*Scooby Doo Ending*
Spock shacked everyone's hand as he approached the transport pad. The senior staff was there except their captain. He couldn't say good-bye. Uhura followed behind him hugging everyone on her way to the pad. Len followed hugging all along the way too. Scotty had picked him up and twirled around. Keenser stood next to him. Once Len was back on the ground he turned to Keenser. Keenser was crying like everyone who had emotion was. He took the boy in his arms and held him tight.
"Miss you too." Len said. Keenser turned and handed him a ball of fur.
"For you." The ball began to purr.
"I told you not to feed that thing." Keenser shrugged. But as they watched Len hold it close and pet it they smiled. It was worth the extra 8 fur balls they now owned. Len stopped at the pad and looked at everyone. He knew someone was missing. But who.
"Len?" Uhura called from the pad. Len's one hand reached up and touched his necklace. That was who was missing. Guess he couldn't say good bye, Len thought. He let his hand fall from the necklace to take Uhura's. his new mother. She gripped it tight and him closer to his side. "You okay?"
"Yes." He squeezed the tribble closer to his chest. Spock put a hand on his shoulder. Len looked up and smiled. Spock smiled back. He was ready.
"Energize, Mr. Scott." Spock said. Scott nodded and performed his duty. Spock held up his hand in the Vulcan good bye as they began to shimmer. Kirk ran into the room. They turned to him. But they were gone. His staff looked to him. He fell back against the wall. His nerves giving out. He had lost it. On the Enterprise he could control it but how could he down their.

Two Years Later.
His tour of captain over he went to Vulcan.
Spock Prime greeted him.
"Hello JIm."
"Hello Spock."
"How are things?"
"Good and you?"
"Very well." Spock P began to lead him toward his hover car. "My nephew is in the car waiting for us."
"Nephew?" A head of black hair popped up in the window.
"Uncle." The boy cried happily. Spock P smiled as he approached the car.
"Yes, my nephew." Spock P opened the door and got in. Kirk looked at the boy. He looked to be about 5 - 6 ish now. "Bones I believe you know Jim."
"Hi." He stared at him then recognition passed. "He gave me this ring." He held it up proudly. Kirk choked. He still wore it.
"How are you're parents?" Len looked to Spock P then to Kirk. Spock P answered.
"Spock is in Pon Far and they are mating. Bones is staying with me while they procreate." Jim's smiled and looked at Len.
"I'm gonna have a brother."
"How do you know that?" Jim inquired.
"Dad said so." Len said with conviction.
"How are things? Like Vulcan?"
"She's not Enterprise but it's ok."
"KIds picking on you at school." Spock P quirked an eyebrow at that. Of all the things to be concerned about.
"They try to insult me by saying I'm human and emotional. But I am human and that ends that." He smiled. "They are very curious about emotion and I have friends."
"That's good." Kirk looked to Spock P. Spock P drove up to a nice looking villa.
"He is doing very well in his studies. Extremely well in the sciences. Especially medicine." Jim quirked an eyebrow at that.
"I like medicine." Guess some things never change. They all got out and proceeded to the villa. On the steps is a Vulcan girl waiting patiently.
"Saavik, we're home." Len bounced happily up the steps. Kirk smiled as the two went inside the house.
"Saavik?"
"My adopted daughter."
"Some history there?" Jim always knew when the alternate man was trying to make things right. He noticed how his shoulders slumped and the eyes took on a far away appearance.
"Yes, in my universe she was kept at an orphanage because of her status as half Romulan. But proceeded into an extremely fine female. Now here she will get the family she found in me earlier instead of later."
"Len certainly likes her."
"Yes, she can show her emotions around him and he won't make fun of her."
"Is he happy?" Spock P looked to JIm, seeing the loss. Loss he had too. So much.
"Extremely. He looks distant sometimes as if something is missing but he doesn't know what. I have melded with him on several occasions to figure out why."
"And?'"
"He doesn't know. But I believe Saavik is filling that void." Kirk only nodded. "How about your void?"
"Still in it. But I'm surviving. How bout your?" Kirk looked to Spock P till he looked him in the eyes.
"I am surviving. Spock, Uhura, Saavik, and Bones are making the transition easier now."
"He's not Bones." Spock P looked to where the kids were playing with several tribbles. "Yes he is. And he always will be. Especially to me." Spock P looked down sadly.
"What?"
"I miss my friends."
"So do I." He moved so he was in his direct eyesight. "What is it?"
"Permit me." Spock P. raised his hand to initiate a mind meld.
"Yeah." Kirk closed his eyes and let Spock P timeline intersect with his mind. He saw images of the three of them doing great things. Never was their a relationship with his Bones. A relationship between him and multiple women. Spock his trusted friend that he would risk everything for and did. Bones and Spock grieving over his death. Bones final days on Vulcan with his one last true friend. Then memories bounced from Bones saving Spock's life to JIm saving theirs. Emotions flooding over. Love, devotion, caring, friendship. Bones. Love, devotion, T'hy'la. Spock. Kirk stepped back.
"He may not be the man you love but he is the same in all sense of caring and devotion. Don't lose that. Be his friend. Maybe you may regain some aspect of him but the rest I am willing to fill the void."
