Captain Spirk
Disclaimer: I am ordering my *own* Spock and Kirk with vanilla ice cream and chocolate sauce please.
Summary: McCoy gets in the know. Eventual K/S.
A/N: I *know* I said 3-4 chapters last posting but er, I kinda realised that I like to lengthen things and well, let's just say it'll finished when you see 'The End' eventually.
A very BIG thank you to all the reviewers who inspired me to continue!
To spork_pinto : That is *EXACTLY* the photo that inspired me! Ain't that HOT or what? They're not two-headed THANK GOODNESS! (XD)
Chapter Two: The Doctor Knoweth
Today had been a long and gruelling day for one Chief Medical Officer, Doctor Leonard McCoy. Thanks to the Klingon's super twitchy trigger happy fingers he was bombarded with A LOT of not functioning bodies all over his sickbay.
He had been covered up to his elbows with blood, sweat, tears and an extra dose of grumble.
He was barking orders all over Sickbay terrorising Sickbay crews with threats of intestinal disembowelment if they had dared as so much as display any form of incompetence.
So convincing was he that no one dared to even question how illogical such threat is.
Even the patients had been terrified by him.
Nurse Chapel had been the first casualties to the Doctor's foul mood. All she did was asked him if he needed extra hand to help with the tricky surgical procedure he was currently involved with.
Admittedly it was a rather stupid question to ask and ultimately the unfortunate Nurse had fallen victim to McCoy's infamous grouch attack.
It has been the poor girl's first mission aboard the Enterprise too.
In the end, there had been no fatal casualties although the Sickbay is currently holding a choir for the various symphonies of voices moaning and wailing in agony.
And now, after all those terribly long hours of darkness and despair, McCoy was proud to say that he and the Sickbay crew had done well.
The Doctor figured he has a caused for a celebration and had brought out his finest Saurian Brandy to savour.
He poured himself a small glass and had settled himself comfortably into his favourite chair to savour the drink when…
The intercom beeped followed by a frantic yell from Scotty.
'DR. MCCOY. GET YESELF TO THE TRANSPORTER ROOM NOW!'
God Damn IT!
Can't anybody drink in peace around here?
The Doctor had half a mind to ignore Scotty when he suddenly remembered that Scotty was in the transporter room to beam up the Captain and First Officer.
Uh oh.
McCoy has a bad feeling about this.
To say that Jim Kirk is not a happy camper would be a tremendous understatement.
At the moment, he was tired, annoyed and he has a smug Vulcan who is not only sharing a body with him but is currently reading his mind, feelings and exasperation.
All without permission too.
He had steadily been sending mental equivalent to a stern glare at the Vulcan as he felt the intense amusement Spock was projecting through the mind link.
Hard as he tried, he had been unable to decipher Spock's thought.
The heightened irritation that knowledge brought to him was proportional to the amusement Spock was feeling.
Obviously his First Officer is having a great time at his expense.
Somehow, Kirk had thought that Vulcan's are not one to take advantage of an unfortunate situation.
Apparently he was absolutely wrong.
He is extremely aware that Spock is so able to read whatever his thoughts are now like an open book.
Plus Scotty's open mouthed agape at him/Spock is very, very unnerving too.
After the intelligent response Scotty had displayed earlier for contacting Dr. McCoy, the Scotsman had since been reduced to the mutely shocked individual staring at him/Spock now.
Even though the Captain truly understood the reason for this unprofessional conduct (after all, it's not everyday that you get to witness such a freaky accident), it is still so very annoying and degrading and he deserves respect as a Captain DAMNIT…
Uh oh.
Kirk suddenly realised two things:
One: he was whining like a girl
Two: Spock obviously had heard everything
He tried to stop his train of thought immediately.
DAMNIT.
It doesn't help that his First Officer had chosen there and then to formulate a reply.
[Your reaction to the matter at hand Captain had been less than illogical]
[Why thank you Spock]
Really he couldn't stop the sarcasm even if he wanted to.
Spock was about to reply (Kirk can feel it in his mind) when a distraction in the form of a personnel in Blue Science Uniform entered the room.
'WHAT THE HELL?'
McCoy had strode into the room fully expecting a catastrophe (didn't that always occur when Kirk and Spock are around) and he was not to be proven disappointed.
'J-Jim? And that you Spock?' McCoy stuttered the moment he set eyes on him/Spock.
McCoy promptly joined Scotty in the Mute From Total Shock Fan Club.
Wow.
Jim felt an inexplicable pride in his ability to render the likes of Dr. McCoy speechless.
Beside him, inside him?- eh whatever-…Kirk felt Spock projecting the same feeling as he.
Well then.
At least Kirk realised that they do agree on something.
Somehow that realisation made him incredibly happy.
Spock was the one to formulate a reply to McCoy's amazed outbursts.
[Very good observation Doctor. I knew you had it in you]
That snapped the good Doctor out of his shocked stupor fast.
'I know that's you Spock!' he bristled.
Another wow.
Did Bones really know him that well as to enable him to make that deduction?
To Be Continued…
Gawd, I know there is no K/S and the good stuff yet- I do like them slow building, no? It'll be up and running in the NEXT chapter folks. So stay tuned!
