a/n: I have taken Anastasia, the animated movie of awesomeness, and fused Star Trek with it! :D
It's not even a crossover, really… I'm just taking Anastasia's essential plot and adapting it to Trek… But I may as well give credit where it's due.
Star Trek is © Paramount. Anastasia is © Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation.
Chapter One
Fifteen years later, Amanda Grayson was back on Earth and had adopted Nyota after her father's death had left her an orphan. Never having accepted the death of her only son – Sybok had been the child of a woman from his past – Amanda had an intergalactic reward posted. Should anyone find Spock, dead or alive, they would be rewarded handsomely. Should the person to find her son be a member of Starfleet, her connection to Admiral George Kirk almost guaranteed a promotion in the ranks.
James Tiberius Kirk was very interested in a promotion, no matter what the chances of finding Spock were. He knew that many had tried to bring Spock to Amanda, but she really wanted the real deal so those who tried usually couldn't even pass a simple blood test. Most who tried to be Spock were just human with surgically false ears. One Vulcan had tried and one Romulan, who'd nearly killed Amanda in her sleep.
Jim, though, knew what he needed. He needed someone who was half-Vulcan and half-human. It couldn't be extremely difficult to find someone like that. Humans had been fascinated by the Vulcans since the race had landed on Earth so many years before.
He was only a couple of missions away from becoming a captain; however, all the options open to him were just… boring. Jim wanted a challenge. The search for Spock, he'd decided, would be one hell of a fascinating challenge, almost a game.
"Bones, I have a plan!"
Leonard "Bones" McCoy didn't even look up from his practice-sutures. Rarely did the doctor go in for such invasive procedures, but if the situation came up he wanted to be ready. "Do I really want to know?"
"Of course you do!" Beaming, the young man took up the seat beside his best friend and roommate. "Scotty's up for it."
"Then let's do it?" He looked up long enough to show off his uninterested expression before returning to his work.
Jim ignored the expression, listening only to the words. "Of course we're going to do it. We're going to find Spock."
"Damn it, Jim, I'm a doctor, not a ghost buster! There's no point in trying to find someone who's dead."
"But Bones, think about it. If we find him, or a half-Vulcan who wants to be him, it would be our ticket to the big time!"
"Funny. I never considered prison to be the 'big time.'"
Jim sighed, shaking his head. "Fine. I'm sure I can find someone else who wants to be my chief medical officer… I'm sure that someone else wouldn't mind bring a family back together after so long, either. But don't worry about it, Bones."
He started to leave, doing a silent countdown in his head. When Bones called him back, he grinned. It never failed. "All right, fine, Jim. But if this gets to be a pain in the ass, I'm quitting."
"Perfect! Now let's just go borrow a ship that'll get us to Vulcan!"
Bones blinked, watching his friend scurry off. He knew, and Jim knew, that 'borrow' meant 'steal.' "Damn it, Jim!"
See? It's already shorter than the prologue, lol. Second chapter'll be up soon! Please review :D
