AN: Second Installment. Very random but this comes from a conversation several months ago between boyfriend and myself who helped me write this section. Enjoy.
D – Dance Off
"AYO…SPOCK! YA CREW SUCKS, YOU DANCE LIKE BABIES!" Nero cried out to his cousin, his hands on his hips in the most effeminate manner known to man, transcending a 20th century icon name as RuPaul, and Nero's crew didn't help by chewing gum and cuddling into each other.
"Nero…must you continue to use slang that is well past its prime in this century, it is quite annoying but it suits your educational levels quite well. Our dancing skills are far superior to yours in different ways" Spock drawled out as he stepped away from the personal bubble that formed between them, giving a slight growl as the crew of the USS Enterprise (over 480 strong to Nero's 200) giving a massive sound of "AWW SHIT SON!"
Clad in a gold pimp suit, a hat with purple feather trimmings and a wooden walking stick was Captain Kirk-a-licious. "My bruddahs, my main Vulcan…Spock, how you doing babay!?" he purred out giving Spock a tight bro hug, with a slap.
"This fool of a Romulan is bustin' up yo spot, and I gots the best idea. A Dance off to prove that yo crew is da best babay!" Kirk said like it was super obvious. "Romulan versus Vulcan, Cousin versus Cousin. Master versus Bitchass" Kirk sent that comment directly to Nero, who he still has a grudge against for taking away his Daddy and Daddy's lover.
Spock nodded; as he commanded his Lady Uhura brought out the most epic boom-box known to the Federation, and turned it on as it busted out a cheesy techno remix song of the 21st century. Nero stepped away from his crew by swing his arms out and crip walking to center and switching into really creepy interpretive mime dance that made Kirk cry.
Spock released a yell and the music end and the song end. "My turn fool!" he said.
And a most popular tune of the 21st century came with the funkiest lyrics "ALL MAI SINGLE LADIES!" Spock jumped into the air with a half twist and ripped off his clothing to be wearing a one strapped leotard and kitten heels and busted out into the Singe Ladies dance, hip swiveling and gyrating include.
The cheers erupted while Kirk-a-licious cried out for Spock "MAI BABIES, HAVE MAI BABIES BOO!"
"AHHHHHHHHHH NIGHTMARE…BAD IMAGES…BAD IMAGES!!!!! GODDAMMITT!"
"OH МОИ ГЛАЗА, МОИ ПЛОХИЕ ГЛАЗА ОНИ ГОРЯТ! МАМА… SULU ПОМОГАЕТ МНЕ!" came the conjoined cry from the cabin room of one Hikaru Sulu and Pavel Andreivich Chekov. In a flash they both sat up and starred at each other in fright.
"Did you dream that…dancing? Pimps?" Hikaru cried, as he felt Pavel sit on his bed.
"Da, wery scary…my wisibility is hurting now, newer mix whiskey & wodka together again da? Chekov asked Sulu, who could only nod and as he watched his friend go back into his bed, he got himself comfy and turned to look at Chekov on last time.
"Joo know that eet is going to be wery odd on bridge tomorrow. Keptain in peemp suit is odd" Chekov drowned out before falling back to sleep again. Sulu nodded and fell back to sleep.
Neither of them hearing the faint refrain of the song in their cabin and a ghostly voice sing "IF YOU LIKED IT THAN YA SHUDDA PUT A RING ON IT!"
E- Empathy
It was times like this that Jim felt that the weight of being a Captain was terrible. He didn't realize that the amount of dedication that went into this position, he knew that they taught you what you need to know for the Command track but to actually be in the seat and know that you are in control of hundreds of lives was frightening on many levels.
He made sure to know everyone's names and little things about that person because he knew that there was a chance that out of a five year missions, there would be some causalities taken and he didn't just want those people to be a name and number and a generic letter of condolences. They lived on this ship, created a life and family units, and he watched over each one.
He remembered what Pike had told him before he walked into the Enterprise's bridge before everyone else. Admiral Pike had sat next to Kirk, at where the navigator and helmsman sat and starred at him deeply with concern and pride. "Whatever you do, you need courage. Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising that tempt you to believe your critics are right. To map out a course of action and follow it to an end requires some of the same courage that a soldier needs. Peace has its victories, but it takes brave men and women to win them"
Kirk knew that with courage came all that was mentioned but neglected one. The power of Empathy, to understand how his crew feels when there is a loss of a member of their tight knit Enterprisian family, or when to do what is right and wrong for people and to do that for himself as well.
F-Flora and Fauna & Merryweather
When Scotty got the transporter working after being somewhat knocked around, he beamed up the Captain, the First Officer and the Chief Medical Officer. Instead of being in their standard uniform of Command Gold and Science/Medical Blue…they were dressed in little dress with funky looking hats on their head.
Lieutenant Nyota Uhura and Nurse Chapel were there in the transporter room waiting with Scotty and after a few awkward seconds burst out into laughter. "Oh my…this is great!" Uhura crowed out in laughter, holding onto Christine who could only snort into her hand.
"Goddammit Chapel, what in tarnation are you snickering about?" McCoy growled out roughly while Kirk and Spock glared at the women and Scotty.
"Lieutenant Commander Scott, please clarify on our state, if the Lieutenant and Head Nurse are in a state of fits, perhaps we should have the right to know what is so hilarious" Spock said, no emotion showing on his face but his right eyebrow was twitching a bit.
Scotty didn't say anything but pulled turned on the security camera screen to appear in front of the three men who looked like they had been poked with a cattle prod.
"Holy Hell's Bell's…I AM A FLIPPIN FAIRY!!" Kirk yelled out as he spun around in the green dress.
Bones crossed his arms and his gruff exterior took on demonic proportions. "I look like a fucking Disney princess….I will be in my cabin. Taking a shower and putting on my clothes…." He growled out as he stalked out from the transporter room.
Kirk and Spock looked at each other. "Captain…I believe that the little girl on the planet has an admiration for fairytales…particular one called Sleeping Beauty. My mother loved it growing up as a child and there were three fairies dressed in red, blue and green" Spock said as the two left the transporter room, leaving the three to their snickering and laughing.
"Got it. Let's never mention this again"
"Affirmative Jim"
