Warnings: Slash, Crossover (Doom), medical ickiness, spoilers (Doom, Star Trek), Language, Angst, Questionable Science
Summary: McCoy deals with too many things at once, while Kirk finally figures out his feelings for the doctor.
Author's Notes: I had a great day today, saw a trio of dolphins that reminded me of Spock, Kirk, and McCoy!
Chapter Five: Reunions
Bridge, USS Enterprise; 48 hours later
"Captain, we are being hailed," Uhura announced.
"On-screen," Kirk ordered.
Moments later a somewhat familiar face appeared on the main view screen.
"This is Doctor James Matherson of the USS Sylar."
"And I am James T. Kirk of the USS Enterprise," Kirk said.
Matherson started at this.
"Jim!?" he asked, sounding like McCoy. "Is it really you?"
Kirk scowled at Matherson. Of course he knew who he was!
"I should never go blonde," muttered McCoy from behind Kirk-when did he get on the Bridge?
The doctor had spoken too softly for anyone but Kirk to have heard him, but Matherson tensed in response to the mutter anyways.
"And you must be Doctor Leonard H. McCoy," Matherson remarked, eying McCoy as he spoke.
"Yeah, that's me," McCoy affirmed. "And why are you here?"
"I am here to take Ambassador Spock back home, Doctor McCoy," Matherson replied.
'Ambassador Spock?' Sulu mouthed to Chekov.
"Why don't you come onboard, Doctor Matherson," Kirk suggested. "We have a lot to discuss."

Main Conference Room, USS Enterprise
Samuel "Cupcake" Giotto, Enterprise's Chief of Security, personally escorted Doctor Matherson from the transporter room to the main conference room, where Kirk, Spock, Ambassador Selik, and McCoy were waiting.
As soon as Giotto had left the room, Matherson turned to Kirk.
But before he could even open his mouth to speak, Selik cut him off.
"Doctor Matherson, while you are here, you could discuss certain other events with your counterpart," the old Vulcan interjected.
Matherson scowled at Selik, but did not disagree with him.
"I probably should explain how I got here first, shouldn't I?" he inquired.
Selik nodded, and the others agreed.
"After the destruction of Romulus, I was visited by the most annoying of beings," Matherson remarked. "You probably remember him, Spock."
From the way the doctor said the name, it was clear he was talking to Selik.
"We have encountered many such beings over the decades, Doctor," Selik remarked. "You will have to be specific as to which one you are referring to now."
Matherson muttered something that sounded suspiciously like "green-blooded hobgoblin".
"Trelane," Matherson said aloud. "Trelane decided to come pay me a visit. Nearly blew my cover in the process."
Selik did not have any "fond" memories of the omnipotent trickster, and he would have shuddered, had he been more emotional, at the mention of Trelane.
"Why did he come visit you, Doctor?" Spock asked.
"Trelane wanted me to know what had happened to my Spock, and to some Romulan named Nero," Matherson replied. "He even helped me build a ship capable of traveling between these two timelines."
"At what cost, Doctor?" Selik asked.
"My forgiveness."
"Who is Trelane?" Kirk asked.
"A pain in the ass omnipotent being," Matherson replied.
"'Blow your cover'?" McCoy asked, more for his friends' benefit than his own, because he had already figured out who Matherson was.
Matherson frowned at McCoy.
"Surely you of all people would understand what I am talking about, Doctor McCoy," he remarked.
"Pretend that I don't," McCoy insisted.
"Do they know about you?" Matherson asked, indicating Spock and Kirk.
McCoy nodded.
"James Matherson is a false identity," Matherson informed Kirk and Spock. "My real name is John Grimm."
"Which makes you Ambassador Selik's Leonard McCoy," Spock concluded.
Matherson nodded.
"Fascinating," Spock mused.
McCoy and Matherson both rolled their eyes.
