century away. They decide to try to find Dax when they get a chance, as she is probably nearby. "And then what?" Bashir asks with a degree of apathy. "And then," responds Sisko reassuringly, "we find our way home." Vin finishes filling out the paperwork and tells them it is time to go. As he and Bernardo enter the sanctuary behind them, Bernardo insists that Sonya will kill him for being so late.

Inside the wall, apartment buildings similar to the one they observed earlier line the streets and there are people everywhere. Sisko explains that the place is a Sanctuary District, but Bashir concedes that [[21st century]] history is not one of his strong points, as it is too depressing. While Sisko admits that the citizens of [[Earth]] made some ugly mistakes, he says they also paved the way for many things he and the doctor take for granted. The Sanctuary Districts are one of the worst mistakes; as he explains the situation, the camera shows that trash is everywhere and dirty people fill the streets, with an older couple sitting in a [[tent]] and a family of three literally living in a cardboard box. By the early [[2020]]s, Sisko says that there was a Sanctuary District like this one in every major city throughout the [[United States]], but Bashir fails to understand the purpose and asks what the people did to deserve such treatment. Sisko tells him that people with criminal records are not allowed in the sanctuaries and those who live here are simply people without jobs or places to live. Vin instructs Bashir and Sisko to stop and tells Bernardo to go home to his wife and kids, out of both compassion for his partner and visible annoyance at the ramblings of the two new arrivals. Bernardo thanks Vin and takes off. Gesturing forward, Vin sarcastically asks Bashir and Sisko, "Shall we?"

===Acto Dos:===
Dax sits at a desk in a high-class apartment with a paneled, wall-sized window that shows a view of San Francisco's various skyscrapers. She uses a pen-shaped device to access a [[computer]] about the size of a small television with the monitor tilted at a forty-five degree angle so as to serve as both a screen and a touch pad. There is a knock at the door and Chris Brynner enters, sitting on the desk casually and asking if she was able to order a new ID. While it took her a while to convince the computer of her identity, she tells him that she was able to order some credit chips and a [[transit pass]]. Removing a [[credit chip]] from the computer and hands it to Chris as she thanks him sincerely for letting her use his terminal and his account. He studies her for a moment and observes her spots, noting that they are very unusual, so Dax pretends that they are [[tattoo]]s.  Brynner guesses that she had them done in [[Japan]] and tells of how he used to have a [[Maori]] tribal pattern running along his arm but had to remove it to look like the rest of the "drones." When Dax asks what kind of business Brynner works in, he seems surprised and walks toward the window as he announces sarcastically that he will have to have a talk with his [[Wikipedia:Public relations|public relations]] people. He is Chris Brynner of [[Brynner Information Systems]], which provides things like [[Internet]] access and [[Channel 90]]. ''"Oh, ''that'' Chris Brynner!"'' Dax exclaims as she attempts to play dumb. While his status probably makes Chris a sell-out, Dax promises not to hold it against him. He chuckles and asks if there is a way for her to get a hold of her friends. She wishes there were.

Meanwhile, Bashir and Sisko are inside a large, blandly decorated administration building within the Sanctuary District, with two guards standing watch outside the entrance as homeless people walk by. In a waiting room, Sisko steps onto a spot marked with two footprints and is instructed to place each of his hands on a scanning device and look straight ahead as the machine takes a [[photograph]] of him. The three of them walk over to a nearby counter, where Vin accesses a computer via a pen-liked device similar to that which Dax used. Bashir and Sisko exchange looks as a computerized female voice welcomes Vin to the [[SafeTech]] fingerprint [[database]]. It informs him that his government discount has been accepted and advertises its [[retinal scan]] service on [[channel 178]], but when the computer processes the fingerprints provided, it is unable to identify either of the new arrivals. Confused, Vin observes that it is as if Bashir and Sisko do not exist. ''"Well, since we don't exist, why not let us go?"'' Bashir asks. As the two of them have no IDs and no [[money]] and are dressed like clowns, Vin seems to think the matter is self-explanatory and tells Bashir to figure it out for himself. His voice turns polite as he hands Bashir and Sisko a pair of clipboards with various forms and asks them to fill out the paperwork the best of their ability and reminds them that interpreters are available if they do not speak [[English language|English]] and that the questions can be given verbally if they are unable to read. "Now sit down, shut up, fill out the forms, and if you've got any problems, don't come to me with them," he adds. Bashir thanks Vin sarcastically.

