WHAT: New people! Kirk and Spock save a couple of kidnapped Na'vi.

____________________

Captain James T. Kirk was so. Friggin'. Bored. He wanted to be out discovering things, or discovering things he could shoot at, or just shooting at things. He'd behaved relatively well lately, and that meant nothing really interesting ever happened. ...Ever. His crew seemed to be all comfy cosy on Metis, taking a break, taking bets on when Captain Kirk would start some shit around here already.

The Captain had sunk so low as to go shopping. With Spock. For, you know, souvenirs and that sort of thing. And, all right, maybe Jim was looking for a little bit of trouble, too. They were down in the less reputable part of the docks---needless to say, their jackets covered their Starfleet insignia. They didn't need to be attacked just yet.

So far, they hadn't seen anything blatantly illegal, until---

"Mr. Spock. Would you say those humanoids in that pen are part of the BDSM community, or would you call that involuntary auctioning?"

	Jim took his hand, his own disappearing for a moment under Jake's massive blue fingers. "Easy enough. I'm Captain Jim Kirk of the U.S.S. Enterprise." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Neytiri." Though she didn't offer her hand, Neytiri touched her forehead briefly in greeting. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Earth, huh." Jake considered this a brief moment. Then: "We need to get home," he said without further preamble. "We were brought here, wherever the hell this is, and we don't have a ship back." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"We'll get you back. Starfleet was officially involved about ten minutes ago; there's enough room on the Enterprise." Yes, journey to an alien world. "I'll need to contact Starfleet for clearance to enter Pandora's atmosphere. It might take a bit." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Pre-warp planets like yours are protected under Starfleet's Prime Directive," said Spock. "We are not to interfere with the natural evolution of your home world. However, given the circumstances and given Pandora's previous experiences with Earth, we have little choice. I'm certain there won't be a problem with clearance." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	navi_tsahik 2009-12-26 02:45 pm UTC (link)
	Neytiri cocked her head, considering this. "We have had interference before already. A few more Sky People will be nothing." She had her eyes on Spock; he was clearly the more competent one. "If you betray us, we will kill you. And it will not be swift. If you need one of us to talk to your Star Fleet for your clearance, we will do so." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Certainly," said Spock, nodding once. That was that. "Are you in need of food? A comfortable bed? At the moment we have nothing to accommodate your size, but we can arrange quarters for you aboard the Enterprise." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	navi_tsahik 2009-12-26 04:26 pm UTC (link)
	Neytiri was quiet for a moment before she nodded. "We accept." Jake was clearly more familiar with humanity in general, Neytiri was the leader, here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	emotelogic 2009-12-26 04:29 pm UTC (link)
	"Very well." Spock glanced to Jim. "Captain, I will go ahead to make the necessary arrangements and to request clearance from Starfleet. Are you planning on immediate departure or completing our business here?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Thank you, Mr. Spock. I have a couple more meetings I have to get to; I'll have us set up for video conferences after that. It shouldn't take more than a few days." The Na'vi had stayed away from home this long. A couple more days wouldn't kill them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	emotelogic 2009-12-26 04:34 pm UTC (link)
	"Yes, Captain." Spock headed off without another word, stepping over the body of one of the stunned men and dropping the pilfered keys. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"So we stay here a little while," said Jake. He didn't sound pleased, but it was better than being held captive. They were going on charity; they couldn't be picky. "Where is here?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"You're in the Eastland Docks on Metis," Jim explained. "It's mostly a port planet; there are plenty of non-humans hanging around. Unfortunately, it's not really close to Pandora." Sorry. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	toruk_makto 2009-12-26 04:44 pm UTC (link)
	"Of course it isn't," Jake muttered, chuckling to himself. "Well. Might as well explore while we can." His tail twitched and he looked over Jim in order to look out toward the street. The bustling port wasn't exactly what he was used to these days. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Neytiri seemed reluctant at best, uncomfortable at worst. She laid her hand on Jake's arm, touching her forehead to the back of his head. But she wasn't arguing, which probably meant she would follow him wherever he decided to go. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Jake's hand covered hers. It was obvious that he knew she didn't want to go explore, but didn't want to be alone. They were in unfamiliar territory. The Na'vi didn't travel to other worlds. The Sky People had visited from Earth, but no one else had been to Pandora before.

"Thank you. Again," Jake said to Jim. He shifted uncomfortably, running a hand down his chest. His captors had stripped him of his weapons and he was practically naked in the winter chill. It was cloudy now, and just starting to rain----just barely. "It's friggin' cold, is it always this cold?"

	"I think it's winter," Jim said. "Or it damn well better be." He did love the Enterprise's nice, comfortable temperature control and lack of weather. "There's gotta be a merchant around here who sells something your size. We'll go make sure you don't get hypothermia and---you drink? We'll get something to drink." Or Jim can get a drink without you. Either or. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Drink? Yeah, of course I----drink? As in booze?" Jake chuckled, ran a hand over his mouth. "I haven't had a drink in... wow. Uh. Yeah, we could use some robes, and I could use a drink." He glanced back at Neytiri. "What about you?" he asked in their language. "We'll find something warm." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	At the mention of being cold, it was more apparent that Neytiri was standing close because she was comfortable, and because it was freezing for them. Neither of them were even wearing a shirt, Neytiri's breasts covered only by some sort of necklace. "I'll take your lead. I don't want you to freeze to death out in the open."

"Indoors will be warmer. I can already tell you won't like it here. Just stay by me." Jake slid his arms around Neytiri but it wasn't going to do much to keep her warm. He lightly kissed her ear and rubbed his hands quickly over her arms, hoping the friction would do some good.

Jake nudged her reassuringly with his nose and then lifted his head to look at Jim. "We don't need much, just a couple of big blankets, put some sleeves in, and then after being trapped in that cage for however long, I could definitely use a drink."
