Mental II

There were two Kirk's in Spock's dream, one resembled the Kirk he had seen in the transporter, and the other was the one he had known for a year. They were sitting down in different chairs across from him. Logically this has to be a dream. They both had the same grin and they sat differently. Jim was sitting up straight. Kirk? Kirk was sitting inproperly, back slouched, and he looked otherwise fine. Too fine.

It was as if nothing had ever happened in the past year to Kirk.

Kirk looked over toward Jim.

"Can I tell him now?" Kirk asked.

"It is about time." Jim said.

Kirk turned his head in the direction of Spock.

"Spock, meet Admiral Jim," Kirk said. "He has been helping me . . . a lot."

"Admiral Jim?" Spock asked.

"I am his counterpart," Jim said. "And this is very real." Jim looked over toward Kirk. "In your dream, though," Kirk's grin had turned into a smile. "We are only carrying this conversation due to the sudden psychic link that has been forged earlier than expected. I am the Jim ingenious to Spock Prime."

"So you are Kirk Prime." Spock said.

"Yes." Jim said.

"How long did it take for your link to be made, Admiral?" Spock asked.

"Three years," Jim said. "You know. . . For being a Spock, the only recognizable feature is those brown eyes of yours."

"In short," Kirk said. "The Vians brought him into my head and he was briefly in control. Tell Bones I am fine. Don't have to worry about me."

Jim nodded.

"He is still alive because of my personal experience with being on the run from some alien government," Jim said. "Did that a lot with Spock on some of our missions on alien planets."

"And you never died in those instances?" Spock asked.

"There were many miracles our Scotty could pull." Jim asked.

"Admiral," Spock said. "Were you and McCoy my counterparts T'hy'lara's?"

Jim appeared to be disgusted.

"Are you kidding me?" Jim said. "A threesome? No." He shook his hand. "Bones is a straight man."

"Threesome," Kirk said, amused. "I never done that before."

Jim appeared to be horrified.

"Please don't picture what I think I am seeing." Jim said.

"You are seeing it." Kirk said, earning a shudder from his counterpart.

"Fascinating," Spock said. "Sharing the same mind."

"Look, Mr Spock," Jim said. "I only know of T'hy'lara because of a Vulcan mated to two men and my Mr Spock had to explain what it meant. I knew the variation T'hy'la by heart by then but hearing it was dumbfounding."

"I was able to record and change the perception of the event occurring that which,Doctor McCoy and I, were able to see," Spock said. "It took general editing and the usage of my our memories to make a clear coherent video. We have seen your current state, Jim, where else you will need medical attention." Kirk shifted up forwards in the chair. "You could have called us for help but you did not. McCoy and I were able to see your situation due to the same link we share with you. This did not apply to the captain as he had not been around you as long as we have. Logically, due to this profound link we are soulmates in this reality unlike the admirals." Jim shook his head lowering it down. "I have yet to explain what it means to share this link to Doctor McCoy."
