It was a tingle at the back of his mind, the kind that raised all the hair on his neck. He felt it and knew it was there before it even spoke. Yet it still somehow caught him by surprise which secretly annoyed Harry. For a moment, he heard Moody yelling at him in his head. Constant vigilance indeed!

"You show compassion and mercy to a being that would have surely killed you and your son. You surprise us greatly Harry James Potter," a voice stated. Harry turned to see a young boy standing among the rocks. It didn't take a genius to figure out he was a Metron.

"I don't really care if I surprise you or not. I just want off this rock and back on the ship with my friends and my son," Harry hissed.

"Perhaps there is hope for you and your race."

"Listen here mate, I don't care what you or your fucking race think of us and right now I'm resisting the urge to just AK you into oblivion for the shit you put us threw. What I did was a reflection of myself, no one else. Humans have free will, they make choices that reflect only on themselves and not on the race as a whole. Yet you come in here acting as if you're superior and toying with us as if we're an experiment. Who exactly died and made you god? We may be uncivilized to you lot, but at least we're honest! At least we don't try to be something we're not unlike you! So spare me your high and mighty speech and just put us back where we belong, on the Enterprise!"

The Metron appeared shocked by Harry's reaction and opened his mouth to speak. But deadly green eyes narrowed in a glare, daring him to speak. The Metron closed his mouth and suddenly they were back on the bridge, Teddy clinging to his hand. His uniform was torn, he was dirty and sweaty, but in one piece.

Jim immediately jumped up crying out their names but Uhura beat him to them. She hugged father and son, sobbing in relief that they were okay. Teddy hugged her back while Harry merely patted her back, murmuring that they were fine. That didn't stop McCoy from examining him along with Spock and Jim. The blond placed a hand on Harry's shoulder, offering a relieved grin, "Glad you're okay. Was nearly pulling my hair out with worry since we couldn't figure out any way to contact you to see if you were okay."

Harry shrugged, "Well as you can see we're alive and in one piece."

"Does that mean… did you…?" Uhura hesitated.

"No," Harry replied, "I didn't kill him. I was going to, especially when he took Teddy hostage. But he managed to get away like the smart kid he is and in the end I spared his life. Then one of the Metron appeared complimenting me on my show of mercy. I mouthed off at him and here we are." Ignoring McCoy's prodding, Harry picked up Teddy and held him close.

"Well either way," McCoy grumbled, "You both need to go to sick bay so I can patch you up. God only knows what kind of diseases you might have picked up being down there."

Harry rolled his eyes, "Yes mother." Jim along with most of the bridge burst into laughter while Spock merely raised an eyebrow, his eyes holding traces of amusement. McCoy smacked his colleague over the head before walking to the lift with Harry following.

"Oh and Harry!" Jim called out. The wizard paused turning to face his captain. Said blond grinned widely, "Welcome home." Harry blinked before smiling back, his tired face lighting up with relief. It was good to be home.

And before you ask in case it wasn't clear the last few chapters, none of the crew witnessed the events that unfolded between Harry and the Gorn. In the original episode Spock and the others were able to watch Kirk toward the end, but since this is AU I took liberties. Can't have Harry's secret out yet now can we? Anyway! Review please! Thanks!