Now sitting in the [[captain's chair]], Kira cordially asks an [[ensign]] to express her gratitude to [[Admiral]] [[Ngomo]] but that she does not want anyone to transport aboard the ''Defiant'' until the current situation is resolved. O'Brien enters the [[bridge]] as she adds that the admiral is welcome to come aboard via [[shuttlecraft]]. O'Brien informs her that the temporal surge they detected earlier was caused by an explosion in a microscopic [[singularity]] passing through the [[Sol system|solar system]] at the time of the beam-out. As usual, his [[technobabble]] is lost on the Major, but he explains that the transporter signal was redirected through [[time]], which makes the question not ''where'' Dax, Bashir and Sisko are but rather ''when''. While he is sure that the officers arrived in San Francisco, they were deflected into another time period, most likely centuries away.

A man sitting next to Sisko in the waiting room appears largely oblivious to his surroundings as he attempts to draw on Sisko's leg with a pen. When Sisko stops him, he looks at Sisko indignantly and begins to draw on the person next to him. Bashir stands on the opposite side of the room complaining to Vin, who stands idly by and appears unconcerned. The line has barely moved in the past three hours, a situation Vin sums up as "plenty of overtime." Despite Bashir's legitimate concerns, Vin simply tells him to return to his seat, rolling his eyes as Bashir does so. The woman next to Sisko's neighbor seems pleasantly entertained as he draws on her hand, and it is obvious that neither of them is entirely coherent. Sisko seems deep in thought, staring at a digital display of the date and time on a nearby wall as Bashir rejoins him. Frustrated, Bashir observes that numerous people around them are mentally ill and require [[Psychiatry|medical treatment]], but Sisko, whose eyes are still on the clock, tells him they will not get any such treatment. Noticing with confusion Sisko's pensive look, Bashir asks what is wrong. Sisko points out that the date is [[August|August 30]], [[2024]], and asks if Bashir has heard of the [[Bell Riots]]. The doctor is only vaguely familiar with the events, so Sisko explains that it was one of the most violent civil disturbances in American history, and it occurred in San Francisco's Sanctuary District A during the first week of [[September]], 2024. Unless they can find a way out of the Sanctuary District soon, they are about to be caught right in the middle of the violence.

===Acto Tres:===
Sisko describes how the Sanctuary residents will take over the district and take several guards hostage, only to have the government send troops in to restore order, killing hundreds of residents in the process. Bashir notes that, while Starfleet's [[temporal displacement policy]] sounds good in theory, it will not be easy to stand by and watch hundreds of people die. However, Sisko assures him that the riots will alter the course of history thanks to [[Gabriel Bell]], the man for whom the riots were named. When the government troops stormed the compound based on rumors that the hostages were dead, they found none of the hostages had been harmed thanks to Bell, who sacrificed his own life to save them. Public opinion subsequently turned against the notion of sanctuary districts, and the planet began to address its social problems; therefore, if they warn any of the people of what is going to happen, they risk altering a pivotal moment in history. Vin interrupts them to inform them that it is their turn to be processed.

In a cubicle in another part of the building, Bashir and Sisko wait patiently while a social worker reviews their forms. Vin can be seen in the background, although it is not clear if he has been assigned to them or is simply keeping a close watch. The social worker seems surprised by their registration forms when she looks them over, and after a few moments, Sisko asks if something is wrong. She says the forms indicate they are [[dim]]s, claiming they are instead [[gimmie]]s, and apologizes for not processing the forms quicker. As Sisko and Bashir are unfamiliar with the slang terms, the social worker, [[Lee (official)|Lee]], explains that gimmes are ordinary people in need of a job and a place to stay. A confused Bashir asks about the dims and Lee tells him that the dims should be in [[hospital]]s, but since the [[government and politics|government]] is unable to afford treatment for them, they are sent to the Sanctuary District. Although Lee expresses her hatred of the process, she seems to think it will not change and moves on, asking if they have applied for any jobs. Bashir tells her they do not plan to stay in San Francisco for long, and Sisko claims they were traveling with a friend. When Lee hears that they have no way to contact their friend, she somewhat hesitantly informs them that they will have to stay in the Sanctuary District for now. Initially using the official reason &mdash; that it is for their own good &mdash; she adds that it is also the law. Sisko incredulously wonders how they are supposed to find jobs if they are stuck in the district. The district does provide a job placement service; however, due to the state of the economy, Lee is unable to give them an estimate of how long it will take to find one. The only thing she can do is tell them to be patient as she hands them each a [[ration card]], which they can use to get food and water while in the district. Hypothetically, the buildings in the district are for everyone, so she tells them they are on their own as far as accommodations go. Before they leave, Lee advises them to stay away from [[District Security]], as the guards are overworked and underpaid, and to watch out for [[Ghost (slang)|ghosts]], the name for those who "haven't integrated well" in the district and tend to prey on other residents. Sisko thanks her for the advice as he and Bashir leave the cubicle.

