Well reading this, I actually kept thinking more of the TOS crew, though once the mention of the Narada and the evnts of Trek XI came up, I found it easier to shift focus back to the AOS cast in the roles. Still messes wiht my head AOS! ha!
Anyway, we are off on a mission to restore power to the ship - which is going to put Scotty and co. in a difficult position when the Romulans show up. This should make for some interesting developments.
And the Romulans you depict here, seem more Romulna in nature than Nero ever did with the sneaky plans and yet still sharing that lust for revenge.
Liking the use of other characters, though so far all Sulu has done is smile. Maybe that's why I keep picturing George Takei in the role so far. hee, hee.
A nice set up for the story, very quickly setting the stage for some fireworks.

I (and the author) dived immediately into the storyline, getting us into the setting of just after Trek XI and the plot, which is now thick as a piece of the Earth's crust.
Scotty's accent is familiar with anyone who's watched the Original Series, and I absolutely love the part where Ensign Gaila is trying to listen to Scotty and his similes and sayings, but seems to not get over the fact of the "sexiness" of his engineering knowledge.
I can't wait to read the next part, and I'm wondering: Do Gaila and Scotty end up in a relationship?
