Stuck In A Turbolift With A Vulcan
All funny things must come to an end…not really
20 min later…
Maija closed her eyes in frustration she had had enough of everything, she was filthy, sick and her hair had really begun to sponge up even more than usual. Spock was busily working at the control panels but to no avail.
" Spock, what happened?" Mc Coy said in his grouchy southern voice. Spock did not answer but continued to work. McCoy rolled his eyes and looked over at Maija.
" You missed your physical last month miss." McCoy said as the lieutenant's name became familiar to him.
" No I didn't you must have me mistaken with someone else." She said curtly.
" Don't try and pull a Spock on me Lieutenant."
" Doctor, honestly, have a little compassion. Is that all you can think about at a moment like this." Maija said carefully choosing her words.
" No, actually I am hungry." McCoy said.
" Get yourself some chicken soup from the conveniently placed food generator by the transporter pad controls." Maija said sarcastically.
" Don't start smart mouthing me."
Maija opened her eyes wide, displaying false innocence. McCoy glared at her.
" Look I don't know about you two but I'm getting my self out of here." Maija said getting up and pulling down her shirt.
" How pray tell do you plan to do this?" Spock voice cam from below one of the panels.
" I'm taking a shuttle." She said as she turned to leave.
" Now wait just one # minute, there has to be a rule against that." McCoy said angrily.
"Yes there is…" Spock began but was cut off.
" I think I have a good reason for doing it regardless of the rules." She said turning to the door.
" Do you even know how to pilot one? Will the hangar even open to let you out?" McCoy said.
" That's my problem, besides I can always use the auto pilot." With that said she pushed the door apart and went out.
" You don't really think she'll go through with it? Do you?" McCoy said.
Spock stood there in silence; technically if the ship were literally not functioning she wouldn't be able to get out. However, this Maija proved to be slightly crazy.
" No I don't think she will." Spock said uneasily.
McCoy ran after her and soon Spock followed.
" There is no logic to any of this." Spock said as he ran along side McCoy.
" Why?" McCoy said panting.
"Did you tell Jim where you would be?"
McCoy remained silent.
" I see." Spock said with the minimal amount of irritation that he could.
" Where did she go?"
" She's probably taking the ladders to get down to the hangar, I doubt she'll go by turbolift." Spock said.
" I don't feel like climbing down 14 levels. That's insane!" McCoy said trailing after Spock.
" Not to be cruel to the lieutenant, but she may be." Spock said getting over to one of the ladders.
" She couldn't be down that fast could she?" McCoy said gasping for air.
Spock looked down, but saw no trace of Maija. He shook his head and began to ascend down the ladder, with McCoy coming in swearing.
" Spock, there was no way you could have fixed that transporter pad?"
Spock remained silent refusing to admit to failure.
Maija been busy at the ships controls, she was certain that as soon as the thrusters were turned on the doors, no matter what would have to be opened. And if everything went according to plan the doctor and commander would be joining her shortly.
Just then the shuttle door lifted open and in crept Spock and McCoy.
" Nice of you to join me. I knew that both of you would be concerned with me." She said.
" We had to you can't pilot a shuttle just with autopilot." McCoy said, expecting her to move out of the pilot's chair.
" You see that's just what I said to get you down here, I am a licensed pilot." She said curtly, " strap on your seatbelts. In the words of the famous Bette Midler, this is going to be a bumpy ride."
Spock, being the control freak that he was, was about to protest, but Maija had already turned on the thrusters.
" Pshhh, welcome to Maija's space ways, our next destination will be wherever the crap I want, please keep you hands to yourselves and enjoy the flight." Maija said.
She gracefully pulled out of the hangar, the doors opened upon command, and the stars were before them.
" We're out!" Maija said cheerfully.
" I believe you can make contact with the space base."
Maija nodded and reached for the controls.
Then all heck broke loose. The shuttle trembled violently as a phaser struck it.
" What the was that!" McCoy said holding on to his seat.
This is Starfleet command stop your shuttle you are all under arrest for stealing Starfleet property…
" No you don't understand!" Maija yelled into the speaker.
Stop the craft now!
" You should probably pull over miss." McCoy said tersely, but Maija was frozen to the panel continuing to go at a great speed as the shuttle was being bombarded.
Spock got up quickly to the speaker, " Starfleet this is Commander Spock."
….Shkeioksdnlasodnkdflsdkf…pwi294832ndfsamc/…/../..
"They knocked out our communications system." Maija said angrily.
" Just stop it!"
" I Can't!" Maija said aptly trying to dodge the incoming phaser power.
" So are we just going to spiral off into space until Starfleet decides to blow us up!" McCoy said.
" Not if I can help it, Spock try and get our communications back on line." Maija yelled over the loud eruptions of sound.
" Are there any planets around we can just land on?" McCoy said
" Legally? I doubt it!" Maija said.
" Lieutenant communications are not fixable at the present moment." Spock said, " I suggest you do as the doctor says, regardless of what may happen."
" There is one federation planet just five sectors from where we are." Spock said.
" That'll have to do." With that said Maija engaged into warp speed and left the attacking fed ships behind.
The planet Jausen appeared as a huge yellow orb with splotches of green and blue upon it. It was a sparsely populated planet with a few federation scientist and some small colonies. It was basically the Alaska of that particular solar system.
" This all could have been avoided." McCoy said.
" Shut up!" Maija said looking away from the controls to look at McCoy and Spock.
" I swear if I here another word from…
" Lieutenant." Spock said in a warning tone.
" I'm not done, I swear I….
" Lieutenant!" Spock yelled out, Maija had ignored the fact the ship was going to land and now was on a collision course into the planet. She quickly turned her back and tried to regain control.
The ship seemed to spiral downward as it passed the atmosphere of the planet.
" I'm so sorry about all of this!" Maija yelled as she tried as hard she could to bring the ship back.
Her attempts paid off, the shuttle slowed down and instead of crashing nose down the ship hit the surface belly down and stopped after a few miles of hitting the surface.
The interior of the ship was completely messed up.
Maija sat slumped on her chair near the control pads, McCoy did the same, and Spock was the only one who had remained conscious, but was too shaken up to talk.
" Ouch." Maija uttered as she slowly lifted her head. " Oh my gods I killed them!" Maija said hysterically.
"No you didn't, " Spock said hoarsely.
" I'm so sorry! Are you okay?" Maija said trying desperately to get out of her seat.
" No are you?"
" I can walk so yeah, what about the doctor?"
" I feel like a million bucks." McCoy said quietly.
" I might as well see where we landed." Maija said as she opened the door.
Miles and miles of desert lay out across her field of vision.
This can't be! No, stranded in a desert, with a Vulcan and that doctor…
" NOOOOO!"
