LOST IN A GALAXY FAR AWAY
Chapter 1
Space... the Final Frontier; these are the voyages of the Starship Enterprise. Its 5-year mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no man has gone before.
Captain's Log, Stardate 5943.7. While on route to Delta IV carrying a cargo of medical equipment, a massive gravimetric wave knocked the Enterprise out of warp. The following analysis pointed the origin of the disturbance only 1.2 light years from our current position. Since our estimated arrival to Delta IV is well ahead of schedule, I decided an investigation was in order.
Some time later… just after having reached the possible point of origin of where the earlier felt gravimetric wave emanated.
"Anything on the sensors Mr. Spock?" Kirk asked.
Without moving is eyes from the many instruments that crowd his science station Spock replied. "According to the sensors, the source of the event is 100 kilometers ahead, Captain."
"All engines full stop." Kirk ordered. Then after several moments of staring at the viewscreen the captain of the Enterprise voiced. "I'm not seeing anything out there, Mr. Spock."
"None the less, what caused the disturbance is there, Captain. The sensors don't lie."
But before Kirk could answer, a colossal eruption of energy from a now visible tear in space occurred, causing the Federation Starship to rock as hard as leafs do when in the middle of hurricanes, throwing crewman all over the place. Holding hard on his seat so not to fall, Kirk immediately Yelled.
"ALL DECKS ALERT! Deflectors full power. Mr. Sulu, get's the hell out of here, full impulse astern now!"
Also holding hard on the helm station, Hikaru Sulu was trying his best to comply with the captain's orders, but to no avail.
"What's happening, Mr. Sulu, we seem to be closer to that thing not further." Kirk stated.
"Is that thing, is pulling us in. The impulse engines are already at the red line but it's of no use, Captain!"
"Can we go to warp Mr. Sulu?" Kirk asked.
A few seconds later Sulu replied. "Negative Captain, It's impossible to form a stable warp field."
Now the Enterprise's viewscreen was completely filled with the image of the anomaly and getting closer and closer by the second. But in the outside, was where the true size of the anomaly was really shown, completely dwarfing the Federation Starship by comparison.
"Kirk to all decks CONDITION RED. Hold on!"
If an outside observer now could see the current events, had just witness the Federation Starship despite all its efforts disappearing inside the tear in space, sucked as easily as a powerful vacuum cleaner sucks a speck of dust. Now inside the anomaly, the forces to which the Enterprise got subject increased so greatly it seemed that at any second could be ripped to pieces.
Then as fast it got sucked in, somewhere else, the Enterprise got spit out at a speed near the one of the light. Inside the Federation Starship, smoke, small fires, moans, and bodies lying around, were everywhere.
Having pulled himself to his seat, Kirk looked around, and through the viewscreen noticed they were no longer inside the anomaly but back to normal space.
"Kirk to all stations, Report... And stop that damn noise!"
Seconds later the red alert was turned off.
"We are dead stop now, Captain." Sulu reported.
"All decks reporting, Captain." Uhura announced. "Eighteen casualties, three in critical condition, decks four through seven reports several breaches but under control, deck ten and eleven were evacuated, engineering reports a small radiation leak under control and warp engines offline, Mr. Scott says the dilithium crystals need to be realigned. All other decks report green and only minor injuries."
"Thanks Lieutenant. Mr. Spock, what can you tell us?" Kirk inquired his first officer.
"All external sensors are not responsive Captain, certainly due the energies they have undergone. I'm doing a reset as we speak, that should be enough to get the sensors operational again. There… In moments we should began getting data."
"Good, I want to know what happen and where the hell we are." The captain stated.
As minutes painfully passed, the anxiety of all on the bridge increased exponentially. Then shortly after data start coming in.
"Well Mr. Spock what are the news?"
"The news aren't good I'm afraid, Captain." The science officer replied. "I'm not able to establish a correlation between any stars and our charts."
"How can that be possible Mr. Spock? Aren't the sensors working correctly?"
"All sensors are fully operational, Captain. The logical answer must be that we no longer are in the Milky Way."
That sentence hit all in the bridge like a sledgehammer usually hits an anvil... hard, very hard.
Captain's Log, supplemental. Seven hours have passed since we got sucked through a spatial anomaly and arrived on some unknown Galaxy. The anomaly responsible for our predicament also exists in this end, but after several hours of studying it, our science officer came to the conclusion that in this Galaxy, the anomaly isn't as active. So, for to be possible we go home, an artificial infusion of energy on the anomaly will have to be done. Unfortunately, Mr. Spock calculated that not all the antimatter we have aboard will be sufficient for such a task. The Enterprise is now in full readiness. So our search for energy that can get us home begins.
"Where do you suggest that we start our search Mr. Spock?"
I have located a possible habitable system twenty light years from our current position, Captain.
"Do you think that that system will have what we need?"
