Author's Note:
Hello everyone and another short but hopefully amusing chapter for you all. Thank you for your continued support and I hope you like the chapter.
I do not own Star Trek.
Escalation
Scotty was feeling very pleased with himself.
The prank he, Jim, Pavel and Hikaru had played on McCoy and Nyota in the never-ending prank war had been a classic and their reactions had been worth all the time and effort involved. He was feeling ever so happy when he returned to his quarters and he didn't think there was anything that could possibly dampen his good mood.
Until he opened his wardrobe that is.
He was met with the sight of all his beloved red shirts which had been dyed white. Now this was bad enough but when he pulled one out he discovered that the shirt had been dyed in such a way that it left a red cross stretching from neck to shirt bottom. This made the front of his shirt look just like the English flag and this alone sparked fury in the Scotsman. It was only further fanned by the fact that whoever had done this had destroyed his red shirts in the process and Scotty was very proud of his uniform. With his fury at raging heights Scotty slammed the shirt he was holding on the floor and focused all his anger on plotting his vengeance.
The next day was very unfortunate if you were a part of the Command Crew. Scotty did not hold back in his vengeance and since he didn't know who was responsible for his wrecked shirts he pranked all the likely suspects.
Nyota opened her station to find that it continuously responded to her using some very colourful language from a variety of dialects, McCoy's computer in his office insisted on giving him a very sarcastic commentary all day, Hikaru was attacked by most of the replicators on the ship, Pavel kept being nagged by the ships computer to brush his teeth, comb his hair and to always eat a balanced diet and Jim was randomly water bombed by various machines around the ship.
This led to a very smug Scotty and it escalated the ongoing prank war to a whole new level.
PS-I hope you enjoyed that and any chapter ideas are welcome.
