All the crew was on the beach, along with their guests. Ryu and Ash were among them. The captain got an evil look in his eye. "I challenge you to make a sand structure. Bones rolled his eyes, "I've been making sand structures sense you've been in diapers, kid." "We'll see about that, old man!" Jim teased. "Ash, you will be my partner in crime for this exercise," Bones said evilly. Our resident deadite slayer nodded. "This should be fun!" "Indeed," said Spock. He and Jim were working together. Jim pulled out his phaser, than shot it as the go cue, and the rest began building.

Alright Ash, have a plan?" "Oh I do, doctor McCoy." "Let's begin." The 2 got sand, shaping it with their hands until motes and other such things were formed, McCoy had an idea so he made sand weapons, placing them on top of the castle. Ash built a treasury next to the castle, after all, people needed money in these depressing times. "Just don't build a sand banker," McCoy joked. Ash laughed good naturedly.

Jim, we should try building a planet out of sand", said Spock. He nodded at his first officer. "Ya know, that sounds like a cool idea! We're so going to win this." "Indeed", said Spock. And the 2 began to build.
The first thing that was built was the atmosphere, after that, the troposphere, and finally the mesosphere. Spock stopped. "Jim, What planet would it interest you to try building?" "Vulcan", Jim said on a dare. The 2 began building the structure,, meanwhile Jim was working on a little house with sand people. When he was done, he carefully arranged the structure to be inside Spock's. "Is that a sand structure of my home and family", Jim? The captain nodded. "Can't have a planet without the people," he said. Spock nodded. "The sentiment is logical." When they were done with the whole structure, Jim rubbed his hands together. "Let's go tease Bones, his castle seems to be finished." "Jim, I do remind you that that would be cheating", said Spock. "You're no fun", Jim complained. "Indeed," Spock said. Fun is a rather illogical emotion, and Vulcan's do not do emotions", Spock said seriously, a little eyebrow quirking in that of a smile. Jim threw his head back in laughter.

"So I was thinking about a sand pagota?" Ryu nodded. "Sounds good to me. The two began to build.
I don't know how to describe a pagota building, but they began building more security measures, like a cannon system on the roof of the little Japanese structure. "Sword launcher", Sulu asked. "Ryu laughed, "Go for it!" The 2 began filling the cannon with little wooden swords, than used a sand dollar as a button, they pushed it… and the wooden swords popped out, headed for the little sand structure of Vulcan! "Hey, that's cheating!" Jim cried. "Suck it up, infant!" Bones deadpanned. They shot the cannon at Bones little structure, but Ash pressed the button on the roof of the little fortress, melting the swords with a sand flamethrower. "This, is, war!" Ash exclaimed, as the 2 began a back and forth duel of epic proportions.

After the duel, Jim blew the whistle, "Let's see who made the better sand structure." He went around and looked at everyone's work. The last thing he got to was the sand pagota. "What is that", he asked. "It's a sand structure from old Japan", Ryu said. Jim nodded at all the exquisite details. Povel and Scotty built a little sand babushka shop in the middle of a sand structure of Russia. "This is good, Keptain? Jim patted Povel on the back, it is, Chekov! "Zank you, Jim. He got to Bones structure than watched as Ash aimed a flag with the words, "We win!" at him. Jim laughed his head off at the castle, bank, and restaurants there was even a sand donut shop! "Alright, Winners of this challenge are Bones, Chekov, and Sulu's groups. "But Jim, what about the sand structure of Vulcan", Spock asked. "To be honest, don't care, although building it was fun, winning doesn't matter to me." Bones smiled, want to head to the seafood joint a bit of a ways from here?" "Sure! Everyone, disassemble your castles, we have a seafood place to go to! The groups watched as a wave came out of nowhere, sweeping the castles away. "In that case, never mind, let's go!" Jim said laughing.