Dax stands alone in Brynner's apartment, still wearing her [[Starfleet uniform]] and [[communicator]], and taps the communicator as she attempts to contact with Bashir or Sisko. However, she attempts to act casual when Brynner enters to announce that his assistant [[Brit]] has reserved Dax a room at [[The Clift]] for the next five nights. It is clear that Chris has feelings for Jadzia but does not want to seem too forward as he acknowledges that he wants to help her and asks what her plans are. She still needs to find her friends, and Brynner admits that his assistant checked with the City [[hospital]]s and trauma wards already. Unfortunately, no one matching Bashir or Sisko's description was admitted recently; however, he wants to know how the search turns out. Dax smiles as he uses the point to bring up a party he is having the next day and invites her and her friends. She accepts the offer and he wishes her good luck as he escorts her to the door.

It is night in the sanctuary district and some of the less fortunate residents use metal barrels as impromptu fireplaces in order to keep warm. Bashir and Sisko attempt to enter a nearby building, but a man about their age stops them. "Let me guess: This building's full," Bashir says, frustrated. The man apologizes insincerely and Bashir and Sisko walk away. Bashir finds it hard to believe that ''every'' building is full, but Sisko wouldn't be surprised if they were. At one point, nobody cared how many people were in the sanctuaries so long as they were out of sight. Bashir finds it difficult to comprehend as they pass by a [[Wikipedia:Schizophrenia|schizophrenic]] man, pointing out that there are numerous treatments for the disease, which could help him live out a normal life even in the 2020 &mdash; if anyone gave a damn. However, the problem is not that they don't give a damn, but that the social problems facing the planet seem too enormous to cure, something Bashir finds more depressing than aggravating. While he acknowledges that it is horrible to cause people to suffer out of hatred toward them, he can't understand the notion of doing so simply because one has forgotten how to care. Sisko reassures him that people in the 21st century will slowly but surely fix the problems they face. As they walk, Bashir begins to wonder if [[Human]]s are truly any different from [[Romulan]]s or [[Cardassian]]s, if, in the event that something disastrous happened to the [[Federation]], they would truly stick to their ideals. Sisko states matter-of-factly that it is his duty to ensure that they never have to find out.

They come to a halt when they see a group of ghosts beating a man in front of a nearby building; while Bashir immediately moves to intervene, Sisko reminds him that they can't interfere. The [[Biddle Coleridge|leader]] tells the other ghosts to get the man's ration card, but seeing Bashir's restrained look, he confrontationally asks if there is a problem. Sisko speaks for Bashir and reassures the ghost that there isn't. However, the ghost takes the opportunity to have some as he observes that Bashir seems upset and sarcastically claims they don't want to offend anyone. When Sisko informs him that he and Sisko are new to the district, the ghost takes off his hat and gives them a fake welcome. As neither Sisko nor Bashir is amused, he claims gimmies have no sense of fun. Sisko tells him they are only looking for a place to stay, which seems to dampen the ghost's mood as he comes closer and speaks in a serious tone. "In that case, you better look somewhere else, ''new boy''," the ghost warns Sisko. He lightly wishes them a good day and waves goodbye as they move on to the next building.

===Acto Cuatro:===

The next day, Bashir lies sleeping near the entrance to one of the buildings. Sisko wakes him, bringing a bowl with [[scrambled eggs]] and a piece of bread. Bashir promises never to complain about [[Deep Space 9]]'s [[Cardassian]] beds again. Sisko apologizes for the fact that the distribution point ran out of both utensils and napkins, which doesn't surprise Bashir. After they eat, they visit the building where they were turned away previously and find the same group of men guarding it. They ask to see the roof and reassure the men that they do not plan to cause trouble. While the leader (the same one who turned them away earlier) empathizes, he and the other residents feel that they have to protect what is theirs. Sisko asks if they could trade anything to access to the roof, but as neither he nor Bashir has anything of value, they are out of luck. The leader again suggests they try another building. One of the other men whispers in the leaders ear as Bashir and Sisko begin to walk off, and the leader hesitantly informs Sisko that they may be able to make a deal after all.

