Chapter one

SPOCKS PERSONAL LOG; STARDATE 48650.1

Captain Kirk caused me to be here, I came to see him in his final resting place, motivated more by nostalgia then by logic. I did not expect some clue as to what was to come.

Spock materialized at the same spot that Captain Picard had stood when he made the monument to his friend; Spock looked at the faded old federation badge, battered by the passage of time that marked his friend's last resting place and remembered. As he stood lost in his past Spock felt a yearning for his years in Starfleet, serving with his departed friend… Illogical yes, but he felt that yearning just the same.

"Spock!" Strange, it was almost as if Spock could hear his old friend, logic would suggest that the combination of his memories and wishful thinking had conjured up a phantom of his past "Spock… can you help me?" There it was again "Curious…that I should hear him so clearly."

Then something occurred to him, because he and Captain Kirk had performed mind melds so many times in the past, a mental connection had been forged, it allowed him to "hear" pieces of Jim's thoughts, no matter how far apart the two were, but the effect was completely random. In fact, Spock had heard his former captain call out to him moments before he fell to his death when he and Captain Picard stopped Dr. Soong from completing his plan to return to the anomaly known as the nexus. If Spock could hear him now, it could mean only one thing…

"Captain Kirk is alive." Across the table of the ready room Picard blinked in surprise at the amazing statement "Ambassador Spock I hope you understand how I would be skeptical about your statement, I witnessed his death after all. "

"It is completely logical that you would be skeptical of my claim but I assure you, it is the truth." Spock said, "However I believe you are aware of the side effect of multiple mind melds with another Sentient?"

The captain leaned forward and stared into his hot cup of earl grey tea for a moment before answering, "Yes I am aware of that effect on Vulcans, the… Te'nel I believe is the word for it." "That is correct captain." "And you believe that you felt the effects of Te'nel while you were down on the surface?" "That is also correct."

Picard frowned "And what is it that you want to do ambassador?" "It is my intention to locate the energy ribbon and rescue Captain Kirk." "Ambassador Spock, I must point out that when we exited the nexus both Kirk and I left a part of ourselves inside, what you heard could be that remnant."

"Normally I would agree Captain, but I believe that there was another effect the Enterprise B's deflector dish had on the nexus, than the one that allowed it to escape, It is my belief that the resonance burst created a harmonic field that would have affected anyone who entered it within the time the burst was activated, "

"What kind of effect, Ambassador?" Picard asked. "I believe that the harmonic field would act as a beacon, and if we activated a resonance burst with the same configuration as the Enterprise B's we would be able to travel to the point where the captain first entered the nexus, and retrieve him."

" The Vulcan dignitaries would think this idea of yours is extremely illogical." Spock then smiled, a rare indulgence into his human side "Captain, as I have discovered, logic, as always with the captain, does not apply to the situation.

Picard smiled, "Well ambassador you have me convinced, but you're going to need a ship."

Spock then handed the Captain of the Enterprise a data pad, "Captain I already have one in mind."
