AN: Jonny2b here again helping out on bringing you a favorite of mine. A Piece of the Action. My all-time favorite Star Trek. Ok here we go for some fun

Hope you guys enjoy this fic!


A few weeks had passed since Spock's pon farr phase. T'Lora had been getting along better with Kirk, McCoy and especially Spock in the coming weeks ahead. It seemed she was well adjusting to the crew as well. Even though her and Spock had feelings for each other, somewhat they still kept things business on the missions they went on. Nurse Chapel though disliked the fact that T'Lora and Spock made it work out for each other. It was in all lines of work and didn't matter where it went. Dr. McCoy appreciated T'Lora's help as a nurse and became friends with her as well. Yoman Rand asked to be transfer a desk job for the time being until she found a better star ship to serve on. Everyone highly doubted a newer flagship will happen anytime soon. Poor Rand. As that being a fact, Kirk and T'Lora have become close friends. Though he still practiced his flirting advances on her as the ladies' man he was. They still made an internal joke once in a while on the side.

One day it had been announced that SS Horizon had been lost over 100 years ago then a subspace radio message saying they had departed Sigma Lotia II. Unfortunately this was 100 years before the federation of planets had entered the no interference law, aka the prime directive which was a major issue that was debated over as the federation wanted to explore strange new worlds and seek out new life and civilization. But ran into the problem of whether or not to interfere or not with native aliens of those planets. Starfleet had this issue for the longest time and weather this new law was prominent or not had decided to fix whatever problems arose until the prime directive would really take shape. Which would be another 100 years or so.

T'Lora had entered the bridge as she would bring Kirk coffee up occasionally with Yoman gone. As the ship was orbiting Sigma Lotia II, everyone was on alert.

"Approaching Sigma Lotia II, Captain", Chekov said.

"Standard orbit, Mr. Chekov", Kirk ordered.

"Captain, I have received vocal contact from an official station", Uhura said. "They relayed us to a man named Oxmyx. His title is Boss."

T'Lora's eyes light up.

"What is a boss?" she asked.

"A leader, according to my sources", Uhura answered.

"Boss?" Kirk asked chuckling. "All right, Lieutenant, put him on. Oxmyx... This is Captain James T. Kirk of the starship Enterprise, representing the Federation of Planets."

"Hello, Captain", Oxmyx greeted through the transmission. "You're from the same outfit as the Horizon?"

"Yes. Unfortunately, the Horizon was lost with all hands shortly after leaving your planet. We only received her radio report last month."

"Last month? What are you talking about? The Horizon left here a hundred years ago."

"Difficult to explain", Kirk mumbled. "We received a report a hundred years late because it was sent by conventional radio. Your system is on the outer reaches of the galaxy. They didn't have subspace communication in those days."

"Toward the edge of what?" Oxmyx asked.

"I'll explain it in more detail when I see him", he notified the crew quietly before returning to the conversation. "The ship won't land, but we'll transport several people down. Well, that's a little difficult for you to understand, too. I'll explain it in more detail when I see you. Where will be convenient?"

"Well, there's an intersection just at the end of the block, near a yellow fire plug. Think you can find it?"

"Scotty, do you have the coordinates?" Kirk asked as he took a look at the computer Scotty was using to find the location.

"Located, sir", he nodded.

"Good. Mr. Oxmyx, we have your intersection located. Will five minutes be all right?"

"Fine, fine", Oxmyx answered. "I'll have a reception committee there to meet you."

"Good", Kirk smiled. "I'll be looking forward to it. Kirk out. Scotty, you have the conn. T'Lora, come with me."

McCoy and Spock entered from the turbolift, making T'Lora smile.

"Just in time, you two", she said. "Are you ready for another mission?"

"Mission?" Spock asked.

"Spock, McCoy, we're beaming down", Kirk explained. "Standard equipment."