"From a statistically point is doubtful Captain. But certainly any inhabitants that we encounter may be able to assist us."
"As always, your logic is flawless Mr. Spock." Kirk beamed.
And after raising an eyebrow, Spock stated. "Thank you, Captain. I always try my best."
"Mr. Chekov, plot in a course."
"Aye, Keptin."
"Mr. Sulu, engage warp six when ready. Let's go where no man has gone before."
"Yes Captain, ready and engaging now!"
Several hours later, a yellow planet surrounded by three moons became visible in the Enterprise viewscreen.
"What can you tell us about that planet, Mr. Spock? It doesn't seem be very hospitable."
"Indeed it isn't Captain. Over ninety percent of the planet surface is a barren desert. However I'm detecting plenty of small settlements all over the place, one in particular is quite large when compared with the rest."
"Is there any signs of advanced technology below?"
"Indeed there is, Captain." I'm detecting numerous fusion reactors down there, and as we speak, a massive vessel is orbiting the planet
"Put it in the viewscreen." Kirk commanded, and shortly after a white wedged-shape ship was seen.
"What can you tell me about that vessel?"
"It has 1.6 kilometers in length, appears to be fusion powered by a reactor that seems occupy more than half its internal volume and bristles with armament. A grand total of 135 individual weapons spread through 98 emplacements.
"Great Russia, that Wessel is a monster!" Chekov exclaimed.
"Fusion powered? How in blazes can any fusion reactor power a thing like that?" An astonished Scotty blurb out.
"Unknown Mr. Scott, I'm unable to determine what fuel it uses, but that it is fusion powered is undeniable." Spock reaffirmed the validity of his scans.
"Let's try stay as far from them as possible then. Mr. Sulu put us in a standard orbit but preferably opposed to that thing."
"Yes Captain." The helmsman replied.
Mr. Spock, Doctor, come with me. It's time to meet the locals. Mr. Scott you have the command."
Minutes later at the transporter room.
"Crewman, transport us to the more secluded area you can find, for now is better that our arrival goes as unannounced as possible."
"Yes captain." The crewman replied.
Seconds later, three figures materialized in a dark and dusty alley. Immediately Spock picked up his tricorder and began scanning the surrounding area.
"Fascinating, all the constructions are extremely basic, but advanced technologies are everywhere, as well as an astonishing number of different races." And as Spock finish mentioning those words, a hovering vehicle carrying two short green aliens, passed by them.
"Look at all those different aliens, Jim. Not even on Risa on rush hour you can see such a diversity of beings. This town resembles a lot the flea markets on Cyrilia V"
"Let's hope then it aren't also as dangerous as the Flea Markets of Cyrilia V, Bones." Kirk held.
As the trio walked through the ample and dusty main street, a myriad of suspicious looks fell upon them.
"I guess we aren't passing as inconspicuous as we hoped Jim. Compared with the colorless clothes that everybody uses, our uniforms stand out like a lighthouse in a dark night."
"Yes Bones; we're drawing too much attention to my taste too."
Drawing and then with a wrist movement flipping its communicator cover, Kirk proceed to contact the Enterprise.
"Enterprise here, Captain." Scotty acknowledged.
"Prepare to beam down three cloaks on my command Mr. Scott."
"Cloaks?" Scotty's voice coming from the communicator inquired.
"Yes cloaks, Mr. Scott, as in shrouds, robes, or mantles... of a neutral color preferably."
"Aye, Captain, I'll send them immediately. But don't mind if I ask, are you cold"
"No Mr. Scott we are not cold. We'll tell you the reason later, Kirk out." Kirk signed off with a smirk.
Then as discreetly as possible, the trio headed to a spot devoided of public where the beamed additional garments were dressed. Moments later, now fully blended with the locals, they resumed their recon.
"Now that we are doing an efficient job in mingle, what questions you think we should ask the local inhabitants, Captain?"
"Damn it Spock, we are in a distant Galaxy, seeing things and races no one of our Galaxy ever saw and probably never will. Can't you appreciate the moment for some time before thinking in the mission?"
"Your passion for the unknown is lovable Doctor, but our priority must be returning to our own Galaxy."
"Gentlemen, please! Both have a valid point. I'm certain that while trying to get home, we also can do some exploring, so please stop bickering. Now Mr. Spock, answering your question of what to ask the inhabitants; when in a new place, the best way to know our surroundings is going to the local bar. I'm certain this place must have one too."
"And how should we proceed to locate such establishment Captain?" Spock inquired, Himself having no idea how to accomplish that task.
"It's easy Spock." Kirk then addressed a small blue alien flying several centimeters above the ground. "Hey... Mister, can you tell me where the local bar is?"
At first the being thought about dismiss the annoying human, but the day had been good to him and he was in a good mood so he decided to reply. "You mean Mos Eisley's cantina don't you?"
