I don't own Yu Yu Hakusho or Star Trek, just playing with them for awhile. Hope you like. I know, it's kinda weird, but hey, I need something to cheer me up. Happy Halloween.
The six months passed quickly for all involved. In the human realm, the Enterprise was returned to working condition in 3 months time, a full 2 months ahead of the given schedule. Picard had spent the time getting to know the new second in command that was commissioned to the Enterprise, Commander Pyle. He was no where near as easy going as Will Riker, but by the end of his first month aboard, Captain Picard had come to trust him. Getting use to Data being gone had been difficult. He would catch himself at times turning to ask the android for the exact answer to some fact and catch himself when he wasn't there. Worf had been transferred back to the Enterprise and had taken over as security officer once again. Worf and Geordi had spent alot of time together while the Enterprise was in dry dock and had become very good friends.
Finally the Enterprise pulled out of dry dock. The first month was spent running small errands for the Federation higher ups, to make sure that all bugs were out of the system from the repairs. Almost a month and a half after leaving dry dock, the Enterprise away team found themselves stuck on a planet. Picard, Worf and Geordi were crouched behind a rock outcropping, getting fired upon by the paranoid locals. Worf growled low in his throat as he hit his communicator, getting no response.
"It seems that the ion ring around this planet is affecting our communicator's more then we originally thought." Worf stated calmly. All three looked up in surprise and a bit of fear as a local jumped up right in front of them and fired at them. Three sets of eyes closed, preparing for the shots to hit them, having discovered that their phaser's weren't working on this planet already, only to feel themselves being pulled backwards. Eyes opened to see the stunned look on the local's face, his gaze focusing behind them and then the local scene disappeared to be replaced by a bulk head.
In a haze of confusion, they heard a familiar voice speak "Are you ok, Mindara?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the six months since Data had been rescued and pulled into the spirit world, he had become very comfortable with the demon realm. He found Mindara, as well as her parents and her lord, to be very intelligent people, although a bit distant. He and Mindara were becoming good friends when the time came for them to leave to rescue his captain. As much as he had been enjoying Mindara's company, he did realize that he was excited to be able to see Geordi again. They arrived at the spot with no time to spare and upon opening the portal, they had watched with horror as the local had popped up in front of those needing rescue and had aimed a primative rifle at them. Data had been reaching for his weapon when the local fired. He noticed with some satisfaction the bullet fly safely to the side as it hit a shield Mindara had erected.
With the quickest of glances at Mindara, who was showing real strain from having to keep the portal open as well as having to erect the shield, she caught his glance and gave a terse nod, sweat showing on her forehead. Data reached through and grabbed Worf and Geordi, one with each hand while Mindara grabbed the back of Picard's tunic with both hands, both pulled backwards.
The moment they were all fully in the small ship, Mindara let the portal close and collapsed, curling into a fetal position as her body protested the sudden use of her spirit energy.
Data, after giving a cursory glance at his old friends, turned to his new one. "Are you ok, Mindara?" Worry deepened his voice, uncharacteristically, as he bent over her. He caught the others turning to him from the corner of his eye, but his attention was drawn back to Mindara as she groaned and pushed herself off the floor, slightly rolled and sat half up, hitting a few buttons on the console, cloaking the ship. Once done, she layed back on the floor, eyes closed, trying to slow her breathing. She slowly opened one red eye to Data and gave a small smile "I'm fine, I just need to lay here for a moment and then I will be ready to go." Her other eye opened and she looked at her guests. "Welcome aboard."
Data finally turned his attention to the others and found them staring at him in awe. Geordi's voice was incredulous as he spoke "Data?" "Hello Geordi. It is good to see you all again. Forgive us for the rough treatment in getting you here, it's very hard for Mindara to hold portals open long enough to pull others through." He looks at Mindara as she pushes herself up to a sitting position, her adding to his statement "Plus I had to throw up a shield to save you from that crazy ningen local." Data gave her a nod, knowing about her spirit energy. She smiled at them and Picard took over for the three flabbergasted Federation officers. "Data, I thought you died."
Data nodded "I would have if Mindara hadn't saved me at the last moment." Geordi looked curiously at Mindara "How did you save him?"
Mindara sighed, about to explain when suddenly a loud siren sounded from the console. She jumped to her feet at demon speed and in the blink of an eye was sitting down at the console. "Damn, Yhakimo's men. We need to get out of here."
Data nodded and sat next to her, she glanced over her shoulder as she spoke, her fingers still moving over the console, preparing the ship to leave. "I will answer your questions in a bit, please stay seated."
