Captain Kirk, during the original five years mission

(Note : this story is based on a fafiction Star Trek : Beyond the male horizon by KeikoJade)

The USS Enterprise is flyng into deep space. Her destination : Valdera Prime.

Captain'Log , stardate 4556.6. Acting commander and science officer Spock speaking. Captain Kirk was **** to take a shore leave at Dr. Mc Coy's orders. He has been convinced to rest at Valdera Prime. A planet we visited once and in results of some circumstances, we have to do our duty as female versions of ourselves for a brief time. Captain Kirk agreed to these vacations. But after a few days, Starfleet ordered us to take back Captain Kirk. We are now on the way back to the Valdera system. We tried to contact them but communications seems to be erratic.

• Chekov, do you remember how cute you were as a woman ? asks Sulu at the helm.
• I'm not sure if I should answer that, says Chekov.
• Oh, don't worry about it! It's not many of us have to live as women, laughs Uhura.
• Status report, asks Spock.

Uhura hands him a report. Spock read the information on it. The Valdera system was once cut from the rest of the galaxy because of a space anomaly. But now, the first planet is a popular tourist zone in the Federation of United Planets.

• I just have established communication, sir, replied Uhura. Captain Kirk is ready to be beam aboard. M. Spock, the message says we should expect... a surprise.
• Understood, replies Spock. This message is odd the vulcan says to himself, as he goes to the turbolift and then the Transportation room.

Inside, Dr. Mc Coy is already here to welcome his friend. At the console, the officer on duty, Lt Kyle.

• I've been notified of this so-called « surprise », says Mc Coy to Spock. I don't know why but I have a bad feeling about this.
• Energize, says Spock to Kyle as he turns his look on the teleporting device.

A human form appears, but the officers finds out that is not a male form, but a woman's. She seems young, well formed. As she is completely beamed up, they see that she is wearing a female gold command uniform, with the skirt, captain insignia on her arms and the Enterprise logo on her chest. And even its' a woman, her face and look can't fool anyone. She is the captain of the USS Enterprise.

Spock doesn't says anything. He just lifts his eyebrow as a sign of perplexity.

• What the... !!! shouts Mc Coy. Jim, is that you. ?

The female James T. Kirk simply smiles.

• Spock, Mc Coy, I have a good explanation. Permission to come aboard ?