"That serves too." Kirk stated.
"Go about hundred meters in this direction, turn right, walk a couple more meters and you will see the sign saying cantina on the left. "The blue alien pointed"
"Thanks Mister... much obliged." Kirk then looked to Spock and McCoy. "You see, easy as pie."
After following the blue alien instructions, they reach what looked like the mentioned Mos Eisley's cantina.
"Ok, let's go, and be careful. Bars aren't only a good place to meet the locals and get information but are also a magnet to bad elements and I don't think this galaxy or this cantina, are an exception."
As the trio enters the smoke-filled cantina, the murky, moldy den is filled with a startling array of weird and exotic alien creatures at the long metallic bar. At first the sight is shocking. One-eyed, thousand-eyed, slimy, furry, scaly, tentacled, and clawed creatures huddle over drinks.
"My God Jim, this is, this is... I'm lost at words." A perplexed Doctor mumbled.
"I never thought see the day where words failed you doctor." Spock retorted.
"Is that a joke Spock?" McCoy interjected.
"Hardly Doctor, we Vulcans don't tell jokes." An offended Spock replied.
"But you are half Vulcan and half Human and Humans do tell jokes, isn't it Spock?"
"I assure you Doctor, if I was telling a joke, I would know."
"Sure you would Spock, that I have no doubt." McCoy smiled.
"You guys try to mingle and open your eyes; I'm going to the bar where the action usually is." Kirk Stated.
Having reached the metallic bar, Kirk waited for the right timing to make some small talk. But before he had the chance to do so, a large Creature give him a rough shove saying something so utterly incompressible that not even the universal translator was able to decipher. Not being a man to back down even to a larger foe, without blink Kirk looked the creature in the eyes, but before e could say anything a heavily disfigured human start poking him in the shoulder and said. "He doesn't like you
"Since I do not like him that much either I guess that makes us even" Kirk replied.
Having notice the altercation Spock immediately moved himself to a favorable position.
The disfigured human meanwhile continued provoking Kirk. "I don't like you either."
"And that should bother me because?" Kirk retort.
Don't insult us. You just watch yourself. We're wanted men. I have the death sentence in twelve systems.
"Is that supposed frighten me? At least two Empires would like nothing more than have my head as a trophy. About systems that want me dead, I lost count, and I'm not even going to mention several powerful beings."
Now the disfigured human was really fuming and spited. "I'm going to kill you then!" and then grabbed Kirk's cloak that already pretty pissed punch him in the face throwing him to the floor.
The large creature, immediately draw his blaster, but Kirk already having his type I phaser on his right hand, fired first hitting the arm of the creature cutting it off clean.
Certainly many in the cantina not being able to see the diminutive weapon on Kirk's hand, may have thought the human had fired the beam from his bare hand.
The disfigured human now having got up from the floor, made a feeble attempt to reach his own weapon, but from behind Spock applied him the Vulcan nerve pinch, immediately making him lose his conscience.
"Are you alright Captain?"
"I'm fine Spock, thanks for the assistance."
"My pleasure Captain."
"Christ Jim, what a wonderful idea it was come here." McCoy said sarcastically.
"Relax Bones, all well that ends well."
Meanwhile the music had resumed but many eyes were still on the trio certainly now having a certain degree of respect for the strangers. Then an elder human approached them and spoke.
I couldn't help hear, your friend called you Captain. Do you own a ship?
"Why?"
"I may be interested in hire it."
"For what, may I ask?"
"It would be preferable if we discuss this at a table." The elder man said.
"By all means, lead the way." Kirk stated.
As the old man gone to seat at a table, McCoy addressed Kirk. "Jim, are you really considering hire the Enterprise? Only God knows what elicit substances he would like to transport."
"There is no harm in hear what he has to say, Bones." Maybe we can get some information from him. After all isn't like we have many other options at this moment."
Moments later all three were seated at the table with the elder man and also a boy there.
"So Mister..."
"Kenobi, Ben Kenobi" The elder man replied.
"Well Mr. Kenobi, I'm James T Kirk, Captain of the Enterprise, for what is that you want a ship?"
"I was interested in reach the Alderaan System. Is your ship fast?"
"I haven't yet seen a faster ship then the Enterprise. What's the cargo?"
"Only passenger, myself, the boy, two droids and no questions asked."
"Any local problems?"
"Let's just say we'd like to avoid any Imperial entanglements."
"Maybe we can help each other then?" Kirk decided to put the cards on the table.
"We are not from these parts, we got here by accident. We may be able to get you to that Alderaan System, but first I really would like to make you some questions."
"If I can answer them." Kenobi said.
"What is this Empire?"
"You are kidding us right? How can anyone not know who the Empire is?" Luke spouted.
"Like I said, we are not from around here"
"Are you from the unknown regions?"
"You can say that." Kirk stated.
