"Admiral, the Enterprise is docked now," came the voice over the intercom. Admiral Huppel felt a little on edge as he thumbed the button.
"Very well," he snapped, "have all logs ready to view on holodeck 5. I'll be there with my staff in ten minutes."
He couldn't imagine seeing the fate of the Enterprise after all these years. It was a little known fact that the ship along with her crew was actually lost. And until now, Star fleet had managed to cover it up for three hundred years. Then the derelict star ship was found in deep space, and it seemed that the intricate hoax would crumble.
Hupple took a minute to compose his tangled nerves and brush down his dress uniform before stepping into the corridor.
"Commander Cathcart, are you ready with the logs?" asked the Admiral. Hupple stood as he heard the affirmative from Cathcart. "My fellow officers," he started, " What you are about to see should never leave this room. After the viewing, the fate of the starship will be decided. Please, commander, start the playback."
He took his seat as the room's grid faded, and the bridge of the starship materialized.

"During routine maintenance, plasma was accidentally jettisoned into space. Unfortunately, A comet struck the plasma near the ship, and the resulting cloud infiltrated all decks of this ship.
"Our medical team is looking into the bodily effects of said vapor now."

"It seems that the cloud is reacting with all on board the Enterprise causing strange skin rashes. Unfortunately no two rashes are the same making diagnosis and treatment difficult. Dr. McCoy and his staff are working non-stop to get a cure. Also there is a large red spaceship at the edge of our sensors. It seems to be hanging there, waiting for something."

"This is likely to be my last entry. The entire ship's crew is turning into fruit. McCoy has turned into a giant apple. Sulu has become a pineapple. I can't tell what Spock is, but it's Vulcan, and looks like a cumquat."
"Scotty has turned into haggis, but we don't know why. Uhura has turned into a peach, and Chekov has become some kind of unidentifiable goo."
"My rash has progressed, and It wont be long before my mutation is complete. My skin is thick and yellow now. I'm guessing banana. What's worse is that big red ship is getting closer and broadcasting music into our com system. "
As the View of the yellowing captain and his fellow fruits dissolved into the familiar grid lines of the holodeck, Cathcart made an ominous statement. "My fellow officers, the logs stop here. However, we do have one final video to show you. I f you have a weak stomach, you may want to avert your eyes."
Once again the bridge of the Enterprise appeared. Her crew was still there , rolling around and trying vainly to work the controls, with her captain turning brown. Then, the music started. Softly at first , then swelling as four men materialized . They seemed to be wearing starfleet uniforms, that had no rank. Infusing the crew with a new terror, a new song blared over the ships com. The four strangers quickly put on bibs and started dancing around with knives, forks, and large mixing bowls. All the while, the song played on....
"Fruit salad! Yummy Yummy!"
