Next Chapter is here! Hey guys, just so ya know, I don't own Star Trek in any way. Which makes me sad..
Chapter 13: Transporter
As they walked to the door of T' Pell's house, Spock looked at the sun. He could tell it was around 9:45. He knocked on the door. After him and T' Pin had waited for about thirty seconds the door swung open to reveal T' Pell.
She had changed into a purple tank top and black pants.
"Spock." she said showing only a tiny bit of surprise in her voice. She stared at him the same way he stared at T' Pin. "What brings you to my home?" she asked finally noticing T' Pin.
"We are in need of the use of your transporter." T' Pin said "May we come in?"
"Of course" T' Pell said moving to the side to let her friends by. As Spock passed her, her heart skipped a beat.
"What has happened that you need to use my transporter?" T' Pell asked leading them into her kitchen where they sat around the dinner table.
"My mother has been kidnapped; the people who did it have her captured in Dovetown and want 2,000 credits." Spock said intertwining his fingers, putting his elbows on the table top.
"That is most unfortunate, I wish to help. May I come with and be of any assistance?" T' Pell asked looking from Spock to T' Pin.
"I do not wish you to risk your life for that of my mother or myself." Spock said
"How much do we know about the people who abducted your mother?" T' Pin asked
"Nothing, besides that they have my mother and they might live near Dovetown."
"Then for all we know, all they want is the credits. Your father is a very wealthy man; he would be an ideal target for ransom money. The abductors may not even know he's off planet. So if we cooperate there should be no danger." T' Pin stated. They sat in silence for a moment then Spock broke the tension.
"You may accompany us. Now may we use your transporter?" Spock said growing impatient only wanting to see his mother alive.
"Yes, follow me." She stood and walked leading them down a narrow hallway. She turned into the third door they passed. They were standing in a transporter room. Complete with a control panel.
"Please step onto the pad." T' Pell said while pressing buttons at warp speed (sorry, couldn't resist) on the control panel. "I cannot guarantee that it will function properly." T' Pell said looking up from the multicolored buttons.
"Specify."' Spock said, now becoming concerned.
"This is just my prototype. I've only been able to travel as far as school, let alone out of the town. I don't even know if it can handle three Vulcans."
"I don't care. I'll try it anyway." Spock said looking determined
She looked up from the panel then at T' Pin who nodded her head. She then pulled three levers down and ran onto the pad.
Spock noticed the room around him disappear and reappear in the outskirts of Dovetown.
"T' Pell, if I didn't have self-control I would kiss you!" Spock said barely containing his joy that it had worked.
T' Pell blushed, she felt herself turn green.
They were standing on a dirt road that led into the city. It was bigger than Spock's hometown, by a lot. It was one of the biggest cities on Vulcan, and it had three libraries. Each would have to be checked within the hour.
"We have three destinations to search and time is our enemy. So I propose we split up and each search a library." Spock said looking back and forth at the girls as he spoke.
"I suggest we perform a mind meld so we can telepathically communicate which one of us has the correct library." T' Pell said
That was why he was so fond of his new friends they were always one step ahead of him.
"That sounds acceptable." Spock said turning to T' Pell. Slowly extending his hand and placing it on her face. He penetrated her mind.
Spock was falling, falling into an abyss. But a hand caught him by the collar. It chokes him. He reached up his hand to remover his saviors hand before he suffocated. Then with sudden astounding strength, the hands owner pulled him out of darkness and onto a field of leaves. He collapsed onto his knees, coughed and gasped for breath. He was in a forest with tall trees painted with red and yellow leaves. He looked to see the owner of the hand was T' Pell.
"Hello Spock. Welcome to my mind."
