101. Power

"So what's the plan Jim?" McCoy questioned his voice low as he briefly glanced over his shoulder. At the moment Trelane was forcing Chekov to play music while he danced with Uhura much to Scotty's anger. The only thing keeping the Scotsman from getting killed was Sulu's firm hand on his shoulder. Frowning Jim crossed his arms over his chest and sighed quietly. To be honest, he didn't have any idea on what his next move should be; because as much as it annoyed him to admit, Trelane had a point. Even if they somehow managed to get out, he had seen what lay beyond their captivity, he couldn't subject his crew to that toxic environment that would kill them in a matter of minutes.

"We have limited options and we are still unsure of the extent of Trelane's power," Spock stated. Harry glanced at the being that danced with his friend before focusing back on their little pow wow group. He had an idea and if it would save his friends, he was willing to try it but he wanted to run it by Jim first. Softly he spoke up, "I… may have a solution."

Focusing on the wizard Jim questioned, "What?"

"The only way we have a chance of getting out of here is fighting power with another power…," he trailed off a bit, his eyes conveying his meaning. The three men tensed while Teddy gripped his father's hand. Leaning closer McCoy hissed, "Are you sure?"

"I think it's our only option right now," Harry shrugged, "Besides, if it means keeping all of you safe I don't care about my secrecy."

"But will you be safe?" Spock asked, concerned for Harry's security.

"I'll be fine, it wouldn't be the first time that someone's tried to seriously harm me and I fought in a war," Harry assured stroking Teddy's hair, "Just keep everyone together and I'll do the rest." The men nodded in understanding before they moved over to Sulu and Scotty while Harry made his way over to Chekov. Placing his hand lightly on the young Russian's shoulder, he let his magic flow through him releasing the control placed on him. Chekov blinked as he stopped and glanced up at Harry who nodded over to the others, pushing him away.

Realizing the music stopped, Trelane paused in his dance and frowned at Harry, "And what exactly are you doing Dr. Black?"

"Shutting down this farce," Harry scowled as he walked over pulling Uhura away from the man, "You will cease your stupidity and let us go. The universe doesn't revolve around you Trelane and we have business to attend to so you will release us."

"Oh? Do you think you can make me?"

"I can and I will because no way am I going to stand and let you subject my friends to your whims. And I'm certainly not going to be late for my own wedding so release us now Trelane!"

"Seems I still have manners to teach you," Trelane sneered as he raised his hand, but Harry was quicker. Flicking out his wrist he shouted, "Immobulus!" The crew gaped in awe as Trelane flew backwards hitting a wall, his body stiff as if bound. Without missing a beat, Harry walked over to another wall, "Bombarda!"

They ducked as the wall blew out showering glass and debris everywhere. Showing no hesitance, Jim plucked up Teddy into his arms and rushed out spurring the others to follow. They were surprised to find a lush garden surrounding them but didn't take the time to admire it as they took cover in the foliage. Handing off Teddy to Spock, Jim glanced around before focusing on Harry, "Think we're safe?"

"Probably not for long, you should contact the Enterprise now," Harry advised his eyes narrowed as he scanned the area. Nodding Jim reached to his belt and pulled out his communicator, flicking it open, "This is Captain Kirk contacting USS Enterprise, come in Enterprise. Do you read me?"

"I've told you already Kirk, no one can save you," Trelane interrupted appearing before them as he dusted himself off. Focusing on Harry, he grinned as he pointed his finger, "You my good sir, you are becoming quite intriguing. You actually caught me off guard!"

"Yay for me."

"Tell me, how exactly did you manage to bind me like that?"

"Like I would tell you," Harry frowned. Trelane tilted his head, "Is that a challenge? Are you challenging me?"

Harry snorted, "You wouldn't be much of a challenge. You're nothing but a child when it comes to your power, you have no discipline."

"How dare you! I'll show you!" Trelane thundered, waving his hand. Everyone gave a startled cry as Harry suddenly disappeared, Jim and Spock being the loudest. But their fear was cut short as Harry reappeared with a loud crack, coughing slightly but otherwise unharmed. Glaring, the wizard held out his hand, "Incendio!"

