As Commander Spock finished the report on the damage from what Uhrua had dubbed a 'tIn logh gho Doch', Captain Kirk pondered two things. One, were things like this going to be common, and two, why was the Klingon name for a big swirly thing in space being used instead of one from a Federation species?

"So, the engines have shut down totally and we will not be able to arrive at MacGuffin VII in time to deflect the gamma ray burst that will strike the colony,  which thanks to the bunkers will not harm any of the colonist but will destroy the unprotected terraforming equipment there, setting back Federation colonisation in the sector for months..."

"It would seem so," Spock said.

"Mister Chekov, what are your results?"

"All personnel aboard the wessel have replied, Captain, and in response to your query, 100% of the crew agree that spatial anomalies wery much suck."

"On that note, Captain, I must ask, why is that a standard crew opinion survey query?"

"I didn't hack that one in. I think it really is a default one," Kirk admitted.

"Fascinating."

"But we face a more troubling matter here, Spock, in nine hours the gamma ray burst will arrive, and we will arrive at best moments late... Aha, got it. Bridge to Engineering, Mister Scott, we need this ship to reach MacGuffin VII within eight hours."

"Captain, ye cannae change the laws o' physics, we need at least a half-hour to restart the engines and even at top speed it'll take us over eight hours! We were barely arriving in time before..."

"Yes, Mister Scott, but one point. You say I cannot change the laws of physics..."

" Help ma boab, another Captain's developed a God complex... Er, yes, Captain..."

"I cannot, but you can. And you have. Transwarp beaming for example. "

"Er... Well... Yes... But..."

"I'll let you get to work, Mister Scott. Bridge out," Kirk said.

"B-but Captai-"

Spock raised an eyebrow.

"Do you believe Mister Scott can actually perform this miraculous task?"

"If he doesn't they can't say we didn't try everything."
