Careless Words
It was supposed to be a nice friendly planet; good weather, no obvious dangers they could pick up, benign fauna and flora and no hostile natives to try and kill them…or so they thought.
Jim and the entire away team were currently pinned down behind a natural rock formation taking cover from fire from archaic flintlock weapons being fired by native humanoids which the ship scanners insisted didn't exist. Well when he got back he was going to order a complete overhaul of the scanners because missing a native, sentient population with guns and a willingness to use them was a hell of an oversight. Though his team had their phasers the prime directive meant they didn't really want to use them and there were too many for them to take down anyway. Jim quickly checked on the away team; Spock was next to him and appeared absolutely fine, Hendorff was on his other side and only seemed to have a few minor bumps and bruises from their rapid retreat earlier, slightly behind Hendorff was another member of security, Lieutenant Morris if he remembered correctly, who again only seemed to have a few bruises, further behind was Ensign Shran who was an Andorian and was both Science and Medical, she was unharmed and treating the wounded arm of Ensign Rogers who was on the team as part of his science team side of work. Satisfied that apart from Rogers arm his team were still ok Jim turned his attention to Spock, "Spock, have you managed to get a hold of the Enterprise?"
"Negative Captain, our communications are somehow being blocked."
"Well can't you find someway to get a message through?"
"No Captain, we lack the sufficient technology and resources to do that."
Realising they were in big trouble Jim tried to make light of the situation to calm his anxious team, "Well at least things can't get any worse."
At that moment about ten Klingons materialised in front of them.
"AW C'MON!"
PS-So there we have it and just assume they made it out ok, I thought it was funnier to leave it where it is. Please let me know what you thought.
