Starfleet Command: Order 79201-7: Recipient; Captain J. T. Kirk U.S.S. Enterprise

Command has found it necessary to place four junior officers under you jurisdiction as an official experiment. They will arrive shortly, in four standard hours from the time this correspondence is sent. An official Starfleet scientific observer will arrive three weeks after to observe the effects of circumstances on said experimentals, and will continue for one week before returning to Starbase IV.

END MESSAGE

Kirk screwed his face into a queried look, wondering what SC meant by 'junior officer'. Then he noticed the date and time on the message... Three hours ago... they had only one more hour to get quarters ready and prepare for their arrival. He alerted the yeomen to get extra quarters ready, and made his way to the transporter room, signaling Spock and McCoy to come along, comming Scotty on the way to get the transporter ready.

Later...

Four sparkly presences manifested themselves in the transporter room, and they materialized in a few seconds.

"Meh!" exhaled one of them, a short human female with short, curly blond hair "We're alive!"

"No dip, Sherlock." muttered a tallish human female with long golden brown hair, streaked with black. "This transporter unit is perfectly operational, and I even checked it for malfunctions before we beamed here. Unforeseeable malfunction would be illogical and unlikely." the blonde rolled her eyes irritatedly.

"Whatever you say Ms. Head Engineer, as long as my head stays on the right way."

"This is totally barvy" pouted a very tall blonde. Her hair was long and straight, with glittering ruby-red highlights. "I don't like my molecular structures being screwed with"

The fourth traveler, a Vulcan teenager, about the same age as the rest, looked on in distaste. He was also very tall, with jet black hair and piercing ice-blue eyes. He merely gave the tall blonde a look, and she winked back at him.

Kirk faced the young travelers, the short blonde, the tall blonde, and the girl with golden brown hair, who seemed to be their leader, and the Vulcan boy.

"Now I don't know exactly why you kids are here, but Starfleet put you under MY jurisdiction, so for the next five weeks, you are part of my crew. And you will follow orders as such."

"Yes sir" the four replied crisply.

"Now," continued the Captain, "what are your names?" he inquired

"My name is T'Lali" replied the brown-haired girl, "This is Katiline" she motioned to the short blonde girl, "This is Ruby" and T'Lali gestured to the tall blonde girl, who grinned and waved. "And this," she nodded at the young Vulcan, "is Serik."

"Thank you" Kirk acknowledged. "Yeoman Enno will show you to your quarters. I will contact you when you are needed."

The adolescents left the room with yeoman Enno, but Kirk, Spock and McCoy lingered.

"Well, Jim, the readings say they are perfectly healthy. Physically anyway" McCoy shrugged his shoulders. Kirk nodded and took this into account absentmindedly.

"Captain," interjected Spock, "the girl who calls herself T'Lali. Her's is a Vulcan name, and she is undoubtedly human, albeit an extremely intelligent one by her word choice and sentence structure." McCoy couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"Four profiles with infermation on the kids have been sent, Sir" observed Scotty, who downloaded them onto four data tapes for further reference.

"Briefing room. All of you" Kirk walked out of the room without waiting. In his mind, he was wondering...

Where have I seen that face before?
