Chapter 12

Uhura and Sulu were back where they belong, on the bridge, once again. They took their usual seats and started doing their jobs as usual.

"We're glad to have you back, Mr. Sulu, Miss Uhura," Scotty said from the captain's chair.

"We're glad to be back, Mr. Scott," Sulu said as he pressed some buttons.

"Mr. Scott, how is Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock?" Uhura asked.

"Dr. McCoy is operating right now, and should be done soon," Scotty explained. "He will tell us when he's done."

"I hope they pull through," Chekov said.

"Don't we all," Sulu replied.

A couple of hours later, Dr. McCoy entered the bridge with a smile on his face.

"So did they make it? Are they alright?" Scott asked.

"They are just fine," Dr. McCoy smiled. "The anesthesia hasn't worn off yet, but when it does they'll return back to normal. They will be on bed rest for a week, so it looks like you all will have Scotty as captain for a little while."

"I'm just glad Kirk and Spock made it," Sulu said.

"Sulu, Uhura, we have you two to thank. If you hadn't had found Jim and Spock in the nick of time, we'd have no captain or first officer," Dr. McCoy said thankfully.
