Court Martial Line-by-Line

[Athena28]

Hello, Welcome!

We recently completed the Threshold thread in the VOY forum!

For any unfamiliar with our "game," you are asked to post only a single line (defined as one character speaking without interruption by another character) per message. You can post as often as you like, but someone else must post a line in between your posts.

Our "rule" is that if the episode has a "To Be Continued..." on the end, it is done in a single thread, but if it's just an arc of related episodes (like the Dominion Occupation Arc on DS9 or the Xindi Arc on ENT), each episode is a separate thread.

Get ready for a story, here we go!

Captain's Log, Stardate 2947.3. We have been through a severe ion storm. One crewman is dead. Ship's damage is considerable. I have ordered a non-scheduled layover on Starbase 11 for repairs. A full report of damages was made to the commanding officer of Starbase 11, Commodore Stone.

[Stone's Office]

(Kirk is not in his usual gold shirt, but a green one with gold braiding.)
STONE: Maintenance Section Eighteen. The section is working on the Intrepid. Reschedule. The Enterprise is on priority one. That makes three times you've read it, Jim. Is there an error?

 

[Soaraway]

KIRK: No. But the death of the crewman.

 

[mattman8907]

STONE: Regulations, Captain. And the extract from your ship's computer log confirming this sworn deposition?

 

[Oddish]

KIRK: "Kirk to Enterprise."

 

[mattman8907]

UHURA [OC]: Bridge here. Go ahead, Captain.

 

[Soaraway]

KIRK: Where's Mister Spock with that computer log extract?

 

[Hopeful Romantic]

[Bridge]

UHURA: He should have been there ten minutes ago, sir.

(transcript: Court Martial)

(Great pick, @mattman8907!)

[Stone's Office]
KIRK: Kirk out.

 

[Oddish]

STONE: "It's a great pity. The service can't afford to lose men like Lieutenant Commander Finney."

 

[mattman8907]

[Bridge]

UHURA: He should have been there ten minutes ago, sir.

(transcript: Court Martial)

(Great pick, @mattman8907!)

A/N: Thanks. now back to the show.

KIRK: I agree. I waited until the last possible moment. We were on Red Alert. The storm got worse. I had to jettison the pod.

 

[Oddish]

(The two-man transporter alcove in the corner activates.)
KIRK: "What took you so long, Mister Spock?"

 

[Henoch]

SPOCK: Captain, I believe I

 

[mattman8907]

STONE: I'll take that.
(As he puts the data card into his computer, the door opens and a teenage girl dressed in blue enters.)

 

[Athena28]

KIRK: Jamie.

 

[mintjulep729]

JAMIE: There you are. I just wanted one more look at you. The man who killed my father.

 

[Soaraway]

KIRK: That's not so. He was my friend.

 

[Orac]

Jamie: Your friend? You hated him all your life! That's why you killed him, you murderer! You murderer! You murderer!

 

[May 20]

STONE: Mister Spock, would you please?
