Life at the USS Enterprise

Anywhere but THAT Place

After just finishing a class in the Do jang on the Enterprise, my Communicator beeped. "Stryder here, over?"

Kirk spoke in a rush, "Meet me, Mr. Spock, and Bones at the Transporter Room Stat! Bring the usual with you!"

I have been here for a few months now and this is the usual call I get from the Captain. I snatched my twin daggers, bow and arrow, and gun then ran to the Teleporting Room.

When I entered, I heard Kirk, Spock, and Bones having a small conversation.

"What is going on?" I questioned.

Kirk told me, "You will see when you get there. Scotty!"

Scotty got the Teleporting system ready when all of us stood when all four of us and another Red Shirt got on the device. A gold glitter surrounded us then we ended up obviously on a planet that looked familiar to me. I scanned the area then I realized where I was . . . I cursed in my native language- Elvish.

"What are we going there?! Anywhere BUT here in the Middle of nowhere land called Class V in the Dark Forest! Yeah, this is great!" I ranted, letting my blood boil as I walked ahead of the other four, my ears picking up the slightest sounds. I heard Captain shouting orders for Spock and the Red Shirt to stay together to explore in one direction while Bones when with Kirk.

Faintly in the distance, I heard footsteps that were light- too light. Within a few seconds, I heard a muffled scream, I ran towards the sound, seeing the Red Shirt that came with us a stream of blood coming out on the side of his neck, dead. My eyes narrowed, having a hunch on who did it. I heard a click, I instantly unsheathed my daggers that were on my back, twirled then around in my hands. I felt someone get behind me, sensing it was Spock.

I spoke quietly, "We must be on our guard."

"Agreed. this place seems to be-" Spock started to say then made the connection. "Come on, let's find the other two before they get hurt or worse. . ."

~ Meanwhile ~

Kirk and Bones were on edge after having five minutes of complete silence with someone following them from a few feet away.

"Jim, this person has been following us for the last five minutes. I'm checking my PADD for it but what its picking up is only plant life." Bones whispered to Kirk as they both continued walking.

Kirk quietly brought out his gun which was already in stun mode. They both kept walking until the person that was following them, leaped out of its hiding place while drawing out its sword, Kirk pushed Bones aside before it would hit Bones on the right shoulder. When Kirk was about to shoot, the person grabbed his wrist with one swift move and let it fly out of his hand. Meanwhile, Bones was getting out his gun. The person snapped its fingers, making it explode in his hands, thankfully, it didn't leave any burns behind. Just a few feet away, Spock and I saw what was happening. That was when we both ran quietly to the person then just when Bones was about to get hit in the stomach, I pushed him out of the way and blocked its sword with mine.

"Go ahead of me!" I shouted, hearing Kirk picking up Bones up to his feet.

"What about-" Kirk started to say.

"Go, now! I will hold this creature off! Call the Enterprise to see if they can beam us up Captain, Go!"

Bones and Kirk looked at each other then ran in the opposite direction running past Spock. He raised an eyebrow then walked after them, leaving me to do my magic- well magic of fighting the creature, kill it off then catch up with the others. Both the creature and I held a fight, clashing daggers against sword. This person whatever it is, it was skilled, then again, so was I.
