It's been week since the Enterprise lost its captain.

Kirk had traveled to what they thought would be a peaceful meeting between two captains. No one had contacted Altans before. It was to be a monumental day.

Monumental, indeed. One minute the ship was onscreen, and the next it - and Kirk's shuttlecraft - had vanished.

Several hours ago, Uhura found the signal from Kirk's communicator. Now Spock is alone, scouring the unnamed planetoid for the captain. He knows that onboard the ship, the crew is anxiously awaiting for his report.

He only hopes he will be the bearer of good news.
