Recently I went on a mission trip to Oklahoma City and had an experience similar to this, it was really cool, we volunteered at the boys and girls club! If any of you ever want to do a good deed, I'd recommend volunteering at the boys and girls club near you! Its just great!
I own nothing.

Captains log: ( A.N: I'm sorry, I have no idea how the Stardate system works, if anyone can explain it, I would greatly appreciate it!)
We have been ordered to transport supplies to the planet, Talus III. Because the planet has recently flourished, they are running low on medicine and other necessities. I am allowing the crew a few days shore leave after we accomplish our task.

"When they said this place 'flourished' they meant it..." Uhura marveled as they walked through the village. Children everywhere turned and looked at the passing crew, some waved, and some began to follow them from far behind. Kirk smiled when he saw them running and chasing one another around the buildings.
"We can't thank you enough for coming, the population here nearly tripled in the past two years; we don't know what to do with ourselves!" The council elder said, waving his thin arms towards the people.
"I apologize; we had trouble finding you a place to stay for the night. I still have arrangements to make with the innkeeper if you don't mind waiting...?"
"Not at all, take your time!" Kirk replied. The elder nodded and walked off. The crewmembers turned to each other and began speaking, but Kirk wasn't listening.
A little girl was curled up against one of the buildings, silently crying to herself. Kirk quietly stepped over to her.
"What's wrong?" He asked in a concerned voice, crouching down next to her. She looked up, her dark hair hanging in her face.
"I hurted my knee..." she sniffled. Kirk slided over to look at it. He could see a scrape, but it didn't break the skin.
"Oh... Oh my gosh. This looks terrible! How did this happen?" Kirk said animatedly.
"I... I felled down when I was running..." She replied, air hitching in her throat.
Shifting his gaze from her knee to her face, he gasped in mock horror.
"You need to see a doctor immediately before the damage is permanent! Come on!" He said, letting her hop onto his back. She wrapped her arms around his neck, grinning.
Kirk bounded off at a run, sprinting towards the nearest group of kids.
"Is anyone here a doctor? We need a doctor! She's dying! She's dying!" The girl on Kirk's back giggled, when the group didn't reply, he sped off down the dirt street, hopping over potted plants and other obstacles much to the girl's amusement. He came to a stop in front of a little boy kicking a rock by himself. Kirk leaned over with his hands on his knees, panting.
"Are you a doctor?"
The boy shook his head and smiled, his dark hair flopping around in the air.
"Do you know anyone who is?" Kirk said, still gasping for breath. The girl on his back snickered. The boy grabbed his hand, pulling him forward.
"You're a life saver!" He pulled them behind a house where two girls were sitting and playing with dolls on a short stone wall. They looked up as Kirk approached.
"Are you a doctor? Can you help her?" He said in his playful voice. The blonde girl nodded, holding up her doll which had a bandaged leg.
Kirk set his passenger down on a pink plastic chair that the 'Doctor' pointed at.
"What's your name?" she asked her patient.
"Macy." She replied, grinning.
"I'm Dr. Maddie!" The blonde girl replied happily. "What seems to be the pwoblem?" She asked, with Kirk and the others watching intently.
"I felled on my knee." Macy said in a small voice. Maddie nodded.
"Nurse Jamie, pass me the bandages!" The 'Doctor' said to the girl behind her. She passed Maddie a roll of green ribbon that she began wrapping intently around Macy's leg. Macy watched her progress in interest.
"Don't look at it, it'll only make you feel worse!" Maddie warned. "How old are you?" Maddie asked, trying to distract her.
"Five!" Macy replied.
"Five? Me too!" Maddie exclaimed. She tied a knot at the end of the ribbon to keep it from sliding.
"Is she going to live Doctor?" Kirk asked in a concerned voice.
Maddie grinned up at Kirk and nodded energetically. "She'll be oooo-kay!" She emphasized. Macy stood up, the green ribbon on her leg looking like an odd stocking, going from the bottom of her shorts to her ankle. She bounced up and down.
"It works! It works!" She shouted. "Thank you, Doctor, thank you Mr. Ambulance!" She giggled, hugging Kirk's leg.
"Call me Jim." He replied modestly. Maddie hopped forward.
"Can I have a ride, Mr. Ambulance?" She asked, tugging his shirt.
It wasn't much longer until Kirk was running with the girl on his back, a group of kids running behind him for their next turn.
"Wee-woo wee-woo wee-woo!" Kirk shouted, imitating an ambulance.

The rest of the crew watched with amused expressions. They had never seen the captain so happy before. Bones let out a light chuckle, Spock just stared as Kirk laughed, giving the every single kid a ride.
Uhura felt a tug on her shirt. She looked down. A little girl stared up at her, smiling.
"You hair is really pretty, can I touch it?"

Next to come is Uhura's experience with the local kids! Post please, or my next chapter will be my last!
