"Scotty – we're pinned in! DO IT NOW!" Kirk popped up from behind the cargo crates and fired the rifle at the attacking Gorn. The creature collapsed after getting off a few rounds himself.

"Aye, aye, Captain," Scotty replied.

He dropped into a crouch and into cover. Spock did the same. They both waited for the familiar glowing energy spirals to surround them.

None did.

Spock looked at Kirk, confusion evident. With a frustrated sigh, Kirk clutched his phaser rifle in one hand. "Mr. Scott, you're not beaming…." he called in an annoyed, sing-song voice.

"Oh, yes, I aaaam…" Scotty replied. There was no mistaking the grin in his voice.