Trelane jumped back as fire launched itself at him. Disappearing, he reappeared a moment later torn between shock and glee; his excitement finally won over as he clapped his hands while laughing happily. It was obvious he was enjoying himself much to the annoyance and disgust of the crew. It was just a game to him and it made Harry angry. Nothing about the situation was humorous, it wasn't amusing in the least. Sneering he glared, "Yes, you certainly are a child if you treat this as some sort of sport."

"Still foolish enough to insult me are you? You must be pretty confident in your power," Trelane observed. Harry rolled his shoulders murmuring, "I'm just getting started."

Harry took stance and cast several slashing hexes along with binding curses and although Trelane easily avoided them, Harry never lost his control. When Trelane attempted to freeze his body figuring it was the best way to stop the wizard, Harry retaliated with Protego, raising a shield to rebound the effect. Although the power behind the assault was great as it pushed Harry back a few inches, which told the wizard that he couldn't let his guard down. But his reflexes were quick and accurate allowing the former soldier in him to shine through. Managing to knock Trelane away using an Expulso near his feet, he called over his shoulder, "Try contacting the Enterprise again! I'll keep him busy!"

"Oh no, you won't!" Trelane shouted growing angry. Once again he attempted to freeze Harry only for the wizard to shield again while adding another Incendio to drive him back. He barely paid attention to the group behind him as they worked to get Jim's communicator working, his focus entirely on Trelane. Minutes were ticking by and Harry was still going despite the strength growing behind Trelane's attacks. He wasn't going to allow any harm to come to his family therefore he refused to be overpowered.

"Enough is enough Trelane, why don't you just give up and allow us back to our ship so that we can get on with our lives?" Harry reasoned.

"No! I will not!"

"Yes you will or I will make you Trelane!"

"I've had enough of your insolence! You will obey me!" Trelane raged as he summoned a sword. The blade gleamed in the light catching the crew's attention and instinctual fear gripped their hearts. Trelane charged raising his weapon high but Harry stood his ground, his eyes narrowed. Teddy struggled in Spock's grip, crying out, "Dad!"

"Kid, move!" McCoy exclaimed. For a moment Jim and Spock felt as if their hearts dropped into their stomachs. Their instincts were screaming danger and the need to protect their lover pushed to the forefront of their minds. But it was muffled by the young doctor as he cried out, "Reducto!" And in a shower of glimmering metal the sword exploded while Trelane stumbled back in an off balanced manner, not having expected it.

"Usually I'm one to show mercy and rarely do I engage in physical violence, but you've pushed me too far Trelane. You've toyed with my friends, endangered my family and threatened their lives! For that I cannot forgive you and if I have to kill you in order to release us, then so be it," Harry growled as he raised his hand, his eyes glowing. Jim lashed out gripping Harry's arm in an attempt to stop him. He couldn't allow Harry to kill someone, he knew that the wizard would come to regret it and his beloved didn't need more guilt to add to his consciousness.

"Cease this," a male voice boomed over head causing everyone to jump. Focusing to the sky, they watched as a pair of glowing orbs appeared and hovered over Trelane.

"What the hell?" Scotty gasped holding Uhura close.

"That is enough Trelane, cease your play and release them," the male voice ordered. Trelane frowned and shook his head, "No!"

"Trelane," a female voice said sternly, "This is twice that you have disobeyed us. Release Captain Kirk and his crew, they are not your toys."

"I don't wanna! You never let me have any fun!" Trelane whined as he stomped his foot, throwing a tantrum like a child. And suddenly the group realized that perhaps Trelane really was a child in the eyes of his species, whatever they were. The male voice interrupted, "You will do as we say, we will not repeat ourselves again."

"No! I had them! I finally had them!" But Trelane's voice began to grow quiet as he faded away. Frowning Harry glanced up at the orbs, "I'm guessing you're his parents."

"Forgive us great wizard, we have indulged him too much. He shall be properly punished."

"Yes," the male agreed, "We are regretful that once more our child has interrupted the life paths of you and your people Captain Kirk."

"This has happened before?" Jim questioned.

"Yes, in another universe although you were much older than you are now. Please forgive us, we shall place you back on your ship so that you may be sent on your way," the female commented. Jim shrugged, "It's fine I guess, kids will be kids. But thanks for the help."

"You are welcome Captain, may you and yours live long and prosperous lives," the male voice said. And like Trelane, the group slowly began to fade until they too disappeared, returning to their lives although it was no longer the same. Secrets had been revealed and soon, questions would be asked and answers would be sought.
