"Beam us up? What do you mea-" But Mal was cut short when everyone around him began to disintegrate. Before they knew it the crew of Serenity found themselves standing, or in River's case laying, in the transporter room of the U.S.S. Enterprise. Jim was the first one to speak.

"Scotty!" he slapped the back of a man in a red shirt.

"Meet our new passengers. We're going to help them fix up their ship. Think you can do it?"

"Of course, Captain. Won't be a problem."

"Great! We'll pull their ship aboard and then we can get to work." A few moments later, a fairlt angry looking man in a blue shirt stormed in.

"Jim! What the hell was that!? You could have gotten yourself killed!"

"It was just a misunderstanding, Bones. We're fine."

"Fine!? Jim you were just-"

"I apologize for interrupting, doctor, but I believe that there is a young girl that may require your assistance." Spock gestured to River, who was still unconscious. Bones looked back at Jim with an angry look.

"You're not getting out of this one, Jim. We'll talk later." Bones then went and collected River. He was just about to leave when Simon spoke up.

"Excuse me. May I come with you? I'm a doctor, I can help."

"You look a little young to be a doctor to me, but an extra set of hands is always appreciated. Follow me." With that Simon, Bones, and River headed out to Medbay.

. . .

Jim turned his attention back to the newcomers.

"Well then. If you'll follow me, we'll get you all settled in. Oh, and by the way, welcome aboard the U.S.S. Enterprise."
