Disclaimer: I don't own Star Trek.... and you should know that by now as this is the 11th Disclaimer that I have put in this story...... but if you don't that's perfectly fine because now you know... and if you don't it would be kind of cool if someone thought I owned Star Trek....


They were inside a Romulan Bird of Prey, seemingly an old one as many of the walls were coming apart and some of the metal in it was rusting.

The Romulan Captain led the way through the halls, humming something that Spock recognized as Beethoven. Every once in a while, he turned around to check that everyone was there.

Spock raised an eyebrow, as there seemed to be no one else aboard the ship. Examining the floor, he saw very few footprints. Obviously they were alone here. He would have told this observation to the Captain, but was unsure if the Romulan Captain would approve of this.

After approximately 5.68773 minutes, the Romulan Captain stopped, standing in front of a large, sturdy door.

This is where you - all seven of you - will be staying. He said, and with a flick of his wrist, opened the door, revealing a very small, barred, room.

Spock thought that they could easily escape the ship at this point, but the Romulan commander took out a phaser, and pointed it at everyone.

Get in there! He said, Or you die! And all of the other 430 you left aboard your ship!

425, Captain. Spock corrected, and the Romulan snarled. Be quiet, Vulcan! In fact, everyone here should be quiet!

Lieutenant Uhura asked,Does that include you? Or just us?

Spock was startled at the Lieutenant's logic, but also at her illogic. The Romulan Captain possessed strength much greater than the Lieutenant's, and Spock knew from experience that Romulans were quite violent. It did not make sense to insult one of them.

The Romulan Captain screamed at her. I told you to be quiet! My ship is depending on this! Now get in there! The Romulan Captain violently shoved everyone into the room, slamming the huge, heavy door, then Spock heard his echoing footsteps traveling through the halls.

This is it. The Captain said, slumping back against the wall, I hate to say it, but there's no way out. He pounded uselessly against the stone wall.

Well, at least we have food, Lieutenant Sulu said,shoving a piece of meatloaf onto the floor, I stole this from Mr. Scott.

Yeoman Rand eyed it suspiciously. Didn't Scotty say that it tasted like.... some sort of Scottish food?

Spock raised an eyebrow. This was exceptionally illogical - the Yeoman had food, yet was rejecting it because of its taste. Even more illogical than this was that she had not even tasted it yet. This was very unreasonable, and Spock thought of telling her this, but decided that he had matters which the humans would consider more important to discuss first.

Yeoman, pass me some of that meatloaf, The Captain said, and she followed his orders with a slight pout upon her face.

Once the Captain had the meatloaf, Spock walked over to him.

Captain, I advise that - He began, but the Captain shoved him off.

Spock, I am by no means giving you any of this meatloaf!

That is not what I wished to speak about, Spock said, wondering what was the matter with his Captain, I wished to discuss -

Again, the Captain attempted to push him away.

Spock, I know you really want to eat some of this, but we have to save it.

He does have a good point, Spock,The Doctor added, sitting down on the grimy floor,If you all eat all of the meatloaf, there will be no food! And that means that.... we will all die! The Doctor was saying this with a slightly excited look on his face, and Spock admitted to himself that he did not quite know what to make of it. It seems that all of the excitement' of the past few minutes was gravely affecting their minds. Either this or that they were only being illogical. Spock suspected the latter.

Captain, it would be wise to exit this room immediately -

Spock stopped mid-sentence, a thing so rare that everyone in the room except for the Captain looked up. He was busy biting the meatloaf into small pieces, singing softly to himself as he did so.

Spock turned to the Doctor.Doctor, I believe that the Captain needs medical treatment immediately.

The Doctor did not even acknowledge his words, just sat staring blankly at the cracked wall.


He asked, and she promptly stood up. Please check the Captain and the Doctor for any possible disease.

She shook her head. I can't. All of the medical equipment is back on the ship.

Spock's mind was soaring with ideas, and he thought for a few seconds as to which was the most logical. Finally he came to a conclusion.

He said,Lieutenant Uhura, Lieutenant Sulu, Yeoman Rand, come with me. We must escape this place and tell Mr. Chekov of our current situation.

But, Mr. Spock, how are we going to do that? Lieutenant Uhura asked,We can't just walk out of here!

Spock raised an eyebrow. Actually, Lieutenant, we can. The Romulan Captain neglected to lock the door.

A/N - Sorry that this chapter took so long in coming. I was busy studying for school because I had to make up a lot of the work that I missed. On a brighter note... I GOT REVIEWS!!!! THANK YOU!!!!! =D

Blynneda- Thanks for all of your help pointing out errors! =) I just noticed while reading your reviews that I have this thing against McCoy. Hmmm...
If you ever see that guy who was playing the techno music again, you should throw a rock at him. Don't you think it's annoying reading in computer labs though? People always want to see what I'm reading, and then they think that I am completely weird when I tell them. I know that you deserve a super-long reply here, but it's really late at night and I can't think of anything! Help!

Tavia- We can't blast the Romulans because... otherwise there would be no plot! And if there is no plot, that means... the computer will keep going on about logical eating habits! OK, sorry, that was a bit random.... Yeah. It's actually kind of fun looking up information for stories... don't kill me for saying that, I'm just hyper right now. Not the best time for me to be writing, but oh well. You looked up Scottish saints? Wow. Couldn't anyone just wander into the Neutral Zone? Well, actually, if that happened the Romulans would have killed everybody... okay, I am going to stop writing because I am confusing myself here.... =D

Ms_vegeta_black- Thanks! I'm glad that you like it.

About the Plomeek issue: Lots of people have been asking about my spelling of Plomeek, so I am going to answer it here. Plomik is how Plomeek is spelled in the Vulcan language, and I thought that since Spock is Vulcan I should spell it like that. If you REALLY REALLY object to that, I can change it, but I think that it makes sense for now. Obviously I can't write this whole thing in Vulcan....

Please Review, everyone! =)