The setting is now a dirty, dimly lit corridor where several residents sleep on the floor. A pair of residents emerge from a nearby stairwell, and as they come closer to the camera, it becomes clear that they are Bashir and Sisko, dressed in the other men's clothes. Trying to make the best of a bad situation, Sisko observes that they at least look like they belong in the district; Bashir adds that they smell like it too. They turn a corner to climb the next flight of stairs and find [[Michael Webb]] tending to his injured son, [[Danny Webb|Danny]]. Webb's back is turned to them, they attempt to keep their distance and approach the next stairwell quietly. However, he hears them and turns around, wielding a knife defensively. Sisko puts his hands up and reassuringly asks Webb to put the knife down. When he tells Webb that they want to survey the district from the roof, Web assures them it will not look any better from there. Danny calls for his father in a horse voice, obviously in pain. Although Webb keeps the knife pointed at the other men as he kneels beside his son, he can tell they mean him no harm. His disposition goes from defensive to nurturing as he puts the knife down and explains that his son was beaten by a group of ghosts near the processing center. Bashir offers to examine Danny's wounds, and while Sisko warns him about interfering, he believes a look will not harm anything. Fortunately, Danny suffered only superficial wounds. Webb goes upstairs to retrieve a clean rag and [[alcohol]] to nurse Danny's wounds, and Sisko observes that they have made a new friend.

Webb follows Bashir and Sisko out of the building, apparently impressed by Bashir's medical knowledge. He tells Bashir that the district needs another [[doctor]], but Bashir claims not to practice any more. Insisting that the residents must pull together, Webb reassures them that they will not escape the district any time soon. He believes the district residents need to organize themselves and show the outside world what has happened in the district. As they cannot interfere, Bashir and Sisko respectfully decline and claim they simply want to be left alone. Webb sees their apparent apathy and remarks, "My mistake. I thought you two wanted to get out of here." Bashir and Sisko exchange looks.

Meanwhile, Dax and Brynner are a high-class party, complete with waiter. She, Chris, and two of his acquaintances discuss recent events, such as Brynner's recent [[skiing]] trip to [[Christchurch]] and how [[Europe]] has fallen into political anarchy. When Dax implies that the same political situation might arise in the [[United States]], Chris's friends seem indignant. Chris apologizes on her behalf and explains how Jadzia was mugged, claiming such an experience would leave anyone with a negative outlook on the future. He adds that whoever mugged her took everything, even her ID, and Chris's other friend claims Dax is lucky the [[police]] did not find her first, as she might have ended up in a Sanctuary District. Dax immediately pulls Chris aside and he confirms that it is public policy to put those found on the streets without ID in sanctuaries. She is sure that must be what happened to Sisko and Bashir, but while Chris observes that sanctuary records "aren't posted on the 'net," he believes he can gain access to them.

That night, Bashir and Sisko stand in front of a lighted barrel and attempt to keep warm while they wait to get their food. Bashir observes that the wait is worse than the line at the [[Replimat]], adding that they will probably get their dinner just in time for breakfast Sisko decides to check on the food line. While he is gone, the ghost from before, [[Biddle Coleridge|BC]], approaches Bashir and asks to see Bashir's food card. A confrontation is imminent as Sisko returns. He warns BC to leave Bashir alone, and BC and the other ghosts gang up on the two of them. During the ensuing fight, another man intervenes in an attempt to stop BC. He manages to get the ghosts off of Sisko, but when he leans over Sisko to see if Sisko is okay, one of the ghosts stabs him. The man loses consciousness and the ghosts take his food card. They run off as an alarm sounds and two guards run toward them. Taking the man's ID, Sisko and Bashir do likewise, hiding under a pile of garbage in a nearby alley as the guards run past them. However, once the situation has calmed down, Sisko reveals that the man who just died was [[Gabriel Bell]].

===Acto Cinco:===

On the Defiant, The Major enters the [[bridge]] and asks O'Brien if He is ready to go. O'Brien replys, saying that Starfleet has denied them permission, but he is unable to raise them. Odo then enters, as he had just been cut off from Starfleet Security. O'Brien confirms that the Defiant's Com System is in perfect working order, but starfleet has been erased from the timeline.

Sisko and Bashir return to Mr. Webb and announce that they want to join the rebellion. Webb tells Sisko and Bashir about the upcoming rally for public attention, and asks them to spread the word. Sisko agrees to pass the news, and he and Bashir begin spreading it around. All of a sudden, a riot breaks out. The people living in the District take the Processors hostage. Just as Biddle is about to begin injuring them, Sisko steps up and announces his name, Gabriel Bell.
