...One day later...
"How was the trip?" Picard asks.
"It was..." Kirk stops, unsure how to describe it. "Surprisingly fun."
Picard raises a brow.
"Fun?" Picard asks.
"It was a game," Kirk said. "To tell apart which Romulan is...." He stops. "It is not that easy to describe but if I had to describe it would be being observant like Sherlock Holmes."
The two resume walking towards the shuttle bay.
"He was light on you," Picard said. "And not so complex as Q usually is."
"What is a M?" Kirk asks.
"A lettter," Picard said.
Shatner shook his head.
"No," Shatner said. "A man. He and Q had a conflict...Q called him 'M'."
"That is...not surprising," Picard said. "I won't be surprised if there is a continuum for all the letters in the alphabet."
"That's what I thought at first," Kirk said. "Until Q told me there is two continuum's, the bad guys and the good guys. The bad guys are the M and the good guys are the Q."
"The Q being good?" Picard said. "I find it hard to believe they are good."
"Well, the way he explained it made sense," Kirk said. "The Q actually do good things you don't notice."
Picard thought about it.
"That is actually a good point," Picard said.
The two walk into the shuttle bay.
"The shuttle is ready," La Forge said. "It is the shuttle from the other Earth."
Picard and Kirk shook hands.
"I am glad you could revist a old friend," Picard said.
Shatner recalled his goodbye to Spock, "Goodbye,Spock....Live long and prosper." with his hand doing the iconic hand sign usually made by Vulcans. It was Nimoy who taught him how to do that during production in 'Amok time'. It was an interesting sign that brought Shatner's curiosity.
"Me too," Kirk said.
The handshake ended so Kirk gets into the shuttle.
"Is the coordinates in?" Kirk asks.
La Forge nods.
"You are all set to go," La Forge said.
Shatner presses a few buttons making the doors close. La Forge walks away from the shuttle then stops at the door. The wall to the shuttle bay opens up revealing space with endless stars everywhere. The shuttle backs out of the shuttle bay into open space. Picard is at the door watching it too.
Shatner turns the shuttle away, presses a button, and then he warps off.
"I am very surprised you were able to find Kirk," Picard said.
La Forge smiles.
"Me too," La Forge said.
The End.
