Chapter 1

Sulu looked at the screen in front of him. Navigating the Starship Enterprise into deep space was pretty hard, but it was something he loved to do. As he kept his careful eye on the screen, he noticed something unusual. A huge, round pink sphere, most likely a planet.

"Captain, could you come over here? I wanna know if my eyes are playing tricks on me," Sulu said to the captain of the Enterprise, James T. Kirk. "Do you see that pink sphere on the screen?"

"Mr. Sulu, your eyes are definitely not playing tricks on you. I see it, too," Kirk declared. "It appears to be a orb; a planet of some kind. An unidentified, strange looking planet. I think we should beam down to see what's there."

"Aye, sir."

Kirk looked over to Spock.

"Mr. Spock, would you like to beam down and investigate this planet?" Kirk asked.

"Yes, Captain," Spock said. "I have got to go. I need to take some scientific samples and observations."

"Great, and I know you would like to come along, Mr. Sulu. After all, you found the planet," Kirk said.

"Who's going to navigate?" Sulu asked.

"I'm sure Mr. Scott wouldn't mind," Kirk said and then waked over to Scott. "Scotty, could you beam down Spock, Sulu, and myself, and take Sulu's place until we return??"

"Aye, aye, sir," Scott smiled as he pressed some buttons, and soon Kirk, Spock, and Sulu were on the mysterious pink planet.
