At that moment the Enterprise reclaimed her own.

Ker Kaseme let out a terrified squeal as the gray walls of the cargo transporter room materialized around him. His face ashen, he clutched Kirk's arm and began to jabber incoherently. Kirk shook him off.

"Later," he growled in Kyrosian. Kaseme gobbled in terror, then fainted. Kirk caught him and lowered him to the deck. McCoy, who was waiting for Kirk, took he little man.

"Status report," Kirk said, his voice showing deep concern for his wounded officers.

"They're in surgery now," McCoy replied. "Mbenga's lands could bring a statue to life. I waited here for you, to let you know."

; Kirk nodded his thanks. McCoy went on. "I'll take Caserne to sickbay and load him with sedatives. He won't remember a thing."

; Scott came up to Kirk. "The poor divil. We've icared the living daylights out of him."

Kirk grinned for the first time that day, and said, "I'll bet those hillmen took off like scalded cats when we earned up right before their eyes."

"Well," Scott said, "if Mr. Spock can arrange a miricle for his people, I guess we can, too." ; Kirk's grin flicked off as he stepped toward the transporter console and stabbed the button on the communicator panel.

"Bridge, this is the captain. What the hell was the idea of changing orbit?"

CHAPTER TEN

Captain's log Stardate 6725.1

Investigating the orbit change, I have learned that Mr. Spock told Lieutenant Sulu to follow his orders or he'd destroy the trilithium crystals at once.

I cannot fault Sulu for his action; we still have three and one-half days left in which to retrieve the crystals.

After that, it won't matter any more.

Kirk stood at the side of one of the diagnostic beds in the sickbay, looking down at Lieutenant Dawson's sleeping form. He glanced at the indicators on the Fein-berg panels above. He nodded in satisfaction as, one-by-one, he checked the readouts.

"He looks a hell of a lot better than I expected him to," he said.

"We got him here just in time," said McCoy. "He'll be back on his feet in a few days."

"And Sara?"

"Almost as good as new," said a weak voice from the other side of the sickbay. Kirk turned and went quickly over to another bed on the other side of the room.

Ensign George, face pale but eyes alert, gave him a wan smile. "They didn't really damage the plumbing," she said. "And Dr. Mbenga did such a nice job of microsurgery that I won't even end up with a scar as a souvenir." She gestured to her exposed abdomen, and Kirk saw the flesh-toned antiseptic patch on her. "He says I'll be fit for duty sometime tomorrow."

Kirk smiled and patted her shoulder. "How about the rest?" the captain asked, turning to McCoy.

"It was touch and go with several of themthose hand weapons leave nasty woundsbut we didn't lose one."

Kirk let out a long sigh of relief. "After the way I fouled up down there, that's at least one thing I don't have to feel guilty about.
