Title: Rhyme Schemes

Summary: The story of Jim and Spock's relationship…told through limericks.

Disclaimer: Quite obviously, I do not own Star Trek or any of its tasty bits.

Please note these limericks will eventually tell the story of the movie so check back for new chapters ^-^

Red Shirts: A Legacy

In Star Trek, there is such thing as fate

To fans, consistency is great

And to no one's surprise

The red shirt up and dies

For deploying his parachute late.


Jim and Sulu were engaged in the fight

But 'twas dear Sulu that stole the limelight

For his retractable sword

Has the ladies assured

He'll be coming and going tonight.


So the boys' kicked some Romulan ass

But, oh no, how to stop the drill fast?

So they each pulled out a gun

To the other setting, not stun

And blew apart that chain in a blast!


Spock beamed down to the surface below

In a rush to have his family in tow

He made a grab for his mother

As a column crushed another

But, alas, just a second too slow.


Us ladies in the theater sighed

As Spock stepped off the platform dry-eyed

Our Vulcan, strong and brave

But his anguish we still craved

From those lips, no cries would be cried.


That seems like the proper, horrible place to leave the poems for now, with our dear Spock in shock.

If you do not review, a seagull will lay eggs in your stomach cavity.