They all stared incredulously at her and then she looked to Data as he began to pilot the small craft with ease. "We can't outrun them in the Dimwit, we are going to need to jump." Data nodded "What about to the Enterprise?" She shook her head, studying the panel in front of her, where information was appearing rapidly "No, the Enterprise will be watched. We need to go to another one." Data nodded and hit a few buttons, bringing up the schematics of a ship. "We have allies on this ship." Rain quickly read it, her eyebrows raising at the name of the ship's captain and she nodded. "Fine, get us to it's location and we will do a spiritual docking and then leave the Makai."
Picard frowned "Wait, why can't we go to the Enterprise?" "Because Yhakimo's men will be watching it, trust me they don't care about the Enterprise, they are after me and you. We have another option, don't worry Captain, your ship will be fine and we can meet up with it soon enough to transfer you back to it." Picard nodded, not use to having his authority ignored, but consenting.
Data and Mindara worked together and within minutes the ship slowed and Data moved from the controls as Mindara performed the spiritual bonding. She was no longer touching the controls, but holding her hands above it, a soft blue glow encircling her hands, spreading to the console. Finally she pulled back with a smile and stood. She moved to the back of the ship and opened a storage compartment.
Worf looked over her shoulder as she started to grab small seeds and stick them in her hair, her hands flying with familiarity. "What are you doing?" "Arming myself."
"Those are seeds." This came from Picard. Mindara finished grabbing a few rose seeds and looked back at him, "Yes, I know." Data smiled "She can use plants to protect herself and others, captain, trust me, it's quite impressive." All three Starfleet officers looked shocked but nodded, believing Data. Finally she reached into the small closet, put her demon robe on, wearing Yusuke's colors, and attaching her katana to her belt. She looked at them "I'm ready to go, are you four?"
She noticed their scowls "What?" "You are wearing a sword." She nodded "Katana actually, don't worry, I am very skilled with it." She gave Data a quick grin and then blinked as the alarm sounded again "Damn, gotta jump now. As soon as the portal opens, jump through." They all nodded, although a bit confused (except Data) and Mindara closed her eyes and opened her portal.
Without hesitation, Data jumped through, followed by a less then enthusiastic Geordi, Picard and Worf. Mindara was last, leaping through with ease, however she had misjudged the distance to the ground and found herself jumping near the ceiling of the bridge of the ship. With her paternal given talents she twisted in midair and landed softly next to Data, who had also landed on his feet. They both looked down at the others and Mindara reached a hand out to Worf while Data helped Geordi and Picard up. Worf meerly raised an eyebrow in her direction and then took her offered hand, his eyebrows went farther up when she easily pulled him to his feet.
Picard landed in a heap at the feet of the ship's captain and he looked up into the stunned eyes of his former first officer before Data pulled him up. The ship's bridge was silent as Will and Deanna looked at their friends, one who was suppose to be dead, as well as the short woman who just pulled Worf up like he was a toddler. Picard straightened his uniform "Sorry, Captain. I guess our entrance was a bit unexpected."
Mindara was not paying attention, her head was tilted up, her gaze focused on the still open portal. She growled very loudly as a demon's head peered through the portal. "BASTARD". With that she lept straight up, her hand grabbing her katana in mid jump. All eyes had turned to see the small woman jump straight to the ceiling and a sword in her hand. Hands grabbed phasers, but a soft word from Data caused Riker to tell his officers to hold their fire.
With deadly precision, Mindara dispatched the demon, who had a red cross on his forehead. She lept into the ship, ran to the console, seperated it from the ship and yelling out the destruction sequence, darted back into the portal, flipping with her back to the floor, as she pointed her index finger at the opening, shouting "SPIRIT GUN".
The blue bolt slammed into the top of the Dimwit's bulkhead and the portal closed as the Dimwit's interior exploded into flame from her shot. Mindara landed in a crouch, panting heavily. She slowly rose, the silent bridge's occupants watching her in awe, muttering to herself "Well, that was a waste of a good ship, Lord Yusuke isn't going to be happy about this."
Captain Riker finally got his wits about him, after watching this and spoke first. "Do you mean Yusuke Urameshi, one of the three demon lords of the Makai?" Data and Mindara both turn to him, Mindara's mouth is open in surprise. "Who do you know who Lord Yusuke is?"
The six months passed quickly for all involved. In the human realm, the Enterprise was returned to working condition in 3 months time, a full 2 months ahead of the given schedule.
