Captain's log: Our position, orbiting PSI 2000, an ancient world, now a frozen wasteland about to rip apart in its death rows. Our mission: pick up a scientific party below, observe the disintegration of the planet."
"You wanted to see me, Captain Kirk?"
T'Lora stood on the bridge looking at Kirk, feeling a little nervous. She was called out of the medical bay to the bridge, without any specific reason.
"Yes", Kirk smiled as he looked at her. "I hope your accommodations are to your liking."
"I appreciate you and the Star Fleet for allowing me to transfer to the Enterprise", she said. "I like the ship very much."
"That's good, nurse", Kirk smiled flirtatiously. "I hope you gain a successful career on the Enterprise."
"Thank you Captain", T'Lora responded ignoring his flirting.
This was her first time on a starship before not to mention the flagship of the entire Starfleet. She was so amazed on how everything was operating swiftly and cleanly. She felt a sense of security.
Meanwhile on the planet, Mr. Spock and Lt. Joe Tomalin were down investigating the dead dying planet that was going to break up at any moment according to the ships scanners. 10 minutes later Mr. Spock buzzed in to the bridge.
"Spock here. Do you read, Enterprise?"
"Affirmative", Kirk said sitting at his chair.
"All station personnel are dead.
"What caused it?" Kirk asked.
"Unknown, Captain. It's like nothing we've dealt with before."
T'Lora looked at Kirk stunned.
"What do you think captain?" she asked.
"I...don't know, nurse. I don't know, but this makes it worse. Now we have a new problem on our hands."
She looked at him worried. If this mission brought on a new problem, she hoped Spock and Joe were going to be okay. T'Lora hoped whatever killed the PSI 2000 crew wasn't going to harm Spock and Joe.
"You better go down to sick bay as needed, nurse", Kirk said sending her back to her duties.
"Aye sir", she nodded.
T'lora went down to sickbay seeing Dr. McCoy was there waiting. He had his arms crossed and looked impatient.
"Well, nurse did you enjoy the bridge?" he asked.
"Yes I did, doctor", she nodded.
"Good. Now I need you to assist nurse Chapel."
T'Lora looked at nurse Chapel, a woman with short blonde hair and a blue uniform like hers. She seemed to be nice. T'Lora hoped that she and nurse Chapel would be able to work without any problems. She gave her a friendly nod before heading to the supply area.
Nurse Chapel looked at T'Lora deceitful. She had heard the new nurse was a half-Vulcan. It looked like she was going to have some competition earning the affections of Spock. She sighed as she followed T'Lora. She really liked Spock, and after the disappearance of her fiancé, Dr. Roger Korby she had hoped she and Spock would be close.
"So you're T'Lora", Chapel said starting a conversation.
"Yes", T'Lora nodded. "It's a pleasure to work with you."
Chapel watched her with an eyebrow raised. She was acting way too polite for a half-Vulcan. She was practically the complete opposite of Spock. This was going to be interesting. Would Spock like Chapel or T'Lora? Chapel would have more a chance. She had been on the Enterprise longer. She knew Spock longer. Chapel knew she could get Spock first.
