Pun-ishment 28
by Rob Morris

USS ENTERPRISE-D

Riker continued his tale.

"So this apple-stealing constable declares the control device a 'gentleman's
cane' --and evidence."

Worf nodded.

"Of course said evidence would be kept in his house, for his use."

Data raised a concern.

"Commander Riker, it seems probable that Mister Clemens based his last novel,
about a future time traveller, on me. Yet I know that this story existed before
my journey. Could history now have two distinct Samuel Clemens?"

"Well, Data, I wouldn't worry. If that is the case, then they each occupy
separate realities, so never the Twains shall meet." 
"Destiny is no guarantee of survival" - Aaron Sisko, facing the battle of Wolf
359 against King Ghidorah, Ancient Destroyer
