when all else fails...

Characters: Uhura, anyone who feels like helping a poor lost soul (just don't tell her that)
Content: yet another member of the Enterprise crew lands in Manhattan, and she is in no way pleased about it
Location: outside of Times Square Studios
Time of day: close to midnight
Warnings: this is not a drill?

This... wasn't right.

Uhura opened her eyes, unsettled by the sense of displacement she felt. She had been working late on the bridge - another one of Kirk's ideas had gotten them in a bit of trouble, although it had been interesting to watch him and Spock argue over the decision to leave the Enterprise in the orbit of that strange planet. The resulting backlash had put everyone on edge, and it was only with sheer force of will that Uhura had ignored the boys and gone back to work.

Had she fallen asleep? She couldn't remember. Not very professional of her if she had. But even if she had closed her eyes for a moment, this didn't warrant any sort of... had Scotty been experimenting with his teleportation devices again? Even if he had, this had to be outside of his knowledge. They had been far, far away from Earth when that incident had occured - but this was New York City.

"Damn it all," Uhura cursed, climbing to her feet from where she had unceremoniously fallen to the ground and dusting off her red uniform and shivering. Of course. To add insult to injury, it was cold.
