SPOCK IN WONDERLAND

The Away Team Goes into The Light and Spock Reminisces About his Teddy Bear

"Come on, the signal is this way." Jim beckoned to Sulu, Mccoy and the rest of the away team. He crept along with stealth – well, as much stealth as a man in a bright yellow shirt can have on a planet with entirely black vegetation. In fact, they all stood out like the gigantic rainbow flag that had been painted on the side of Earth's White House in the late 2100's. Yet this did not stop them pretending to creep along like stealthy assassins. Oh if only the Enterprise, with all its technology, had camouflage equipment.

"I don't know about this Jim." Mccoy raised that lethal eyebrow that had brought lesser men to their knees. "A distress signal, but no life-forms? Sounds like a mistake at best and a trap at worst."

"Mccoy, stop being so cheerful. You're making the whole team seem glum." The Captain clapped his surgeon on the shoulder with a smile that Mccoy had long ago filed under 'smarmy little shite' in his head. "It is our duty as a Federation Ship to investigate any distress signals in our vicinity."

"Captain, what's – " Before Jim could follow the line of Sulu's strong fencing arm as he pointed, there was a flash of white light and the world vanished.

. . .

"Stardate 2396.8, First Officer Spock's log. The away team, including the Captain have disappeared on the Planet Raegin Twelve. It is possible that they have entered a shielded area, had their communicators destroyed or are destroyed themselves. In all logic, they cannot have simply disappeared. The Enterprise is picking up some sort of signal, but a power source of unknown origin is interfering with the ship's instruments. I have beamed down with Communications officer Uhura and Head Engineer Scotty to investigate the sight of the signal."

Spock snapped his communicator shut and clipped it back on to his belt. Why Starfleet had not issued attachable bungee cords for both phasers and communicators seemed illogical to him, but Starfleet had rejected the idea on the basis that it looked 'uncool' and would make exploration 'less interesting'. Sometimes humans were so illogical, it almost made him have an emotion. But instead of mourning a lost cause, he took out his tricorder. The readings were normal except….there was something. Just over the rise, it seemed.

"Spock to Enterprise." Static. "Spock to Enterprise."

Static again. Interesting, but not surprising. And it did not sound like the Communications officer was just making a 'Kssssshhhhh' sound into the com, as Uhura had done last week to celebrate the Earth custom of April Fools. Why leaving Jim and Mccoy temporarily stranded on a plateau of Trivoski Limb-Huggers for two hours (a life-form that is comprised of many limbs and, in a great herd, likes to cling on to – or 'hug - other life-forms so that the life form cannot move and slowly dies of starvation) was logical, Spock could not see. By now, he thought that the whole crew knew angering Mccoy would make their next physical exam an unsettling experience.

Well, he had one clear course of action, and that was to follow the readings.

The other side of the rise was not dissimilar to the rest of the planet – black vegetation rising to a height of nothing over 1 foot precisely. Except…Fascinating. Spock's fantastically linear brows furrowed slightly. A white life-form resembling an Earth rabbit bounded through the undergrowth, carrying with it what looked like a pair of communicators. Not only that, but it had a waistcoat and a pocket watch. How strange indeed. The planet had not registered any life-forms, and his tricorder was not registering any life as they knew it. So he set his phaser to stun and followed the being.

"Spock to Scotty." Static.

"Spock to Uhura." Static.

He could not contact the Enterprise, he could not contact his away team, and he had no contact with that fal khart-lan Jim's team either, other than this 'rabbit'. So logically, this was the most progressive course of action.

On the other side of the rise opened up a cave or tunnelling of a small size, into which the reading from the communicator led. The dirt walls held some unusual composites, but nothing harmful. This seemed to be an access-way to the power source producing the 'rabbit' form. Why humans insisted on petting creatures like that always escaped him. No, teddy bears with six-inch fangs were far more logical. They were….settling to have around –

The ground opened up beneath him, and the only thought he had before plummeting into blackness was the single word 'fascinating'.


A/N: So I'm back! I hope you enjoy this - I have got into Star Trek in a huge way recently, so here's a really silly (100% not serious) Star Trek Series to enjoy. :D

Site I use for my Vulcan: /vld/

Original series stardates are the derpiest thing

I'll explain some references, although you guys probably know what they are anyway:

Spock actually had a teddy bear with six inch fangs (they're Vulcan animals called sehlats) when he was little :D Mccoy won't ever let him live it down.

Spock thinking belt-bungees would be logical for communicators (at least) is due to the fact that they get taken\stolen\lost on a regular basis. In the episode Miri it almost costs the entire away team their lives.

Updates will probably be random, but hopefully weekly.

Thanks a heap for reading, and as always tell me what you think!
